Here's an idea for a plot: The military experiments on the corpse of the male M.U.TO., and during one experiment, the corpse releases an extremely powerful radiation wave, which, due to some sort of attractive factor, pulls all sorts of radioactive energy from all over the solar system towards and out from Earth (Cosmic background radiation, cosmic rays, black-body, ultraviolet, infrared, nuclear, electromagnetic, etc...). The sudden influx and huge increase of radiation endangers the entire world, causing mass hysteria and illness. Not only that, but several experimental animals get drastically mutated by the radiation, and some ancient prehistoric animals get awakened. Those grotesque beasts are designated as high-priority targets by all military forces of the world, as they start devastating major metropolitan cities around the globe, and are completely immune to all types of weaponry, be it conventional, chemical, biological, or nuclear. However, due to this, Godzilla himself arises, and although at first he focuses on fighting other monsters, the ever increasing radiation in his body increases his power substantially, causing him to gradually lose control, and eventually go completely berserk like the rest of the monsters. Now the entire world has no choice but unite in an attempt to kill these monsters ravaging the population, as well as control what's happening in society. It becomes an all out global war, with a deadly radiation epidemic.

Now the first Godzilla was excellent. It was easily the best movie of the year so far (not being a fanboy), but it kind of does have too little action and too little of the titular character, less than the previous films. Not to mention the fact that Godzilla was quite weak compared to his other incarnations. This sequel should be an all-out monster brawl. No, not a Michael Bay-style explosion festival or a Pacific Rim mayhem-filled chaos, but rather, epic battles that show graphic displays of animal savagery, bestial cunning, and plenty of tooth and claw death battles. The human story should be more fleshed out, with more loss, more tragedy, more horrifying, bringing-you-to-your-knees emotional violence. There should be more destruction. With so many monsters fighting each other simultaneously, it should make Man of Steel look piss poor in comparison. But the destruction shouldn't be mindless like, as I said before, a Michael Bay film. It should really have meaning. For example, close up shots of civilians dying and weeping in their last moments to remind the audience of the tragedies humanity has to endure in the film. The main characters grieving over the sight of everything being annihilated. Everything emanating raw emotion. That sort of stuff. Epicness at every turn. Finally, anyone up for a micro-oxygen Easter egg or plot point?

Now the monsters. Seeing as how they would focus mainly on Earth monsters, Anguirus and Rodan seem like great choices, as they could be the prehistoric animals that are awakened by the radiation. Mothra is a good candidate also. Titanosaurus is what I call a perfect choice. Ebirah, being an aquatic daikaiju like Godzilla, would be a credible monster, considering the plot. Kumonga is a giant tarantula. The M.U.T.O.s were insectoid. Arachnids often get confused for insects. Kumonga would fit well. Gorosaurus has been seldom seen in movies. Biollante is somewhat plausible, what with the mutations and what not. Plant and fossil DNA splicing. And if the Oxygen Destroyer is involved....Destoroyah? Or none of the originals will be used, and will be replaced by completely new ones. Since Godzilla is now insanely tall and massive, all old monsters should be updated similarly to match him in terms of sheer physical power. They should all have some sort of special ability, like a beam to counteract Godzilla's Atomic Breath. That way, the battles get way more enjoyability and epicness.
