I don't care if you, your friend, or anyone else here are scientists. That doesn't change the fact that you're getting your panties in a bunch over a very minor character detail. Godzilla having gills isn't really anything more than a minor detail that justifies one of his abilities (the ability in question being Godzilla staying underwater for very, very long periods of time). It's the equivalent of saying that Anguirus has a very flexible backbone that allows him to roll up into a ball like an armadillo. It's a change to the character, but it's so minor that it doesn't warrent a bunch of forum threads discussing it, let alone one thread.
And even if Godzilla doesn't look like he has gills in the brief glimpses we see of him in the latest trailer, how in the blue hell do you explain this?
This is an image I got from this thread. You see those flaps of skin on the side of Godzilla's neck? They look different than the rest of the skin all around that area. I'm no expert in biology, but I think I've seen enough goldfish, sharks, and what have you to know that those look like gills. If those aren't supposed to be gills, than just what are they? Seriously, I'm all ears as to what those skinflaps could possibly be.
now onto the other monsters. That's just kick ass that Talaghan is now confirmed to be in the the film! I also like that fact that there is the possibility that there are giong to be more than just 2 HUGE mutos in the movie! and that there is possibly going to be a WATER MUTO??!!! THAT'S JUST KICK ASS!!! wonder who will be the BIG DADDY boss muto?
I see what you mean about the gills, but keep in mind that he is most likely supposed to me a mutated monster. which means that different aspects from different animals could have mixed with him during his mutation and that if there was more than one godzilla, that evolution could have had a playing part in it. that's just my opinion. i actually think it's cool that you went to a scientist about that. Now there are actual scientists studying Godzilla!!!
Yeah i saw that image too. tried to post it but computer wouldn't let me make a disscussion. I remember someone saying how they worked a movie theater and some guy was telling him that he had seen a early release of the film and that the atomic breath looked " different". the picture of that toy actually looks different but cool. even though it is a kids toy, i hope they come out with better looking figures. i can't wait for the 12 inch and 24 inch figures.
Well, people are likely more in shock about how everything is crumbling around them first before noticing the giant culprit, and those who thought they saw him would likely be interrogated and notified that they experience heavy trauma from the event that caused them to believe they were seeing it.
@ LegendarysGodzilla...In the original Godzilla, he is absolutley described as being a dinosaur. And in Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah(Heisei series,) they show the the dinosaur that becomes Godzilla.So I'm not sure why you would say he isn't. And many of the movies, including the original, never mention any hunger for nuclear power. This occurred in '85 and beyond.
Too bad they didn't show them actually using the Atomic breath.
Wow, I haven't seen a movie in theaters twice since Freddy vs. Jason, that had to be over a decade ago. Yeah, it's getting at least two viewings from me than it's bootleg until the blu ray comes out.
it's definatly close to the final desgin but that 'brazil face' is not the actual desgin,compare that to the what we see in the trailer and the empire magazine cover, that 'brazil face' looks very diffrenet and unfinished, however it was probably close
i supose this, after attacking him with so many 'tests' in the pacific up to 63, godzilla dissapears for about 50 or 60 years then attacks the nulcear plant (if that was him) or is reawaken by the radiation from that plant which could've been attacked by the MUTO monsters, who were probably engineered by MUTO to combat godzilla should he or anouther(depending on the actual plot or the characters perspective) but i'm not sure on that, about half of the answer will be in the Godzilla: The Awakening prequel comic
@Danielle That is how everyone thinks. "I don't like it! SO ITS NOT TRUE".
At this figure. Its for kids. We probably all owned dumber stuff as children.
Best of all-- this proves my point. The Brazil Face is relevant and is the final design.
That is the most awesome MUTO drawing i have ever seen in my life!
Depends how good it is really, which i am pretty sure its gonna be awsome, so about...
cant say really...
Also REALLY? Is the old school cry to your mommy threat the best thing you can through at me LOL. Your so weak >:D Go cry me an ocean so I can fight my next enemy ( destroya) in a water battle. But make sure you put duct tape on your mouth so I don't have to hear you ***** while your filling up the pool.
Or godzilla has been taking a nap for 60 years...
Cacoon perhaphs?
Saberblackcrow@ Woah someone needs a breath mint for his atomic breath. Hey I get mad at a lot of things com on dude this is no reason to turn into the incredible hulk. Its just some drawing made by a G fan. If you don't think its right then just say it. I don't think its a face but I mean jeeze ._.
Guys,
Gareth Edwards said that he wanted to make a new monster for this movie- something different. He said to make the Muto(s), he took bits from all his favorite things. Unless he's only referring to one of the monsters, this seems to pretty much confirm there won't be any Toho ones in the film. Even though I will say, it would have been cool. But being honest, I like what they're doing by making something we haven't seen before.
If u guys go back to the trailer and look at that scene, and look where the lamp and bridge r at u can see a object that moves in a wave like pattern. U guys should really go check it out.
Just like Dannyblazor, I'll probably see it once in IMAX 3D for my birthday (which is exactly nine days after the movie comes out. May 26). Then, if the movie is good (which I'm certain it will be), I'm gonna buy it when it comes out on DVD. I would love to see it more than once, but IMAX is expensive. I'll be lucky if I even get to see it in IMAX the first time.
I feel like this is definitely a repeat topic, but eh, whatever.
It really depends on how good it is. I obviously believe that it is going to be pretty damn good based what I've heard/seen so far, but there is no way to be certain until it actually comes out.
If it's bad, or just ok I'll probably only see it once.
If it's at all good, I'll definitely see it twice.
If it's just flat-out excellent, like not just good for a Godzilla movie, but also good when compared to other excellent films like Jurassic Park, In Bruges, Star Wars V or something like that, then I'll see it 3-5 times depending on my budget at the time of release.
There is only one movie ever I've seen more than 5 times in theaters. I actually saw it 8 times, but I just don't objectively see Godzilla touching that kind of level.
you have a point there @JUNKERDE
That's really good. I especially like the spider one.
To quote Sergeant James Heller from [PROTOTYPE 2], "Now that right there, that is the shit."
Does anyone other than me think that 100m is a bit too small? I saw the size comparison chart above and decided to compare his height to several different bridges and momuments. What I found out had me questioning his height. I understand the film will make him look huge with low camera angles etc, but what about the long shots of him possibly destroying things like the Golden Gate Bridge? The Golden Gate Bridge is 227 m from the top of the water so, in my opinon, won't this make Godzilla look kinda small?.... Just something that's bugging me, but it wont stop me watching the film. SO EXCITED! :D
Honestly, I was expecting this toy to be better. But at least that the Atomic Breath will be blue in the movie. I just hope the Atomic Breath doesn't come out like that, what with the head and all for the toy. Godzilla doesn't need to bend over to use his trademark weapon, nor does he need his head to open like that.
Sorry guys, but Godzilla's height was confirmed by Gareth Edwards himself to be 350ft in the Empire Magazine article. That, and Legendary themselves provided Empire with the size chart that proved his height is indeed 350ft. It's not a debate anymore. It's confirmed on all counts.
Every waking hour until I'm kicked out of the theater. ;)
I now have a reason to actually break my piggie bank.
ths sounds amazing!!!!!!!!!!! defineey pays a great amount of repsect to the original.
I don't think we can use past Godzilla movies as an indicator of this Godzilla's approach to fighting.
This movie is set in our world where everyone has seen Godzilla movies by Toho. But those movies were just movies, based upon Toho's interpretation of a disaster story told in 1954.
This Godzilla is supposed to be the "real" Godzilla that all of those movies are based upon. It's a big reason why it wouldn't make any sense to see any later Toho monsters as well.
I will watch it 4 times, the power of 4.
I will wait for X-Plus.
looks like the ignorance kicked in, did you remeber what they said their toy would be? "collector level detailing" for the atomic breath godzilla, they put this crap out, and this is they best they got? Even for a KIDS toy this looks so cheap and insanely crappy. They cheaped out, "collector level detailing" my ass. And because it's a POS, even for a kids toy, i have a right to bitch about it, this is more like it's made for a 5 year old and younger
Keep in mind this POS is the $35 "deluxe" figure they've been boasting about, and it looks like ass.
Actually everyone, the sad fact is that it's not a monster or even a plane.
Watch the first plane that goes down in the shot, and you'll see that the little bit of darkness is just part of the splash produced by that first plane hitting the water. Just watch the plane, and watch the water that goes into the air and track it.
It's just water guys. That's the sad reality of this image.
Guys come on its so fake! Embargo is still going on and it's using the old promo art. Clearly a bootleg. How could the legit stuff already be out on the market? The new pics from Empire shows a totally different look of Big G!
