Whoever did the write-up in the first one must have low standards. a 30 second generic found-footage shot of people running is not amazing.

I think it looks okay and certainly scarier than most if not all other Godzillas, but the nose is kinda derpy. I like the creepy eyes. There a black and white drawing I think may be a production sketch floating about the internet that looks much better. On the subject of the trailer I hope that is just some hype thing not actual footage from the movie or even the style they are going to go for in the movie because if so.... Bleh.

The word 'amazing' gets thrown around way too much right now. I do like the design though. Those beady little eyes are off putting in a good way. Hopefully it comes off well in action. |

THANK YOU ANNO
Freaky as hell. Makes me think of the Indianapolis story in Jaws ("like a doll's eyes").

It looks like there going for an original 1954 like look there. Just imagine a train carriage in his mouth and the look is complete.

Wouldn't be surprised to see it just be his own movie, since the slogan is "Godzilla Vs. Japan" on the poster. Kinda like him as a wrecking ball.

I like the current US one more, even if Japanese fans apparently joked it is "fat Godzilla", though it still received a much warmer reception than "Zilla", seemingly.

The nose is kinda weird, but I do like how Godzilla looks legitimately frightening.
It's the tiny eyes combined with way too many teeth which almost makes it look like it has a Joker-like grimace.
EDIT: ...and now with the explanation that Godzilla is supposed to resemble a mushroom cloud, it makes complete sense that he'd look like a giant evil cloud with beady eyes and rows of sharp teeth. So the nose doesn't look strange to me anymore.

The design from the second link does look pretty good but my god that trailer looks like ass. people running while a camera shakes far more than should ever be allowed in a professional film. How original and always a staple of the greatest cinematic works in history. I really hope that's just one scene and the whole movie isn't found footage. Even though I actually like Cloverfield, it would really suck to have Godzilla knock off a Godzilla knock-off. I like the current US one more, even if Japanese fans apparently joked it is "fat Godzilla". They didn't, these reports described the reactions in a single thread of a single forum, because for some reason US media outlets love to report a single Asian person's behaviour as a nation-wide craze. |

He kinda looks like an angler fish. Very deep sea look to him.
I like it a lot.

I'm guessing Godzilla just ate a bus load of stoners

Even if Japan didn't think our Godzilla was fat, I did.

Never realized his head was supposed to look like a mushroom cloud. Neat. Morbid, but neat.

I still really like the idea of a kaiju film as a disaster movie and I wish Cloverfield hadn't ruined it for everyone.
And that look is definitely not what I expected out of a Shin Godzilla, my mind was going towards a more 90s Burning Godzilla design, or some other suped up version of the normal look. I can't decide whether I like it or not until I see it in motion but I appreciate that they're going for a more naturalistic design instead of the romanticized badass dragon-dinosaur.

I like it, though I'm guessing he's going to be a villain in this one? Wish they'd make their mind up on if he's a heel or face.
