Legendary Pictures' GODZILLA - !!SPOILERS!!

[MaulFan]

I say make a maquette of the Empire cover and call it a day, great pose.

 

[jye4ever]

Well said, great choice.

They won't.

They'll give him a girlie pose.

 

[azurepred]

just a neutral pose for this would be fine if they wanted to keep it simple. Anything smaller than 30in tall would be a epic fail for this character.

 

[G-M53]

Giant butterfly?! You mean Mothra?! I hope we never see her in this or any sequels. Unless to be obliterated by G's atomic blast! Could never figure out the fascination over that giant insect anyway. There are way too many cooler monsters than Mothra!

YES! Haha! I never got it either.

I'm just worried about the movie sucking before dumping money into extra stuff.

Nothing worse than an art book to a movie that sucks.

Movie quality first.

I couldn't resist the Jakks though for my son to play with his tanks.

SOOOOO glad you found it. I cant for the life of me find that damn toy anywhere. And I thought Hot toys were hard to come by. I hope this movie doesnt suck either. thats my number one fear. My three most loved franchises tmnt, godzilla and spiderman end up sucking and not doing well. I really want all three to succeed this summer. Spiderman and godzilla look epic so far.

 

[jye4ever]

fingers crossed for all of them.

 

[MaulFan]

Based on what I've seen, Godzilla and TMNT are polar opposites for what they bring to their franchises. So far I've only seen the turtles but on looks alone, Godzilla is an amazing design respectful of the source while also giving a fresh spin while turtles are just...awful, I understood the major revamp of Transformers since the cartoons were too simplified to translate, but love action turtles have been done well and I have no idea what the designers of the new ones were smoking.

As for the art book, I love Godzilla and I've enjoyed every piece that's been shown of the creative process so I'm all for getting the book regardless of feelings towards the movie, even though I feel like this movie could make my top 10 favorite movies ever.

Imagine

Raiders / ESB / Godzilla



Hey, anything is possible.

 

[Viking Spawn]

Same here. I'm hoping this film is as epic as the trailers portray and is a hit! If not, it will be a MAJOR heartbreak for me just like the 98 GINO film!

 

[MaulFan]

Imagine

Raiders / ESB / Godzilla



Hey, anything is possible.

In no particular order, for me it's:

- JAWS
- Rambo
- Gojira
- Rocky Balboa
- Terminator 2
- Aliens
- Pirates of the Caribbean
- Halloween
- Wrath of Khan
- Batman 89

 

[jye4ever]

Great list minus Pirates.

 

[MaulFan]

Those are movies that no matter how many times I've seen them, I enjoy each time as if it were the first, they just never grow old. As much as I love the '84 Godzilla, the movie just can't make the cut against all that, some of it is flawed and I could easily skip past but all those movies are enjoyable start to finish.

American version or original Japanese? The Americanization is completely unnecessary.

Love this one.

I can see why! That rocks!

American version or original Japanese? The Americanization is completely unnecessary.

Both, though the Japanese cut is far superior, there are times where the story is too slow, the music isn't quite on, stuff like that. The moments with Godzilla himself are great but the human story just lacks a bit for me where Gojira is just a well rounded film.

I feel like the new movie will be a blend of my favorite elements of the two movies though, the well told human story of Gojira with the wonderful cinematography of Godzilla himself from '84.

This is what I'm counting on for the new movie.
It seems Edwards understood the importance of the original '54 film and said himself that he intends to bring this new Godzilla back to its roots.

 

[jye4ever]

Crap, there goes my hope for a Godzilla Beverly Hills Cop type movie.
