    I refuse to watch any more trailers. I just want to sit in my Imax theater and enjoy the living fuck out of this movie now

    This would only be significant to English speakers though. His name isn't actually a combination of "god" and "zilla" representing lizards, it's a combination of the Japanese words for gorilla and whale, and his origin is this curious combination and not a reptilian basis for mutation. It's just convenient coincidence that once Romanized these sounds made for an easy re-package for American audiences. Imagine what they would have made up otherwise.

    Well the Japanese don't like this Godzilla. They say he is too fat with the neck of a football player

    http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-en...s-9310028.html

    Clearer images of the monster surfaced this week, and while Warner Legendary was probably hoping they would be described as "jaw-dropping" and "terrifying", the new Godzilla is instead being labelled "fat".

    One user of Japanese forum 2ch described it as "pudgy and cute", with another saying it is "out of shape" and a third noting it has a neck "like an American football athlete's".

    There's actually complaints like that coming from this side of the pond too. Yeah, he is much bigger this time around and he does kind of look like a bear. In a way, they went from one extreme with the design to the other. The first remake had him (or her, jesus that movie) ultra slim and quick, this one is much bigger with mass and size. Although to be fair, not all of Toho's designs have been good themselves. While I love the Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah design at times as it legit looks scary, there's also times it looks like Godzilla has a beer gut. I feel again that final judgement needs to be stalled until the film is released.

    I would go so far as to say that most of them suck. Godzilla looks goofy and campy in most of Toho's films and for decades his image is routinely repaired in artist renderings and drawings, posters and toys.

    Agreed! I felt that last trailer posted was giving away too much. I had to stop it. I'm ready for this. IMAX sytle!

    I'm getting the feeling that Gozilla is a sort of anti-hero in this movie.

    I think X-Men will hurt it, but I think opening weekend will be an explotion. I have high hopes for the first week. Besides, it could stay in the top 10 for several weeks like previous box office success.

    X-Men may be hurt by the controversy surrounding rape charges against Bryan Singer. They're not going away.

    Although probably atrocious don't underestimate Blended either. Adam Sandler has a way to bring in cash with these types of comedies.

    If this film smashes a god awful Adam Sandler film, then Godzilla truly has done the world a favor.

    Not really looking forward to X-Men. The time travel plot sounds dumb. Didn't like First Class, either, or the Wolverine movies. Bryan Singer is overrated, his Superman movie sucked.

    Will probably see Godzilla next week, though.

    The only thing interesting to me about the new X-Men movie, because I simply loathe time travel stories now, is James McAvoy. Singer is definitely overrated, though I thank him for exec. producing House. I simply can't understand his continued involvement in the X-Men series when the studio wanted to fire him from the first one and there was a rumored mutiny by several of the actors. Goes to show you how fickle they are in that town as well as a lack of conviction.

    Yes, his Superman was really underwhelming. I know I didn't give it my all. By this time I was really burnt out and was having a harder and harder time convincing myself that these movies were worth giving fucks about or worth the effort and time.

    Can't help but notice that the commercial is for a FIAT and the major complaint about Godzilla is he's too fat.

    Epic Asian trailer for the film that's been shown in cinemas. The American trailers are showing as little as possible but in Asian countries they are going all out!
