It's not impossible just unnecessary. This goes back to my argument of, "he's popular because you can't not like him." He's been done so many different ways that if you hate 1 version wait 3 movies and you'll get a different 1. Oh not a fan of him being an alien monster that wanders around space destroying planets? Well how about a controlled monster. Not a fan of that either, well no problem how about futuristic genetically engineered pets that are taken back in time and to absorb the radiation Godzilla was exposed to. If that's not to your liking then he'll be an ancient Alien sealed away in the mothra series and a guardian of Japan in the next few years. Then finally be a new monster who has a great design(in my opinion of course) just to change into possibly the worst looking version of Ghidorah yet(once again my opinion) just to bring the character back for "the last installment".
It's not Ghidorah can't go any further as much as he's at a good point give some1 else a chance. The godzilla series is well known for having an extremely diverse and interesting stock of monsters, but throwing and odd 20 monsters out to bring back Ghidorah for the 8th time in a recycled, or unneedingly new way is foolish. Once again most iconic characters have at least sentient intelligence and a personality so retelling the story is fine as you can maybe concentrate more on specific aspects of each character when retelling, but that isn't as possibly with monsters who are animalistic in almost every depliction of them.
@Kaijujira
Godzilla beat Dawn of the Planet of the Apes in the first round actually. Had it beaten VA, it would have gone up against something called Tracers, another movie i have never heard of (making it a heavyweight in this tournamentt).
@BCROCKETT94 I'm sorry, but there are a few things I have to respectfully disagree here:
1. TriStar's movie is so not a Godzilla film because it had nothing to do with neither the Godzilla character nor the source material, other than rip-off Jurassic Park and other flight scenes from other movies, so because of this it doesn't count as a Godzilla movie. I know it's your opinion, but I just think the movie should be looked at as just a generic monster movie than a Godzilla movie. Again, it rips off Jurassic Park more than having the real Godzilla in the movie.
2. That piece of crap that appeared in the movie is not Godzilla, it's called Zilla, and the reason for it is because Toho renamed the creature after TriStar lost the rights in 2002. Here's two 100% reliable, non-biased and non-fan-made links:
Zilla
Zilla Name Change
3. Not all the Godzilla movies had terrible acting, if you're referring outside the Showa films. Have you seen The Return of Godzilla? The acting in that movie is actually pretty good.
4. The '98 movie has no plot at all, at least none that can keep focus on. Even if the original films' effects were limited (which you had to give them a break since it's all they had to work with at the time), but they all had an actual plot (except Godzilla's Revenge, we can all agree that movie sucks), and some of them had actual messages you may have missed - "Why is Godzilla far deeper than you think". Zilla barely got any screen time because tha kaiju got shoved aside by a shitty romance, and annoying stereotypes. If a movie all it has are smoke and mirrors - TriStar's Zilla movie in this case - then the movie has nothing more to give, and plot, characters and GODZILLA are not part of that offer.
5. Zilla's design is great as a kaiju design. But as a GODZILLA design - IT SUCKS!!! IT LOOKS NOTHING LIKE THE ORIGINAL!!! TriStar should've done what Legendary is doing - modernize Godzilla's image, while keeping a classic impression.
These are just the things I have to disagree with you here, with all due respect.
Done Before but would like to see a modern look of it.
but New monsters are more preferable for me.
yeah, I will agree I'd like to see Gigan reprised. He was my favorite Kaiju enemy Godzilla ever faced. Destroyah would be cool for a "final boss" fight, perhaps for the third and/or final film. But the second should definitely feature some more Monsters and nod to the classics.
That is pretty funny! Though, I'd add "this is a joke" to the OP, so people don't get confused... some people out there might actually believe that link, haha.
Baah! That's funny, I wish it was April Fools Day to make this whole thing all the more hilarious. The one Godzilla 2014 troll news I actually get a kick out of.
GIGAN!!! And Destroyah. One of these two and I'm happy
Welcome Chris :)
Great stuff! Love the tribute with the roar at the end, thanks for sharing!
This is a bigger load of bullshit than the 1998 Godzilla
The only thing I did not like about Pacific Rim, was the noise level, 60-70% of the time. could not hear what the actors were saying, many ways, atleast for Me, this is why Transformers not one of My top Movie francise, there has to be a cooling down factor just before an intense moment, dont feel the audience needs to be bludgeoned over the head for 2 hours with ear-splitting noise and special effects.
This gave me an incredible laugh omfggggg Hahahah thank you for this!!!! Next time just put "Hilarious Godzilla plot" instead of BREAKING NEWISJSBDJBSBDHSHABSNWKQJSBXX. But still hilarious article!
@Kyero
Well done. For all the fans complaining, it's rather obvious Gareth Edwards gave all of you a heads up.
This is obviously someone's attempt at humor. Not a very good attempt to say the least.
fake bryan cranston doesen't make godzilla and his role is"dr.joe brody". godzilla was just awoken by radiation testing
It's not an inaccurate portayal because of where it was held.
It's an inaccurate portrayal because you could literally sit on the site spam voting your movie for hours if you wanted as the poll had no ip tracking when it came to voting. The second time I checked the pole I noticed a chat feature and after reading it for 5 minutes just to see the general populace I noticed about 7 people advertising vamp Academy for the whole 5 minutes I was there. That's at least 5 solid minutes they were on that site advertising the movie and continuously voting it up
Ik cap aint got shit on the King, but this is just a cool edited picture, really kool
thanks for the tweet Gman, I needed a laugh
I'm bummed but I'm proud of what we did too. Godzilla started out at 21%... Considering the forum this survey took place on we made a dang good effort. The fact that the tween vamp lovers had to go so far to win means that we got Godzilla's name out there more even if it was subconsciously. Good job everyone!
godzilla is #1 already. he does not need to win.
I found this re-edit one with the roar at the end! Enjoy! ( I also updated the main topic video to this)
Godzilla (1954 - 2014) The world ends, Godzilla begins... (re-edit version)
You're a musician? fuck yeah dude! *high five*
but yeah I see your point, but it is a well made tribute.
One of my favorites I've seen
I'm also in my teens and prefer daikaiju to many of the creatures featured in today's media, though I totally respect everyone's cinematic preferences, whether it be vampire movies or giant monster films. I'll just personally go for Godzilla every time!
Working at a theater, I can absolutely confirm the Fatigue is true. I would promote Pacific Rim at the box office and people would say "No thanks, we already saw transformers". It's not just with the dark and gritty films, movies always tend to negate eachother- you either see one or the other. One of the best examples would be "Whitehouse Down" and "Olympus has fallen" you either saw one or the other, really. Because you don't want to go over the same plot and action all over again.
I am well in my teens, and I absolutely despise/hate the whole "OMG!111 IMMA WEREWOLFVAMPIRE THINGY AND iM SO SMEXY OMG!11 IM A MONSTER!11 OOOOO!!1 HIGH SCHOOL SUCKS LOL11!".
Hail to the King baby. Godzilla all the way!
that jaeger idea, would be amazing!!!!
I didn't flip out. I remember in the chat below we were talking about lemons. Then there were some VA fans here and there, but overall we did a pretty damn good effort for a battle between the King of the Monsters and teen vampires.
CANDENTE got to it before I did, I'd have loved to hear the 2014 trailer roar at the end to finish it all off with a bang.
Overall though, I like it to a degree. My main complaint was the fast cuts. Some of them were poorly timed to my eyes and ears as a musician while comparing the film to the music going in the background. Others were just harsh and frantic, and it took away some of the enjoyment I got out of watching it. If some of the cuts had been removed and others allowed to play out just even one full second longer, I think I would have no complaints at all.
Good stuff though.
@KING_OF_ZOMBIES>
best grafitti ever
GODZILLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Agreed with chris.
Sure it wouldnt even affect the success of the new G film anyway.
and besides The Godzilla trailer on You Tube Has just reached 13 million views and it got its 10 million in just 2 days, for VA the second trailer hasnt even surpassed 1,500,000 views yet.
and If Godzilla would have won it would have gone up againts Dawn of the planet of the apes, a higly anticipated sequel with an upcoming third film that already has a release date announced.
But VA its gonna go up againts the Robocop reboot, film thats already getting alot of bias assumptions and premature hatred.
How cheap is that?

Here are mine, hope I'm not too late. http://htfshimmer.deviantart.com/
just look up godzilla neo
i wish godzilla could win but vampires and girls are like fruit and that from 30 years ago with the hammer
Here we go again.
GODZILLA 4 THE WIN!
Vampires sucks, MTV isn´t a place for Godzilla, Godzilla isn´t a shit product for brainless girls, Godzilla is more.
Im happy that Godzilla lose, all the good movies in that movie brawl are losing.
So, I suggest that we must party.
