Paul Fruge' of FUNimation said during an interview with Chris Mirjahangir of Toho Kingdom, on 10-03-2016, "So we will have some special features that the Japanese have on theirs and some we won't. It really depends on what we're able to get our hands on, what they're willing to share, and or what we're willing to add ourselves for the US release."
So, based on this, I'm hopeful that we'll see some special features on the US presentation of this very special film, God willing.
I paid $53.00 for the 3-disc set through Amazon Japan. And it's worth it. A TON of extras: a lot of trailers and TV spots; cast appearances at screenings; the red carpet premiere; outtakes; NG (no good) takes (flubbed lines, noises that weren't scripted); B-roll shots; several views of the same scene; simulated newscasts of the events as they unfold (presumably using actual, well-know Japanese newscasters); extensive VFX/SFX making-of shots; and much, much more. If we can get just some of this on the FUNimation Blu-ray/DVD, it will be a great set to have. The shipping was fast too. It shipped on the 22nd of March and arrived on the 23rd. Not bad. I pre-ordered in December.
A wish list for the FUNimation release would include: some of the trailers/TV spots; some of the cast and staff appearances at screenings; the whole VFX/SFX feature, some of the simulated newscasts; some of the outtakes, B-Roll stuff and the red carpet premiere. One of the best features was the (apparent) surprise appearance of [SPECIAL FEATURE SPOILER COMING UP] Hideaki Anno at a screening as well as some of the cast at another one. Their interaction with the audience was fun to watch. There's also a speech by Anno with the production staff at the beginning of the filming. This is a lot. But, if carefully edited, portions of it would really put the FUNimation disc(s) way on the other side of special.
That's so awesome! Screw concept art, that's museum-quality!
Upvoted!
Hideous design
very interesting read!!! i love Stan Winston
As a whole I like better than the 2014 design, though I still hate the type of underbelly/chest design for both it and the 2014 version. I far prefer the more anthropomorphic, muscular build to the chest--Or even the ripped skin on the 2016 Godzilla.
Overall this looks very much like Godzilla and I think it would've worked well on screen.
ehhh not crazy about this one.
I always liked this design. I had seen it years ago, shortly after they shelved this and went with Emmerich. It's always good to view a design from different angles, and in fact there are other pictures of this concept and it's a pretty cool design. Like most I've seen, I personally might change/tweak a couple of things (a tad too reptilian), but this is light years ahead of GINO and I do like it better than the '14 Legendary look.
KingKaijuGojira- I agree.
Good God no. Godzilla looks like one of those duck-billed dinosaurs. Just no.
I really like this design. In fact I almost like it more than the current legendary one.
Exceptionally interested in how they propel this story thru an anime movie! Hopefully the run time is a solid 2 Hours ^_^
So happy knowing Ken Watanabe will be returning!
There goes my speculation with the cast before this. Oh well, I can adapt
So they are essentially getting together the NWA for a rap battle with Godzilla. I'm freakin rolling lol
In other threads, I posted tha-- Hold on.....
AHA! Here it is!
This is the post that I was talking about from Mike Dougherty!
I have never heard of this guy.
YESSSSSSSSS.
Also, interesting that there are a bunch of humanoid aliens along with the humans.
@ I picked up on that too. It may go places!
I don't notice that it was announced until last night Gman.
Ghidorah is meh, kinda thin, and Rodan is...God...I cannot put into words how ugly it is
Interested in seeing what they do with this
Wow... Just, wow...
Ya that Ghidorah is something I would like to see. All the designs are quite nice.
Really great work from this user. The only one that doesn't really grab me personally is Rodan facially speaking, but the quality on each piece remains truly solid and imaginative. Hope Legendary has done some research of their own in all this to give them an idea what the consensus of fans would really like to see in updated designs.
These look great!
Wow after a decade of sleeping Godzilla's coming back hard.
¡GOOD!, really good,
I have been inspired by myself to make a Fan Art¡YEAH!, They look good :)
I like this art.
That Ghidorah design is way better! He was way too scrawny in the previous one, he looks better bulked up! I really dig the Wyvern look, just like this one!
Ultrazero,
It's been going on this entire weekend. It's where all these announcements are being made.
Godzilla 2014 Himself- When is Anime Japan?
WOOOOWOOOOO!!!! What a time to be a Godzilla/Kaiju fan!
@KingKaijuGojira Same, I was hoping they'd unveil Godzilla at Anime Japan. Hopefully we get to see him soon.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsBByTiKfyY this is basically me right now after hearing about this.
What I really want to know is when will we see Godzilla and when will we get a trailer?
It's such a good time to be a G-Fan, and a fan of the genre in general. This is pretty much THREE concurrently running movie series at one time between Legendary, whatever Toho decides to do as a follow up to Shin Goji and now an anime movie series. It's hard to ask for much better than that.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!!
Hell YES! There's so much Godzilla coming I'm not sure if I can handle it.
