10 Things To Look Out For In Monarch: Legacy Of Monsters
5. The San Francisco Aftermath
If kaijus were real, and managed to devastate a city, one of the questions people would ask is how, if at all, can the city recover? A shot in the teaser of a smouldering San Francisco might start to provide some answers.
This is most likely the immediate aftermath of Godzilla's fight against the MUTOs (whose carcasses are not visible - Monarch took at least parts of one of them away to an underwater base of operations).
The immediate relief effort is seen at the end of Godzilla (2014), and Monarch personnel are on the ground. Godzilla himself will have departed, so any role Monarch has in helping a city to rebuild itself after such an attack might be explored in more detail.
This is assuming, of course, that the city is rebuilt at all. In Godzilla: King of the Monsters, Madison Russell shows footage of Las Vegas, which was devastated after one of the MUTOs hatched from the Yucca Mountain nuclear waste repository. Rather than being rebuilt, Vegas was reclaimed by nature, with plants overflowing out of broken building and cracked roads. Numerous possibilities exist for cities brought down by kaiju attacks, yet another area where this new series promises some answers.
