Another Godzilla movie

hope they go with the Japanese look for Godzilla minus the guy in a rubber suit.

Neat.

I hope they don't screw this up.

There was a Godzilla movie I happened to catch a few years back: I believe it was, Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All Out Attack, and it had the best, meanest, rubber-suited Godzilla I had ever seen. The distance shots were very realistic; up close, the pupilless, glowing eyes were extremely effective in conveying the monstrousness of Big G in all his glory. Best of all, there was even an underwater scene where swimming Godzilla was CGI'd. When I saw that I thought, this is how it should be done.

I hope they do it this time.

Kaiju FTW!!!!!

I saw that one, too. My son loves it. He thinks it's hilarious.

Your son has good taste (must be genetic 😉 ).

I hope this is far better than Godzilla '85

It's a little cheesy in parts, but in general it's a really badass movie. It had one of my favorite versions of Godzilla in it when I was younger.

Godzilla wouldn't be Godzilla w/o a lil' bit o' cheese. But what impressed me was how well they made the rubber suit work this time around. And the shot of CGI Godzilla: I reflect on the American Zilla and sigh as to what might've been.

This will be lame. Americans should never touch Gojira again.

Dunno. The original "Gojira" was one of the darkest movies you'll find.

and it also had a message in it.

I never saw the Japanese version, only the Americanized one. Still, the overall feel of the movie was great; some of the musical score is classic (eg, G coming ashore; the children singing/praying in the wake of destruction). Even the b/w (which I bemoaned as a kid) adds a quality which would probably dissipate if they ever colorized it. But some scenes of G, or shots of the back of a Japanese actor's head while they were doing all the talking ("Burr shots"😉 often took me out of the moment.

I think it looks pretty damn cool!

^Looks like a mix between Zilla and Godzilla.

Might want to re-type those links again.
