'Godzilla: King of the Monsters' (2019)

Shout out to Debussy.

I'm really not into the Godzilla franchise but those beasts look awesome, and the cinematography looks promising as well.

r1 Which bussy?

My goodness. That trailer was poetry.

Was that Mothra @ 1:23 ??

If you grew up watching these rubber suits duking it out in English dubs on TV, this shit it catnip...

WHO IS THE SHILL POSTING ALL THESE NEW MOVIES LATELY? There's Aquaman, Halloween, and who knows what else??? GET THE FUCK OFF DL.

It's Comic-Con so of course the trailers are dropping left and right. Also, some of us come to DL to discuss current movies and TV shows, you'll be shocked to learn.

And what's with the all-caps? Insane much?

Sally

wondering which monster Sally Hawkins is gonna bone this time

I’m dying to see this. I loved the Godzilla reboot and this looks terrific

Thank God! I was terrified we'd go a couple more years without another Godzilla movie!!!

r7 Had no idea she was in this movie but got excited when I saw her in the trailer. Looking forward to hearing her speak again. But yes, I also immediately thought of what r8 said.

I’m glad to see Ken Watanbe and Sally Hawkins are back from the first film🙌🏾

This looks beautiful, Mothra looks glorious. There were some truly wonderful moments in Godzilla 2014, I hope this continues, and improves upon that.

Godzilla 2014’s plot was too unwieldy at times but this one looks simple and beautiful.

Anyone know anything about any backstage drama with MBB and this movie? I heard someone mention today that some in the cast or the crew were referring to her as the King of the Monsters from the movie's title. I hope it was just a joke.

I love the "Clair de Lune" music piece.

R6 STFU, basic fan bitch.

I'll see it for hot daddy Kyle Chandler.

Simple? It doesn't look simple at all. They have to bring the titans out to fix... global warming???

I still can't believe they killed Juliette Binoche (!!!!!!) in the first ten minutes of the last one

That first film was one giant tease with no emotional payoff from a character perspective, but Godzilla's atomic breath was cool. Hoping this film actually delivers. I like the director a lot.

Sally Hawkins bonded with a mystical amphibian creature in an Oscar winning movie, and now it's Godzilla. I wonder when she'll ever get a normal movie role?

I completely disagree r21, I think these monsters are amazing when you show them fleetingly but become a bore when they are around onscreen forever. Gareth Edwards made an amazing movie and I’m very worried about his absence in the sequel.

That said: The trailer looks pretty good ... but why is MBB the lead? Is she not a child?

SALLY!!! 💕

Godzilla with the flaming mouth is back!

Is Cher gonna appear in this one too?

She would if she could find a way....

My partner loves Godzilla, he’s happy.

R25 they have employed more than enough monsters in the movie already. No need to have one more

I hope the teeny twin chicks are in this.

“MOOOOOO-THERA!!!!!!”

Not surprisingly the music publisher put out a video of the trailer music featuring the Clair de Lune arrangement.

R29 Oh God, yes please!

They MUST have this in there!

Wow, I have no desire to see this.

The music made this trailer.

Cher pre-dates dinosaurs, so her appearance would be historically inaccurate. Nancy Pelosi, on the other hand.....................

To me the definitive Godzilla is the original Japanese language version from 1954, Gojira.

R36, it’s on TCM tonight. I’ve never seen it, only the version with Raymond Burr.

R37, I just checked my cable guide & it's on at 6AM tomorrow morning (eastern time).

The Raymond Burr version incorporates a lot of the stuff from the original version into that movie - some scene dubbed into English, some left in Japanese, with Burr "explaining" what's going on as if he's there in the room. But the anti-bomb/war aspect of the original film is toned down.

The original has a unique perspective, given Japan is the only country ever to get hit with atomic bombs . . .

Mmmm

You into leviathans, r39?

Hey R27, if your partner needs someone to go see this with, I’m available

Godshilla

King of Monshtershj

I fucking hate Liza, but I love the Liza troll

Love Clair de Lune. An excellent use of it was at the end of The Right Stuff. The ending of Oceans 11 paid homage to that.

Is Ziyi Zhang playing a Japanese again?

Who can tell r45?

They all look alike to Americans

What was the monster @ 2:02 just before Charles Dance says "long live the king"?

Awwww someone needs a hug

r47 From the description:

[quote]...including the mighty Godzilla, who collides with Mothra, Rodan, and his ultimate nemesis, the [bold]three-headed King Ghidorah.[/bold]

I enjoy Godzilla movies, but I will avoid, on principle, anything that features Millie Bobby Brown.

I fucking can’t wait and I rarely am excited for films. This one I’ll be throwing my money at theaters.

R47, that’s King Ghidorah

Cool trailer

In 1968, it was called Destroy All Monsters.

Where the fuck is Hedorah the smog monster?

Will Jet Jaguar make an appearance?

Sally Field is in this movie?

Dude was in the first one. Now he's being reduced to sticking the middle finger at photographers behind his wife's skirts. LOSER!

Mmmmmmm

R58 why did he marry a much older woman? I highly doubt it was love

Oh man, that trailer looks cheesy and awful, so I am SO there in 2019!

However, my enjoyment will probably be just of the cheese factor, because if Gareth Edwards isn't directing there's no way it'll be as good as the 2014 remake. Which wasn't great but which was much better than it had any right to be, Edwards used some excellent camera work to rise above the generic script - you felt like you were right there with the monsters looming over you. But then, I don't demand much in the way of quality from my Japanese monster movies, if they're ridiculous I'm almost as happy as if they're good.

Love the smog monster! That was my favorite movie, when I was a twelve-year-old nerd!

But this movie won't be complete unless it has Mothra's tiny girl sidekick, and the leading team of monster scientists includes a ten-year-old boy.

Final trailer.

When are they doing "Godzilla Meets the Mushroom People"?

Bring on Ultraman!

So, how are they going to make this a female empowerment film?

Godzilla has come to save the earth. I just imagine him rising from the ocean to do this to Trump, Miller, and all of their ilk.

The monsters in the final trailer at r63 really don't look that great. The more they show them, the more they look like a computer game, especially when fighting it out.

Shit that retard girl ruined the movie

r69 Have you seen it at a press screening?
