  • toonking1985 I imagine him to be more based on Junior from the Heisei films and unlike previous incarnations of Godzilla’s son he is Godzilla’s biological son. His name in the MonsterVerse is Japanese for “Small God” and one of the kids named him after a dog she once had (which is a reference to how fictional characters are named after their creator’s pet). His behavior would be influenced by the behavior of infant animals like lion cubs, tiger cubs, bear cubs, elephant calves, baby gorillas, baby crocodilians, wolf pups, etc. In this movie Minya would be 2 meters tall but I imagine that in later MonsterVerse installments he would grow bigger in each one just like with Junior in the Heisei movies. He has the intelligence of an orca even though he is still a baby and despite his size he is still a powerhouse like an adult Godzilla. He is strong enough to win a fight with a full grown male Kodiak Bear or a pack of spotted hyenas. I like to think that baby Godzillas like Minya would be more fast and agile (like a raptor or a cheetah) than adult Godzillas but would outgrow it when they get bigger. I imagine that, just like how no two zebras have the same stripe pattern, no two Godzillas have the same shaped dorsal plates. Minya’s design is meant to look like a younger version of the MonsterVerse Godzilla but his design also takes cues from Junior’s design from Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II, baby crocodilians, and baby t-rexes. His tail is also prehensile so he could use it like an extra hand. I would do Minya’s roars similar, if not identical, to the roars of the MonsterVerse Godzilla but make them sound like they are coming from a smaller and younger creature and heck I might even throw in Minya’s roars and Junior’s roars from the Toho films. During the whole film Minya can only blow smoke rings but during the climax of the movie he would be able to fire a proper atomic breath. During the climactic battle between Godzilla and Gabara when Gabara manages to topple Godzilla over and tries to electrocute him to death, Minya intervenes by firing a proper atomic breath at Gabara’s eye which makes him more frantic to attack and kill Minya. When Minya saves the kids from getting killed by Gabara, he ends up getting seemingly killed (but later turns out to still be alive after Godzilla killed Gabara) and Minya receives an injury that would disable his ability to use a full-fledged atomic breath unless he uses up most of his energy. If you know what’s good you would know that threatening, harming, or mistreating Minya’s friends in front of him is not a wise idea as any bad guys or bullies would learn that the hard way. The film also acknowledges that Minya is destined to become the future king of the monsters when Godzilla is gone. We would use a mix of visual effects (like CGI and Mo-cap) and practical effects (like men in suits, animatronics, and puppets) to bring Minya to life and plus we think of having Jim Henson’s Creature Shop (the special effects studio behind the effects of The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, the first two 90’s TMNT movies, Jim Henson’s Dinosaurs, the live-action Flintstones movies, Babe, the gorillas from the first George of the Jungle movie, and Where the Wild Things Are) do the practical effects for the movie.
