Monsters vs. Aliens/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

** Rule #1 of giantess stories: those questions should never be asked, unless the author can use them for his story.

** [[Mathematician's Answer|The same way they solved those problems for Insectosaurus.]] And if you ask how they solved ''her'' problems, money and an insane ammount of high end engineering. Where did they get the money? They opened a highly lucrative fertilizer/methane combustion power plant business that funds a good chunk of their expenses. ("When it rains lemons, make lemonade" and all that.)

 

* I can't possibly be the first person to notice that Insectosaurus looks more like a giant HAMSTER from the advertisements than an insect. What gives?

** You're definitely not alone in thinking that, and this is from the person who added the [[Wing Pull]] entry. I figured suddenly growing wings to be just as unlikely for that very reason, having missed out on it being called Insectosaurus.

*** This troper assumed that the reason it looks like a hamster is because certain insects are covering with hairs thus the giant insect may look very furry.

** You'll note that Susan is as strong as a robot that is as big as said tiny creature turned huge. Though the Phlebotinium doesn't make her as big as those creatures, it does make her ''stronger''.

 

** To be fair, apparently most of the monsters have, upon their initial emergence, gone on a rampage. Insectosaurus ate part of Tokyo, B.O.B. ate a bunch of stuff, the Missing Link started kidnapping hot babes on his favourite beach (and fought off a few branches of the military) and Susan (accidentally) nearly crushed her fiance and a number of others to death. Dr. Cockroach is perhaps exempt, but then again, he ''is'' a self-described ''mad'' scientist, and is shown at one point attempting to construct a nuclear missile out of building blocks. They're probably too dangerous to let out without training or heavy supervision, except in situations where they are ''supposed'' to break things.

** And the Missing Link is emphatically unrepentant about what he did; he's not only ''proud'' but he can't wait to do it again.

** Part of it is the monster's utter dependence on one another ''not'' to cause rampant chaos. Insectosaurus is essentially a massive puppy with about the same impulse control, BOB literally ''lacks a brain'', and nearly kills a few people on several different occasions due to it. And Dr. Cockroach...well, he was insane before, and he can only be ''more'' insane now.

* One thing that's bugged me is how people keep insisting that Insectosaurus is female just because of how he looks (IE: [[Teritary Sexual Characteristics|big eyelashes, lips, busty body when he's a butterfly]]). Insects in general don't follow the conventional means of male/female differences the way humans do. Likewise, it's possible for someone/something to look female but still be male (Which is why the term [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]] exists) since gender and sex are ''not'' the same thing (Hence why some people view themselves as of the female/male gender, but are of the male/female biological sex). Not to mention that gender/sex means ''nothing'' to insects since many species are able to change their sex when necessary.

** Insectosaurus is a cartoony insect rather than a realistic one. And in cartoon animals, [[Tertiary Sexual Characteristics]] normally indicate their sex.
