A study of the Muto

Larger female is consistent with many animal species, especially insects, but others too.  Agree they were worthy adversaries but to bring them back you've gotta bring something else new to the table.  Maybe  a larger, sentient "Queen" type--with something far more insidious in store for earth and mankind.

Dunno, it was a decent idea, but I'd like the next movie to do something new and unexpected...

That's mostly accurate apart from "hokmuto" and "femuto", but other than that it's a very thorough insight into these phenomenal monstrosities!

in many species the female is larger than the male: Hyenas, birds of prey, spiders, and anglerfish (the most extreme example. it's crazy, look it up). However, the way they behaved in the movie reminded me in a way of a species of fish called a snake head. To defend their young, the male swims around close to the brood while the much larger female patrols the outer peremeter. It's a kind of specialization of the sexes to fulfill different roles in perpetuating the species. In the case of the Mutos it could be that the male acts first to repel a threat to the nest but if he has trouble the female is more than capable of dealing with the intruder.

I'd like the guy from the comic con footage to appear. But anything along the line of the Mutos would rock. They hinted at an entire world overrun with monster in the ancient past. Let's see some more of them!

why do the mutos have an EMP ability? electronics weren't around millions of years ago.

@ZillaForLife

The only reason I can think of, which is very farfetched or just plain outragious, is that back in their prehistoric era, there are a lot of organisms that feed on radiation and as a result had different abilities to attack/defend themselves. It may be possible that there are monsters with similar atomic breath or the like. MUTO's may have developed their EMP ability in order to counter or prevent other predator/attackers from using special abilities by nullifying it. Perhaps, similar to how it destroys electronics, it shuts down or incapacitates organs.

Actually the EMP is a bit easier to explain than that. Nucear energy when realesedhas a natural EMP that goes out, so Im gonna say that the way they pound thhe ground is a sign of dominance and is used to frighten smaller creatures and it takes an amount of energy to have that strength,so the glow and EMP are just a form of exhaust. A convenient side effect.

Or maybe the emp attack was to stop certain kaiju's attacks like King Ghidora's gravity beams. Also the Muto's wouldn't need to bring radiation to the nest. The kaiju just fed off the radiation or i guess ate the other kaiju.

Well, MECHA RODAN, I don't know... Godzilla wasn't exactally eating the MUTOs. I like to thing more along the lines that they ate IT... XD. And Muto where label as being parasitic in nature in the movie, laying the eggs in a creature rather thanmaking a nest. Perhaps the ristricted access to a lesser Kaiju to inject the eggs into. Yah know, like Komebas or Maguma or Gezora even...
