If done right, it will make Godzilla more interesting on a human level if there is some dramatic emphasis on his pain and trauma from the nukes as well as his loneliness (being the only one of his kind) without sacrificing his animal-like vicious-ness.


This isn't going to happen. Toho didn't even do anything like that. You think LP is going to?

He needs to talk like in Godzilla vs Gigan. And be voiced by Christopher Lee.

GTTM, definitely.

GFW? If I can find one significant similarity between G2012 and GFW I will explode.

He should be a living nuclear weapon.
Every film should have at least one animal attack.

On topic, just give me a Godzilla who is looking out for number one: goes after food, attacks threats.

I want Godzilla to show some intelligence, but not be too humanoid. I definately don't want to see him portrayed as a mere giant animal, like in '98.

Animalistic and feral, but with intelligence and personality.

I'd say a 75% animal, 25% human combo would do nicely
Have some animalisic behavior like the 54' godzilla, (picking up things in jaws, using tail, biting structures, roaring, growling, etc.)
and yet have some human like ones similar to the 80s/90s Godzilla (using hands to grasp objects, inspecting things, using strategy)

What's up with antagonizing "animal" and inteligence? Humans are stupid, that's why Godzilla exist. We would be too egomaniac to understand him.

Hmmmm

I prefer a mix of both. Give him a personality, but make him pretty savage as well.

He should be half and half but maybe leaning more towards the animal side.

Godzilla shouldn't have a conscience but should react to everything its put through. This is no longer a man in suit so I would imagine the human eliment will be kept to a minimal. But at the same time I expect how badass they can make Godzilla this time. Still Godzilla will always have a universal language where we will know what its thinking and going through with a few surprises thrown in. Intelligence, agility and power are all the traits Godzilla needs. Its how the first one was done. And its not always meant for Godzilla to be understood.

No more Godzilla mount punching Monster X behavior.

I want a mix between Heisei Godzilla and Fukuda's Godzilla.

You see thats the issue. Godzilla's intelligence in the movies ranges from being bizarrely human like to really animalistic. There are a few where there appears to be some balance, and thats what Legendary and Edwards should look to.

Very seldom do you see a CGI monster with a personality, which is why we all love the suit action in the 60s and 70s but if your expecting this to be a dark film don't bet on seeing this

Come on! You know better than me that the general audience likes Godzilla only when he doesn't act like a cartoon character.
