I was thinking to myself, that perhaps Godzilla and the Mutos could be from the Carboniferous age. That was an age where reptiles/amphibians and giant insects ruled, for 60 million years that age lasted. Sounds plausible to me.

possible.

but Godzilla seems just a tad bit larger than your average friendly neighborhood dinosaur.

or look at Flair's man boobs. Woo!!

Oh definitely, whatever age he comes from, his species will be unlike any living creature that ever walked the Earth.

 

[Roose Bolton]

Didn't the director of GMK once say that he made his Godzilla a vengeful spirit zombie thing because he didn't think that anyone would buy the Dinosaur angle anymore?

that's for sure.

 

[X Knight]

oh, and what is GMK?

Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All Out Attack.

 

[X Knight]

Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All Out Attack.

thanks.

 

[John Locke]

I'm thinking Godzilla was a dinosaur who was awaken and mutated by the nukes.

 

[BrollySupersj]

Oh, tiny nitpick here. IF Godzilla happens to be from the Carboniferous period, he technically wouldn't be a dinosaur. He'd be an amphibian or early reptile/synapsid. Just food for thought.

Fun fact, in the original Godzilla film, Godzilla wasn't a strict dinosaur. That didn't come till Godzilla vs King Ghidorah in 1991, with Godzillasaurus (who is also unlike any dinosaur when you think about it). In the 1954 film Godzilla was referred to as a hybrid marine and terristial reptile.

So the Carboniferous period theory would be more appropriate with the original Godzilla canon which this movie seems to be following quite a bit.

Or playing basketball.

They don't hold grudges.

 

[Hunter Rider]

I'd recommend seeing the original 1954 version at least. It's quite chilling in it's own right.

Took your recommendation and picked it up.

I guess it depends on how much the radiation actually changed him. I mean a creature his size is impossible no matter how you look at it....he wasn't that big Pre-mutation in GvsKG

 

[BrollySupersj]

We'll the leaked script says that bones from one of Godzilla's species found in Siberia were absolutely massive. So going by that, Godzilla's kin where all naturally huge

 

[Roose Bolton]

I'll chalk it up to movie logic then

 

[BrollySupersj]

Hey, just think of it this way, it makes this iteration of Godzilla all the more mystifying.

 

[Roose Bolton]

You have a point there. Plus it's better than Zombie Godzilla.

 

[Hobgoblin]

Didn't the director of GMK once say that he made his Godzilla a vengeful spirit zombie thing because he didn't think that anyone would buy the Dinosaur angle anymore?

Was that part of the story where Godzilla was a kind of punishment for the deaths caused in the Pacific War?

 

[Roose Bolton]

Yeah, he was powered by their need for retribution.

 

[Hulk1968]

I admit, GMK was a pretty decent flick and loved the 'retribution' angle it played heavily upon

And those white, pupil-less eyes Godzilla had. Creepy

 

[craigdbfan]

You know what's great about this? The sound and the roar.

Edwards and company aren't kidding when they said they're trying to replicate a "natural disaster/calamity" not only in the visual sense but in the audio aspect too (proved by their partnership with Dolby).

Goji's scream reminds me of the type of ominous noise of an earthquake or when a lightning bolt hitting a transformer on a telephone pole. I'm sure many of you can relate it to any other natural disasters you may have experienced.

They have managed to capture the auditory affect on the human senses caused by the calamity and chaos of nature. Completely nondiscriminatory and utterly horrifying.

This movie is going to be insane in IMAX.
