#godzilla vs kong
I’m late by a long time to add this take, but I’m bored and I’ve seen a lot of fans and casual observers talking about how the “second Ghidorah head” in Mechagodzilla’s construction comes out of nowhere. Narratively, it does, I’m not contesting that.
What I am contesting is the idea that it’s complete nonsense. You have to look at the world of the MonsterVerse through a perspective like that of Monarch.
“Myth is our compass,” and when you use that compass, you find an interesting tidbit from mythology. When Hercules slew the Lernaean Hydra there was one immortal head that could not be killed, only buried.
In the MonsterVerse, every myth and legend of gods and monsters is a garbled remix of kaiju/Titans witnessed in the distant past. Assuming that Hercules is Godzilla, that makes the hydra Ghidorah. I can only conclude that before Ghidorah was frozen in Antarctica, they had another battle where Ghidorah lost a head but escaped, and it was this head - or at least skull - that ended up in Apex’s hands.
It was the head Goji ripped off Ghidorah in the ocean before the oxygen destroyer was launched in Mexico during KotM. He didn’t eat/destroy that head, just tossed it aside.
No no, that’s one of the heads Apex has in the movie, but it’s specifically mentioned that they’ve got two heads. One inside Mechagodzilla, and the other in the building as the cockpit/control center.
It’s a blink (or rather, sneeze since it’s dialogue) and you miss it mention in the movie, but the novel emphasizes it more.
One of them is the one Godzilla ripped off near Mexico, I was addressing the unexplained other head.
(I cannot stand the idea of anyone believing I don’t know my Godzilla movie lore, lol.)
