how did the godzilla thread turn into a debate about anime? lol super excited for this film, but I have no idea how it brings anime into the conversation

You got a problem with anime? Huhhhh???????

this literally happened in 98 Godzilla. WTF Are these people doing???????

What the HELL?? :lol

It's kind of disturbing to see this similarity with Zilla from the 1998 movie :lol.

That ad gave me serious Gino flashbacks. Need to rinse the taste out of my mouth with some Ghidorah the Three-Headed Monster.

Riddick is right, bad marketing move.

I will say this... That commercial was better and more exciting then the 1998 Godzilla film :lecture
 
That film was all sorts of awful. But, Godzilla shouldn't be popping cars into his mouth, like cheese puffs that fell on the floor :lol.

LMAO I personally don't, as there's some anime that to me are some of the highest points of story telling in a visual medium, Evangelion for one, and even though I don't like gundam much, I find gundam the 8th ms team to be a brilliant mini series. But I'm still perplexed at how Anime started to dominate a godzilla forum lol

Unfortunately the commercial reminds us of the GINO film.... Otherwise it's cute. Personally I don't mind it at all.

Word of mouth is what is going to make or break this film. So if it's great I don' think any car commercials will hurt it.
 
Was he bent and rolled up into such a small ball to get up like that. :lol

Yeah, not seeing the big deal. It's not like that commercial was meant to be taken seriously or anything. There have been comedic Godzilla commercials in the past.

I don't see it as them copying 98 Godzilla, but as 2014 Godzilla eating cars like their M&M's. :dunno
 
By the way, I haven't been keeping track of Godzilla news for years, but I just read on Wiki that Toho studios had retconed the monster from Godzilla 1998. Instead of being called Godzilla it's now simply "Zilla". Godzilla also killed a version of Zilla in Final Wars.



As much as I hate Godzilla 98. I hate Godzilla Final Wars more. Perhaps its because G98 is so far removed from looking like Godzilla or acting like Godzilla, it is easy to view as a non Godzilla film. G:FW is a Godzilla film and it is an awful one. Watching that clip reminded me of how much I hate it.

I love the idea of Goji ripping Gino a new one, but that scene was always nauseating. Pretty much every aspect of it is rancid. The soundtrack, the alien's performance, the crappy CG, the Jurassic Park III spinosaurus sound effects, etc.

Only thing I like about Final Wars is the Goji suit.
 
:exactly:

I absolutely love this shot! Gave me chills when I first watched it!!! :panic:

like a mother f'ing boss! I see why they made his arms hang down, it looks badass when he gets into his

pose. He looks like he's ready for a brawl, a very very bad brawl.
 
Saw this image posted on another site, I think it's pretty clear now, Godzilla's overall build and form was based hevily on bears.

Interesting. That looks dead-on.

His build and body type definitely seem to come mostly from a bear, and his natural reptilian aspects (positioning and shape of scales/spikes, etc) I think are obviously from alligator/crocodile.
