15 Years Ago... THIS is what happened.

LOL Thats what I said! It's the only obvious disaster of 1998. XD

In all seriousness, if they do tie them in together, heads will roll. I don't think they would dare, still it's an hilarious conicidence.

So many Godzilla eggs XD

Nope nopenopenopenopenop!  soooo much nope.  Well, maybe.

I hope not, at least.. Maybe people will like zilla more, or maybe the date was chosen as a nod to the movie, and not a direct conecction. I hope this debate doesnt get out of hand.

He did say something terrible happened

If the two are connected in some way, it would certainly draw some attention and consideration for this scene in the Godzilla (2014) teaser trailer:

... which closely ressembles this scene from Godzilla '98:

Interesting, no?

*looks at pictures* Omg that's not even funny Chris... :(

@teozilla

SAY IT AIN'T SO!

Im gonna sit in a corner and cry for a bit after the evidence...

I hope this doesnt happen..

Evidence? What evidence? It's just far-fetched speculation based on some coincidences.

Man, some people take this stuff way too seriously. Pretty sure no one at Legendary would lift anything out of the 1998 film with a 30 ft pole.

I know I know...

Its just the horriblle memories taking over my brain...  the memories...

I know, just thought it was a funny coincidence, hahaha. I knew it would ruffle some feathers. ;D

I like the idea! However, the American Zilla was in 1998. 15 years ago from now, 2014, would be 1999. We have a lot of typhoons and floods in the Pacific during that year.

still, love the dream that this....

grew into this

Well, nobody knows when Cranston's speech is given, it could've been given in 2013 (which is also when they woudl've actually recorded it). Which would line the dates up perfectly.

Some people get their Jimmies rustled.

It's just so... so... BURN IT WITH FIRE!

You guys need to know your math, this movie is 2014, hes speaking NOW in 2014. 15 years ago is 1999, and not Zilla. THe only that happened during that time was Orga tried to eat goddamn godzilla and got blown to bits. Take note it was 1999 for Japan

Perhaps in the movie, we they are looking at the aftermath of Godzilla's destruction, they will find a crushed Tri-star building. That would be great! If they did that in the move just to make us feel good that Tri-star got what they had coming to them when they made the garbage that Zilla spawned from. I respect Zilla as his own monster, but not in the he came from. I mean it was decent to a degree, but still, just awful.
