Is Godzilla an Avenger?

After thinking long and hard on anything I might have missed regarding whats confirmed to be in the new film I suddenly realized something about Godzilla's life cycle. The Godzilla we see in the movie is not the first of his kind, he was born from what I can only assume is a now deceased Godzilla, right? So just like past Godzilla movies featuring the king and Jr. are we dealing with Gareth Edwards version of Godzilla Jr. now mature? If so, suddenly the idea of Godzilla actively seeking out the Muto makes sense. Maybe he's hellbent on killing them. Think about it. In the animal kingdom natural predators do attempt to kill their prey and the prey, if capable will defend themselves, but I doubt Godzilla or the Muto were any different from that. If they came into contact with each other a battle would no doubt ensue, but a part from that I don't think they actively saught each other out regularly. Now I could be completely wrong about this but I just have this feeling, from what I've seen in the WC footage, interviews, and past films if Godzilla's life cycle is the same as his Japanese predecessors, that the king is out for revenge for what happened to his parent. So what do you all think? Is Godzilla an avenger, or am I getting too hyped thinking about this damn movie!?

@SOMETHING REAL - I was begining to wonder when my wing-man would return, or wing-girl in this case lol :) But yes, that is, more or less, the fact of the matter put together in a well phrased nutshell my lady. What took you?

my head hurts from this. KAGE432- My opinion is that he isnt out to avenge his parent(s). I think it is just instinct. Destroy the enemy before they destroy you. Godzilla may be capable of vengence, i dont know, i havent seen the movie but i just think its instinct.

ZILLAFORLIFE - Until we see the film, your theory is as valid as anyone else's. The fact that you're willing to listen to and consider those of others is extremely mature and considerate of you. :)

I would take your argument seriously if we weren't talking about a 350 foot, atomic ray breathing dinosaur who happens to stand the test of time. You want to throw scientific facts around Godzilla lol. I study animal behavior for a living. What You're saying is right on, but I don't think you understand that you simply cannot apply these rules to a being such as Godzilla. He is both complex and simple at the same time.

By 'finish' I literally mean finishing off his enemy, not a mission he was morally sent out on.

You're saying Godzilla cannot posses complex emotions yet you're willing to theorize that he acts out of vengance.

@GTBETTA35 - Um, what? When did I ever say he can't feel complex emotions? That was you're claim, not mine. Reread the post. And I would take your response seriously if it wasn't loaded with ignorance. Godzilla is a sci fi monster but science fiction itself commonly uses imaginitive elements that are largely possible within scientifically established or scientifically postulated physical laws. What that means for you're argument GTBETTA is that this 350 foot atomic ray breathing dinosaur is still a dinosaur and will follow the logic that makes sense in the universe that Gareth has created that he HIMSELF has said will be realistic and grounded. Why else give Godzilla gills? Why give him webbed hands? Why try and make a story that makes sense in a fictional universe? Well, its because sci fi does not auto-translate into nothing here should be taken seriously.

I'm a writer and I too have built my own universe from the ground up but guess what? It still follows rules and logic so that it makes sense to my auidence or else they wouldn't even buy that it works in my established universe. If even that explanation escapes you then we're finished here. I've already spent more time explaining simple knowledge to you than I should have.
