Godzilla - Official Teaser Trailer [HD]youtube thumb

Personally I think this is a very suspect trailer. I really enjoy all the hazmat stuff I see, gives off the feel of an actual disaster movie. Not a disaster porn movie, but a DISASTER movie, with genuinely bad things happening to innocent people. That said I am disturbed by how very, very much this reminds me of the World War Z trailer.

Still got shivers during the Halo Jump though. That absolute devastation. . .

Word is up that the scene with the nuke in the trailer, is the Castle Bravo nuclear test, which in the movie's universe the "test" part was the official story of an attempt by the US goverment to destroy Godzilla in 1954.

Holy shit, this Godzilla took a 15MT Hydrogen bomb practically point blank and survived.

According to the leaked plot details (which must be taken with the provervial grain of salt), the skeleton is of another of Godzilla's species. Allegedly, that scene is where they find the Muto's eggs.

Was that a MUTO in one of the spots? Not much is seen, but it looks a bit different from the one in the toys.

OTOH, I do understand that there are two in the film (a male and a female) and they don't look exactly alike.

Hype engines are springing leaks, cap'n

>90% rehashed footage from the first trailer
>dat awful smoke/waves cgi, don't tell me it's just in post-production, may is like 20 days away
>why didn't they just use real smoke for the reactor leak
>yet another edit of Godzilla and then the Muto's leg coming down like it's Godzilla's leg what the what?

Major props for the heavily implied "Godzilla comes to eat a leaking nuclear reactor" plotline, though. Godzilla being a radiation munching monster is more interesting than Godzilla just stepping on a city because yolo.

That's a pretty normal occurence as trailers go.

> dat awful smoke/waves cgi, don't tell me it's just in post-production, may is like 20 days away
Don't be silly, it looked alright.

> why didn't they just use real smoke for the reactor leak
Dunno, perhaps they didn't manage to make it move like that.

Think along the lines of Alien, Jaws or Jurassic Park, where the movie teases and builds up to the reveal of the beast to avoid CGI fatigue. The director calls it "cinematic foreplay."

I hope that doesn't backfire on the movie, the " Just Here for Godzilla " trope is called like that for a reason. I mean, I know a ton of people that got pissed off at Cloverfield because you barely saw the monster. The payoff has to be HUGE for the buildup.

Why must Godzilla movies always have to focus on the puny humans so much?

>> No. 40225

The original film had Godzilla only making landfall twice, once for his fifteen-minute rampage and then once more when they use the Oxygen Destroyer. Much of the film was focused on the human suffering in the aftermath and wondering just how they were going to stop this thing. Two hours of Godzilla smashing things non-stop would be boring if we didn't see some consequences.

Also, this movie has the benefit of not being a found-footage flick.

And you're certain of this how? Ninety-plus minutes of constant action gets boring really fast. The best monster movies have tension and build-up.

Also, having really well-designed sets helps too. Note the lack of green screen.

People are bad at identifying exactly what they don't like about things. It's very easy to misattribute your dissatisfaction to superficial issues rather than the true causes. For example, people say they didn't like Cloverfield because you barely saw the monster. In reality, people don't like Cloverfield because it was a FUCKING TERRIBLE FUCKING MOVIE.

People seriously seem to have no idea of just how little Godzilla appears in his own movies compared to the human plot. This isn't some new thing, literally every major Godzilla film has had a large focus on humanity dealing with him and trying to survive or stop his bullshit. Even Godzilla: Final Wars, a movie known for having more giant monster fights than every other film in the series, spends more time on the Earth Defense Force dealing with the Xilliens, than Big G himself.

So, there are some reviews out. The consensus seems to be that:

A) Bryan Cranston was good, and the movie would have benefited greatly if he was the main character.

B) Aaron Taylor sucks ass, and he brings down the general quality of the film

C) the first third of the film actually spuns a nice mystery, but the second act doesn't really do anything with that, and nobody cares anymore when shit finally hits the fan.
