Already ahead of you joker old bean & like i said before i hope stick they with this gdozilla & not reboot everytime fans didn't like the film cause while i love toho bringing godzilla to my life i hate how they reboot the big g when he's doing so well in a era like the early showa films where godzilla was the main antagonist & the Heisei where they added some depth into godzilla's origins & personality like in godzilla 1985,godzilla vs. king ghidorah,mechagodzilla 2,spacegodzilla,& destroyah.
You ether die a trilogy or live long enough to see yourself become batman & robin

Any word on whether the new Toho film will stick with suitmation?


Don't believe anythings been absolutely confirmed on Suitmation being incorporated or not, but it would be nice in a way to distinctly separate the current Toho Godzilla with that of the Legendary franchise.

Wasn't really overly impressed with the recent trailer, but wasn't disappointed either. It has some really cool and interesting shots, while others featuring Godzilla appear to be unfinished. I do like how the trailer highlighted the battles between Godzilla and the military. Which is reminiscent of Godzilla 1954 and Godzilla 1985, and (to paraphrase Jack Nicholson from Mars Attacks!) that's not bad!

Yup. There's a new King Kong coming out. Which appears to be one of the largest, if not THE largest Kong yet.




As a guy who digs giant monster movies, I'm curious to see more of this. The connection to Legendary's Godzilla doesn't hurt, plus I'm also curious to see if Kong will be re-established as a unique "neither beast nor man" type of creature as he was in the original 1933 film (also in the 1977 remake as well), than just going the Peter Jackson route and making Kong essentially a giant silver back gorilla. Which was fine, but kinda took away the mystique/uniqueness of Kong.

From the poster, it certainly appears to be more the former than the latter, and that's great!

Here's the trailer <iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/E591L_sxw-k" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I'm a huge fan of Peter Jackson's epic remake so I'm always interested in anything Kong. This one quite good and Kong is ENORMOUS.

Yeah, this trailer has done nothing but perk my interest even further, and yeah, Kong better be enormous if he wants to take on Godzilla at some point ....  ;)

When it comes to Godzilla or Kong, I'm a Kong guy.
