Everyone and Magazine is entitled to an opinion. But, if you look at a number of other sites, they have Godzilla pretty high up on their list for most-anticipated films of 2014.

LOL @ Hunger Games 3 being on the list.  100% sure i could make a movie in my basement that would be better and more anticipated than that.

You're entitled to your opinion about The Hunger Games movies, but more anticipated? The second movie made $832.7 million worldwide and was the highest grossing domestic movie of 2013-- beating out Iron Man 3 domestically, which was the #1 highest grossing film worldwide. I'm pretty sure you won't get much more anticipated than that, regardless of how you feel about the movies.

Lets not joke ourselves. Many, many, many more people are anticipating the third Hunger Games than are anticipating Godzilla.

@Daco187Um

Entertainment Weekly is just one entertainment magazine. Empire is a more reliable one and it's mentioned Godzilla in more than one issue. I'd stick to that if you want something more substantial.

That said, and off topic, Gravity is, at the very least, one of the best movies of 2013. Easily...

One of the best, I agree. But I still think Pacific Rim brought it home for best movie of 2013. Visuals, enjoyment and uniqueness factors were all there. I'm expecting Godzilla to have that kind of impact on people this year as well, but hopefully it'll gross more here in North America, since it's an established franchise.

@GMAN2887 ... so your saying just because it made alot of money its a good movie?  Thats some backwards logic if you ask me. 

Here are some examples of other movies that were terrible but made a ton of money.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
Box Office: $607.7 Million

The Da Vinci Code
Box Office: $758.2 Million

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End
Box Office: $961 Million

 

... And most people are mindless drones these days so of corse a Third Hunger Games will be more anticapated then the first Godzilla. Sequals always do better but doesnt mean it will be any good.

You have to factor in that not everyone's a fan of G. I'm a child of the 70's, and here in the SF Bay Area the films were a staple of Creature Features and the Chiller Diller Saturday matinees (along with the orginal Ultraman) and this is why I'm looking forward to this film; nostalgia. But to the modern, younger set, I can see why there isn't a huge buzz for it. I for one am grateful that it was made!

I agree with DC67.  The younger set and even the majority of the older crowd (50+) have no interest in Godzilla.  One great move they made and i think will be a MAJOR roll in helping this be a success is Bryan Cranston.  All of the Breaking Bad fans will surely want to know what he is up to after the show ended and with this being his first role it will attract alot of people that normally wouldn't see it.

I never, ever, ever said that Hunger Games: Catching Fire was a good movie because it made a lot of money, nor would I ever make such a claim. I said it was a more highly anticipated movie than Godzilla and the numbers back that up. Read next time before you jump to conclusions.

@Chris Picard

I love Pacific Rim, more than Gravity actually, and I'll enjoy for years to come more than Gravity. But Pacific Rim the best movie of 2013? Come on. It's unique, it's fun, it's original, but it still has a large set of flaws that keep it from stacking up to movies like Gravity, Captain Philips, American Hustle...etc...

Pacific Rim is my favorite movie of the year. But I say that fulling accepting its faults and understanding it's also not the best of the year.
