Why didn Destoroyah destroy any oxygen?
For me, this was the biggest mystery of the movie. Here we had a monster spawned from the only weapon to kill Godzilla, yet beyond its microbe stage no oxygen is destroyed. Even though the Human-Sized Destoroyahs had a white ray that looked like oxygen, it did nothing more than knock people around or slice cars. One thought is that Destoroyah was a by-product of the oxygen destroyer, a Pre-Cambrian crustacean reawakened by Serizawa’s device in 1954. If he was a mutation, then he wouldn’t necessarily need any oxygen-destroying capabilities. However, when the Aggregate first attacked the tanks, Dr. Ijuin said the monster IS the oxygen destroyer. Then again, he was wrong every other time in the movie (like not using fire on the Destoroyahs and the micro-oxygen draining Junior), so he could’ve been in error there. My friend Bruce had the best answer as to why Destoroyah didn’t use this quality: because Godzilla has to win! (I also included “non-uses” of SpaceGodzilla’s shield and MechaGodz
