So is nobody concerned, that in the teaser from a couple of days ago and the main trailer that King Ghidorah seems to be chasing, hunting or toying with Millie Bobby Brown’s character, Madison Russell?
Like in the teaser, where he seems to be interrupting Madison’s attempt to reach Monarch?
Or in the trailer, where his storm clouds seem to zero in on her in particular?
Or the scene where he attacks her in her own home?
OR THE SCENE WHERE SHE’S ALONE IN A ROOM AND HE LOOKS RIGHT AT HER?!
I think the worst thing is that there’s no way to explain why he’s doing it. Unless the two cross paths ultra-frequently because of some MASSIVE coincidences, it makes no sense.
If he was tracking her because she’s a threat, or because she’s been in contact with him or the other daikaiju, he has (quite literally) all the power in the world-
-at his disposal to kill her and he could do it in a heartbeat.
King Ghidorah is a serial planet-killer and he’s trying to murder a harmless little girl for shits and giggles, all while scaring her to death. And this bastard is enjoying every second of it.
We are in for one hell of a villain.
Well, looks like Legendary’s got Ghidorah’s character down pat. Like, there’s only four genuinely evil monsters in the Toho films; Gigan, SpaceGodzilla, Destoroyah and (of course) Ghidorah. Gigan is a vicious bully and a coward who likes kicking other monsters when they’re down, but the destruction of humans seems to be collateral damage with him; SpaceGodzilla personally wants to kill Godzilla to prove his strength and conquer earth, but doesn’t seem to give a shit about humanity; Destoroyah wants to kill everything for fun and murders Godzilla Jr and then rubs it in his dad’s face. And the thing is? Ghidorah is worse than all three of them.
Ghidorah doesn’t just want to destroy and kill; he wants his victims to suffer as he kills them, since it’s more fun for him. And it’s canon that he’d go out of his way to harm children just because he thinks it’s fun; in the Mothra trilogy, he was about to kill hundreds of children and feast on their souls. He doesn’t need to do that. He just wants to cause as much pain and suffering as he possibly can. And as he goes about horribly murdering and terrorizing entire planets, he’s cackling like a maniac.
Point is, it’d be in character for Ghidorah to go out of his way to terrorize an innocent child. Because he’s just that much of a complete and total asshole.
I think Destroyah isn’t really evil so much as stressed and hungry (we read malice into their final form but that’s just the way their face looks like. Similar to how we assume dolphins are smiling. If they understood familial ties they might not have killed Jr if they knew it would only piss Godzilla off.)
