GODZILLA Directed by: Gareth Edwards  Starring: Elizabeth Olsen Bryan Cranston Aaron Taylor-Johnson Juliette Binoche Vistor Rasuk http://www.legendary.com/films/godzilla http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0831387/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godzilla_(2014_film) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjKO10hKtYw What's this about? quote:"An epic rebirth to Toho’s iconic Godzilla, this spectacular adventure pits the world’s most famous monster against malevolent creatures who, bolstered by humanity’s scientific arrogance, threaten our very existence" -- Legendary Pictures. You mentioned other monsters. What are they? It is known that there will be two monsters that Godzilla fights. One is a centipede like creature and here is a picture of it from the one leaked trailer.  The other one is a mystery at this point in time. Last I heard, there were rumblings that it was a flying creature, but who knows? Is there any more info about what the movie is going to be like? Here is an alright interview that actually talks about the general theme of the movie. quote:You made the 9/11 comparison. The original Godzilla was from an A-bomb. So is this like a similar tone to that? DID YOU SAY SOMETHING ABOUT AN ARG? Nope, but there is one. http://www.mutoresearch.net/ Fat Lou fucked around with this message at 21:07 on Feb 28, 2014 |

Everything I've seen from this so far is making me more and more excited for it. Never thought I'd be excited for an American Godzilla.

I cannot wait for this. The tone of the movie looks fantastic. Really curious what route they're going with, as far as other monsters go.

As a casual fan of Godzilla since I was a kid I am beyond hyped for this - I know it might lead to super disappointment but everything so far has been great. Plus nothing can be as bad as Godzilla 98.

Haha, as cheesy as that is - the Godzilla series is in it's own little bubble where even something like baby Godzilla can just be laughed at and enjoyed on a humourous angle. Godzilla 98 doesn't have anything going for it at all.

That trailer appeals to just about everything I've ever liked about large-scale disaster films. It's like the shot of the six legged big-rear end... behemoth thing from The Mist, expanded over a Godzilla skin. I am way, way too excited for this now.

Holy gently caress. I can't believe they gave Gareth Edwards a summer tentpole movie. He is going to kill it. The trailer...so good.

Godzilla is so big that after seeing Godzilla diagonally it takes several seconds of falling at terminal velocity before the halo jumper is looking at Godzilla at eye level. That's wonderful. Any milnuts able to identify the bomb at 1:35?

I'm a sucker for monster movies as long as they have a good budget and the effects are top of the line. If I get to gawk at giant monsters you can just forget the story or the characters, you already have my money. Not that Bryan Cranston's presence won't be a gigantic bonus! edit: pun not intended believe it or not

I didn't realise that they were just calling it Godzilla. If America gets to make another Godzilla movie after this then I hope that they also call it Godzilla.

After Final Wars I was afraid they weren't going to make anymore Godzilla films, so I'm very excited that this is finally happening. The last time I was so pumped up over a Godzilla movie was the 1998 film. As we all know how that one turned out, I am really hoping this one will be as good as it looks.

Any speculation as to why people would be parachuting onto Godzilla? I hope they go inside of him or something.

The teaser trailer was loving incredible and has me all kinds of excited for this. That cast list is great too, and I can't wait to see more of that centipede creature. This looks wayyyyyyy better than Godzilla '98, and one that I'm definitely going to see in IMAX at midnight the day it comes out.im gay posted:Any speculation as to why people would be parachuting onto Godzilla?

To paint him with a laser for that big weapon that everyone was standing around? So ready for this. The guy focusing on the moving object as it came into focus (Godzilla) while dropping was surreal and horrifying.

Did anyone download the trailer that had Oppenheimer talking over it? It's got the original more mechanical sounding roar on it but I cant find it anywhere.

Both the teaser and trailer are really good, and I kinda hope the final movie is very sparse with actually showing Godzilla. I also hope to be pretty much shook out of my chair by the soundtrack. edit: the parachuting makes me think maybe a desperate attempt to plant explosives on Godzilla's body? Though that would be a suicide mission, because even if you landed on him, you'd never get off him alive.

Well they're landing near him instead of on him, so I assume that's not the plan. I would think they'd start flares from the ground instead of so high up (shrug) Who knows.

That teaser trailer was pretty underwhelming IMO. You could barely see anything as they were falling from the plane it was so dark. Perhaps in order to hide some of the bad CGI? Also, apparently Godzilla is going to be fighting other monsters in this film, which I find pretty stupid because they're obviously going have Godzilla make a mutual agreement to ally with the military here. Godzilla is supposed to be a villain, not a vigilante. I guess I'll be rooting for the giant centipedes.

I'm pretty sure that every frame of that trailer had more artistry and atmosphere than the entirety of Roland Emerich's POS. Very cool. The thing is, a rampaging giant monster would be almost incalculably terrifying in real life, but the only one in a movie that ever put any fear in me was the first Godzilla. The trailer has shots that put me in the mind of Goya's painting The Colossus, which has always given me chills for some reason.

The first one sounded more mechanical with just the separate honks on the end but they added in the gurgle to make it sound more organic.

The atmosphere of the video is amazing, it looks like it's going to be a great film, but I would have loved a better look at Godzilla!

I'm hoping for (and it looks like we'll be getting) a GMK type situation where he battles other monsters, but more for his own benefit than out of any desire to protect humanity.

Godzilla 1984 is actually a pretty good effort at this, while mixing in complex characters and complex government issues. Basically Godzilla 1984 is the second best Godzilla movie ever, is what I'm saying. Here's hoping this surpasses it.
