So what do we know?

For the discussion of the upcoming Godzilla film by Legendary Pictures.

So what do we know?

Postby TheSecondComing » Fri Sep 09, 2011 4:43 pm

I've been out of the loop for over a year, so since I don't want to read 177 topics of speculation and blah-blah, I figure I'd just start a summary of facts topic.

What do we know about this movie as of right now?

We know that:
-Legendary Pictures will be making the film.
-Gareth Edwards (Monsters) will be directing the film.
-David S. Goyer (Co-wrote the Nolan-Batman films and the Blade Trilogy) will be writing the film.

That's about it.

Gareth Edwards is directing.
David Goyer is writing.
There will be at least one other monster besides Godzilla.
Godzilla will be CGI.

I think that's basically all we've got. I may be forgetting a detail or two.

-The design on the shirt was just a placeholder design, the real design for the film if they even agreed to a final one yet is unknown at the time.
-At least two rejected designs were found.

Those 'rejected' designs weren't official. They STIL:Lprobably aren't at a concept art stage, but I don't really know that.

They've stated an intent to pay homage to the spirit of the original Japanese Godzilla (the character as a whole, not necessarily the film Gojira) and distance their project from GINO.

It may be likely, but he's asking for confirmed information.

Goyer also left The Man of Steel for the Godzilla reboot.

We know that the movie's gonna suck and there's no hope for it. Americans shouldn't make Godzilla movies especially if he's gonna be computer generated.

Totally. Emmerich is a better director than Edwards ever will be.

If you don't have anything constructive to write aside from flame baiting me why not just shut up?

I am going to assume this is sarcastic, but if not am i the only one who actually want's another American Godzilla, granted i am not a fan remotely of GINO but i'd really like to see a good American Godzilla even if it doesn't live up to some people's expectations i do love the excitement an advertisement's an teaser's we get, esp since i am not in Japan to see there's.

So i can say i am thrilled Hollywood is getting another shot, As long as it's the real G i'll enjoy it.. Some will be pickier then other's but i can't say i wont be going crazy when the teaser an Official trailer come.

We know he'll be fighting 1 or more monsters and that the movie script is being re written by David S. Goyer and that the movie is still in Development, which is skreeonk up because at this rate we won't see this movie until 2014. On the other hand it will be the year of Godzilla's 60th anniversary. :|
