Best MonsterVerse Monster in a Leading Role

Post by tbeasley »

Which of the primary monsters from the MonsterVerse are your favorites? Which monsters (Toho or otherwise) would you like to see next?

Your poll options are -

- Godzilla
- MUTO (male)
- MUTO (female)
- King Kong
- Skullcrawlers
- Skull Devil
- Mothra
- Rodan
- King Ghidorah
- Mechagodzilla

If we see more Toho monsters, I feel Legendary will continue playing it safe and use recognizable Showa era names. Some kind of Minilla/Godzilla Junior type character, Gigan and Hedorah as main villains, Baragon and Anguirus in supporting/cameo roles, etc.

Godzilla is the best one for being a PRESENCE every single time. Mysterious, imposing, powerful, admirable, heroic, etc.
King Kong for his skill, determination & primate appeal. Cool, cute & savage.
Mechagodzilla for being a perfect surprise mutual enemy that Gets-To-Work putting the fists on his enemies. Had a great death.
Female MUTO for being such a size contrast to the male. She was the biggest threat through her pregnancy and when we find out about it it's an instantly troubling reveal. The way she lashed out when the eggs were killed was a tense but understandable reaction. & She got Godzilla to reveal his signature weapon and effective execution methods.

Kong easily. Everytime we see him in a MV movie it's clear he's the main character unfortunately Godzilla feels more like a plot point in comparison.
