Given the height of previous incarnations of Godzilla and his own enemies,I'd say something around 120m-140 meters is in order. I don't like the imperial system since it seems so jumbled up to me,so I'm sticking with those measurement scales. But either way,he should be noticeable from a distance,seem like a mountain to a small town,and also be able to sneak (weird word to use?) around the highest skyscrapers in the biggest cities.

"I even like to believe that was their original plan with the 1998 film until it totally bombed." Did TOHO have any input in that film beyond giving Tristar copyright permission?

Wasn\'t the second kaiju in an airport? This one was either in a subway or anywhere with trains. So I say its a third Kaiju. Though I do still have trouble finding out what type of bug it is. All I can see is a giant foot(its not godzilla, looks insect like) that was black and had scales with claws. But it looked like a bug/reptile hybrid from my perspective. But I will look at it as many times as I can and let you G fans know if I see anything new. Yes I understand its hard to see the leg through all the debris but if you look really closely you can see it. All I can say now is that it wasn\'t spider like. Thats all the information I have for you guys today. Also I think the main character in the train scene was Aron Taylor Johnson from kickass.

[i]GMK[/i] the worst? Wow. Hardly. While I agree it's a little overrated by some fans I'd place [i]GMK[/i] as one of the best entries in the series behind the top Showa movies. For starters, the "Godzilla is the souls of Japanese soldiers" is inaccurate. He's a manifestation of those lost during the Pacific War, both American and Japanese-- it never says simply one or the other. Furthermore, this is not a new idea. Ishiro Honda himself even presumed the original Godzilla was the vengeful embodiment of those lost in the Pacific War. For decades film scholars and critics have assumed that was a symbolic reason for Godzilla's attack. The only thing that [i]GMK[/i] did was expand on that idea. I for one am glad they took the character and explored the mysticism behind him. It makes Godzilla that much more eerie and creepy. And most importantly it got away from all the pseudo-science that plagues that last three decades of the series. Admittedly Mothra and King Ghidorah were monsters too popular for the underdog roles they were put in, but that was Toho's fault. (Angirus and Varan were the original monsters written for the movie.) Regardless, it did help the movie's success and Kaneko was mindful of Godzilla's 35 year relationship with King Ghidorah. While it was odd to see King Ghidorah in such a role, at the very least the rivalry between the two monsters was well built. King Ghidorah was easily the strongest of the guardian monsters and his new role gave the creature something different to do for the first time in three and a half decades. Mothra was pretty much the standard character she's always been, if not a little watered down: A mythical, guardian creature. While I agree General Tachibana's sacrifice would've been far more effective than the ending we got, I like the idea of Godzilla being killed by his own biology. Although he is of mythical proportions it was made very clear earlier in the movie (by Isayama's ghost) that he is also an [i]animal[/i], and like all living creatures, can be killed. Thus the idea of damaging his body came full circle and Godzilla was defeated by his own biological imbalance. It's not a perfect movie, but it got people talking differently about Godzilla-- What he means to the Japanese culture, pop culture and how relevant he is in a post-9/11 world. Remember this was mere months after the WTC was attacked. These are ideas that were talked about amongst critics and film professors when the movie was released. Conversation like this didn't spark for any of the other Millennium movies amongst such people. But on topic to the worst of the worst, my vote is, easily, [i]Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla[/i]. I typically enjoy every Godzilla movie, but [i]Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla[/i] has so many script problems and ideas that never go anywhere I don't know where to start. I could fill a novel with the flaws in that movie. A close second would be [i]Godzilla vs. Megalon[/i], but I'll take it over [i]vs. SpaceGodzilla[/i] since it has a more coherent script and is funny as hell.

minya, gabara, or godzilla in GMK

link? I'm too lazy to do the whole thing.

Herkame, Godzilla was at his biggest at about 334 ft tall, or 100 meters. Given that Gareth Edwards says his monster will be the biggest yet, but how much bigger? He said it's about the equivalent of adding an antenna to a skyscraper to make it even bigger. I'm guessing Godzilla will be around the 120, 150 meter range, if you're asking about the system Americans use, then it'd be about 131.234 to about 164.042. In "feet", Godzilla will be around 393.701 ft. to about 492.126 ft. I'm guessing the latter, based on how big he's presented as in the "teaser" trailer. The Jaegar, Cherno Alpha, which I believe is one of the bigger Jaegars, is about 85 meters tall, about 280 feet tall. Godzilla (2014) will be easily a hundred feet taller, if not more.

try to watch the 17 more movies that i havent seen

A bipedal animal, mostly back with some grey. A tail with spikes on both sides. It would be taller than Godzilla, but skinnier, and more hunched over. Huge!!! Arms, they are at least 75% to the ground. It has a fairly short neck, and a head similar to space Godzilla's and king Gidorah's combined. Also, its back has long spikes like a Gastonia's (look it up if you don't know what it is) that get shorter as they go towards his tail. The tail is round, and looks segmented. It is named "Terrazon" oh, and its spiked tail is about as long as it is, and the spikes around 1/10 as long as its tail. Only at the end of the tail does it have sideways pointing spikes. Well, there you go. My Kaiju

off topic and i apologize ahead of time, but has anyone actually gathered any news on how big godzilla will be or at least an idea? will he be as big as the pacific rim monsters and jaegers or much bigger? i had seen the teaser of his tail and the helicopters but sometimes those kinds of posters can be decieving. let me know. thanks guys!

I'm pretty sure that was a prototype and an unfinished Trailer. Maybe the real one is still going under process, especially CGI wise, seeing that they used SDCC 2012 footage for temporarily replacements.

Yeah, Wikipedia doesn't have anything about it, and I'm not seeing anything for it.

Don't worry InstinctiveGigan, judging by your reactions, this news is false. But yeah, I'll see if I can change the title.

If its true, you spoiled what could've been a devastating scene to the soul. Seriously, at least put spoiler alert casting in the title.

What they all said :)

If there are then this movie is going all-out on the devastation and dishing out some harsh sorrow scenes. As for the news itself its the first I've heard of it. Wouldn't the people getting crushed be CGI though? And dead corpses can be done through props and dummies, wouldn't think they would actually go out of their way to actually cast kids for the purpose of lying around dead.

I know what you're talking about. Basing my speculation on the fact that Godzilla's teeth are too small, and his claws are too big, I'd assumed that it was a second kaiju. Not a big kaiju, or one with long, thin claws or teeth. Based on the fact that the bug monster is much smaller than Godzilla, I think it is very safe to assume that we got a very brief glimpse at the new kaiju.

Watching it again ...It's pretty blurry....still trying to see what you saw...

Ohhh the alien disquized as a human is false information. I saw the trailer 6 times and still have it downloaded and there was no drunk guy.

Nah it was a bretty big arm, almost half the size of the train and had black scales.

So true, plus, I think most of us are satisfied for now :)

Or maybe even grow all big then gets its arse handed to itby Godzilla

Any generous folks please send 2nd trailer to Locrian727@yahoo.com. Much appreciated.

If Toho is as awesome as I believe they are, THIS film will be Godzilla's future. Godzilla will boost in his likeability and fame even further than Toho ever would've dreamed of with their films. I even like to believe that was their original plan with the 1998 film until it totally bombed. Thus the smart decision would be to have Godzilla remain a Warner Bros. character ever-expanding in fame and awesomeness. But that all depends on the success on this film, both quality and box office-wise. Fingers crossed!

This is Godzilla's revival. Toho will be the company in charge of distribution in Japan with Warner Bros in charge everywhere else. I'm sure if this bombs though, like the 1998 American 1, Toho will Gladly start a new era like they did last time to help us forget about it

I think that this new film is Godzilla's revival by Toho. They are trying to not only revive Godzilla, but they are trying to bring Godzilla to the Western world in a serious and dramatic way.

toys, posters and trailers and awesomeness

What the hell is going on with the guy standing standing between the police car and the flipped cab??? Its like he's pooed himself mid-running and is unsure about whether he should keep going, either that or he's decided to start doing a freaky dance...

I'm quite inclined to sidestep seeing unfinished material, would rather wait until the trailer is finalized and officially released (or leaked, as the way anything to do with this movie is behaving).

Totally agree, Breaking Bad hype is rife. When the official marketing gets released I'm sure The Great Heisenberg will start speaking. I love seeing stuff getting revealed but is it only me but I'm loving the mystery surrounding this film, usually by now marketing practically gives you the whole movie on a silver platter both visually and contextually (all the recent superhero movies anyone?).

Maybe its a parasite offspring of a Kaiju. Bit like with Destoroyah or the Cloverfield monster.

Being in the U.K I have to wait till 11th Nov for the release of Pacific Rim :( As for Godzilla, I wouldn't even remotely expect anything, I know its the same companies and relevant subject matter, but unfortunately we live in a stingey age. They won't dish out any cool preview material, the film hasn't even had any online footage officially posted yet, and although I wish there was a sneak peek, I have very high doubts. Sorry for the pessimism.

There are a lot of review copies out there and there's a lot of people that got it early, so if there was something, I bet we would have heard of it by now.

I'll post it my uncle will get it on blu-ray tuesday

Oh yea

oh...

I would greatly appreciate you sending me the teaser I missed it :( gvollucci@gmail.com

I'd love aliens to be in the movie, but doubt they will be. As for him not talking about it, the movie is a little under a year away, and his emmy winning show just ended so I think the world is a little more interested in Breaking Bad than Godzilla right now since a large portion of the population doesn't even know about the movie(no thanks to legendary's questionable hold off on public teasers)

Like BigBadBen said about the King Kong game, in the Godzilla game you play as both the monster and some human characters at different times . While playing as Godzilla you roam the world fighting other monsters choosing to destroy or save cities. While as human yon can see and experience the destructive force of a monster and witness the destruction you caused or other monsters caused.

hey @gigan could you send me the trailer also? my email is- andrewalvarado1929@yahoo.com
