Probably around 35-60 pages.
This is really well made! I like how you made it look like the new Godzilla, instead of just making your design and branding that as Godzilla 2014 as some people does. Awesome.
48-64 pages is average;
wait, could this be happening with Godzilla:Awakening too?!
@SVANYA
freaking amazing!
Thanks for reassuring me, Svanya. I just have younger brothers and sisters who like Godzilla and will want to see the movie. I guess I freaked out a little there. XD
cool, maybe godzilla will get to try some turtle soup sometime
;)
what is up with the dog that they mentioned,that kind of threw me off
Cool, great interview
i wanna see this movie twice just because of this
A Director's Cut will not have more adult content, or be a different version, all it would contain is extended scenes and cut footage from the movie. :D
Sorry to be that guy but there's a slight correction needed in the intro paragraph. Weta WORKSHOP not Weta Digital helped out with the creation. Plus they were in NEW ZEALAND while the director was in the UK.
All this info is in the actual interview. Just an idea but perhaps you better listen to your own interviews before you write up the introductions. It might help you look like you know what you're talking about.
@GTBetta35
To be fair a new movie hasn't officially been announced yet. It's simply likely, especially since the magazine is owned by Kadokawa. If it is a new movie it will most likely not be from an American production company, but Daiei themselves with traditional effects work.
I suppose there is indeed something for everyone in this genre. I don't think these movies hold enough merit for repeat viewings...
Update: While we are still unclear of the exact storyline and everyone is coming up with their theories on the origins of the MUTOs etc, it seems more hints have been outed by Gareth Edwards in his interview with Verge.
I understand that while there were people who find my theory on the MUTOs and Godzilla plausible, there were others who dismissed it altogether, especially on the part where I said Godzilla may have been leeched on by a micro-organism in the ocean which was later on mutated by cross-experiments by scientists on land which went out of control.
In the interview, G Edwards talked about the design of the MUTO monsters, where he said they were designed in such a way that when people looked at them, they could see that it was ' evolved from the same organism'.
Wow, this is a great interview! I knew WETA was involved somehow, but it looks like their involvement is pretty extensive! They have created some of the most incredible and beautiful creatures of the modern era, and thinking about what they have done with Godzilla gives me goosebumps! Every time Gareth Edwards opens his mouth, my confidance in this film grows. We very well could be looking at the next visionary director/storyteller/creator of this generation. Its incredible thinking of what this man is capable of, with this film and beyond, and I truly trust him with Godzilla's legacy. And you heard the man... its up to us to see that a sequel is made. And I'm sure there isn't anyone on this site that needs to be asked twice to see this movie!
Thank you for sharing this with us all! :D
So hyped! Loving this interview!
What about the return of Godzilla
This was hilarious! :D But poor Shogo! That whole dubbing thing was kind of insluting, but it looks like it was filmed with parody and fun in mind, so if he was down with it, its cool. :) Plus, that video they showed was great! Very emotional. :') And funny! Any compilation that includes that shot from "Megalon" of Godzilla with his "peace" fingers is good in my book!
That is cool Patrick Stewert is a G Fan, I didn't known that. G FANS UNITE!
Great topic! It's hard to beat the original Godzilla's head peaking over that hill on Odo Island, but Terror of Mechagodzilla's entrance is rediculously awesome! Mothra vs Godzilla has one of the best too! I also like Godzilla's arival in Godzilla vs Hedorah, where he lumbers in front of the setting sun. Its a great visual! But for nastalgia, I'm gonna have to go with Godzilla 2000 though. :) Foggy night, a shrouded boat hovers through the air, and then... THE EYE! Just perfect! :D
Wow, this sucks. I've had that book pre-ordered since August. :/ If I hadn't read this I wouldn't have known my order had been canceled. Thank you so much for the heads up. I just re-pre-ordered it. Hopefully it sticks this time.
How has no one commented on this?!?!?!?! This is a great interview! Every time Gareth Edwards opens his mouth, my confidance in this film grows. We very well could be looking at the next visionary director/storyteller/creator of this generation. Its incredible thinking of what this man is capable of, with this film and beyond, and I truly trust him with Godzilla's legacy. And you heard the man... its up to us to see that a sequel is made. An I'm sure there isn't anyone on this site that needs to be asked twice to see this movie!
Thank you for sharing this! :D
Aw, come on, I need some more comments. XD
NO WAY?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! :D THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was wondring how long it would take for Kadokawa to jump back on the Gamera bandwagon! A 13th film would be a welcome addition to an ever growing series of updated, rebooted, and original kaiju films/series that we are getting now! Could our favorite genre be heading towards a new Golden Age?!?!?!?! We can only pray!
A lot of people you wouldn't expect like Godzilla, he is very relevant in popular culture. Nice video. :D
Wow... well, dare I admit that they are three of my favorite kaiju films of all time? :P Of course, I love Spacegodzilla too, so maybe I'm the one with the problem. It sucks being an outsider in a fandom comprised almost exclusively of outsiders.
also amazon prime is now charging $20 more monthly then before, so yeah there you go guys.
Glad I didnt had the money to Pre-order mine < )
I feel blessed.
Although I've got no problem with the Mutos themselves, I have to say I will be seriously dissapointed if they are the only opponents of Godzilla in the film. I just can't buy those little things being the ancient enemy that threatens Godzilla's life, unless there are a whole frickin' lot of them, which would still be pretty weak.
Well, Ghidorah's origins aren't fully explained, so it's possible in the Godzilla universe that there is a planet Ghidorah's are a naturally occurring lifeform.
But then, if there are more than one, why don't the aliens ever harness/control multiple specimens? Surely it would be more efficient than summoning one at a time.
That, and I prefer to think of Ghidorah as an extremely unique and rare entity, just like Godzilla. Being one of the only/last of their kind kinda gives their rivalry more punch imo.
As far as all three attacking at the same time, each of those films kinda exists in their own continuity. They aren't 'cousins' or anything like that in the films. I feel like each of these are the same monster. Just different interpretations for each cinematic universe. Just like Godzilla 1954, Godzilla 1998, and Godzilla 2014 are not all different individual Godzilla's, but rather reinterpretations of the same character.
HOW ABOUT A FAN ARTBOOK??
That article is not supposed to be a serious argument about whether or not a kaiju could really exist, it was just made to provide a pseudo-scientific explanation for specifically the kaiju of the Godzilla series, basically just for fun. It's not actually trying to make any point.
While on the whole, the movie is inferior to it's 1974 predecessor; that entrance at least was AWESOME. It was probably the best Godzilla entrance in the whole series :-)
1. I think it's really in the cave system where the Mutos live.
2. Someone else already adressed this.
3. Definitely true.
4. Based on the description of the SXSW footage, the goo-covered object is probably part of a nuclear sub which the Hokmuto dragged onto land for some reason.
5. Probably true.
6. Since Godzilla and the Mutos are both naturally evolved creatures from a time when there was a lot of radiation on Earth, and there were presumably a lot of other radiation-eating creatures, it wouldn't make much sense for his main weapon to only make his opponents stronger. Although the atomic breath has always been said to be a beam of concentrated radiation, it's obvious that it also produces intense heat, which is what really causes damage.
7. I don't understand what you're saying here.
Yeah this was bull****! I had mine ordered since it was up for preorder back around Christmas and I just got that email today...so mad.
Yeah, I'm not going to try and defend the 280 ton number. I'm not throwing it out there to say that it's actually a Godzilla sized creature's weight. In fact, just between this post and the last, I started to look up estimated weights of animals at various heights, and 400 tons seems like a commonly used number for a 100 foot creature, though I imagine the 'margin of error' on such estimates is pretty large.
The actual weight is less important than the fact that the article was using easy to criticize comic book stats to make points, rather than being fair minded about it's argument. That's more what bothered me about it than anything else.
As far as the 'Square/Cube' law is concerned, I understand the general principle, that volume grows faster than area as an object gets bigger.......but it only works in predictable ratios if you know the density of the material you are working with. So it would only give you an exact estimated weight if you knew the density of the animal which was getting bigger. Which, the main part of my first post in the thread was the density is incredibly variable based on what type of animal, with a very wide possiblity of functional ranges.
That, and while I don't actually know the FORMULA itself, I am heavily skeptical that it would spit out a number of 20,000 tons, even if you did use the density of an animal like a crocodile or a person, sprouted up to 350 feet. Maybe it would....but I doubt it.
