This will probably have a similar viral marketing campaign like Captain America Civil War, with Team Kong in a playful meme war with Team Godzilla.
Sounds like it'll be a fun few years ahead!
I’m not that pumped for it (doubt I ever will be), but it’s sure to be monstrous. If they keep the focus on the main event (or at least make it count), even better.
shareHell yeah this looks pretty badass!! In this sad day and age of nothing but gay superhero movies its nice to see something cool being produced
shareIt was pretty bad. Hollow Earth? really?
shareHollow Earth is exactly the nonsensical kind of fake science thing one wants in a Godzilla movie. It's been the bread and butter of the franchise since the 1950s, and it only served to make an already awesome movie even awesomer.
shareI agree. People keep criticizing this like it was science fiction. It is science fantasy, as surely as Star Wars. Kaiju film is fantasy with sciency language and shiny gadgets. Essentially, there was one serious Kaiju -- Gojira (1954) -- and that was a horror movie with a science fantasy setup. This film brings the current series into line with the tone and content of all Godzilla films after the original.
shareI'd argue that the first of the current Godzilla series took more of a sci-fi based approach, with almost an arthouse sensibility at times, but beyond that, they're all campy fun. A hollow earth makes as much sense as a giant lizard who not only survives having an atomic bomb detonated in its face, but grows stronger from it, which is right in line with Godzilla tucking his tail between his legs and using his breath to fly, or Rodan disintegrating into pixie dust to resurrect Godzilla after Mechagodzilla had chopped his brain into little pieces. The more ridiculous the better, as long as we get to see giant monsters pummel one another, and even better when it's amazing CGI and not a guy in rubber suit.
shareyou will be disappointed
