KyeroNovember 24, 2013@ AKIO123 - The Amazon image leak was not a photoshop. Where you got that idea or heard that rumor is beyond me, but it was not a photoshopped image. It was an entirely different image all its own.
How do I know? I have the Brazilian head shot sitting right next to me and I have compared it extensively to the Amazon leak and there are some key differences to note between them. None of which involve photoshop skills.
First, there is a small ridge of spikes running along his neck in the Brazilian shot that lines up with his cheek, but in the Amazon leak it's lined up instead with his lower jaw. There are more spines in the Brazilian shot, and fewer in the Amazon leak and they are not the same shape between the two shots. Godzilla's "gills" in the Brazilian shot are smaller and flare out a bit more than the Amazon leak which appear to be flatter and a bit wider and extend farther beneath the throat than the Brazilian shot.
The lighting is different between the two shots and you can see more of a Heisei inspired segmented section in the scales of his throat in the Amazon leak which is not present at all in the Brazilian shot. The angle of the throat in the Brazilian shot is going straight down, but in the Amazon leak it's going down and forward to match the leaning pose Godzilla has taken. And finally, the coloration of the two are both different between shots. In the Amazon leak, Godzilla's head is more of a grayish tone while in the Brazilian shot it's more of a deep indigo blue coloration,
Keep in mind that these are artist renderings, not finalized and fully realized CGI shots of what he'll look like on screen.
Again, I don't know where you heard that it's a photoshop, but it's not. Rumors are not facts my friend, so don't take them as fact if you haven't confirmed it for yourself beyond the shadow of a doubt. Taking someone else at their word, especially a disgruntled Godzilla fan, is always a mistake.
@ XXSABERBLACKCROW/TRUE AMERICAN GODZILLA -
We don\'t know what cities he will attack, period. Filming took place in Hawaii, but from the reports and articles it appears that Hawaii was a substitute for Japan. We know that part of the film will be set in 1954, and that may very well be where we see the Hawaii set footage.
But outside of San Francisco (which is also nothing but a glorified rumor that is being taken as fact right now), we have absolutely zero confirmation on any other cities that will be in the movie.
