In all honesty, at least judging from that toy Muto image, I don't see that much of a resemblance between the Cloverfield monster and the Muto design, other than the general shape and possibly one or two features (such as the small pair of arms near the legs).
While we're listing "uninspired" monsters, let's not forget some of these...
Kumonga, a giant spider.
Manda, a Chinese dragon (or a snake, in Destroy All Monsters)
Gorosaurus, some kind of Therapod dinosaur
Gezora, a land-walking octopus/squid
and last but definitely least, Varan, a mutated Tuatara that can glide
Just to clarify, I actually have nothing against the Kaiju I just listed above (in fact, some of them I really like, such as Gorosaurus and Varan).
My problem isn't that I think the MUTO is uninspired. They could have made something that looked exactly like an old Toho monster and that wouldn't have bothered me in the slightest bit, or even a non-Toho monster.
No, my issue is that (aboslutely no offense to you guys), that I really don't like Cloverfield, so the fact that they strongly resemble each other annoys be a bit. I don't dislike the MONSTER from the movie as much as I just REALLY DON'T LIKE THE MOVIE, which is why I'm not having a fit about it or anything. Just hoping we'll see at least ONE other monster that doesn't look like the one we've already seen.
That said, I LOVE the MUTO design.
Cloverfield is the movie that got me into the daikaiju genre, so it'll always have a special place in my heart. (That sounds cheesy, but it's true!)
Yes, I think it'll be cool to see how the 8-legged one moves with all those legs, especially. Should have some sweet attacks.
@Zillaforlife
That's what I want to believe. I want to believe that there's the train MUTO along with the one in the first trailer and the MUTOs we know about. I just hope at some point we get something that points to at least one of these monsters being in the movie, because as I said, I like the MUTO design but I wanted there to be at least one monster different from it.
@Megaguirus
Finally, another Cloverfield fan on this site!
Yeah, I'm loving the designs of the Mutos. I can't wait to see their movements, abilities, and personalities! :)
@Junkerde
I support you if you're trying to end this. That's what I want, whether or not you believe it. To clarify, I was actually talking about when you said he was making a fool of himself, etc etc. I just brought up his apology to prove that he was trying to do the right thing. I HAD looked with my eyes. You just misunderstood me.
Let me just say that I didn't intend to bring this up again, my intention was to bring to your attention that he apologized and you should try to make up. That's it. I wasn't even trying to be insulting to you.
Last of all, I am ending this now. So let me tell you Junkerde, I had no intentions to insult or be rude to you in any way. I'm sorry if it sounded that way. You're usually a good Godzilla member as you've brought us the pictures for the toys and everything, so I don't mean to get in conflict with you. Like you said, let's move on from this point and have a friendly discussion. :)
Similarly, some people might claim that Angy is just a giant Ankylosaurus or that King Caesar is just a huge shisa / foo dog.
Although I guess I'd have preferred MUTO designs that stun me by not reminding me of anything I've ever seen before, I still think the designs we've seen so far look pretty sweet. Maybe that's because I'm a huge fan of Cloverfield, but hey.
I can't wait to see how the MUTO hooves look on the big screen. A hooved kaiju is pretty original, actually.
(Also, the 'Battra = emo Mothra' thing made me laugh.)
What happened to the multi legged millipede from the first trailer? If he's still in it that makes 3 and the thing that attacks the train, thats grey so in maybe be a different monster to the leaked flying MUTO.
DONT LOCK THE THREAD WE ARE MAKING PROGRESS HERE PEOPLE, JUST WATCH THE LINKS IVE POSTED AND WE CAN START A HEALTHY DEBATE!!
Anything over 2h20mins and I'll be very happy.
Actually to tell you the truth, I don't care if he's in it at all, I think it would be cool, but I could care less if he wasn't, I'm just showing everyone what I found. i was seeing on other posts people that were suggesting Rodan was in the movie were getting crushed by people, so I wanted to help play devils advocate with something alittle more than speculation.
dino
you were advocating for burying the hatchet, here you are spewing stuff again, he apologized to me, good for him. And CLEARLY I made my post BEFORE he apologized, look with your eyes.
You advocate wanting to move on but you keep bringing it up again, I didn't post anything insulting him after he apologized because I moved on that, , you should move on too, , but since you wanted to bring up this issue AGAIN, i have to clarify. Let's end it here, if you have something to say AGAIN about this, mods might as well lock this thread.
And we move on and live our lives Dino.
It's probably the novelization, looks like it could be quite a thick book. I will be purchasing haha
You got me too, dude. I thought you were talking about the magazine as well. XD
@Anthony
If Rodan DID happen to be in the movie, that would be awesome and I would be thrilled. But if he's not, please don't get too angry with the film. I really want this movie to do well and I don't want to see fans disappointed with it like with the 1998 one.
@Ananasatom
Ooooh! Haha! I feel so stupid! XD
I'll watch those videos as soon as I can, Anthony. Thanks for apologizing to Junkerde. You're doing the right thing.
Junkerde,
I don't care, to be honest. I agreed with you at first because I thought you were using logical reasoning. Now all you're doing is beating this into the ground and causing conflict with Anthony for no reason. He's even trying to make it right. Unlike you, who's not doing anything but fueling the fire.
"The POSTER does NOT get any special treatment if he acts that way even if this is his thread."
I could say the same about you. You're acting just like he was.
Now we all know what gareth edwards rape face looks like!
couldnt resist :P
interesting theory, i would just hope they dont hold something like that till the very end of the movie, i know i want to see the true godzilla as much as possible! maybe, somewhere around the middle with hints being dropped throughout the film.
@DAIKAIJU_DANIELLE No not that book xD The book on the poster at bottom.
THIS is not that far off from the story line of Gojira raids again. The "muto' toy.. looks too (man made) obvious to be an ancient foe... unlike ANGUIRUS... who is an ancient foe of Gojira. My money is on a creature like Anguirus. as well as other monsters. MABEY even a second yet smaller Godzilla. I can't wait.. but I'll have to.
I love a healthy debate as well, but when it spirals into something else it's not worth keeping open.
Keep it up guys. I'm real close to locking this one down.
That's such a great picture! :D
Also, concerning the book, it looks like the recent Empire Magezine to me.
hopefully, as long as the last king kong, which was 2 hours and 53 minutes i belive, theres a lot going on in this movie so i feel that would make sence
I'm sorry I was overly sarcastic to you junkerde .. But watch the videos if you don't think it's right, that's ok just move on. I love a good debate though.
Well, as I said, I didn't only mean evidence, I also meant ideas.
Anyway, yes, that's a good point. Thanks. :)
the novilization maybe
Well lets just put it like this , if when the film comes out it happens that , well ... there is no Rodan , you are gonna be frustrated and probably the movie its going to suck for you and all the people who are trying to convince themselves that Rodan is in it , because you all had all this theorys an hints in your head and hands , and at the end they meant noting ... BUT... if it does happens that Rodan is in the film or was in the film this whole time , and Gareth along with Legendary did a great work hidding the Kaiju, well lets just all be happy that we are gonna get to see , an updated Rodan , BRAND NEW MONSTERS [Mutos] , AND GODZILLA , and all the theorys of Rodan are gonna be right , lets just leave it like this ok? ... move on.
This isn't really "evidence" per say, but the description on the leaked giant Godzilla toy says that Godzilla is driven out of the ocean by an ancient foe that threatens his life. This monster, of course, would have to be aquatic in order to drive Godzilla out of the ocean, and the MUTOs we have seen don't exactly look aquatic, now do they? It seems likely to me that the eight-legged and winged MUTOs will emerge from an underground cave system in the Nevada desert, while another, much more powerful monster will emerge from the ocean later in the film, chasing after Godzilla.
So the answer is in these videos, if anyone has an idea of what it is, post it here and we can discuss!
dinozilla
let's not forget his attitude in his previous posts either, the POSTER does NOT get any special treatment if he acts that way even if this is his thread
/thread
Yea definitely I should have posted my proof before anyways....

This is the trailer discussion at about 8:40 they discuss Rodan... Which with this one video means nothing because it's just speculation..
HOWEVER
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8mt8bsiwqPA
This is after they saw 20 minutes of the movie and the "big surprise scene" they talk about how they are not aloud to mention what it is but they say in their rewind theature (first link) they guessed it right. Now there is not many speculations made in the video, except the Rodan Speculation. i just found that interesting.
Yes it's real, that first clip is the ComiCon trailer. It is the trailer people got to see at last year's ComicCon. That creature shown is the MUTO every one was on about a few weeks back. It's personally my favorite trailer so far.
This is awesome! Amazing work and welcome to the forums! :)
Junkerde, stop. Just because you believe Anthony's opinion is wrong doesn't mean you should attack him for it, just as you wouldn't want to be attacked for YOUR opinions.
Chris, thanks for proving the point. We all have our opinions, and everyone gets their own.
Thank you, Anthony.
I'm sorry that I sounded rude, I just get so tired of people arguing and biting each other's heads off over theories. (Not just talking about you). I'll even edit my last comment.
I really appreciate the fact that you are willing to listen to me, even if you still believe Rodan is in the movie. You're right about opinions, just as I pointed out.
Also, would you mind giving me the link? I personally don't believe that Rodan is in the movie, but I'm open-minded and am willing to hear your reasoning.
Just a reminder to everyone heckling people who think Rodan is in the film - stop. Everyone is entitled to a theory and an idea here. None of us have seen the film, so nobody can 100% say yes or no to any of these assumptions. Just because it's severely unlikely does not mean it's a stupid discussion. Remember to attack the topic, not the individual. Thank you.
yeah and I think your opinion is wrong, when Legendary officially announced no toho monsters, you keep makin a fool of yourself every comment! Please go on, Anthony was chosen by god as our messenger to show us the answer! Clearly he's a higher power then legendary, Im getting teary eyed!
