18m+ views on AlphabetTube in 24hrs. The trailer looks like a bloody PS5 game. WHERE IS MAN IN SUIT?? WHERE IS JET JAGUAR?????? WHERE IS AIRFIX TANKS AND PAPIER MACHÉ MODELS OF CITIES? WHERE IS GREENSCREENED CITIZENS FLEEING STUFF? WHERE IS THE FAMOUS GOJIRA MUSIC? The actual state of the Gojira design in this film is absolute bumgrapes too. He looks worse than Broderick Gojira! This bloody film looks an absolute travesty. WHY CAN'T ANYONE MAKE A GOJIRA FILM PROPERLY ANY MORE? I WANT MAN IN SUIT. </rant> * I'll still watch it anyway.

Any Godzilla vs King Kong thing after the 80s upgrades is nonsense. Even during The Goofy Period this was one of the silliest G movies. Aliens, radiation, Space Titanium, sure, at least a bad explanation is an explanation. How does a mammal who has NOT been exposed to a bikini bomb or an oxygen destroyer grow to 300 feet tall and take an atomic breath to the chest with nothing but singed hair? It’s just a monkey! In the 1933 movie he’s like 25 feet tall, if that. And that will scare the %#%* out of New Yorkers but he’s not going to be able to rip off Ghidra’s head! *
I honestly lost interest in even Japanese Godzilla movies when the bad CG started to replace the excellent models but they still got the point. There isn’t a single attractive thing to a movie like this new one though. I’m glad the Americans are making it.
*RIP MF DOOM aka King Geedorah.

I WANT MAN IN SUIT.
That said, I would LOVE to see a new Jet Jaguar film. Godzilla vs Megalon is my favourite.
NB:. ..and absolutely, Hollywood needs to leave Gojira alone. They don't have a clue. All drama and suspense and no end product and just vomiting crap CG from every pore.
Seriously that new trailer looked more like a video game than a film. Bloody appalling effort all round.
Not just that but I find it an insult to the legacy of the original film (not the dire US edit and recast). The film had something to say. A big f**k YOU to atomic warfare and that Japan will get through it all. Not to venture down a political trail at all here, suffice to say Japan was not squeaky clean during the war either. But I'm talking about the message underlying the film here, and it's impact on a generation.
The more rubbish the industry spews out, the more the legacy of that film crumbles away.
