Still wait until the trailer comes out... last time Godzilla was quite anticipated but ended up like a so-so film. Some even consider it a joke sweat.gif

Godzilla 3D Producer Talks Reboot, Rumors

user posted image

Brian Rogers, one of the people behind Legendary Pictures’ upcoming reboot of “Godzilla”, recently attended the 3D Summit in Universal City, CA, where the boys at Zennie62  cornered him and got the lowdown on the reboot, Internet rumors, and just what exactly Godzilla will be facing in the upcoming movie.

Some of the highlights include:

- The Godzilla bust ? Nothing to do with Legendary’s Godzilla movie, says Rogers.

- The rebooted Godzilla will be faithful to the original radioactive monster, atomic breath included, one presumes.

- Godzilla will be fighting more than one monsters in the movie. So, no lame Godzilla vs. the U.S. army battles. Well, there may still be that, but it won’t be the only battles for our monster.

- The movie will be live-action, in 3D, with CGI, and not animation. This was apparently in response to some animated scenes showed at the Legendary Pictures booth at Comic Con 2010.

- Look for the atomic breath attack sometime in 2012.

Here’s the full interview (below) with Brian Rogers:

Godzilla Updates: Pacific Rim? Del Toro? Confused?

user posted image

After taking some gratuitous pop shots at some news website, the boys at Latino Review  flexed their Latino Power muscle and revealed a very interesting bit of news about the upcoming “Godzilla” reboot from Legendary Pictures: namely that there are plans to merge oh Atomic breath with a sci-fi alien invasion treatment from “Clash of the Titans” writer Travis Beacham called “Pacific Rim”.

According to LR’s sources, the whole thing went down like this: apparently the script that was turned in for the “Godzilla” reboot failed to set Legendary Pictures’ skirts on fire. The suits decided they liked the Beacham idea more, and now plans use Beacham’s “Pacific Rim” as the basis for their “Godzilla” reboot.

In the original “Pacific Rim” 25-page treatment (no script yet), “malevolent creatures” (aka monsters from outer space, we assume) threaten the Earth, forcing mankind to unite to fight back using highly advanced weaponry. Now just swap “highly advanced weapaonry” with “Godzilla”, and you have your “Godzilla” movie.

And oh yeah, Legendary Pictures has apparently also offered the directing gig to Guillermo Del Toro, which makes “Godzilla” the 206th movie Del Toro is now currently attached to in some form or another. I kid, I kid, but the man sure has stayed busy since extricating himself from the growing mess that is the “Hobbit” movies. Whew! Got out just in time, huh, Guillermo?

Monsters’ Gareth Edwards Lands Godzilla Directing Gig

user posted image

If you think about it, it was a no-brainer: Legendary Pictures has signed up “Monsters” director Gareth Edwards to direct their reboot of the famous Japanese atomic lizard. He will now work with a writer on the big-budget project for Legendary and Warner Bros.

Edwards burst onto the scene with last year’s “Monster”, a low-budget sci-fi movie about giant alien creatures stomping around Mexico after a NASA satellite unwittingly brings them to Earth. The film was made on a low six figures budget, and kept most of the monster action off-screen aside from the occasional tentacle attack. The creatures, though, did show up at the end at a gas station, where the film’s two main characters were also shacking up.

Besides the upcoming “Godzilla” for Legendary, Edwards is also writing and plans to direct another sci-fi “epic” for “Wanted” director Timur Bekmambetov, who has gotten into the producing business in a big way.
