I searched some meaning of it in the internet and i found that M.U.T.O. in Latin means "Change" ,"Alter", "Modify, "Transform" and even "Mutate"...it was so interesting

heres the link : http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/muto

im not lying

the eyes only show up good with the last one with shadows

Nice to know. Hopefully this means we get to start seeing some more footage in the trailers. 

Well, GMAN, I don't think we can agree on Godzilla's Revenge much, hehehe. I just don't buy that whole internal struggle/stand up to bullies point of the film.

SpaceGodzilla, again, I don't think its really that awful. If you want to talk about plotholes and poor characters, I think Hedorah and Megalon has tons more than Spacegodzilla. I will agree SpaceGodzilla as a design was pretty dull and uninteresting.

As for Megagurius and Mothra, I don't see anything so wrong with those films to be honest. I see them as fairly average Godzilla entries. Nothing spectacular or exceedingly poor about those flicks. Just forgettable standard entries, nothing more, nothing less.

I do agree Final Wars was a bit of a disappointment. The film was more interested in these dull human mutant soliders than Godzilla himself. And while there were some classic monster mash, it was all too brief.

Hedorah and Sons of Godzilla do have fans, but they also have many detractors, and I just don't appreciate it as much of some you here I guess.

That's all good, the world would be a boring place if there are no disagreements.

@GodzillaThe King123

I don't think anything in Godzilla's Revenge was lost in translation. I just think fans were too busy looking at the wrong things in this movie to see it. I'm only analyzing everything that Ishiro Honda was standing for during this time period and there's a pleathora of evidence to support it: Japan's depression. The fact Honda always said movies, "should be fun." The idea that he was starting to make more movies for/about kids...etc...

This is the director of the original Godzilla, afterall. He does everything with a sense of meaning and purpose, just like the original film. Godzilla's Revenge is no different in purpose, but it is a very different type. The dream sequences are nothing more than a visualizations of Ichiro's enternal struggles. Or eye candy.

Yes, Ichiro's stint into violence is a little jarring at the end. And yes there are technical failings, particularly with the stock footage, but fans like Dupr004 pretty much prove my point: People don't like Godzilla's Revenge because it wasn't really a Godzilla movie. There's a lot more going on with it and it has little to do with Godzilla.

Meanwhile, Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla has more wrong with it than I can list. But lets attempt the impossible anyway:

The idea of controlling Godzilla? What a great idea. Too bad it goes nowhere and is completely forgotten by the middle of the movie.

Yuki wanting revenge on Godzilla for his brother's death? Interesting. Too bad he never develops believably to be compelling.

SpaceGodzilla? Lets confuse the audience by overexplaining his origin with two possibilities, make a suit/design that can barely move and incorporate it in the most boring battle in the series for a 40 minute stretch where the main characters casually converse inside MOGUERA like they're not in danger of being shot.

Shoehorn a cute Baby Godzilla and Fairy Mothra just to appeal to the child and female demograph as well? Check.

How should it end? Well lets recycle Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla II's ending with the red Death Ray.

Mix that with the fact that Miki is given an elevated role that does nothing, (They build her up with Project-T, kidnapped her...etc... and for what? All she ended up doing was watch the battle. The Yuki rescue was the absolute worst payoff after all of that unnecessary drama.) a half-assed love story, (You can barely call it one.) and she received a thank you from the Cosmos for saving the world. Why? Godzilla and G-Force did all the work.

I should spend more time talking about how awful the astroid battle was, but, horrifyingly enough, that's actually one of the film's least concerns.

Godzilla's Revenge may have used an overabundance of stock footage, but everything in that stock footage was lightyears better than vs. SpaceGodzilla. Revenge had a consisant script and an endpoint where everything added up to develop Ichiro. Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla, on the other hand, barely holds itself together to be called a movie.

As for the others, I can understand Godzilla vs. Megalon, but I think Godzilla vs. Hedorah and Son of Godzilla have too many fans to generalize those as series lows. I'd put Final Wars, vs. Megaguirus, Godzilla and Mothra: Battle for Earth and maybe Godzilla vs. Gigan beneath the stack before I considered those two. (Although, arguably, vs. Gigan has the same number of split fans.)

100% agree with you herro

working on the final product now!

Nice. Vey nice, OP. :)

U should really make some comics! I cant wait to see the final product! Keep p the exelent work!

I can't hate on Godzilla vs. Megalon or Godzilla's Revenge. I grew up with them. Like most of us, Godzilla vs. Megalon was my first Godzilla movie and got me hooked on him as a young boy. It's been 25+ years and still love it. 

My Artwork 

I absolutely loved all of those movies, especially godzillas revenge and hedorah

None of the movies listed in the topic are bad, in my opinion. :)

Now, my least favorite Godzilla film will probably be Godzilla:Final Wars. this movie was not an appropriate ending to the Toho Godzilla films. I understand why it has fans, bit I'm not one of them. I really don't like this movie. :/

That looks scary realistic O.O

Godzilla's Revenge, is it even a debate? I mean sure SpaceGodzilla had its problems and was by no means a great film, but at least it was a film. Godzilla's revenge was just stock footage jumbled on top of what is borderline a story. Essentially it's the trials the kid goes through then BOOM Godzilla stock footage. The film didn't need to be made. It could have been a 30 minute afterschool special, but a 90 minute film? God no.

Minilla talks, and grows whenever the stock footage is needed(i still remember the horror I felt when I saw him in final wars and knew a scene like that was coming again) Godzilla looks different in every other shot. If you go from Seamonster and Son of Godzilla into this movie you're basically rewatching a movie with a different title. 

Everything that some1 could criticize space Godzilla for isn't even applicable to this movie. Oh space Godzilla had bad effect. This movie didn't even have it's own effects, it runs off about 90% of the effects from the last movies. Space Godzilla had a lot of plots that went nowhere. Oh and the robbers in Godzilla's Revene mattered? Sure you could argue it showed the growth and how the kid wasn't scared but he literally escaped the robbers then went and fought the bully. So did the robbers need to happen? No, and if so then there never needed to be a new confrontation with the bully. The kid then goes and squeeks a bike horn causing some1 to fall down and pour paint on themselves, so good messsage Godzilla and Minilla teach a kid to stand up for himself to the point he becomes obnoxious. Not even a close call for me this movie is hardly that and takes the cake for worst

@MIKEYNAMEZ,

The picture you posted didn't show up. Can you give us a link so we can see it?

I love the zillo beast episodes. Has any one else noticed that tv shows get higher ratings when episodes have giant monsters. Well I not sure if it's necessarily true, but it seems like it. Anyways...I love the zillo beast episodes.

Hi

We are jewelers who work on film and TV shows we didnt work on Godzilla but for Christmas my wife made me this ring It is not the modern Godzilla. Im hoping she will design that for my birthday    https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10152352125965579.1073741844.62000645578&type=3

You know Murph Dog, I was actually wondering the same thing. I missed Godzilla encounter at Comic-Con (well, I also missed Comic-Con) and I'm curious if that footage will appear in the movie only edited.

Now that is some badassness right there. The King is back.

HOO-ATOMIC-RAY!

1. Godzilla 1956 (wait...how can this be?! Relax, I'm only putting this at the top for nostalgia reason, as it was Raymond Burr who introdued me to the Godzilla series, so hats off to him).

2. Gojira 1954

3. Godzilla vs King Ghidorah 1991

4. Godzilla vs Destroyah 1995

5. Godzilla vs King Kong 1962

6. GMK 2001

7. Destroy all Monsters 1968

8. Godzilla vs Mechgodzilla 1974

9. Godzilla 2000

10. Godzilla vs Biollante 1989 (just for the monster design-biollante was unique and interesting). 

Hehehe. Sure, Jaws can be considered a monster, Edwards. Real great whites, as dangerous and deadly as they can be, don't sink fishing boats or have a vendetta against the Brody family (The Jaws Brody family that it is-speaking of which, did Edwards call the lead actor in Godzilla "Brody" as homage to Jaws?).

Nice, Hopefully the CG will look superb ;)

GMAN2887-

Interesting take. I don't agree with all your choices but it nevertheless is interesting. So to each his own. :)

I don't know if SpaceGodzilla is as awful as you say. Sure, its probably the weakest of the Heisei entries, but it came across to me more as a run-of-the-mill monster, more medicore than awful, maybe the producers were running out of ideas. At least they did sort of acknowledge their half-ass entry by making their follow-up the Destroyah movie, which in my opinion, is much more superior to SpaceGodzilla.

As for Godzilla's revenge, I don't know. I respect your view, but I think you over-analyze it too much. Yeah I will give credit to the producers for trying something different than the usual WWE-style monster bash, but in my humble opinion, it didn't quite work out. Coming of age story and standing up to bullies? Maybe that message was lost in translation. I just found the kid to be annoying as hell. And in the dream sequence, Minya was pretty stupid running up to Gabara who is twice his height. Even if you want to stand up to him, you could use a little more imagination and use your brain to defeat them if you can't match their sheer muscle power. And you could tell the produers were running low on money if they have to recycle so much stock sequence.

Son of Godzilla...well, yeah its gear toward families which that in itself isn't bad, but something seem to be missing from that film, I don't know. It just didn't work out for me. I  found Minilla to be dumb and Godzilla was just a nasty dad. Yeah the Big G came around in the end, but still, he is not a really a good example of a parent if you asked me.

Hedorah...yeah the fanbase most certainly is split on that. Whatever arthouse pretension the film was supposed to have, it just didn't work out to me. Again, maybe the message was lost in translation, the film just ended up as bizzare mess. 

But still, I appreciate your analysis. I may not agree with some of your views, but I understand the depth of your analysis of these G flicks. :)

Gahh the wait is just becoming unbearable now!

An original Kaiju character by another artist created in zBrush for him by me. Slugera. 

It's already done? Cool! Eager to see the American Godzilla!!!

AMEN!!!!!!!! :D  I can't wait to see what this guy has created!  Just about a month and a half to go!  WE ARE ALMOST THERE, G-FANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@Daikaiju_Danielle:

Well said!  I have a lot of respect for how careful Legendary is being in terms of guarding the film's secrets.  Seeing new things is awesome, and THIS is the way to do it: new material that excites us and gets us talking, but reveals nothing! :)

This new material brings an old topic back into the light: Monarch.  The only reason we even know about... well, whatever it is, is because of the MUTOResearch website.  Just what the heck is it?!?!?!?!  Could it be the organization that we assume at this point is tracking the monsters, and MUTO is just their research wing?  Could it be a codename for a person?  WE DON"T KNOW!!!!!!!!  But one thing's for sure... judging by these pictures, they sure are keeping tabs on the Brody family.  It looks like Monarch has eyes everywhere, and they are definitely monitering and tracking Ford, Elle, and Sam, Orwell style.  They must consider them assets or threats in some way... but... what... could... that... BE?!?!?!?!  Perhaps they are trying to draw out the one man who knows their secret... Joe Brody.  No pictures of him have turned up on the site yet.  I think they are trying to get to him to silence him.  Maybe he's in hiding, and they don't know where he is?

A.N.T.I.C.I.P.A.T.I.O.N. :O

Yes!!!! Only 49 days left. Can't wait!!

A few people have thought that, it is an interesting theory.

SIMULACRUM

There has already been a topic regarding the recent updates on MutoResearch.net.

http://www.godzilla-movies.com/community/forums/topic/32793

Locking this.

Edwards said he drew inspiration for the Mutos from Starship Troopers and Alien. Just by observation, I can see the ST influence, but not Alien. Is it possible that the Mutos plant their offspring in a host similar to Alien. Possibly, Godzilla is walking up on a Muto who has just done such in a "2nd" Godzilla in the Honolulu shot, which is now dead. The Halo sequence in San Fran, could be the offspring of the Host and the Muto... A mutated Godzilla... Maybe, far fetched...
