1954 attack included?

That would be cool, but already done in one of the G vs MechaG movies. Still, I wouldn't throw that idea out of bed!

Maybe, but i think they might be going with the idea that G was created by the bomb the Americans dropped on the Japanese ending WWII, which I'm am pretty sure is a different origin.

The original movie did say the US A-bomb did make him, it just was never explicit. Then there is the Odo Island legend of Gojira that also give this mysterious quality to him. Is he the dreaded monster god these islanders fear? Not until Dr. Kyohei Yamane does the scientific side of things explain all.

I wouldn't mind seeing an updated version of the 1954 attack open the movie. Though using bits from the original film works too, as in they can be turned into archival footage, which some of the shots of Godzilla in the first movie do look like old newsreel footage. For example the original trailer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSk-i1UFJWA

If they re-do the train at the beginning id be so amzed that was one of the or propbably the best part of the movie

i think it'd be great

This movie is going to have nothing to do with any of the previous films. Plus, it would be 60 years later, in San Francisco.

I'd prefer if they made this so it was the first time and we knew nothing about him or what he is.

Yeah I agree with durp004. I dont want to have a continuation of the previous or first film I want us have no idea about godzilla. In fact I dont want to even know what he is, I want his origin to be mysterious. Plus its not going to have anything to do with the first films because it has already been confirmed that this new movie is indeed a reboot of the franchise. And the whole godzilla's origin thing was what I didn't like about godzilla 1998. In the beginning of the film they show footage of iguanas and atomic testings but you cant out right tell us that hes a fucking iguana, I mean just say that to yourself "Godzilla the mutant iguana".
