Should Maddie be the Monsterverse’s new lead?
After seeing KoTM I think Maddie being a continuing presence will be good for the MV. The actress did quite good with her and her story arc was one of my favorite parts of KoTM. Seeing her character grow up throughout the MV would be swell.
Anyone else agree here?

Re: Should Maddie be the Monsterverse’s new lead?
For the time yes, but not forever though. Millie's eventually gonna want a break from these movies and maybe move on to other projects so i feel like a new lead is gonna have to be introduced.

I think her story will be done after GvsKong.

On s scale of 1 to 10, this idea is clearly an Eleven.

Re: Should Maddie be the Monsterverse’s new lead?
Millie did a fantastic job with her role and really brought the emotion to her character. I think Madison is also relatable to a lot of people who's parents are separated and have gone through rough times with the loss of a loved one, especially people around my age or younger where the former is unfortunately more common.
I'd say she'd be a good lead if MBB was up for it.

I'm against it honestly we need new characters and not stick was the the same ones but that aside I do long forward to seeing her and Mark's story continue at least in GvK

She’s a fine actor and did fine, but her character is basically a cardboard box. Better than Brody, but they seriously need to improve her character and give it something else in the future.

Please no! Although I suppose she can't be any worse than any of the other generic characters though.

She'll be bullied for her mother being the reason for almost causing a mass extinction.
If you guys think that's generic, welp.

Re: Should Maddie be the Monsterverse’s new lead?
New for Godzilla, but in a world of fiction spanding upon Millennia i'm sure it's been done. And we don't know if this is confirmed yet so we don't even know if it will really happen._JNavs_ wrote:She'll be bullied for her mother being the reason for almost causing a mass extinction.

If that actually becomes the case then I would actually prefer a generic human roster than a high school drama mixed with a kaiju movie._JNavs_ wrote:She'll be bullied for her mother being the reason for almost causing a mass extinction.

Re: Should Maddie be the Monsterverse’s new lead?
Except with the power of film, that entire aspect can be limited down to a quarter of the first act, in which case, it'd work perfectly fine.Omegazilla wrote:If that actually becomes the case then I would actually prefer a generic human roster than a high school drama mixed with a kaiju movie._JNavs_ wrote:She'll be bullied for her mother being the reason for almost causing a mass extinction.

Re: Should Maddie be the Monsterverse’s new lead?
She was less interesting than Ford Brody. There's more emotion to the performance, but the character is just a girl who happens to be in the middle of all the trouble. As long as they keep things interesting and well written, I don't mind.
I'd change my username if I had the chance. It's a typo. It's supposed to be "66," and it's a very unfortunate thing to have on my account. Please help.

Re: Should Maddie be the Monsterverse’s new lead?
As long as it’s well written, any kind of drama can be compelling and emotional. Maddie being bullied and outcast by her fellow classmates for her mother being a terrorist could be very empathetic and sad, if written well; it doesn’t really matter how cliché nor generic it is in the realm of filmmaking when most story beats are nowadays.
Plus, as long as it doesn’t overstay its welcome, I don’t see the problem. Millie is a good actress, so she of all people should be able to sell teenage drama well.
