I don't mean for this to come off as MY opinion, but rather as a summary of the objections I've read.
I think the main FEAR is that IF he has gills, then it's going to be used as a vulnerability or a kryptonite in combat. People already have these visions in their head of some military guy going "Aim for the GILLS" and then the army goes all GMK on Godzilla's ass. Or some enemy monster hooking Godzilla by the gills and throwing him around.
I really don't think the main issue has anything to do w/ Godzilla's ability to breath in different environments. The bigger issue, is that it potentially gives Godzilla a 'weak spot' that can be attacked.
Even if he has gills, I don't personally think they will make a plot point of it in the movie. Unfortunately there really is no way to alleviate that concern until the movie comes out.
In terms of my actual opinion, I personally don't think Godzilla has gills just because I really haven't seen anything that looks like gills in any of the pictures or shots of him. EVERYTHING that I've seen, that people haved called a 'gill' just looks like part of his scales or armor plates to me.
But it's not like I don't believe they are gills because I'm somehow opposed to Godzilla having them. If it turns out they are gills, I personally don't really give a damn. I don't see any problem with Godzilla having gills. It really doesn't change anything about the monster or the plot to me.....unless the movie chooses to make a big deal out of it.....which would be stupid...and that's what has people fretting...the concern about what the movie MIGHT do with it if he actually does have gills....
But I don't see Gareth Edwards being that dumb....if Godzilla has them they will probably just be mentioned once, off hand by a scientist or something to explain how Godzilla can stay under water for so long, and that will be the end of it, if there is anything at all.
I just don't think he has gills because it doesn't look like it to me. That's pretty much it.
Best fan theory I've heard in a while.
i agree with ZILLZILLAH hater
***SPOILERS*****minor spoilers, but still *****SPOILERS*****read further at your own risk******
Empire Magazine, as well as the journalists (such as IGN) who viewed the 20 minutes of footage that was screened earlier today have confirmed that the '15 years ago' event is in 1999. Furthermore, they confirm it was a nuclear power plant accident that happens in Japan. At the time, Cranston's character is working at the plant, and the accident has a very personal cost for him, which causes him to investigate what happened there.
If you read the IGN/Empire articles yourself, or read any equivalent sources who also saw the 20 minutes of footage, they go into some additional detail, but that's all I feel comfortable sharing myself.
All I see, besides the claw, is a bunch of smoke and dust. Thanks for the link though. :)
Watch the IGN video. Confirms that it was some kind of seismic activity that caused the power plant to malfunction.
Edwards confirmed in the trailer breakdown that he doesn't attack new york.
Oh ok Wasn't aware of that, but what If & is their any other cities he attacks across the globe ??
it kinda looked like Godzilla taking it down
no it is vegas its a copy of the statue of liberty
BAAAWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!!!!
OH, jeez Great satire yeah i am a little worreid about reactions but, i think its going to be okay...
as long as markiting picks up... also, this a kind of like a flash back. to 1985 advertising... to me at least.
Why Gman that wasnt a come back, madison asked me to pen up a dark and gritty snicker's commercial and I did just that, so I haaave no ideeea what you meen by a bad comeback when all I did was indulge madison's request.
Dark Gritty=Humor=No
I definitely wouldn't rule this out. In my opinion a lot of what you're saying fits into place with what we've seen and heard so far.
Also, though I noticed that some people don't care for the whole 'Mutos feeding on Godzilla's radiation' thing, it makes sense to me. If the Mutos are focused on Godzilla, that will definitely make the battles more intense, in my opinion.
I think the reason some people don't like that idea is because Godzilla is the King of the monsters, and therefore they don't think he should be a victim to any of them. However, kings are attacked for their authority and position. It would make sense for the Mutos to try and feed on Godzilla's radiation- he's the King. With Godzilla's radiation and him out of the way, the Mutos would be in a higher position above humanity along with being the most powerful species.
I'm mexican, even though I was born in america. And I live in okinawa japan.
WHAT DID YOU JU.....Hey thats not a bad idea :)
Gojira 2014:MOMMY!!!
Biolante: WHAT!?
Gojira 2014: some guy used his free will and knoladge of what counts as an easter egg even though it is clearly fighter fighters but he is too lazy to even zoom in on the photo!
Biolante: So? And besides I am not your mommy
Gojira 2014: Shut up mommy
Biolante: Its like talking to a wall....I AM NOT YOUR MOMMY
Gojira 2014: MOMMY!MOMMY!MOMMY!MOMMY!
Biolante: you sound like a pin head so hears a suggestion...damage control.
Gojira 2014: MOMMY I POOPIE MY PANTS!
Biolante: FUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!
^Apparently your great ideas equate bad come backs and no sense of humor at all... :/
Ya know what madison, your right I shoud try penning a daek and gritty snicker's commercial, so here's the first draft.
So the commercial starts with me Sending out a hit on a smartass, and Godzilla's just sitting at home on his Ipad and recives the hit as well as the reward, a snicker's bar, obviously Godzilla accepts the offer and Atomic breath's the smartasses house, Godzilla then bring's me back the smartasses scorched remains, I do a DNA test to make shure it's the right smartass, and the test comes back as a match, now with the contract complete, I unwrap a snickers bar and toss it into Godzilla's mou and he walk's off into the sunset and Godzilla's theme starts playing as the screen fade's to black.
Wow I even suprise myself with great ideas.
....and it doesnt work, sorry for wasting your time guys :1
I made a gif
Dude, I love your optimism and enthusiasm. Also, the Enter Key is your friend. Hit it from time to time when you write something that large. ;)
@Gojira 2014
Ohhh did i hurt someones little feels? Go tell mommy that some big bad guy used his free will and knowledge of what counts easter eggs/references are to disagree with you/the op. Then cry me a river and go away.
GOOSEBUMPS.
This sounds like a flippin' scary and emotional Godzilla film. :O Thank you for sharing this with us!
My favorites are the original Godzilla (1954), the 1975 G, the 1985 G, the 1995 G, the 2000 G, and the 2004 G
Damnit! 1985 is my favorite Godzilla suit by far. I'm really bummed out to hear this.
I'm not sure if this rule is still in play, but as of a few years ago the Oscars weren't allowed to include movie advertisments as it might show favor of one studio over another.
Assuming that rule is still enforced I think this ad is a great way to get around it. It doesn't ensure more butts in seats and it's mostly just selling Snickers, but it might be strong enough to turn some heads.
As for the "camp" factor and how some people may percieve it, I believe we're overthinking it. This will gain exposure at most. Not guarantee ticket sales or turn people away.
Well, I'm assuming he's a prehistoric creature that lived a long time ago, had numerous features still present in his latest form, was mutated a long time ago in a fashion more like how Frankenstein's monster was given life, further radiation is added into his already nuclear-evolved body that interacts positively with his biology, and that all of that accumulates into the entity known as Godzilla.
That's good, I like it.
Myself and Chris discussed this possibility a while back for our AVP site (see Svanya's link above). Although we have yet to develop the idea fully we "designed" a take on the Rock, Paper, Scissors game where members could battle against each other and, depending upon their stats for their chosen character and any items they had purchased from points awarded from posting in the forums, each randomly chosen attack would be played randomly - though a little complex the idea still remains a possibility.
This could work well within Godzilla, with members choosing their favorite monster and purchasing buffs and abilities to better survive and win fights.
Another possibility with less chance of "immature behavior" is an adventure story game (similar to Dungeons & Dragons adventure books of yesteryear) where we write a story with each chapter ending with a choice of 2-3 actions. Each member could choose their own action and the following week read the continuation of that story, based upon their selected action.
A final possibility is mixing the two, with an adventure story with occasional boss characters every month or so, that have to be defeated in battle (using the original idea) before continuing with the story.
Give me or Chris your feedback and we'll see what we can come up with for you guys!
Would've been great if during the "except when he's hungry" bit they showed the new godzilla wrecking sh*t! Then revert back to the cute frat boyzilla lol.
@ DAIKAIJU ONI
yeah, that's a perfectly valid concern. I'm a little nervous about that as well.
I did enjoy the commercial, but I mentioned in another thread how I really would have preferred if they cut in a different or additional of the movie at the end of the commercial.
They shouldn't have just showed the red 'Godzilla' movie title. Even if they just added the little bit of Godzilla roaring while the doors are being closed would have been great.
Yeah I took the figure, even though I already pre-ordered the 12 inch. No reason was given for the cancellation, and I dont know if we ever will know. I asume other members are getting the email to and can conferm this, otherwise I can post a photo or something.
I would take the Godzilla 2014 6 inch figure if I were you. Still sad though, I wonder why?
Great commercial, just wondering if people that are not following the movie's decelopment are going to think that the new movie is still a Toho produced film with the analog effects...
You're wrong MECHA G, it always sucks to be me! Ha, but there have been a variety of early showings, including how some lucky people got to see 5 whole scenes recently.
biggest yet, I'm excited!
A lot of people will see this being that it is during the Oscars
Awesome! Chris, get on this!
Valkorin ahaha
maybe they are trying to lead him away from the city to hawaii i only say this because hawaii is supposed to be the final act of the film it says so on the new empire magazine showing a picture of aaron taylor johnson and that picture does say something about johnson and it says the final act under it.
