Good effort but take my advice & try not to share it on anything directly related with WB. They blocked my Godzilla (2014) tribute video (for some lame copyright issue) on youtube for France, Germany & USA! Grrr! Anyway, I've also uploaded it on vimeo :D

I find it amusing, as well as very selective, that Toho's opinion of the reinvision of their baby as objective seeing as their taste in films is scewed by the very films they are known for. I don't have to remind anyone that old Spider-Man, Batman & Superman issues have some of the most dated artwork within their treasured pages when compared to the photoshopped artwork of today. No one can deny that they are classics & the stories they tell are still honored & valued today. Toho's Godzilla movies are no different, especially when the depth of their mythology easily rivals anything found in the pages of Marvel or DC. Don't confuse technilogical limitations with a lack of passion or even a message. In fact, in this respect, any Godzilla film can easily rival those greats such as Scarface or even the Godfather itself. Only NOW has the King of the Monsters been given the type of attention, respect and budget that he so rightfully deserves.
So, techological feats aside, if those as passionate as Toho are pleased with the work that someone else has done with their own creation, that is MORE than enough for me.
Honestly, I've been calling us, and Gamera fans, G-fans colloquially. It just has a simple but clear flow to it.
Good luck with whatever name you guys settle on. How does "Gojiranuts" sound? Just wondering.
Gods!! Or maybe zillas, atoms (atomic bombs haha) Etc. etc.
On the xtended trailer, if you pause at 2:03 at the right time, you will see Godzilla and the winged MUTO fighting.. well it looks like the MUTO is just wrapped around Godzilla. It's kinda hard to see though.
NOICCE! GOOD JOB!!

I know how movies are produced. I worked for Universal Studios for twenty years. I help market some of cinema's all-time greats films. The original Godzilla movie IS a great movie. The Godzilla franchise is cinema's most prolific franchise. There are more Godzilla movies than there are James Bond movies. But that doesn't mean I must shower everything Godzilla with an abundance of praise. Saying something positive or nothing at all is impossible. The arts, politics, religion and science are dependant on different opinions. You and I probably agree on more things that we disagree. For instance: I bet you have no problem with saying that Godzilla 1998 sucked.... See, we agree.
I have that Burning Godzilla ornanment! It's sitting on my desk right now.
So easy to criticize a legacy rather than offer something positive.
My mother taught me that it was best to keep one's mouth shut if one didn't have something positive to say -- of course, what would the Internet be without all of these "definite opinions?"
Who said Godzilla and the Godfather are equateable? And, by the way, Godfather 3? Yeah, no. Ishiro Honda's original film is one of the most important entries in the history of cinema. In Japan, its release also symbolized (ironically) that their economy was stabilizing after the horror that America exposed them to with our atomic weapons. Granted, they needed a reality check, but no one was prepared for that level of overkill. No one believes these films (with the exception of the first) are high art. However, if you know anything about how they're produced, you might have a bit more respect for all of the hard work that goes into them -- even the fluffier ones.
That said, the Heisei Era and Millenium Era films are all quite dark and rather excellent -- I am, of course, referring to the original language versions as the western overdubs destroy all tension. In the original Japanese, these films are thrillers. Overdubbed, they are camp adventure films.
It could've fit the music a bit better, but with the limited amount of clips we got, it's pretty good. However, I will have to agree with GMan when I say that the song is pretty overused and not related to the movie in any way.
@Something Real
Alrighty! Thank you very much for telling me! :D I was just curious.
Over the years. I have a Heisei, 74', 54', 01' and Burning Godzilla. They're these suckers:
@Junkerde : Out of everyone,i think you are the rudest member of this forum,i know that you are very talented,but that doesnt mean you can be rude and arrogant to people
@Junkerde
No, it's not a difficult thing to grasp. We got it. That's not exactly the point.
I understand if you WANT a picture. That you would LIKE one. And that's completely fine. I'm not saying that's wrong or anything.
And I don't exactly know him either.
My point is that you shouldn't say something didn't happen just because there isn't any proof. All he was doing was sharing. I just don't think he quite deserves for people to instantly tell him he's lying just because he can't prove it. That's all I'm saying.
And I'm not telling you what to do, just trying to politely remind you so don't take it the wrong way, please. I don't want to cause trouble.
@junkerde
We're working on finding the images again. Imgur isn't much better, but it will be hosted somewhere else.
Looks great. It'll fit right next to my other five Godzilla ornaments.
Oy... I love Linkin Park, but man is it a cliche to use a song by them for a youtube music video. Especially one that's ELEVEN years old... And doesn't fit lyrically... Pretty cringeworthy. Could've at least used one of their newer ones...
i think best thing for you and MANY members here to do is use the search function to see if what you are about to post has already been posted. roughly 1/3 of overall posts are reposts so lets clean that up. cmon guys
Oh and thank you for the compliment.
@SOMETHING REAL
Your welcome.
I already posted this in the merchandise thread, where it belongs.
And the it's made by Hallmark.
Sorry, I have let all you guys down, I'm a fool. Well sorry that I got your hopes up. Some of you guys didn't notice, some of you guys did. :(
For me, it was sort of hard to see, becuase of the darkness in the area it is at.
wow it's not like everyone has already seen this or anything
Oh heres the link.

Mmmmmm? It's ok ,not great, but ok.
If anyone remembers that godzilla films before 85 and after the first 5 or 6 films were based for kids, so the movies would have to be cheesy for the kids point of view,kinda like Barney. If people post that most godzilla films suck or were bad I must disagree. Every movie of godzilla in the 90s except for zilla was an awesome film.
