As freaking cool as it is that Mothra and King Ghidorah are being considered for the sequels, I am not entirely convinced that they would fit well into the grounded setting that the first film established. At least not without some big modifications.

Mothra: It's pretty clear to us that the mystical elements of her character will not mix well, so its not gonna be integrated. The problem is that these mystical elements are inherently a big part of her character. You take that away and you're left with nothing but a giant insect and I fear it'll come off as a rehash of the MUTO.

King Ghidorah: I don't want them to make him a terrestrial organism that was part of the ancient ecosystem. Pushing for the idea that a species of golden three-headed dragon evolved is going too far, and the prehistoric giant monster ecosystem thing is already on the edge of the believability-BS thread. If they choose to make him extraterrestrial, I hope he is an independent character with no alien masters attached to his backside. Still, a three-headed alien dragon is a hard sell, but at least its not as bad as making him terrestrial.

I think Anguirus should be included within the trilogy because he could fit well within the established lore. I also want Legendary to create more original monsters, maybe recycle the "Vishnu"/"Talaghan" creature and make something good out of it because it'd fit in too.
