Tsunami

no, the tsunami was formed by godzilla moving through the water. He is waHat caused the tsunami. but that was a cool idea.

This is totally different then what this article is about but I'm wondering if they used the mysterious "Bloop Sound" in the pacific ocean to explain something weird or something of the unknown for godzilla. You know pretend it's godzilla making that noise not some iceberg.

A man made natural prison eh?...Sounds very Final Warsish. A cool proposal no doubt, but I can't say for certain if that fits. Very interesting talk DYNAMICPEANUT. That username lol. You're the best, really. I guess we will witness the truth come may 16th.  

Thank you guys for the replies. In response though, how would godzila cause the water to recede? Or cause a typhoon? And the spoilers stating that he is forced forward by his ancient enemies could just mean that he would have been fine swimming around after he was released instead he fights them.

I've wondered about that too, despite G's immense size, would that enough to cause a tsunami like that, with the water receding away from the beach? If anything, he 'd cause a "storm surge" of water. Hmmm!  

think of it like you are swimming in a pool and approaching the edge of the pool, when you get there the water will slightly rise and create waves temporarily because you are dispersing the water with your body, now image a 200 foot (or whatever the size) monster doing this, the effect will be much bigger, plus him actually getting up and out of the water disperses a ton of water as well

A lot of people have been saying it's big G but it's mostly the receding water I was talking about, godzilla wouldn't be able to bring in that much water.

It's physically impossible for a wall of water such a tsunami to "release" a creature like Godzilla. The causes of a tsunami are a bit more plausible, but still highly unlikely. Godzilla is not capable of causing a typhoon either. That was a typo/misuse of wording on the part of the one who suggested it.

The most likely reason for Godzilla's reawakening are more environmental on a basic level rather than on a concentrated level.

The primary cause of tsunamis is called "subduction," when one tectonic plate slides beneath another. Such an instance would be more likely to kill a slumbering Godzilla as he's crushed to death between the plates as they slide against and in between one another. Godzilla's big, but the Earth's tectonic plates are bigger and much, much more powerful.

Godzilla's reawakening is likely much more simple of a matter. Increased radiation and environmental changes due to mankind's interference with nature is what Gareth Edwards seems to be going for. According to him, and what information we know of the movie so far, Godzilla is the product of a time when radiation was more plentiful on Earth. When it drops, he is forced into hibernation. As far as we know, the nuclear bombs dropped in the 40's are what caused his reawkaneing. He must have been close enough to Japan to sense the change and wake up. In the 50's, the tests were attempts to kill him and somethign happened which forced him back into hibernation until 1999 when he attacked the Janjira plant. Then he comes again in 2014. 

But what happens in between? More hibernation? Attacks that are simply not shown?

I think those are better questions to ask. After all, if Godzilla wakes up in the 50's but disappears for over 40 years to attack in 1999, why did the supposedly unstoppable force just disappear? Why did it happen again between 1999 and 2014?

Those questions are far more interesting to contemplate I think.
