Re: The “OTHER” Monsters (Spoilers Ahead)
Dougherty indirectly confirmed that the novel is a canon. on Twitter to a question about Kong from a fan, he answered with a passage from the novel and left a link to the site where you can buy a bookGawdziller1954 wrote:No, he really doesn't. He's only ever described (at least in my copy) to resemble a bull with a mountain on his back. Besides, the novel is separate from the film and is secondary canon.Stump Feet wrote:Methuselah has a turtle-like shell in the novel.Gawdziller1954 wrote:Methuselah also doesn't have a shell BTW, it's more like jointed armor plate.

Re: The “OTHER” Monsters (Spoilers Ahead)
No one's arguing it doesn't but the details in the novel shouldn't be ignored.
You're free to believe whatever you want but the same guy who said Methuselah looked like Rhyhorn also claimed a couple Bigfoots, a cyclops, and a Showa and Final Wars Kamacuras would show up in the artbook. It goes without saying it was all bogus.

It never outright states a turtle-like shell but states a shell none the less.

Re: The “OTHER” Monsters (Spoilers Ahead)
So HN Network is claiming Sargon was the scorpion Titan we saw in the concept art.
If this is true, that clears up his identity.

Re: The “OTHER” Monsters (Spoilers Ahead)
you really wanna trust Hybrid Network? the people who said Pulgasari of all monsters was gonna be in Godzilla vs. Kong? i mean it makes sense it be Sargon but from them of all sources?Stump Feet wrote:So HN Network is claiming Sargon was the scorpion Titan we saw in the concept art.

Re: The “OTHER” Monsters (Spoilers Ahead)
went and searched for it,but i think the news is to new. neither Wikizilla or Gojipedia has picked up on it yet. plenty of reports from people who've seen the film itself (one guy who claims to have seen Amhuluk has also said he's seen the film nine seperate times).Stump Feet wrote:Source?tyrantgoji wrote:so aparrently,we missed a titan!

Re: The “OTHER” Monsters (Spoilers Ahead)
well here's the guy who said he saw the film nine times,made a drawing of what he thinks Amhuluk may look like. https://www.deviantart.com/bozzerkazooe ... -806843228 scroll down to find his comment on it.Stump Feet wrote:Im confused, so what's your source? Links would be appreciated
here's two quotes from a guy on Wikizilla who claims to have seen it: I just got the movie via youtube movies and apparently, a Titan was missed.
Outpost 66-Titanus Amhuluk.
Amhuluk is located in the Manpupuner Rock Formations,Russia.
Abaddon is in Mexico not Sargon.
so that makes two people who claim to have seen it. i doubt there the same person.

Just a week ago you were giving me flak for using HybridNetwork as a source and now here you are trusting the word of two random blokes on the web

The mammoth has one of the most uncreative monster designs i've ever seen. Literally just a giant mammoth.
They couldn't have designed any cool creatures like pacific rim?
Hope Kong kills that fuzzy elephant.

Re: The “OTHER” Monsters (Spoilers Ahead)
Um...what? Behemoths not just a giant mammoth,he's based more off sloths and gorillas with an elephant trunk. it's even confirmed in universe that he's a sloth!Destoroyah of Worlds wrote:The mammoth has one of the most uncreative monster designs i've ever seen. Literally just a giant mammoth.

yes earlier concepts had him as just a mammoth with more tusk and such but the concept we got is not that.

Re: The “OTHER” Monsters (Spoilers Ahead)
Have you actually watched King Of The Monsters by any chance? I know he's not featured very much and his sequences are short but what we do see of him in no way resembled an elephant, it looked like a giant ape with tusks...Destoroyah of Worlds wrote:The mammoth has one of the most uncreative monster designs i've ever seen.
