they do because you cna see them loading the nuke on to a boat in the trailer
Could you make a new Mecha Godzilla design? My ideas are on my new disscusion on your idea of a future monster.
we shoud not care what colour it is but we shoud be happy that it is going to be in the movie
Omar, only when you can back up your statements with articulable facts will I hold anything you say in positive esteem.
This is all just speculation, nothing has been spoiled at all just because of people guessing about what we've seen. In all likelyhood, the clip at the end of the trailer is just from the middle of the movie, not the end. Besides, even if it is from the end of the movie, it's not like it really spoils anything, except that the military will hit Godzilla with some massive assault that will have no effect, which is pretty obviously going to happen anyway, and we know almost nothing about anything else that will happen in the film, what the other monsters will look like, or even what the atomic breath will be like. So don't worry about the movie being spoiled, basically.
no @varan it cant be, its in san fran, the last city he attacks, he arrives at night has a fight in the airport, early in the morning he destroys most of the city, later in the morning he fights a monster and the military, the military's efforts are deemd usless. then victory roar. the end. good set up to sequel. thats it
BESIDES... this discussion was supposed to be about your ideas and hopes for this movie.....not crushing mine....
The scene of him rising out of the rubble is probably somewhere in the middle/late middle. My prediction is around 1:00 to 1:30 into the film.
BTW, I use the same name here as I did in the news group Alt.Movies.Monster. There's a treasure trove of my posts (as well as those by a host of other G-fans) there detailing my dislike/disgust for the G-98 film, and the film's writers/producers. There were a lot of great posters back "in the day" there - especially a guy named "Steve Zivanic" who nicknamed G-98 as "Bombzilla" in reference to its box office performance. LOL.
u could of put it nicley...now my dream will never come...*sigh*
I would also like to state that we don't have any idea what is going on with the other monsters. We kind of know what the smaller spider guys look like, and we kind of know what the bigger centipede-ish guy looks like. But remember, we already saw the centipede guy dead, which means that there is very likely something much bigger and more dangerous that Godzilla still has to cope with, and we haven't the faintest idea what that creature will be. Mark my words, if it ends up being Mothra, people will be maimed (by me).
Um.. seriously? In a dark, gritty, serious movie? Hell, the rock music in Final Wars was unwelcome, and that was perhaps the campiest Godzilla film since the 1970s, so just imagine how out of place it would be in the original 1954 film and you'll have an idea of why it never will and never should be in the upcoming movie, which is supposed to have the same tone as the original.
What is funny is some of the critics of the 2014 trailer complain that too much of Godzilla was shown. As Kidwunder stated earlier, after the reputation butchery that was the 98 film, we needed to see more of him as a reassurance that it wouldn't be a repeat offense. We also don't see a whole lot of him. We see a few second birds eye view of him lumbering through a dimly lit area, then we see him rise out of rubble mostly obscured by dust and aforementioned rubble. You don't even see his whole body. The 98 trailer basically gives us a bunch of scenes of different parts of his body that we can puzzle-piece into almost the whole creature, so that argument is invalid. The other contention, that too much time was wasted on the halo jump scene, also struggles. In the 98 trailer alot of time is spent just looking at people on the street while cars shake, then we see a bunch of flash scenes that basically Cliffnote the entire film. The 2014 allows us to get emotionally invested by giving us more than a strobe of shoddy CGI. In short, the 98 trailer allows us to predict most of the movie, the 2014 trailer leaves us wondering what is happened in the other 2 hours or so they haven't shown us.
Serizawa is already confirmed to be in the film, and things like "ACCESS BLOCKED" and "THIS INFORMATION HAS BEEN BLOCKED BY MARTIAL LAW AND CANNOT BE VIEWED" are just random responses it automatically gives when you type in something it doesn't recognize. The reason "Bagan" doesn't give the same response as the names of other monsters is that his name is simply not in the websites word bank at all due to the fact that he was never in a Godzilla movie, which is basically confirmation that he will never be in this film or any sequels to it.
D&E's G98 was just awful. I saw it in a $1 bargain matinee and could barely sit thru it. The new film can only be better - simply because we were at rock-bottom already "thanks" to Devlin and Emmerich.
oh ok...thats cool...the less u know right?
@Camdigidy "Emmerich wasn't trying to make a dark and serious movie, he was making a fun monster movie."
No, Cam, Emmerich wasn't trying at all, he hates Godzilla and he only did it for the money, he didn't care that he was disrespecting Godzilla.
Both were good but the '98 one shows his feet a lot and they make him look like a Jurassic Park dino. The '14 one...wow. The jump, the breathing, the commander speaking to them, the skyline and dark skies... this one is dead serious and when you see Godzilla you just get goosebumps, I didn't have that with the '98 one, sure I was excited about it, I was 15 at the time but this one... Hands down the '14 trailer. I saw the '98 in the cinema and I'm definitely going to see this one too. Multiple times.
Foremost, S.O.S and the Millenium series Godzilla vs Mechagodzilla were made before Final Wars. The release years were 2003, 2002, and 2004 respective to the previous sentence. Second, even though the intro to Final Wars had a lot of old clips, I don't believe they were all in the same continuity as FW, it was more of an homage to the series as a whole. As for the May release dates, Ishiro Honda's birthday is May 7th, so the releases are likely in honor of him.
The 2014 trailer is obviously the superior trailer, because it's being honest on what we're getting here - the real Godzilla. Plus, it has a chilling dark tone and suspense, just like "Gojira" (1954), generates actual fear, and when you see Godzilla, you feel the chills going down your spine and fear his precense.
The GINO trailer (GINO, referring to the movie title) was horrendous, it was a rip-off, the movie knew it was being dishonest with the audience, giving us a gigantic disappointment rather than satisfaction. TriStar lied to everybody, making us think we were getting what we wanted when they knew they were lying, and they knew they were gonna give us was a big pile of kaiju bullsh%t. It disrespected the Godzilla character in general, Toho, the fans, as well as the audience, and the source material that horrible piece of monkey scrotum of a film was based on. We didn't get Godzilla, we just got Zilla. And you know what's the worst part of all is? The Devil's pubic hair himself, Roland Emmerich, admitted he hates Godzilla, he didn't care for the source material, that's why he staryed away from the old films, that's why the movie sucked, by LACK OF INTEREST.
Obviously, Godzilla 2014 is far superior to GINO, Legendary is gonna kick TriStar's fake ass and put it to its place, and hopefully will make people FINALLY forget about that HORRIBLE film.
its ok @OMAR
im almost tempted not to see it now because i feel as if it has no point in plot now....
*sigh*
same with u huh omar?
OH YAH @THEVAMPMANSON IS TOTALLY RIGHT BRO!!!! OH YAH....EPIC....MY DREAMS COULD STILL COME TRUE!!!! THANXS THE VAMP BRO
I SAW IT!!!! IT WAS FLIPPEN AWESOME AND MADE ME CRAP BRICKS!!!!!!
These are two completely different films (and trailers) and can't really be compared because they have different goals. Emmerich wasn't trying to make a dark and serious movie, he was making a fun monster movie.
The 98 trailer hands down hit the nail on the hand as for generating hype for the movie. Its fast, loud and has a catchy tune and lots of random destruction without showcasing "Godzilla". The 2014 however matches what the 1954 film was trying to do by showcasing what happens when our inability to coexists goes too far. If the 1954 film was to come out now it would look like the 2014 one.
Um well in my opinion 2014 did a hugely better job on the trailer...because 98' shows almost all the really fakey ( rated b {low budjet}) scenes in the trailer and didnt give that 'wanna crap your pants and give up hope' feeling like 2014 did very much well...
sorry @Godzillafreak, thats how i felt when i figured it out.... *dang* :(
The 1998 Film Director failed to let us know that he only licensed the name Godzilla
The creature was horible and so was the film
@Taylour_Monster ...What about Sum 41 in Final Wars when Godzilla fought Tuna Breath? Correction, owned.
I thought the trailer for the 2014 was far superior after being quite dissapointed with the 98 film, but i still enjoy both the film and the trailer for setting up a fun blockbuster, For the 2014 trailer i thought the Halo jump was quite intense and as people have said sets the tone perfectly, this creature is a force to be reckoned with. People complain that the trailer showed too much of Godzilla i don't see a problem with that personally as most of us know what the creature looks like and it won't be much of a suprise. What i got from the trailer is it's letting us know that this film will have meatier character development and that the Godzilla creature is not the only thing to get excited about, and thats what excites me about the upcoming film, a little more depth.
i literaly just found out about this new godzilla movie 2 days ago and i already feel like ive seen it multiple times.....*sigh*
yeah i guess so, but talk about the ultimate spoiler, this movie has been spoiled almost 2 years ago
well thats sounds great and all but i didnt see the comic-con teaser so now a bunch is spoiled for me but whatever, eeither way it sounds cool
I agree with MrHappy. It would put for an awesome sewuel, bbut the suspence would be too much for my heart! :D
i dont think you can compare these two trailers and not be a fan of gozilla, the first trailer as a fan does no justice to the monster himself and that is not a bias opinion based on my seeing the movie, true fans now that hes not just tearing through a building a true fan knows hes not taking time out to mess with fishing boats, and a true fan knows hes not a giant trex, the new trailer on the other hand .. OMG i loved it and the destruction is just like i always imagined it should be like. the smoke and the debirs and such but then showing godzilla as well hmmmm cant really put that part in words i have been waiting for a vision of this type for a looooooong time.
oh....ok...i understand...
That would set up a sequel nicely. It would be awesome (the sequel, not so much the cliff hanger).
