His name is King Ghidorah.
Haha yeah I know that was a joke, just cause obviously he’s the most anticipated monster for most users here it seems
I honestly won't be surprised if GA get the monsters names mixed up, saying Rodan is the big bad. :roll:

I’m waiting for the YouTube video titled “NEW MONSTERVERSE TITANS REVEALED”, with a thumbnail that has the two snap shots of the two frames with big bold yellow letters saying,”JET JAGUAR???” And “GABARA?” With some big arrows pointing at the two images.

What's sad is there's some YT channels who would genuinely do that...

One of my issues with the more modern films (lets say GMK onward) is that there seems to be an over reliance towards bringing the big names back and not focusing as much on creating new monsters. I know not everyone liked them, but jeez, I went nuts for the MUTOs. They were well executed and hey, NEW MONSTERS! Gareth Edwards added to the mythos rather than recycling it. Thanks for that!

BUT, if we do get some familiar faces in cameo roles...and one of them is Anguiras...I might explode right there in the theater in a fit of joy, lol.
The last new monster that I really liked was Monster X. I'm going to guess that the two new monsters in the trailer are probably a centipede and a turtle similar to Kamoebas.
I'd be down for that. And YES, I found more people who love the MUTOs! Yay for self-affirmation supporting new kaiju!

Honestly I would prefer more original kaiju than getting more Toho kaiju. The franchise honestly need another large ambulance of new kaiju considering past the Showa era, there is only 4 new kaiju in the Heisei and only 3 in the Millennium.

And I thought both the Mutos and Skullcrawlers have great designs. The Mutos truly are the “UFO” of kaiju, their design have a mix of arthropod, reptilian and even mammalian. Plus the Male Muto resemblances to a stealth bomber is pretty clever.
The Skullcrawlers fit in with that whole “forest spirts/gods” Princess Mononoke like theme Vogt had for the inhabitants of Skull Island. They look like how evil spirit are portray in Eastern media, white faces with dark bodies. Even them being legless make them look like they have a “ghost tail”.

So I’m excited to see what Dougherty comes up with the design considering I love the creature designs in Krampus. The arachnid like kaiju and the “living mountain” already have my attention.

Some ass jockey decided to not crop dust the crowd, dude let off some straight napalm and cleared a 20 ft radius and didn’t flinch, he just moved up closer. I prayed Sandra wouldn’t catch a whiff, talk about Endgame....just gross.

I'm actually of the opposite. I'd prefer to see Toho kaiju here in the MonsterVerse and then have Toho's new cinematic universe come up with some new ones. I feel like Toho's getting to comfortable with their big names, I'd like to see a new Orga or Destoroyah-type character from them.

I figured that was a Ghidorah's head coming up from the bottom of the screen with it's mouth open.

Yeah that's def Ghidorah's head. Few seconds before the screenshot you can see an outline of the head itself, and it looks pretty much exactly like what we saw of Ghidorah so far.

Hence why I didn't say "no way bruh that iS DEFINITELY GHIDORAHS HEAD". I said I'm pretty sure. So, yes, it could still be something else.

Since I can't make it out myself, could you maybe describe what the mouth shape looks like? Does this thing sport a scorpion/spider-like mouth, are is this creature something else all together cause I really hope it's not just a big ass scorpion.
Sorry, my crops were pretty shit, haven't gotten used to Gyazo's GIF feature yet.

I tried outlining the mouth in Photoshop:

Image

In the trailer it moves in kind of a curve, almost like the head part is sitting up. The mouth looks sort of circular, definitely not like that of a normal scorpion. Almost reminds me of the Meganulon from Megaguirus.

In case the outline doesn't help, I also drew what I think I'm seeing (obviously not what the creature will look like):

Sorry if these aren't much help.
Well if you look at the poster for The Black Scorpion...

So if I'm getting this right, Scorpion, one of Spider-Man's famous bad guys is gonna be in this one?
And now mountains can sprout legs and can walk?

This is gonna be a hellava moving picture.

I do not think there's a snowball's chance in hell it's a Toho kaiju. I hope I'm wrong but I just don't see Legendary spending a crap ton of money on the rights for Kaiju who only appear briefly or in cameos.

Well Mac Gargan did appear in Homecoming so it only makes sense that he would become the Scorpion eventually. Pretty odd that they chose to do it in a Godzilla movie and not a Spider-Man movie, but hey, the Lord works in mysterious ways.

You are dead right, but a lot of fans around here absolutely refuse to believe that Legendary would create their own monsters in favor of dropping millions of dollars for 15 seconds of screen time, while (probably) producing no toys, apparel, or any source of income on that monster. They are a loss leader.

Although I’m also leaning towards original monsters, there’s a chance Legendary would have paid for Toho monsters if they are intended to carry over into GvK.
