From what we can learn from this is it is our first time as Americans seeing Godzilla. It is not the original but a modern version. We know he isn't the original, he's a modern version. And as for the name, he's known as Zilla instead. But we still call him Godzilla cuz' he's our Godzilla and the first we encounter that has the same roar as the original. Who cares about size? Zilla's my fav. They planned a sequel? I want to see it! Ah well, we got the series where Zilla Jr. is in. watch it!

Actually the first time Americans saw "Godzilla" was in 1956. America named the "thing" from Japan "Godzilla" and Toho Co. Ltd. stole the name in 1962. The name "Zilla" for the '98 Godzilla is a Japanese way of trying to take the "Go" (the respect for a God) away from the American version. Well, I have news for the Japanese.......the beast in New York is a God and the Japanese Godzilla is a downer.

[Johny2662]

@ShadoControl ...Why do you say that? I mean we hear people being critical about Zilla the downer and Godzilla the real deal.

[ShadoControl]

@Johny2662

Because those that are critical of the 1998 US version of Godzilla, the actual name, do not have juris doctorates, or studied law to get one, and therefore their premise is incorrect which results in conceived, distorted opinions. Make note these opinions are American opinions. God forbid they were Japanese opinions without the right for a rebuttal. Thanks.

dont you get it? dean delvin just explained the movie. they didn't want to be disrespectful by fucking up the old godzilla by making a new one. besides, does the fucking name have any thing to do with the quality of a movie?i mean come on, and the dialog was not cheseier than the old ones, i mean in one godzilla movie they said he had 2 brains. wtf? besides, there was supposed to be 2 sequels. maybe the godzilla in the sequels would come back more powerful and have fire breath and fight monsters

@multiversalpictures

I'm shopping that script and the novel "KKXG" is on Amazon. Thanks!

[Gyaos23]

Fantastic news and information! They brought the idea to Toho in 1989? 9 YEARS TO MAKE? Wow.

[Gamewhiz321]

to Dean and Rob:yeah thats why toho studios killed Your monster in the last movie!

[seanteezzyy123]

@XxComablackxX1937 im not going to get my hopes up about that because it might turn out like the 98 flim

[XxComablackxX1937]

@seanteezzyy123

I have seen ''Godzilla: The Series'' while it is loads times better then the film it still isn't Godzilla.

They changed the design way to much an the attitude an spirit of the Original Godzilla are still missing.

No doubt the series are entertaining, but Godzilla is a giant behemoth, unstoppable by any know weapon, Deep Roar, up-right figure, n invincible.

I will always see this creature as ''Zilla'' I hope the American Reboot by Legendary does him justice coming in 2014

[seanteezzyy123]

@multiversalpictures thank yu for saying ths

[seanteezzyy123]

@Johny2662 i agree 200 percent with you, Godzilla(zilla jr). is every bit of the old godzilla the only different is he dont look like him, and their creature name was gojira the Amercains called the creature Godzilla toyko ppl stole the name for themselves, so they can not change our godzilla name

[Johny2662]

@seanteezzyy123 Yeah and you know, that series was a better idea since cartoons are ageless and less expensive and the son is born and fights all monsters like it is traditional. If only there would be movie series based on the cartoon.

[seanteezzyy123]

@XxComablackxX1937 watch godzilla the series and tell me what you think

[seanteezzyy123]

@multiversalpictures godzilla the series is actually the sequel to the 98 flim

[seanteezzyy123]

@ShadoControl i agree with you at least there are still zilla fans out there

[seanteezzyy123]

@Johny2662 i love zilla too!!!! and there was suposse to be a sequel to the 1998 flim, but due to the neg. feedback they didnt do it. thas why godzilla the series came out to where we meet zilla jr

[multiversalpictures]

hmm..... Cubs won.
