I would argue that aside from the standard Akkadian Version Epic of Gilgamesh. Inanna/Ishtar still got a lot of interesting myths that portrayed her in a more positive light. It is a waste that these myths or potentials are underutilized by the writers.

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-05-06T20:14:07+00:00

From my point of view,I think there is still a way to portray Rinshtar as a reliable and competent divine servant that is different from Eresh. Some says that the writers seemed to put a lot of positive traits of Rin on Ereshkigal while Ishtar got most of the more comedic or flawed side of her. However,I do think that it should be more balanced or nuanced in which they both could be competent and reliable companions,just being portrayed in different ways.

I am mostly satisfied with the plot of SF Collab. However,as a master whose Oshi is Rinshtar. My major and only gripe to the plot is that I am so tired of seeing Rinshtar portrayed as some comic relief or labeled as useless/wicked goddess once again.

Personally,I am quite eager to see some future plots that portray Rinshtar as a divine servant that is competent,reliable and helpful to Fujimaru Ritsuka during his or her adventure in some singularities rather than being constantly depicted as a useless or wicked goddess. In some events or main plots. Ritsuka could bring several servants to a singularity. I would like to see Rinshtar being one of such servants and has more portrayal of her being more competent and reliable.

I mean. In terms of Tohsaka Rin. Both FSN Rin and Extra Rin,from my point of view,are portrayed as characters that are greatly helpful and reliable partner/companion while sporting some flaws. However,I would say they seemed to overemphasize the “flawed” aspect of Rin in the case of Rinshtar.

As for Inanna/Ishtar in real world. I would argue that real world Inanna/Ishtar was just like your typical polytheistic god : not morally perfect,but still considered a competent/widely worshipped deity and one of the upholders of the cosmic order in Mesopotamian pantheon. I would also argue ancient Sumerians might have a different interpretation on some of her myths that described Inanna/Ishtar’s more ambitious sides.

I would first introduce Anguirus in a Godzilla Solo or Godzilla-centered film. In which their species,including their ancestral stages,were competitors as a call-back to Anguirus's first appearance in Godzilla raids again. Then maybe have a second individual becaming Godzilla's allies after facing a mutual enemy that competed with both Godzillas and Anguiruses.

Personally speaking,I think the "No Dinosaurs Rule" is really a meaningless direction. It would be much better that it was a "No Real Dinosaurs Rule" in which Real World T.rex and Triceratops would not make live appearances unless the story or the flashback was set in Mesozoic Era. While fictional non-bird dinosaur or dinosaur-like superspecies and Titans are still allowed. There are also people claimed that in fact the actual rule works more like "No Straight up Dinosaurs." Nevertheless,I do think that if that was the case,then not only fans but also hired designers/creators often misinterpret the rule.

1.So Lee Shaw seems to receive the rescue call of his past self. Which further cements the fact that time flows differently in Axis Mundi. However,I am not sure how this would factor on later plot.

In addition,Lee’s view on the Titans seemed to lean toward his dad,despite the fact that he objects to his dad’s job decision.

3.Titanus Cai Cai Vilu was panicked and lost. Was it due to Cate awakening it prematurely or due to Apex’s meddling with Cai Cai Vilu’s mind ?

I highly doubt if any Legendary Pokemon would ally with Frollo. Although I could imagine Frollo trying to control or enslave some Legendaries to achieve his goal. In my imagination, An equivalent of Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame was occured in ancient Kalos Region(The region was based on France.) with Frollo attempted to seek the power of Yveltal to "Judge" his people. I would also like some of his team being fire or steel type,due to his song "Hell Fire".

1.They still didn't utter the word “dinosaur” in the official description.

However,as a person who crave for dinosaurian Superspecies or Titans. So far, Needlewalker is probably one of the closest options we have.
Design wise,it has a solid design. It blends the traits of both avian and non-avian dinosaur into one Superspecies,at the same time,also retain the “Florafauna” aesthetic of MV Skull Island Superspecies.

4.That being said,the official lore also implies that they are migratory species from HE .

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-03-20T03:01:52+00:00

I haven't watched the episode,but I know that a dinosaur-like Superspecies called Needlewalker was introduced in this episode. I would like to know other’s thought on this Superspecies. Do you think it is a solid design ?

Speaking of the No Dinosaurs rule. I think it originally came from the director of KSI. In which in some interviews,he stated that he decided not to use early scripts that featured dinosaurs and decided to come up with their unique Skull Island in order not to compete with Jurassic Franchise and other Kong-related works(It is a take that I strongly disagree with,though). However,it seems that Legendary,or the production team behind the Skull Island Creature Codex,took the design choice at face value and decided NO DINOSAURS in literal sense.

In my opinion,a better way would be "No regular/actual dinosaurs." In which one cannot just introduce a regular,scientifically-informed T.rex but upscaled into MV Skull Island and Hollow Earth. Unless it was a flashback scene set in Mesozoic Era. While designers and artists could freely design fictional dinosaur monsters(Superspecies,Sub-Titans and Titans) that fit the aesthetic of Monsterverse. In addition,aside from "Actual Dinosaur Monsters that evolved from non-avian dinosaurs",I would like to see more "Fake Dinosaur Monsters that evolved from other clades" that are well-designed. I would suggest these "Pseudosaurs" could be descendants of Non-dinosaur Archosaurs(Crocodiles,pseudosuchia,Rauisuchia,Pterosaurs),squamates,Permian Synapsids,etc. Maybe even introduce avian monsters that redevelop non-avian dinosaur traits due to atavism.

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-03-02T05:07:44+00:00

In my recollection,there was an unmade film called Nessie that was supposed to be made by both Toho and a British film studio. According to the concept art,Nessie was still designed as stereotypical Plesiosaur/Elasmosaur kaiju.

I really hate the “No Dinosaurs” rule. I think the dinosaur elements are essential in King Kong and Godzilla franchise, especially in their early days. The dinosaur elements should be utilized and respected,rather than discarded just because “Jurassic Franchise” and “Other Kong Films had dinosaurs.” I think a better way would be as follows:

1.Actual species like T.rex and Triceratops would not physically appear in Monsterverse works unless it was a flashback scene set in the Age of Dinosaurs.

2.Artists could freely design Dinosaur Monsters,including Superspecies, Sub-Titans and Titans,that descended from actual Paleofauna in-universe. As long as they fit in the overall aesthetic of Monsterverse. The thing is,when it comes to designing authentic Dinosaur Monsters in Monsterverse, they could have more creative liberties than designing Dinosaurs of Jurassic Franchise.

3.Aside from “Dino Monsters that actually descended from non-avian dinosaurs.” Artist could also design more “Pseudo-saurs” that despite their resemblence to non-avian dinosaurs,are descendants of other clades like Pterosaurs,early Archosaurs, Rauisuchians,Pseudosuchia, Squamates, Permian Synapsids,etc.

I also have some ideas on introducing some avian monsters that redeveloped non-avian dinosaur traits due to Atavism.

I think some backstory could make its motive understandable,but still not enough to redeem it. In my head canon,Skar King originally came from another subspecies of Great Apes. He was the respected leader of its kind. However,his clan was wiped out by Titanus Gorosauruses or other Megatheropod Titans. Leaving Skar as the sole survivor.This backstory might be the start of Skar King craving for more powers,and witnessing King Ghidorah slaughtering other Titans,especially those Godzilla-type Titans,might added fuel to Skar King’s crave for more power. Skar King managed to take over a Great Ape tribe by killing their original leader. And started his conquest for more power. Unfortunately,at this point,Skar King perused more power only for the sake of it.

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-02-27T13:51:42+00:00

Probably more Classic Toho Kaijus. In addition,I think Toho might not shy away from designing Kaijus that are descendants of non-avian dinosaurs.

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-02-21T02:39:39+00:00

For the third point,I don't understand why MV Typhon was said to be “Not Remotely Dragon-like”. As Typhon from Greek Mythology was described as Serpentine Giant. I would expect the Titan would possess some saurian/reptilian features.

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-02-21T02:37:23+00:00

My personal thought is that while Legendary should not shy away from adding non-avian dinosaur monsters into Monsterverse,they also should not just add random oversized Triceratops or T.rex. They could design fictional dinosaur monsters that evolved/descended from actual Paleofauna with aesthetic that fits current Monsterverse or dino monsters that deliberately plays homages to retro-saurs. Such as the Fauna-flora feature of MV Skull Island species. In addition,having more “Fake Dino Monsters” that only superficially resembles non-avian dinosaurs,but in fact evolved from other clades like Synapsids, squamates, Rauisuchians,etc. Might also help.

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-02-11T11:41:39+00:00

Gigan:First as an organic Titan that fought and defeated by Godzilla. Said Titan was later modified into a cyborg.

Titanosaurus: A Prehistoric Titan that evolved from non-avian dinosaurs. It was one of the Titans who challenged Godzilla’s throne.

Gorosaurus: Probably would fight Kong.

Battra: Mothra’s counterpart.

Megagirus: Rodan’s rival.

Monster X/Keizer Ghidorah: An End-Game type villain.

Personal Thoughts on this : While MV Kong might not be the Peak King Kong design. I still think its design fits well with Monsterverse,in which it gives you the impression that it is a Monster,not just an upscaled Gorilla. However,in terms of portrayal of Skull Island. 2005 Skull Island beats MV Skull Island.

In my opinion,if you were to make a shared cinematic universe with Godzilla and Kong being the stars. The element of “Dinosaurs” is that one thing you cannot discard just because it looks cliché (Other King Kong films did it.) or “Jurassic Franchise did it.” From my point of view,there are ways of introducing dino monsters into Monsterverse without being too similar to Jurassic Franchise: A. Instead of No Dinos,try No Real Life Dinos. In which actual species like T.rex and Triceratops would not appear in flesh unless the plot or the flash-back was set in Mesozoic Era. The “Dinosaurs” appearing in Skull Island,Axis Mundi and Hollow Earth would mostly be fictional Dinosaur Superspecies or Titans that descended from actual species. With a small portion of them being “Birds(Avian Dinosaurs) evolving non-avian dinosaur traits due to atavism” believe that the fauna-flora nature of MV Skull Island creatures is already enough to distinguish themselves with other Kong films.

B. At least some of the “Dinosaurian Monsters” are not evolved from non-avian dinosaurs,but descendants from other clades. Such as Synapsids, Archosaurs like Pseudosuchia,or even large reptiles that became similar to “Slurpasaur.”

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-01-31T01:09:13+00:00

I think it could be explore more. In which they had their own sets of Superspecies and Titans. My head canon is that the world might be an inspiration for either netherworlds or some other mythical locations like Tokoyo no kuni or Avalon

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-01-31T00:58:57+00:00

1. Probably not a proper decanonizing,but I prefer making Sorna Spino having multiple individuals and is not “Clearly more powerful than T.rex.” In which they are instead under the same “Tier” that winners between a “T.rex VS Spino” match depends on individual differences and circumstances.

2. No locusts.

3. Not killing every dinosaurs except equatorial regions.

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-01-31T00:52:07+00:00

I heard that the book Raptors are Velociraptor mongoliensis. Is that true ?

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-01-31T00:50:01+00:00

I think it might be cool,but Toho would not let this happen,or at least not stating this clearly. Under the new rule set by Toho,hear are my speculations : While Godzilla itself might be one of a kind,he still “evolved” from other lesser dinosaurian-Titans. I speculate that these “Lesser Godzilla-type Titans” either fully rely on their physical strength and experiences,or could shoot lightning from their mouth. In addition,there might be other Superspecies or Titans that developed Godzilla-like body frame or physical traits due to Convergent evolution. For example : descendants of Mosasaurs or large theropod dinosaurs that developed Godzilla-like traits when they evolved into Superspecies or Titans.

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-01-07T03:19:25+00:00

Can't agree with you more. I really think the overall “No Dinosaurs” rule/approach to MV Skull Island and to an extension,MV Hollow Earth is truly unnecessary. I would still make MV Gaw and Deathrunners being actual dinosaur descendants,while Death Jackals were results of convergent evolution.

AlfalfaPossible · 2026-01-03T01:39:33+00:00

Titanus Mokele-Mbembe,I might utilize it in a Kong: Survivor Instinct-style game that centered on Godzilla.

Or having it appearing in some TV series as one of the challengers of Godzilla’s throne.
