Will we see Mothra in the inevitable "Godzilla" sequel? Despite director Gareth Edwards' apparent distaste for post-credit scenes, KStarsDrama, via JapNation AniManga, reports that a post-credits scene featuring Godzilla's biggest rival was shown in select Asian countries.
The site claims that in the scene, Mothra commands an army of fellow MUTOs (Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organisms) and generates a hurricane with its wings.
If Mothra does indeed appear in a future "Godzilla" movie, it'll be interesting to see how Edwards (or whomever else might end up helming the franchise) tackles the beast. It might be difficult to make the monster — which is literally a giant moth — scary and not cheesy or goofy.
Granted, the creature does have some terrifying powers, including spraying silk, dropping poison, and metamorphosing. KStarsDrama also points out that Godzilla has never been able to defeat Mothra on his own, so if we do have a Mothra-centric movie, Godzilla will most likely need the help of other Kaiju.
Maybe an appearance by Mothra will appease Japanese viewers who aren't impressed by previews of the American reboot.
“American Godzilla is just a giant iguana freaking out,” Mudai Nozaki told the Associated Press. Meanwhile, Godzilla enthusiast Kazuya Haraguchi lamented, "I hope the day will come when a Japanese director can make a Godzilla movie again for the world.”
Others, meanwhile, feel our new Godzilla is too "fat."
"That's what happens when all you do is eat and lay around," one person commented on a trailer for the film.
Edwards, for his part, isn't taking the criticisms too seriously.
"I feel really bad because I know Godzilla reads the forums," he told UrbanDaily. "He’s already got an image complex and he’s a really lonely guy. If people want to see him in a sequel, we need to learn to accept him the way he is. Don’t be too critical."

MemberMothra LarvaeMay-18-2014 11:39 AMNo. Please no. Mothra being related to the MUTO can only means she is a mutation without any connections to the original character. Gareth did Godzilla so well, dont ruin Mothra instead.
Are we sure it wasnt just a creature that looked like Mothra? If its even real?

MemberBaragonMay-18-2014 12:11 PMI call BS on that supposed after credit scene. It makes no, absolutely zero, sense to show a credit scene to only half your audience. Sounds a lot like someone's trying to do another rumor like the King Kong vs. Godzilla dual ending rumor.

MemberMothra LarvaeMay-18-2014 12:20 PMBS and for the sequel i hope its more mutos or other prehisotric massive beasts under the sea who were awakend by the recent events. 95% of the worlds oceans are unexplored, so easy to explain.

MemberMothra LarvaeMay-18-2014 12:27 PMIt would be cool if there was a MUTO version of King Ghidorah!

MemberMothra LarvaeJun-05-2014 7:37 AMThere is no post credits scene, end of. It's a fan-boy story that's been doing the rounds but is total and utter bunk. File alongside "the Mothra faireys are in the film" as stuff people will be willing to believe in the fact of facts to the contrary.
There is no end credit scene. Full. Stop.

MemberMothra LarvaeJun-05-2014 8:56 AMThere's no end credit scene. That sites that reported it have repeatedly told false stuff. I'd rather trust the National Enquirer.

Umm, limme try to correct that: Godzilla 2001, Godzilla 2003.
Yes Godzilla has beaten Mothra on his own, and Mothra even had ALLIES??? King Ghidorah and Kiryu? Wow what a terrible source to listen to.
