What News Do You Hope To Be Announced This Year? (ver. 1)

"We always ask ourselves, If you turned on CNN and all of a sudden this huge creature emerges from the bay and it can breathe atomic fire, what would happen in the world? That got us very excited."

Not trying to be a negative Nancy, but I hope he is using that description loosely. Cloverfield already did a "realistic" monster movie approach.

[Cimmerian Dragon]

^ Cloverfield did the plot-light, style-heavy version. If Godzilla gives me the mirror image of that, I'll be happy.

[Jomei]

It's not news, but it's nice to have confirmation that they're still thinking of Godzilla as one of their next big projects.

Do you want Godzilla to sing and dance? I think that the inclusion of atomic breath in his description already indicates that the fantasy elements of the franchise are being kept very much alive.

Atomic stuff is SCIENCE!

[GodzillaIsCool]

That isn't what I am saying at all. I don't want Godzilla to go quesy-cam. Holy shit.

Thats not what Thomas Tull is saying either. Basically what he is saying is if Godzilla all of the sudden appeared what would happen in the world? What would be the consequences of it? Would he destroy us or would he defend us from other threats? Hes pretty much talking about how to bring Godzilla into this modern generation.

Hell no! I want see the titular character in his full glory, not just few body parts through shaky cam.

[GodzillaIsCool]

I hope that is what he means! He seems like the man btw.

[Blackout286]

Soo....Friday is here (Or its almost Friday for different timezones). Kapow starts this weekend, anyone think we'll get some edible info upon Godzilla?

[gatorzilla]

Fingers are crossed big time!

So I thought about what Edwards could possibly have to say regarding this new Godzilla movie and would expect either of the following statements:

Edwards
1."I'm not allowed to give away too much, but I can give everyone a heads up on something big to come within the next couple of months."

2."Well so far we have a script and are currently working on casting auditions. We are just about set to begin filming within the next few months."

3."I just finished watching the entire 29 Godzilla films. My favorite one is the American version."

The 3rd statement is something to worry about.

[Living Corpse]

Even if the 3rd one was true he would never be allowed to say that due to fan backlash. LP would just have him lie and say the first one is his favorite one, which he did. I remember people making a big deal out of that and I kept telling them "guys, saying the first one is the best/your favorite is the most cliched answer to any series and easy way in getting fans to trust you."

Not saying he is a fan or not and I'm not saying he was lying or telling the truth about the first one being his favorite, I'm just saying it'd be stupid and bad publicity for the project if he said the American one was his favorite. No one would want to see the film and lose faith in it if they heard that.

[Destroyer]

Well Gareth Edwards will be at Kapow and rumor has it there will be Godzilla news. I'll be posting it over at Unleash the Fanboy since a colleague will be there giving me any scoop on G.

[Godzillabrawler]

2."Well so far we have a script and are currently working on casting auditions. We are just about set to begin filming within the next few months."

This seems like wishful thinking. I doubt this will be announced any time soon. It'd be nice, if a bit out of left field considering we haven't gotten anything this major on the film recently.

1."I'm not allowed to give away too much, but I can give everyone a heads up on something big to come within the next couple of months."

I'd be content with this kind of response, because then we'd have a heads up to get excited about.

[ZillaEra]

The director's panel Gareth Edwards will participate in begins at 7:00 PM London time, which is in about 20 minutes, so if we get any information, it should be in the next couple of hours.

[gatorzilla]

Fingers crossed! Anticipation kills!

[ZillaEra]

I know, I wish I could be there.

Don't they say something along these lines every few months though?

[Killswitch]

I hope we hear something from the guy, because I am starting to think this project is going to die. Oh, I expect LP to make a Godzilla film, but it won't be from this team of players.
