What do you think the “colossal, undiscovered threat” will be in the next movie?

Hey everyone!

One of the most intriguing bits of information that we’ve gotten from the new synopsis for the next MonsterVerse movie is that Godzilla and Kong will team up against a “colossal, undiscovered threat hidden within our world.” What do you think this could mean? If you ask me, it sounds like the new threat will be an original monster that lives in the Hollow Earth that threatens both humanity and the two Titans. Who knows, it might even be that flying Godzilla-like monster that was shown in the GVK artbook.

Hopefully its either Battra (Mothra's evil counterpart) or Desghidorah

The recent Call of Duty: Warzone event, "Operation Monarch" featured cave paintings of the Titans, including one that features Godzilla and a tribe fighting what appears to be a new Titan.

Interestingly, this cave painting was separated from the others, was more hidden away, and was the only "new" Titan featured (the others being Godzilla, Kong, a Hell Hawk, a Warbat, a Skullcrawler, a Rock Critter, and "Doug"), which could suggest that it has some significance. Maybe this Titan has something to do with this new threat. It's probably unlikely that Legendary would reveal the main antagonist of the movie this soon, but maybe there's a chance that this Easter egg is a potential teaser for the future.

@SasquaDash: You bring up a good point! An interesting detail about that monster is that some of it’s dorsal spikes are transparent, which makes me think they could possibly be made out of crystals, and which monster has similar crystals on their back? Just something to think about.

@SasquaDash: Or perhaps the “crystals” on their back could be the way they are due to the heavy amount of Hollow Earth radiation the creature has consumed. Maybe this creature stores the radiations in its dorsal spines?

i think it could be   Biollante, Destroyah, or an Older "Evil" Godzilla.  In a Pre Monsterverse Godzilla Novel  Biollante came from Inside the Earth.  Destroyah doesn't have to be a Creation of the Oxygen Destroyer.   personally id kinda like it to be an Older Godzilla  weve never really seen Godzilla Fight "himself" that wasnt  a Robot in disguise  or a Black hole mutated Space clone.

It almost feels like a combination of Spacegodzilla, Varan, Krystalak and Anguirus.

I've herd some suggestions that it could be a reference to Rokmutul, who was an Anguirus-like monster from an early concept for 2014. It does resemble him somewhat, although the concept design for Rokmutul had six legs (it's possible that they could've have changed it though). I find it really interesting that, out of all the established Titans in the series, the cave painting in the Call of Duty event seems to be an entirely new creature. Maybe this creature could appear in the new movie or the live action TV series. Might be a stretch, but it could be possible.

The whole warzone thing.. It really is just non-canon, i believe COD just wanted to make their own event if the new battle pass or whatever Warzone has will sell well. Considering warzone has been dying its pretty clear that it got canned as an event. Even PUBG had one.

I know. The painting probably doesn't have any significance to the next movie, I just thought it was an interesting detail.

Sorry for the negativity, the new villain will probably be an og one like Destoroyah.

if it is Destoroyah they'll need to upgrade Legendary Godzilla's burning form but many will accuse this movie for being a Godzilla vs Destoroyah remake so they'll probably have to do something else.

Yeah, I feel like, out of all the Toho kaiju, Destoroyah and Gigan are probably the most likely candidates for the MonsterVerse, since they've introduced both the oxygen destroyer and the idea of alien threats in the series.

the many I'm talking about is of coarse are hardcore godzilla fans. How would would you work destoroyah into the story? Burning Godzilla back in Heisei was the result of Godzilla fighting Space Godzilla and was melting down by the time Destoroyah first appears. Burning Godzilla explodes taking out Destoroyah.

Unless of coarse they have Godzilla gain a new power to defeat Destoroyah I think most fans would/would not want Godzilla to enter his burning form

course* + "How would you work Destoroyah in the story" is a lazy question, the same way all the villains are. Make it so that all the damage and other stuff caused a mess tainting crustaceans and making them into Destoroyah. It's that easy, even SpaceGodzilla can be an option.

Oh and the super powers thing is easy just give him a dose of nuke and boom he has a new super power called "plot armor".

"Burning Godzilla back in Heisei was the result of Godzilla fighting Space Godzilla"

No it was not.

Well that's how I interpreted the events maybe because I watched the English dub and they got it wrong or that I only watched through the Heisei series once so the detailed parts of the plots are not fully itched into my memory

Godzilla's burning form in Godzilla vs. Destoroyah, was as a result of Birth Island being destroyed in a nuclear explosion. Exposure to high amounts of radiation and energy from the explosion caused him to go into a supercharged form that proved to be too much for him. He wasn't able to expel the excess energy (like he was able to in King of the Monsters) which eventually caused him to meltdown. The extra energy that Rodan transferred to Godzilla in Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla II may have also played a role in it as well.

The uranium deposits in Birth Island ignited, sinking it in the film's opening. It mutated both Godzilla and Little Godzilla into the forms seen in Godzilla vs. Destoroyah. The meeting with the UNGCC confirms all of this immediately following the Hong Kong attack.

Interpretations are super dumb at many times my man. Some things show what they wanna show yet stupid common interpretations come and ruin it.

Please also only watch the japanese dub because some things can be lost in translation.

Never got why the media uses URANIUM when the actual nuclear explosion material is ENRICHED URANIUM

And considering Japan got their karma with the two nuclear bombs dropped on them they should know what the thing that made their MONSTER a HUGE MONSTER was made out of

HinikunaGoji,
While the English dub is a bit confusing, there's no line in it that mentions SpaceGodzilla.

I just thought of something. What if the main antagonist for the film is a reimagined version of the Gryphon from the unmade 1994 Tristar Godzilla film? One of the writers of that script is working on the new film and since the 1994 movie was never made, the Gryphon probably isn't copyrighted and owned by Tristar, so the concept for it could be used in a future film. Probably unlikely, but it would be interesting if they went in that direction.

Maybebut wasn't part of Gryphon incorporated by the MUTO? I think I read that on Tv Tropes but I could be wrong.

The MUTOs had some similarities in their role, being the main threat of the movie with Godzilla being an Earth defender, but aside from that they were very different from the Gryphon. The Gryphon started out as an extraterrestrial probe sent down to Earth by a war-like alien race as a weapon to conquer Earth. The probe mutated a group of bat-like creatures (called Probe Bats in the script) and sent them to collect various Earth creatures. The probe absorbed these creatures and the Probe Bats, using their DNA to mutate into the Gryphon.

Same. I always thought the concept of the Gryphon and the Probe Bats was a really cool and unique idea (plus the concept designs for them were awesome). I would love to see a Godzilla film that revisits that concept. Godzilla 2000 kind of came close to that idea with Orga's origin, but not to the extent that the 1994 script did.

 

It's probably unlikely that we'll ever see the Gryphon in an actual Godzilla film, but given the fact that the writer of the 94' script is involved with new movie and wrote parts of Godzilla vs Kong, it's possible that they could reuse certain ideas from that script for future instalments. Godzilla vs Kong actually had elements of the 94' script in it. The scene where Godzilla goes down on all fours and hunts Kong through the city and his more fierce, agile fighting moves were inspired by Godzilla's fight with the Gryphon in the 94' script. In the script the military captures Godzilla and uses a collar filled with a mysterious fluid to keep him sedated, however when the Gryphon arrives, they're forced to release Godzilla and destroy the collar so that he can fight the Gryphon (similar to what happens with Kong in the first battle with Godzilla). Heck, even the scene with the Hell Hawks is eerily similar to moments featuring the Probe Bats in the 94' script.

A part of me wished the American Godzilla 1994 was made but then we wouldn't have the awesome design that was Zilla nor MonsterVerse Godzilla

Yeah, as much as I would've loved to see that film be made, we probably wouldn't have gotten stuff like Godzilla the Series, the Millennium series, or the MonsterVerse. So, in a way, that film being cancelled allowed the other projects to be made.
