(SPOILER?) Upsetting scene that Gareth had mentioned?

Whats with the coffee and the food???? and also I didn,t no that an Anti hero can kill off one of the main charaters intill now. And you don,t have too get so Angry when you think that a G fan would just writie out the anwser on google

I was speaking for everyone, not just myself. I wasn't telling you to stop, just think on how far you wanna take spoiler filled discussions. For example, don't go and buy the Godzilla novel when it comes out before the movie and just post about all the spoilers. It's messed up. I'm aware it isn't your problem, but the least you can do is respect and understand why I say what I say in regards to people like me who hate spoilers. You won't see me trolling on any other spoiler posts like an annoying hypocrite, I'm just commenting on this one so I can let you know how I feel towards the idea of spoiler posts on this site. But I won't bother you on any other spoiler posts, so don't worry. 

I don't necessarily agree that Godzilla needs to kill a main character in order for the audience to against him, but I'm not entirely convinced that's the point anyway. I've never once rooted for Godzilla in Godzilla vs. Mothra, or Godzilla '84, or GMK and I'm pretty sure most of the sensible fans of the series don't either.

That said, I don't think Godzilla has ever been put in a position (other than those movies) to be outright rooted against. The filmmakers themselves seem to want Godzilla to be a posterboy for audiences to root for in stuff like Godzilla Raids Again, Godzilla vs. Biollante...etc... Nothing wrong with that, it's just how the character has thrived.

In any case Ishiro Honda always wanted the audience to feel empathy for him and, thus, never made him a grotesque murderer which would be reflected in character deaths.

Does this mean I'm against Godzilla killing a main character in this movie? No, but I'm also not convinced it will change how audiences percieve Godzilla if there's already a set vision in motion.

I agree with Gigan

And Godzilla doesn,t need too kill off a Main Character Like he,s just going too kill the monsters and destroy San fransico so thats all. Every Main Character in every movie survived well expect for that Military guy that shot a rocket in too Godzilla mouth in Godzilla vs Biollante So no Main character shouldent be dead in the movie. some people want the Characters too stay alive in the movie and at the end they survived!

xxsaber, if you feel the same way as Giga, it's not my fault you clicked the link.

InstinctiveGigan, I didn't mean for it to sound like it was only for you. It was a reply to you, but it was addressed to everyone who didn't want to see spoilers but clicked the link anyways.

I DID NOT SAY THAT GODZILLA KILLS ANY OF THE MAIN CHARACTERS! I SAID THAT A MAIN CHARACTER WILL DIE! AND THEN I EXPLAINED MY REASONING BEHIND BELIEVING THAT! I EVEN SAID THAT I DON'T KNOW THE CAUSE OF DEATH!

Most of it's just preference, but seeing as in Godzilla vs Mothra Godzilla was the 1 who ended up killing the bad guys it's safe to say the director didn't want him viewed as a complete antagonist. In 1984 I felt it was humans who were just as big a threat as Godzilla since the middle of the movie Godzilla's attack was eclipsed by the Russian nuke coming down. GMK I can't really say as I hate that movie but I still rooted for Godzilla simply because the guardian spirits weren't very good protagonists in my opinion. To sum it up there are still plenty of indications in all those movies except possibly GMK as to why fans were meant to go off what they preferred as there were things Godzilla did, or were happening around him so to say most sensible fans is something I don't completely agree with.

As I said Godzilla doesnt have to be malicious but a giant monster rampaging around a city with characters that would be in close proximity to it there would be inevitable deaths, and these would turn the audience more towards the human side. Sure you can see Godzilla as the lesser of 2 evils, but like I said humanity needs to be the ones rooted for especially when ther are other monsters. So naturally when there are 2 monsters, both being destructive the audience naturally roots for Godzilla ignoring the 3rd part the humans. 

Also, again, Instinctive Gigan, I won't, I promise that I won't buy the book and then come on here to spoil the movie for everyone that hates reading. I won't.

I guess I've gotten this off topic since I was 1 of the ones that brought up Godzilla being the killer, rather than addressing if I felt the character would die, which I guess was implyed a yes, but pulled the thread off topic nonetheless

The novel will come out before the movie so there,s no need for people spoiling the movie when the G fans see the movie. the novel will release on 20th and the movie will be release on may 16th so there,s no need for spoiling the movie. and BROCKETT you dont have too get worried if you tell everyone about the movie on the novel. that tells me that you wont spoiler the movie leaving Gigan calmed

huh?

And by the way why do you write your comments in dark black i cant even see a comment you should stick with the white ones

I don't know why it's doing that. I haven't changed any settings, and it doesn't look like I can change it back either. But it shows my comments a light grey, and my initial discussion post as black on my screen.

Godzilla will be a force of nature, not an anti-hero; Gareth Edwards has made this clear a number of times (his misuse of the term anti-hero notwithstanding), which is exactly the way it should be for the movie to be serious...

Also, the comparisons being made to the Showa/Heizei/Millenium movies in relation to hero/anti-hero are irrelevant; this movie is a reboot of the franchise, not a continuation!
