Frank Darabont’s Godzilla Will Be
a ‘Terrifying Force of Nature’

YAY!  Not your 5 year olds GOJIRA

I’m a fan of both Japanese and American Godzilla’s… but I don’t know exactly what to expect for this Gareth’s version… re-make? re-booth? They seem to be very cautiously gurading any info about this movie. 

I paid money to see the Matthew Broderick one. Hate me! :)

I liked The Mist and Frank’s work on The Walking Dead, so I think he knows what to bring to the table where Godzilla is concerned.

This is going to suck. Why do Americans always want to screw around with the basic formula for Godzilla?  “different kind of metaphor” Yeah whatever Zombie guy. Go ahead and produce your stupid film and hopefully it sucks so hard, Toho has to make a new Godzilla (and make it the RIGHT way) just to wash the nasty taste out of our mouths.

 That “American” version with Matthew Broderick was a piece of s**t.  It should never have been made.

So we can expect this movie when? 2012 has come and gone.

um—-contemporary issue= preachy global warming warning. if thats the case:ugh.

Uuh, I want to see the big G breathing fire and smashing skyscrapers like he did in the original Raymond Burr, and I would like to see Godzilla able to withstand missiles like in the 1985 Raymond Burr version.
The real Godzilla doesn’t lay eggs, get killed by two F16 missiles, and doesn’t die at the end.

They should make Godzilla bum people then feel conflicted afterwards.

 ”I love you and…”
*building blows up and crumbles across the street*
“Not right now sweetie, we’re having a talk.”
*godzilla mopes back into the ocean and waits his turn*

Booooooo!

A……ya it was!

he will only understand godzilla if he has watched the movies from first to last like all of us loyal fans. . ps godzilla must crush this new movie or be lost in hollywood forever. that last movie did decades of destruction for zilla

You think he’s going to make a movie about Godzilla without watching Godzilla?

That’s what the last guy did.. hopefully he learns from the last man’s mistake.

There’s some stuff they HAVE to have in a Godzilla movie, no matter how gritty they want to make it, or it’s gonna fail:

Godzilla has to resemble Godzilla.

Godzilla has to fight some other mutant thing or army of things.

Even if they set it in the US, a Japanese military contingent must be convenient there for some reason and get their piece too.

If they set it in the US, the US military/navy is allowed to score a knock out or otherwise survive the first encounter… but they are not allowed to win. Lockhead-Martin can’t build enough sidewinders to take down Godzilla.

Godzilla must have some aim. He can’t just be a mindless thing.. we’ve spent half a century with a sentient, purposeful Godzilla. You can bring back the juggernaut that was V1 Godzilla, but reflect his/her complex persona that’s been developed as much as possible.

If you wish to continue the franchise at all, allow room for the existence of other other Godzillas, preferably not involving nests of eggs. We all know Godzuki was born vaginally.

Why can’t we see the teaser footage they showed at comic-con???

he spoke the truth you freakin idiot.

because it’s technically not a teaser, it was a short vid he made to green light the film to legendary pictures and to capture the audience’s views on what the director has planned, but I’m sure the real teaser will be better

That last one was made by Roland Emmerich who can only make thoughtless schlocky crap. ie Independence Day, 10000BC, 2012, Stargate, the Day After Tomorrow: All of which started as reasonable ideas which he then ruined because he’s an idiot who doesn’t know his subject matter very well, doesn’t do his homework and dumbs it all down to his sucky-ass level. Frank Darabont however knows his stuff and has done some good work (Walking Dead, The Mist, Green Mile, Frankenstein(1994), Shawshank Redemption), and the listed director for this new Godzilla; Gareth Edwards, is pretty decent too, he directed Monsters which I thought was well put together, so hopefully this Godzilla should be worth a look.

As long as this Godzilla movie dosen’t suck like the 1997 version with Mathew Broderick I’m cool

The original Gojira didn’t have Raymond Burr in it, either. Might want to check it out sometime.

At least it’s not being done by James Cameron.

Let me guess: Global Warming.

wrong.. american version of Godzilla was a bag of shit wrapped up in shit…. i’m american and I’m embarrassed by it. The black and white Godzilla was even better than that pos.
