Godzilla was supposed to be the good monster fighting off the bad monster. They made a very dark version of Godzilla.

Godzilla was not always the "hero" monster. He has been depicted in movies as both good and bad.

The early versions were. He didn't turn bad until the 1984 version "Return of Godzilla".

9 Misconceptions People Have About Godzilla

Like I said, he has been depicted both good and bad. And I am pretty sure the very first movie in 1954, Godzilla was not a friendly type of guy......just sayin'.......


Considering Godzilla is a giant metaphor for the atomic bomb in that flick, I would say the Japanese did not intend to cast it in a positive light.

Yes, I read Wikizilla too. But the majority of the films depicted Godzilla as a sort of savior. The Godzilla vs (insert evil monster here) movies. This is what really defined the character.

This new movie remakes the first version so he'll be the "bad" Godzilla.

First, I didn't read Wikizilla...lol. Second, I am not disagreeing with you that Godzilla has been portrayed as a good guy in most movies. I am simply telling you that he has been depicted as both good and bad and that in his first movie he was definitely not a "good guy".

The trailer from the top of this page is footage from the movie. Kinda verifies other monsters will be involved.

All I know is that the REAL Godzilla breathes fire when you push a lever on the back of his neck and can shoot his fists at you.

The trailers really needed an asian guy pointing at the sky and hysterically yelling "Godzilla!"
Just sayin.

RE: OT: Trailer for Godzilla 2014
When I first saw Godzilla and Mothra I was a kid and that's a long time. At that time I was like you guys are, excited and a little apprehensive, but hey I was still a kid.

It may turn out to be a good movie but when I watch it this time I won't be so gullible. I think I'll stick to Tuesday 1 dollar night to watch this version. At least if it sucks I won't feel like I got taken by Un-Holywood.

Have fun watching it guys.

What exactly were you gullible about? I have never taken a Godzilla movie seriously except for the 1998 version which was a huge disappointment. I just watch Godzilla to watch monsters fight. But I'm also glad this movie will have a more serious tone to it and I trust Garth Edwards to do it right unlike the 1998 version.
