And maser tanks aren't going to break the audience's suspension of disbelief. If we can accept sound wave tanks in the Incredible Hulk, the Ironman suit in general, and the flying battleship in The Avengers, I'm sure maser tanks would be accepted as well. Unlike, say, a Super X or Mechagodzilla.

A mechagodzilla is definately out of the question. Why would you spend so much time designing a robot that looks like the monster that its designed to kill. The super x would be fine though. Its bascially a flying tank, which isn't too unrealistic when compared to things in recent movies.

Based on what Edwards said, it's safe to assume this film will have a more grounded down to earth feel, so no fancy stuff yet.

^ So are the new Batman films, yet they still have the Batmobile. I don't think a maser tank is out of the question. They're almost as famous as some of the monsters themselves, the iconic Godzillaverse weapon.

Some Masers and a special Flying unit (ala Super-X) would be great.

Like Monsters, I think Gareth Edwards would add a military mix at some point.

Ok, I just thought you were posting the plot from "Battleship" as a joke. Sorry.

But one thing for sure, there will be military involvement, maybe even some new weapons. The us has been testing "ray like" guns, and it be pretty cool seeing it in a American Godzilla movie, it most likely would be a prototype.

Also could someone please bump this? I have to do the "Planes", "Navy Ships", "Helicopters", "Unmanned Ground Vehicles", "Unmanned Air vehicles", and "Individual Soldiers"...

Edited: Stuff I want to see in the upcoming Godzilla film(Land Systems)

Vehicles:

M1A2 Abrams: Main Battle Tank,

Image

I would love to see some Lighter tanks though like this however

Image Like this

Image Or like this

M2/M3's: These are tracked Infantry Fighting Vehicles

Image

Strykers: Light Infantry Fighting Vehicles

Image

LAV 25: Almost the same thing as Stryker.

Image

Humvees:

Image

FPI Cougars:

Image

Oshoksh MTVR:

Image

M119 105mm Towed Artillery:

Image

M981:

Image

M109 Paladin:

Image

MLRS:

Image

Other stuff I want to see(Land Systems)
