edit: i now see instinctive added the 2nd one to the previous post, please CLOSE this thread.

It is now clear that the "foot" shown on the other teasers is actually a hand.

You better trademark that before someone else!

Interesting with that one scene...are the troops/scientists surrounding the MUTO's shell/egg thing (??) before it actually emerges?

I like it. Really shows the size of the big G here.

@Instinctive Gigan No kidding! I missed so much over there and we just got to see a partial scene of it! Well now I am satisfied, no more needs to watch more trailer or tv spots. I have had my fill. I don't want the movie to be spoiled anymore than what it already is. 

Holy crap there's another one, I'm gonna edit this a bit.

geezus christ, those feet arefucken HUGE! you know what they say...

lurker here. (been reading this site for a while. Even talked a bit about the mutos on my blog. So i thought i'd finally get in the ring with the rest of ya)

I hope he gets a run for his money. He is the King of the Monsters and all, but watching him plow through all comers without batting an eye would be boring and get repetive very fast. Would Pacific Rim have been such a fun ride if defeating the kaiju was as easy and routine as the first bout with Knifehead made it look? Having characters and creatures who actually have to fight for their lives makes for entertaining and interesting cinema. After all, it would mean we get to cheer for them when they finally prevail!

Now against the military obviously. As THEGMAN123 pointed out, it apears like our conventional weapons have some effect, though it looks to be more like a minor inconvienance. So naturally Godzilla vs the army would get dull fast. Thankfully he's not against just the army. We have the mutos. What kind of  a threat they will pose is currently up for debate. They don't look like anything that could take Godzilla head on (even if Godzilla was having an off day). Many have suggested the mutos may have a parasitice relationship to Godzilla. Parasites may not be a glamorous as predators, but nature shows us that while they may not win any straight up fights, parasites can can bring even the mightiest creatures low. As with so much about this movie, time will tell what kinda fights were gonna get.

You my good sir, are a forum legend. You just showed me what I missed waiting in the Hall H line at Comic Con. I sincerely thank you for that. :)

I feel like this should be in the merchandising thread. 

Heck the answer to your question/pictures of the figures are probably already in there. You wouldn't even have to post, you could just browse and find the information you're looking for.

Durpoo4-Matrix and the Star War prequels were made in the late 90's and both had  two sequels. As did Star Trek. Your point about 90's movies not having sequels does not stand.

Sure, there are movies that don't translate into sequels. You don't see for example "English Patient III or IV" or "Shawshank Redemption 8". That is a question of movie genre. 

But Godzilla by contrast should not have any problems with sequels.

GMAN2887-Sure it is, rather than roll your eyes, maybe you can offer a better reason (if there is one)?

I recently bougth them, the difference is that both Godzillas are sculpted in a different style, the damaged one is missing a few scales here and there.  The one that comes with the eight-legged Muto has a smaller head and has the tail curled up.  Other than those differences, they're pretty much the same.

cool

Iam gonna Get all the Godzilla Neca toys just 2 of all the Inches

Well, it seems from the looks of recent TV spots that Godzilla can be visibly affected by our weapons, though I highly doubt they'll even leave a scratch. More like a fly that keeps touching you, and you feel it and it's really annoying, with bigger weapons maybe getting a flinch reaction like a mosquito bite that still doesn't show any real damage done. I can only see some huge Muto creature getting in some good hits that'll put the king on edge.

Well I for one PREFER a mobile Godzilla. I don't want some lumbering Heisei glacier.

That being said, the reason why the shot looks 'weird' or 'fast' is probably because two things are moving at the same time in the opposite direction.

Like Godzilla is moving left due to the missiles, while the camera is simultaneously moving on the bus which is heading right. 

ehem i posted an old theory about the mutos evolving a long time ago and the sinkhole subject sadly i can't find it anymore well you know what they say great minds think alike

good speculation though :)

We finally see a better pic of godzilla but am I the only one who wants to see all of the mutos I am so anxious to see this movie

Thats Awesome

@JUNKERDE

That's qutie the talent you have there!

Great work!

it's a teaser spot folks, reserve judgement until the 16th :O) we shall not be disappointed.

Nice!

LOL Thanks everybody and sorry for the damages!

Y'know AndyGod i got to agree with you. Something just seems funny about that shot. Seems to fast for a creature that size. Almost a choppy kind of effect. It just doesn't look right to me.

A lot of people seem to be confusing "an ancient enemy" with the word "predator." The likelihood of Godzilla being prey to the Muto's is very small.

However, as for the original question about the opposition Godzilla faces, here are my thoughts:

Godzilla will almost ceratinly face heavy military opposition. The reason I say this isn't because of the TV spots, it's simply because one of our main human protagonists is a soldier. If he wasn't a soldier I would say the military probably wouldn't play in as much, but since he's a soldier there is likely to be A LOT of military opposition.

I'm thinking that the Muto's won't fight with Godzilla nearly as much as everyone seems to think. (Though I am almost hoping I'm dead wrong on that) When he does fight them, it's either going to be a quick battle, or (for Godzilla at least) an annoyingly long one.

All in all, I doubt that Godzilla will ultimately face that much heavy opposition to the point where he doesn't appear to be the King of the Monsters we know and love. I save that weakling stuff for Zilla and the Godzilla animated series where he was taken down by a lot of smaller creatures including some pathetic mutant rats. I mean come on. Rats?

For those playing the home game, "an ancient enemy" doens't confirm anything regarding whether or not Godzilla was predator, prey, or simply a rival.

As far as I'm concerned, a creature like the flying Muto that we've been seeing in the trailers could not likely prey on Godzilla. The more likely scenario is that it's just a territorial threat more so than a survival threat. Given Godzilla's size, shape, and abilties, the chances that a single flying Muto type creature could prey on him is highly unlikely. You can argue that smaller animals prey on larger ones, as it's a valid statement, but in Godzilla's case I can't see that happening.

I think the "ancient enemy" simply means that the Muto will be a threat to Godzilla's territory more so than his survival.

@Diegoruiz, TMI man, TMI.

I feel godzilla was moving a bit too fast on that last scene, doesnt seem all that realistic in my opinion. Looks more like 1998 crap...

Well, I doubt that the military will try to fight Godzilla at all, since they already tried and failed to kill him wth nuclear weapons in 1954 (unless, maybe, they thought that it did kill him?). I am very confused about how the Mutos will oppose him, since all information seems to indicate that the only monsters other than Godzilla will be one Hokmuto and one winged Muto, which are tiny compared to Godzilla, yet they will be a serious threat to Godzilla's life. These are the only possibilities I could think of:

1.) They will be able to seriously harm Godzilla despite their small size, which would make Godzilla seem like a wimp and not the King of the Monsters.

2.) The Hokmuto is only a juvenile in the Honolulu airport scene and the Mutos are closer to Godzilla's size by the end of the movie.

3.) There will be a lot more than two Mutos.

4.) The monster that threatens his survival and forces him to reappear is something separate from the Mutos.

Awesome!
