Good Morning Evening and Night Ladies & Gents!

Im back! (nobody cares!)

and im here t ask you: what of Gidorahs, mothras and rodans origins in the new film?

Will Gidorah still be a mighty space dragon?

Will Mothra still be the mystical guradian of the faries?

Is Rodan still a pre-historic flying Repile?

Leave you thoughts in the comments below!

Gareth changed his orgin to make him MORE realistic. Your right godzilla is not realistic. But he was trying to keep it to source Material while at the same time trying to keep it realistic. I really wish Gareth had a account on here and he would tell you the same thing. Space creatures make a film super sci-fed. Let him live and grow on earth and not be a space creature while doing my orgin at the same time would make it more realistic.

The king of the monsters. Godzilla is not a reptile. If anything he is a amphibian! Reptiles dont breathe underwater and dont have gills! Thats a fatal flaw in your arguement!

Good grief.

Just because space is involved doesn't undermine the 'realistic" aspects as much as you say. I'd say keep space, but not make it as big of an issue. And why is your way so much more realistic? If anything, it's a little bit less realistic, because mutations like that are hardly able to live at all. However, that's an issue on Earth. For all we know, having three heads is normal in an alien enviornment.

I don't see what your issue with space is. I think space would actually be more realistic, because then you have room to experiment with concepts that seem too much for even Earth, such as the aformentioned three heads. Honestly, why can't we have a combination of origins? Initially evolves in space to get the weird features, comes to Earth by way of meteor travel, and then finds the resources of Earth to be useful to further evolve.

Godzilla is and always has been a type of reptile. A prehistoric amhibious reptile in this case, but still a reptile.

I think having Ghidorah coming to Earth in meteor form during Godzilla's time and slumbering works best, as well as him being Godzilla's absolute adversary. Godzilla keeps balance, and Ghidorah disrupts it. His existence should be linked to various dragon sightings. Also, mutation is just a silly idea. Size doesn't really equate to believability, but mutation is just too Sci-fi for the masses, and me.

Godzilla looks more like a amphibian then a reptile. This is a reptile

He looks the most like a croodile if anything reptillian. Godzilla the original looks like a dragon if anything! Not a reptile. If we are using legendarygoji no reptile has gillis

 Understand and i would like some proof of Godzilla being a type of reptile? where is this from! 

 

 

Good grief.

Well, I have my own theory. If Godzilla is so old, isn't it possible that perhaps he's a completely uniquely evolved creature? Maybe his species evolved from fish, into amphibian-like creatures, into reptilian-esque creatures we see now, but never lost the gills.

Besides, 2014 is the only movie so far where Godzilla has had gills. In the Heisei series, they explicitly showed that Godzilla was a kind of dinosaur, which is a reptile.

High Flyers,
I think you're assuming what you find realistic and dark, (which they never said it was supposed to be as dark as The Dark Knight trilogy. Ever.) or what you percieved as realisitic, can't include the alien origin.

The fact is the Heisei origin of King Ghidorah is light years more ludicrous than King Ghidorah's space origin. The reason his space origin still works is because the Showa series never explains how he was created. He's kept ambiguous and as a result his origin is far creepier because no one knows where he came from, how he was created or why he's on Earth. He was simply a mindless killing machine. Maintaining that level of vagary around an insane monster would instill a sort of supremecy about his on-screen presence which would make an enemy not even Godzilla understands.

The idea, everyone, isn't to make something realistic. It's to make something effective for the story. How you write it affects the levels of realism. (Besides, King Ghidorah's Showa origin has always been the best.)

Totally sums up, reinforces, and expands on my argument.

Actually like some people said here I don't think there is any easy way to make a giant three headed dragon realistic it just has to be good not realistic.

When the king becomes the king. He is a dragon more then a reptile! Godzilla is a amphibian! Thats how he can live underwater! If he was a reptile he would drown himself!

Good grief.

Godzilla Is King,
There we go! Exactly. Something being good does not equal being realistic. And after seeing the first movie I think King Ghidorah's vague space origin would fit fine.

This isn't a discussion about whether or not Godzilla is a reptile, so I will end this debate here. It is well-known that Godzilla is and always has been a reptile. Yes, he can breathe underwater and in the new movie he has gills, making him amphibious. Amphibious, not an amphibian.

Well then Godzilla is reptillian, not a reptile by that logic.

Good grief.

japanese godzilla is a reptile, but legendary goji is nither

The best origin for ghidorah is to scarp the nobelization and awakening and serisawas and monarchs theoreyh, say that king ghidorah arrived on earth in a metor, and he wahs the reason the radiation levels in the earth droped wahs becasue ghidorah absorved many of the radiation and then proceded to kill many of the monsters of the past including countles godzillas, leaving only one left that traveled deep in the ocean to heeal itsef, the ones that ghidorah didn't kiled ither died or whent to hivernation, ghidorah after absorving the radiation turned into stone and slept for years
