You are welcome. :)

Well it can't be as bad as the Matthew Broderick crapfest :D

It does have the brilliant Bryan Cranston

Mark

I'm actually looking quite forward to this. The cast is excellent, I love the dark, apocalyptic tone and the fact that they've kept the Japanese angle, not to mention the monster looks right on the money.

I enjoyed Pacific Rim last year but it was definitely more on the fun side of things. Here's to hoping this is more on the side of terror, death, and destruction.

Bless Zack for endearing enthusiam, no matter how misplaced.

I really didn't enjoy Pacific Rim. Not quite down there with About Time, though. It started off with real style before the boys' own business.

Now, Cranston is as good as actors get. But those poor fools like I who watched him in Total Recall will remember there's only so much they can do in a shitefest.

Who knows, this may be great. It's not very likely though, is it?

Well, I'm off down the shops to buy some of those lottery tickets. You never know.

Quoted from rendevous Who knows, this may be great. It's not very likely though, is it?

Why is it not likely? Have you seen the FREAKING trailer!? AHHHHHH! And all the talent in front of and behind the camera? Pff. I'll be there opening night wearing a Godzilla suit 4 sizes too small for me. And I will love it.

No, Zack. I haven't seen the trailer. I think I'd rather get a haddock and slap myself with it than watch the trailer.

I've seen many trailers. The one for the Avengers (no, not that one, the other one with Ralph Fiennes and Uma Thurman and Sean Connery) looked great. Trailers often look great. If they don't then nobody will go see the movie.

You can't judge how good a film will be on the trailer. That like judging a car on what colour it is.

They do say red ones go faster.

I may be wrong, Zack. But like you I'm entitled to my opinion. We shall see.

I've seen people like you in the front row of the cinema before. You always make me smile.

Congratulations on your enthusiasm, I'm serious by the way. I do wish I enjoyed as many films half as much as you do.

Alas! Enjoy it while you can. One day it may fade when the grey hairs appear and the waist of your trousers feels far too tight. Or it may not. Hair dye and gym memberships and happy pills are available, or so I'm told.

So when the movie releases and receives very positive word of mouth, can I expect an apology for assuming that I'm just a young kid who doesn't know quality when I see it. If I'm wrong then I will apologize for getting overexcited. Let me watch the trailer again real quick... Yep. I need new panties again. AHHHHHHH! Watch the trailer R, you will be impressed and, dare I say, hopeful.

~Zack~

While the first teaser wasn't great, this new full length trailer was nothing short of awesome. Legendary Pix and/or WB has some braintrust in the marketing department. There's a brilliant bit in the trailer where Ken Wantanbe's character gives a brief exposition regarding Godzilla. "We accidentally awoken it in the '50s...the bomb tests were actually attempts to kill it" or something like that.

There';s also the strong chance that Godzilla, while on a rampage, isn't the only player in town. There might be another monster involved. The shot of the F-16s dropping from the sky suggest this. And why wouldn't it be neat if true? Two monsters having a spat, pick a city as a personal cage match.

I'm looking foward to the film more than any other in the coming summer now.
Hekk, I'm looking forward to sunshine altogether...

This is going to be good, that's for sure.  It'll be way better than the shit fest 1998 movie, anyway.

For the first time in a long time, Godzilla really feels like the end of the world.  His destruction feels immense.  I love it.

Looking forward to it, although I'm not too keen on the idea of more than one monster.

It's called "Godzilla", not "Godzilla and Company."

Quoted from Zack ... can I expect an apology...?

Aw, Zack. An apology? They do say manners maketh man. But that was long before they invented the internet - a place that makes the schoolyard seem civilized. You do realise we're not actually in a gentlemen's club, don't you?

As for your comments about your panties I feel you should really reconsider before writing about them again.

I didn't assume you were a young kid who got overexited. I assumed you were Zack who often gets excited by movies.

I watched the trailer. And I'm not excited. I'm not even vaguely interested. If this is a good film I will apologize, Zack. However, it's directed by the guy who did Monsters - another monster movie that was a piss poor of District 9 with monsters instead of aliens.

It's co-written by a guy who hasn't had a credit for ten years and another one who wrote Expendables 3. And Expendables 2.

Good luck with that. It sounds like it's gonna be a big fat turkey with a limp.

Fair enough R. :) I hope you end up liking it.

~Zack~

I believe Frank Darabont did script revisions?


--Steve

Yep I believe he did. :) This is going to be great.

~Zack~

I watch a lot of the trailers for new films, even though I won't ever see any of them, lol.

I liked this trailer a lot! I showed my seven year old son. His eyes were wide. He says, but it won't be scary, Dad, will it?   Lol

Quoted from stevie I like seven year olds alot. I tell them, it won't be scary.  Lol

Stevie...really?  Dude...c'mon now...

Not for me this one... I remember the cartoon... and I didn't think much of that as a kid either.  It was just better than all the other crap that was on in the same time slot during the 80's.

A dinosaur coming out of the water to fight whatever (I really couldn't care less) doesn't interest me in the slightest. My kids will love it though.

Quoted from Dreamscale My scripts are written to the level of a seven year old!

Come on bro,  don't be so harsh on yourself. Fade To White was clearly up to Grade 4 standard

Yeah there is simply no way this won't be great.

Quoted from Zack Yeah there is simply no way this won't be great.

Stop being so sarcastic, Zack.

Give the poor thing a chance. It may not be the cluster fuck the previous non Japanese attempts have been. Then again...

R

i'll go see this just to watch Bryan Cranston chew up the scenery.

and Elizabeth Olsen, unlike her sisters...has some real talent.

77% percent approval rating. :)

~Zack~

Zack,

'77% percent approval rating'

Are you running for Mayor or something?

R

I should be. :)

~Zack~

You were completely right, Zack.

This is a fantastic movie. There's something for all layers of movie watchers. Be it the casual moviegoer or the Godzilla aficionados.

And yet more evidence of a brillian British director stepping up to the plate on a blockbuster.

Cast aside the cynicism and treat yourself to this wonderful movie.

Meh...6, maybe a 6.5, and only for special effects and a little heart tugging.

Back in the day, Godzilla ripped up trees and rammed them down King King's throat. He slammed his fists together like WWF King of Monsters! And that's what started to come out in the end, Godzilla shitting down the cockroach's throat, but that attitude should have come out long before...that Godzilla was going to kick some ass. It should have come out in Tokyo. Then Honolulu. A fight in each city where Godzilla was close to killing that bat thing, but no cigar, and bat thing kept flying off toward the honey from Yucca Mountain. This film is woefully short on Godzilla old school WWF so when the finale came, the audience clap was lame...no set up at all for any clapping. Pacific Rim was better in all categories.

This film should have had a three round fight: Tokyo, Honolulu, San Fran, instead of one (San Fran), with a focus on the fight, not the bomb. The bomb means nothing in the end so why focus on it (except getting a couple tears for Brody as the bomb ticks off)? Having a final fight born from lost battles before means the finale would have garnered a true standing O for Godzilla, the monster that saved our city, our nation, nothing less. How can you root for Brody and Godzilla when only Godzilla saves the day? Split focus=loser.

I felt nothing for any character, even Godzilla. The only moment that was like, damn, awesome, was when Brody set alight the eggs...that was good stuff.

The only scary moment was when the bird hit the bus window. Really? That's all?

Lots of cool stuff when summed up added to less than what it could have been.

Don't think I'll ever watch it again.

The most excitement we had was watching a seat fight before it started.

Quoted from irish eyes Well it can't be as bad as the Matthew Broderick crapfest :D Mark

Hey - I *liked* the Matthew Broderick crapfest.  Then again, I saw it a looong time ago, and can't remember the details....

Awesssommmee movie. Even though I wish this was a straight up Godzilla kills everyone thing it was still good to see him be the hero. The two things I can complain about are:

1. Not enough Cranston, wish he was a main character.

2. The constant cut aways from the battles or of Godzilla. It hypes the action then instantly cuts away. But it had that finale battle, was quite epic.

Overall I enjoyed the movie, got me riveted and when Godzilla screamed for the first time on screen, I was like "Oh yeah...".

One more thing, could of been scarier, I was expecting it to be horrifying, all the death and destruction that was in the trailer had me more scared than the movie. They ruined tension with music.

But, was a great flick, GOUJIRA!!! Me and my friends were flipping out *SPOILER* when Godzilla sprayed his beam  down the female's throat, awesome stuff. 8/10
