** Alternately, the heads are just appendages for sensing and fighting, with the ''real'' control center being located in the body. At most, they'd have the marginal "personalities" of an octopus's tentacles. The "bickering" heads could be a side effect of each head having reflexive ganglia that drive them to get snappy when foiled, sometimes even at each other, in the same way a human might give themselves a stinging slap on their left arm by reflexively swatting at a mosquito with their right palm.

** It does start acting more explicitly malicious and aggressive after regrowing though. Perhaps it remembers the trauma of being severed and painfully being reconstructed?

** From what we got in the film it looks like so far we are to take it they were worshiped like gods and we don't completely understand them. However Ghidorah is pretty much completely alien and bizarre and Mothra is handled in many ways that makes one question how much RealityEnsues is still with the franchise going forward. The next film has promises to explore more of the origins, so perhaps we will get a more fullblown explanation next year.

** The film makes it quite clear that Emma Russel ''is a crazy idiot''. The moment she reveals her true plans, everybody on Monarch -- and her own daughter -- call her out as delusional in some way, from Dr. Serizawa's visible horror at her plans to her daughter calling her "a monster". She even comes to her senses in the final quarter of the movie and tries to thwart her own plan.

** Didn’t understand that ethier. The guy probably just didn’t know what he was talking about as it’s highly unlikely their heads are their genitalia.

** from the size of the warhead assembly in the scene, it would seem to be similar in size to the W76 warhead assembly used on smaller MIRV warheads for Trident I missiles, which is a 95 kilogram Thermonuclear system that has a yield of 90 to 100 kilotons.

* When they arrive to the Antarctica outpost they say they are already getting a ECG signal from Ghidorah, so it's evident that he was already half-awaken from the drilling. Perhaps Ghidorah was already subconsciously emiting some sort of signal that Godzilla managed to identify.

** I think it's worth noting that Ghidorah is an alien superbeing that has abilities that quite simply don't exist on Earth, including a HealingFactor that enable it to regenerate parts in minutes, survive being frozen and an Oxygen destroyer that almost killed the strongest thing in the world. It is ''entirely'' possible that he simply flew to Earth through the void of space. Which raises further, more disturbing questions like; Where did he come from? Are there more? Why did he choose Earth?
** The novel states he was a younger son who wouldn’t not get any territory due to being younger and came to earth to get his own territory.

** Alternately, the heads are just appendages for sensing and biting, with the ''real'' control center being located in the body. The "bickering" heads could be a side effect of each head having reflexive ganglia that drive them to get snappy when foiled, sometimes even at each other, in the same way a human might give themselves a stinging slap on their left arm by reflexively swatting at a mosquito with their right palm.

* Graham mentions that Outpost 32 has DNA samples stored in a lab. If they extracted and analyzed Ghidorah's genetic material, shouldn't it have clued them in that Ghidorah isn't from Earth, or at least made them aware that it's unlike any other Titan or non-Titan lifeform on the planet?

OK, I kinda could buy they Ecoterrorists could take by surprise the MONARCH outpost where Mothra was being contained, but it seemed that after that no attempts were made to bolster their defenses (both electronic and physical) and put everybody on a stricter security alert. Bear in mind that Jonah's forces were just a dozen of armed people at most, and yet the Antartica outpost falls so quickly they weren't even able to send a distress signal, and the hacking of the containment measures (something MONARCH already knew was something the terrorists were able to do) in the Isla de Mara outpost went equally fast and unimpeded. Also, the terrorists leave their Osprey right in the front of the Antartica base, and when the MONARCH forces arrive using that same entrance... they ignore the terrorist's only way of escape? Why not leave a couple of guards, or at least do something so any of the hostile forces won't find their escape vehicle up and running just fine?

* The consensus we as a wiki seem to have come to on the main page is that Ghidora's FreudidianTrio is split into three semi-distinct personalities: The right head ([[YourOtherLeft Ghidora's right, that is]]) is the calculating and analytical super ego, the central head is the bossy ego, and the left head is the base and impulsive Id.

** Unlike Conjoined twins, Ghidora is an alien who is presumably ''supposed'' to have three heads, so he probably has some sort of neurological mechanism in place to deal with stuff like that. Perhaps the three brains are able to unconsciously communicate what they want the body to do via a neural note located at the point of spinal intersection, with the central head having veto power in the event of a three-way disagreement.

* The simplest answer is that they couldn't. Remember to get to the position where they killed Ghidorah required Godzilla to literally take a nuke to the face! The circumstances and condition on earth during their last fight simply did not give Godzilla what he needed to finish Ghidorah off but imprisoning him solved the problem.

*** Godzilla only Ni up and slammed him once the rest is him getting curb-stomped. He gets bitten when choke slamming Ni and when they grapple in the next shot we see of the fight he gets bitten and forced back by Ni. He gets blasted on the ground, blasted again and then blasted into the hole. He ran away because the military shot him and surprised him (he’d never been hit with missiles before). Ghidorah won the Arctic fight and Boston fight (round one against normal Godzilla) even though Godzilla was supercharged, had help from Mothra and got an early hit. Ghidorah is clearly stronger and beat him in 3/5 of the fights we know they had. Ghidorah was a summer only losing under water because he got ambushed and was panicking. In Antarctica and Boston he dominated and beat Godzilla.
