I would indeed say that a giant amphibious creature that survived several extinction events and can breathe superheated plasma is much more realistic than a three-headed extraterrestrial unintelligent creature conveniently about Godzilla's size that was capable of traveling LIGHT YEARS through the vacuum of space simply by flapping its wings through it (which makes no sense when you think about it, as there is no air in outer space for a Ghidorah-like creature to push its wings and propel itself against), not die due to being exposed by the vacuum of space and not eating or drinking anything for millions--no, BILLIONS of years that was improbably biologically similar to life on Earth or perhaps more improbably used a hypothetical and unproven-to-yet-exist wormhole to suddenly pop up to Earth from a planet similar enough to Earth to have creatures with a similar evolution.

But I'm sounding like a broken record now, as is everyone else by not reading what I'm saying and repeating this same thing...

And, I would beg to differ about "King Ghidorah being the pawn of alien overlords being out of the question," The King of the Monsters, since like I JUST said, the likelihood of a conveniently-Godzilla-sized extraterrestrial with three heads, wings, able to breathe in Earth's atmosphere and survive the vacuum of space or traveling on a meteor forming on a planet where conditions for this to happen present themselves are way too low and would require a godsend in writing to fit into this universe... even though the chances of King Ghidorah forming evolutionarily would still be low, the chances of it being brought as a 'pet' of a race of advanced creatures that has somehow encountered Earth and wants to take it over are much higher since the chances of intelligent life out there that is perhaps billions of years more advanced than us is MUCH more likely than King Ghidorah being an independent monster with no sapience that merely flapped its wings through space. Sure, Ghidorah being a pawn has been done before, but... so has him being an alien with ambiguous origins!

And since the MUTOs and Godzilla already fall into this ecosystem of giant creatures that fed on radiation, it would ONLY make more sense to add to that, not completely disregard it and throw it away in order to make King Ghidorah an alien to please some fans who want to see something just because it's more familiar to them... I want to see something new, not something rehashed! There are no realistic, new options available for KG being an alien (if Ghidorah WAS made to be an alien, we would know absolutely nothing about it and that would remain a mystery since we would have no way of studying King Ghidorah's species or the planet it came from or anything. This universe is not about mysteries since we already know so much about Godzilla and the MUTOs, it's about how this is all connected and how it works!), and AGAIN, Gareth might decide to throw this away and make up whatever he wants and destroy what he was trying to set up, but this is unlikely and most assuredly will not happen. Instead, what Edwards will try to do is fit Ghidorah, Mothra, and Rodan into this ecosystem of ancients that has been awakened for reasons, not just some random alien that JUST SO HAPPENED to come to Earth 4 years after the giant monsters of the planet revealed themselves. I mean, that would be INCREDIBLY good timing on Ghidorah's behalf, wouldn't it? I mean, that's like a bunch of dinosaurs coming up from the center of the Earth 2 years after we ran out of oil and then just a few hours later aliens invade. It just doesn't make sense and is way too contrived.
