Go Go Godzilla - Discuss the new look

So Toho is hard at work making a REAL Godzilla film and it's been a big secret. Very little has been shown of how Godzilla will look, if he would be a guy in a suit etc... All that had been revealed was that it was going to be a reboot and that they wanted Gozilla to be scary.

Well the first pics are in and it at least appears they're going to at being using a guy in a suit for some of it...

Here was the first glimpse:



Then a few days ago some more shots appeared:










It's a drastically different look than we are used to and I'm totally fine with that. I really hope that this film gets released in the US like Godzilla 2000 did! Anyone else been following this?

Man, that eye freaks me out.

I think I like it, I like that he looks more sickly and mutated. I've heard that they are going back to something closer to G'54 with it, so he's more of an actual monster than superhero and friend of children. I believe the poster says something like "Japan versus Godzilla", which I kind of hope is the title.

Definitely on board, especially if it's a back-to-basics thing. I mean, I love the G-Force, the psychic nonsense, Space Godzilla, Destroy All Monsters, Final Wars...all the silly stuff...but a serious Japanese Godzilla film is something I want to see.

The title is "Godzilla Resurgence." The suit apparently is being operated by 3 people as it's much larger than any previously used. I see that one of the two directors is the guy who created Neon Genesis Evangelion.

I'm not sure how I feel about the new look yet. Word is that this isn't the only look he'll have, that he'll regenerate several times throughout the movie. I'm hoping for a more serious movie, but after 12 years it's exciting to see a new Japanese Godzilla movie.

It's not real nor authentic unless Matthew Broderick is in it, dammit

Yeah typically when Toho reboots Godzilla they seem to make the relaunch a bit darker and more serious. Then it slowly degrades into Kaiju Madness after a few films. I also really think that Japan resents the fact that people love the 2014 Godzilla so much. I think there is a big sense of pride for them to topple that film and show people what a true Godzilla film is like.

I'm getting pretty hyped for this and I'm probably gonna start watching some Godzilla stuff. Hey Barnes, what is the name of that Godzilla comic book that you've mentioned in the past?

Godzilla: Half-Century War. It is the best Godzilla story ever told. I'm not kidding. It is more toward kaiju madness though, there are specialized teams for each kaiju that monitor and track them. But it's about this soldier that was there when G first appeared in 1954, and it's about the next 50 years...kind of an Ahab/Moby Dick relationship. The artwork is just killer, James Stokoe wrote and drew it.
