ITS HERE! The First teaser trailer for Godzilla, and its magnificently grim and awesomely so. I love the creepy horror music at the beginning drop:
youtu.be/QjKO10hKtYw
Unlike "Man of Steel" and "The Lone Ranger", Godzilla is an older property that actually benefits from a dark rebooting, as Godzilla was originally betrayed as a horrific demon spawned from man's hubris. And in this miserable day and age of flippant pop culture, American (and surprisingly Japanese) movies audiences need to be shaken up by this classic, non-human antagonist / anti-hero who rightfully deserves his atomic-powered vengeance.
And I honestly believe Godzilla 2014 will have a better chance at the box office than "Pacific Rim" ever did, due to stronger human star power, and the fact that Godzilla is a recognizable brand name / character. Not to mention the fact that this film will be getting added exposure with this trailer airing alongside this weekend's "Hobbit".
I might be a huge Godzilla / Kaiju / Giant Monster fan, but hopefully you can all see that I'm being logical in my assessments here.

Kaiju Videos for May 2020 part 2
Here's a new collection of May kaiju vids to enjoy, pretty cool stuff, especially the new Wikizilla video :D
Wikizilla posted a video about everyone's favorite subterranean sea beetle god, Megalon! Seriously, WHEN is Megalon returning to the big screen? Gigan got a comeback, complete with H.R. Geiger influenced redesign, so why not his drill beetle buddy as well? Legendary, Toho, one of you make this happen already.

Happy Birthday to Akira Takarada
Today is the birthday of classic Toho leading man, Akira Takarada! He's a familiar face to all of us kaiju fans who've grown up watching Godzilla movies from the Showa era all the way through to the Heisei and Millennium eras (plus that scene they cut out from Godzilla 2014 lol), and who've been lucky enough to meet him in person at conventions around the world. He's given us so many happy memories and as someone who's met him in real life, seems like a very friendly man overall, so I wish him a very happy 86th birthday, and many more!

While the series isn't wall-to-the-wall monster action, its definitely a lot of fun and, as my friend KaijuDuke has noted, one can appreciate it a lot more now as an adult than as a teenager with a working man's perspective but it's still bright and upbeat enough for children to get into - worth seeing for both the mecha vs monster action and, of course, the slic

Im actually not going to watch anymore trailers for this so I can be completely absorbed in the film without any more foreknowledge.
