I was going to whine and complain but that was one heck of a trailer. Never seen anything godzilla before. So might give this a shot.

All I know is that the director of this, Gareth Edwards, directed Monsters which is fuckin' great and you should all watch it. Based on just that I have high hopes for Godzilla, even though I've never seen a Godzilla movie before.

Wasn't expecting this heavy atmosphere. Very well done teaser. I love the subtle and grim background music. I think the mysteriousness worked way better, than fully showing the creature.

I don't know what to expect from the movie itself, but Gareth Edwards, I have faith in you. +good cast

Yes yes, nice contrast to the boisterous, Hans Zimmer, Inception-esque in your face trailers that have been so popular lately.

Gareth Edwards is a plus, but I don't know how to feel about the screenwriters. We'll see.

ok, for me a major component will always be "character" design. while i thought the trailer was pretty decent, our glimpse of the monster himself was not very Gojira-like

I know what you're thinking, punk. You're thinking "did he fire six shots or only five?" Now to tell you the truth I forgot myself in all this excitement. But being this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world and will blow you head clean off, you've gotta ask yourself a question: "Do I feel lucky?" Well, do ya, punk?

The first one was Americanized (American setting)
The second one was only influenced and isn't a remake
The third one wasn't a remake. It was just more popular in the US so sequels were made

1: you know what americanizing a movie with different scenes is called? A remake
2: 12 monkeys remade a short film by the name of La Jetee and made it full length
3: Fistfull of dollars is a remake of this

all 3 are remakes, and if the departed gets a pass in your book for americanizing something then by the same logic godzilla gets a pass as well cause its doing the same thing.

1: No it isn't. A remake is to do something again. If you change the setting, the characters etc it is too different to be considered a remake and is said to be influenced

1: thats still a remake, It doesnt matter if you change things up or not if your completely reshooting the movie its a fucking remake simple as that.

2: from that link did you not read the part that said "After Universal Studios acquired the rights to remake La Jetée as a full-length film"

And whats wrong with Americans remaking a genre of movies they fucking started, kaiju is japanese and so is godzilla but no matter how you look at it they are giant monster movies which started in the 20's with the lost world and more importantly king kong, the japanese remade king kong in japanese a few times so why is it unfair for american to do the same?

yeof what thay showed it was quite accuarte minus the Fact how Meiji him self was dicpted when he was a Fantasstic milltary leader druning the wars not a Puppet like Showa was during WW2 [ plus the casting irked me Saigo was well over 50 when he died the Watanabe was far to pyung to play the person based on him ] and accoring to most historins Saigo also only had one Eye for the last five years of his life [ arrow in the eye ] kinda Xiahou Dun style] but not in war]

the rest is close as you will get from hollywood [ one other big fact is tom cruses character is the worst deviavtion from real phyical history] any way

Culural History on the other hand is all togeather diffreeant cause the fact that the anti outsider bais is a confuciani thing as han you said the the Tang Huang when the finger bone of BUDDA came in ot China why should you the son of Heaven worship a corpse of an outsider]

so no way any Member of the Very confuciani Court would have asked the outsider for help not a chance

you wouldnt paint over the mona lisa because it would destroy the original, you wouldnt give a shit if someone repainted the mona lisa from scratch, which is what people have done for over a century and a half, thats this movie

This isnt destroying the original godzilla movies, this is remaking and coinciding with the original, you can still watch the original movie whenever the fuck you want. the comparison to the mona lisa makes absolutely no sense

and if your worried about the integrety of the series, then dont worry about that japan has already fucked that up for decades long before it was even a cult classic in the west

I'm surprised to find that I didn't hate the trailer. The smoky city desolation, the awesome silhouette and the intense skydive.

That being said woulda loved greater Jap presence and I'm worried that their maybe too many characters involved (going by the trailers closing role call).

waahh waaaahh waaahhhh godzilla's ruined!

Good grief, go back to 1998 for fuck's sake. If anything, this is as close to the original as possible.

But oh wait, it's absolute shit because it doesn't take place in Japan, and because the movie is full of white people, therefore I am then able to obviously discern what the plot is going to be about from one trailer, period. Japan bestest nation in da wuurrllldddd! Whito pigu go hoommmee!

you wouldnt paint over the mona lisa because it would destroy the original, you wouldnt give a shit if someone repainted the mona lisa from scratch, which is what people have done for over a century and a half, thats this movie

This isnt destroying the original godzilla movies, this is remaking and coinciding with the original, you can still watch the original movie whenever the fuck you want. the comparison to the mona lisa makes absolutely no sense

and if your worried about the integrety of the series, then dont worry about that japan has already fucked that up for decades
Even if you re-paint the picture it will never be as accurate as the original. That's my point. When films are remade they always do certain parts badly etc

Do you also feel that songs should never be covered or sampled? The idea isn't always to make it exactly like the original, but to bring new ideas or movements to an old one. 2 artists painting the same scene in different styles doesn't inherently make one of them shit.

If the plot takes current affairs into account, Godzilla could attack anywhere in the pacific-- fukushima's radiation.

The first one was Americanized (American setting)
The second one was only influenced and isn't a remake
The third one wasn't a remake. It was just more popular in the US so sequels were made

They aren't trying to recreate a foreign culture in any of them

1: you know what americanizing a movie with different scenes is called? A remake
2: 12 monkeys remade a short film by the name of La Jetee and made it full length
3: Fistfull of dollars is a remake of this
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yojimbo_(film)

all 3 are remakes, and if the departed gets a pass in your book for americanizing something then by the same logic godzilla gets a pass as well cause its doing the same thing.


anf fit full of dollrard sucked while m7 was good cause the idea work a bit bettrr

This trailer tells me they're not going for a high-adrenaline thrill as most summer blockbusters do. It's going to be slow. It's going to be punishing. It's going to be Godzilla.

I don't think I've ever seen Godzilla. Maybe I'll watch this and be one of those, "new fans of an old thing," that everyone seems to get annoyed by.

the king of the kaiju, the destroyer of all monsters. I will go see this in theatres. Looks dope. I honestly don't care who makes a movie as long as it's good. All the naysayers are entitled to their own opinion, but so am I, and I say fuck yes.
