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

[Chris55]

I'd like some news that proves the LPG Godzilla film is actually in development, and not just these hazy "updates" every 8 months or so.

What I posted is from Legendary themselves.

Pfft..wow, all I had to do was scroll up a bit. I missed that. Thanks!

For those of you who care, here's some info on the background of the movie:

1 August 2007 Optioned Property
9 September 2008 Development Unknown
29 March 2010 Optioned Property
26 October 2010 Script
Undergoing rewrites.
10 November 2011 Script work continues

Very nice work chris!
How were you able to obtain that info from Legendary?

im curious as to what is taking the script so long though. Are they waiting on Toho approval or were there just other delays?

Oh that stuff Legendary updated the IMDB page with. My editor has IMDB pro. He sent it to me

1. We finished the script.

2. We're looking for the cast. Once we find them all we will start filming.

3. We finally decided on a design.

4. Here is concept art of the new final design. Enjoy and let us get back to work.

Pretty much this.

[DinoZillaGod]

Im hoping for some concept art and whether or not they'll use Toho monsters like Bagan, Rodan, Anguirus or others, or their own.

[Gyaos]

Anything signifigant really. Posters, Cast, sign that the script is finished, etc.

I hope for atleast a sneak peek at some concept art even if its unusued, that way we can get some of idea of the direction they're going in terms of the design.

[CookieMonster]

I'm hoping for some cast announcements, and maybe some concept art this year.

[shinmattiathekaiju]

I just want some goddamn news!

[CookieMonster]

I just want some goddamn news!

I know, seriously!

What normally happens when a movie comes out? A synopsis, cast and crew anouncements, teaser trailers, posters, stills, maybe some concept art or toys, etc. I expect to at least get a good glimpse of Godzilla before the movie comes out, like the new King Kong or Kraken. Hiding him was one of the dumbest things GINO did.

[gatorzilla]

The thing to think about and trust me i was worrying a lot too for awhile is that big movies like this, especially if they plan on making it a franchise, are going to take some time to develope more so than a lot of others. Examples I can think of are Transformers where the movie was announced in 2003 and didnt come out til 2007 and Avengers was planned way back in '08 and is coming out in 2012. Chris Nolan was brought on to direct Batman Begins in 2003 so I understand where big stuff like this will take some time especiallly if they are making a big franchise from this.

I just want some goddamn news!

Tsk tsk, you're awfully demanding.
Good news we must have, not long we wait.

[fgravagna]

that it actually gets released

[Hellspawn28]

I just like some info on the story. After Ghost Rider 2, I just hope the writer does a good job on Goyer's story for the film. Ghost Rider 2 is based on the story that Goyer wrote and the plot is very weak to honest.

David Goyer wasn't on Godzilla very long, I assume he just did it for Legendary Pictures before he started another project he was signed onto. I believe he just wrote the outline of the story an Max is working on the dialog an character's.

I read somewhere a while ago while scrolling threw web pages that Callaham's script was completely rejected, So really this is Godzilla's second writer i wouldn't complain if they brought in someone else. Just make sure we have a solid plot an likable character's.

I'd blame the directors more than anything. They made a simple story more complex and confusing than it should have been.

Tsk tsk. You are asking too much.

[Gorosaurus Rex]

Something gets announced, and we get a release date. I remember the wistful days when I used to frequent this subforum, but its now speculation built upon speculation. It's even weirder than that even. It's like...nitpicky speculation. Speculating about the weirdest tiny granuals to feed the ravenous hordes needs for speculation.....

[tenup]

^Good point Gorosaurus Rex. This subforum has got nothing going for it but members continue to agree that speculating over a film that has yet to reach any kind of progress (to our knowledge) is better than discussing the more serious issues with it. Its unbelievable how many threads has opened up with regards to how Godzilla should be etc. My only concern now is that we are in 2012 and we still don't even have a title for this film yet. I consider myself a bitter Godzilla fan after the let down of the final film and the last American Hollywood attempt, 2 films which had potential to make a big impact. So of course there is concern over this project and I want to know what's going on. Its as if Legendary Pictures is in complete disregard to the fan base that have been sticking to this thing since the comic con tease.
