the original Gojira and GMK for the later
Watch the 1991 Godzilla vs King Ghidorah just because it's awesome, both for cheese and action

Let's put the whole G'98/GINO vs original Godzilla profile/designs into a more proper and more accurate context, shall we?
Yes. Yes you are.
Good Batman designs according to (multiple members on) GAF:
Bad Batman design according to (multiple members on) GAF:
Yes. Yes you are.

Psyched for this. I really enjoyed Monsters and this has Cranston so my expectations are pretty high. Hopefully it delivers.

1998 Godzilla is not Godzilla at all
Even as a small child I knew that
Didn't look or feel like a Godzilla one bit more like a giant James Cameron alien
I'm glad Godzilla is coming back
The fact that Cranston is involved makes me even more jolly

I'm not saying the original Godzilla design(s) is that good or holds up, but its iconic as fuck and IS Godzilla. 98 Godzilla just really didn't play off of that design, and thus it doesn't really feel like Godzilla. I really hope this movie can bring the design into the modern age and look good without looking as goofy as Godzilla comes off as now.
Amazing.
Oh awesome! Is that revealing tonight?

When's the panel?
GINO lovers, when were you guys born?
lol @ this new design having a "derpy" look. growing up in the 80's loving big-G, I'd have to say this is the best redesign yet, but then again his design has been progressively better with each iteration over the years in Japan.
Godzilla vs Megalon is my personal favorite. And the Jet Jaguar theme is my jam.

This. So much.
98 Godzilla was just so off.
I grew up watching Godzilla and I remember being excited about being able to see it in the theatre. After I saw it I was just like eh... I just gonna go home and watch Godzilla Destroy All Monsters for the millionth time.

The Godzilla panel is Saturday at 10:45 AM PST. I don't know when they plan to reveal it but I'm guessing it will be at the panel.
My man! The handshake....one of the best scenes ever!
Favourite design is the one in Terror of Mechagodzilla (very similar to the Megalon one).
98 is just a mangled blown up version of Jurassic Park in Manhattan... not terrible, but nothing great (well maybe worse because it's not even so bad it's good). Thus deserving of the title Godzilla In Name Only. As for the design, it's serviceable for the angle they were going but clearly lacks the instant recognition. They should have dialed back in maybe 20% of the real G's design.
better than the movie itself!
To be honest, yes. I love Cloverfield but I wouldn't love it NEAR as much without the ARG.

Another look at the model:
I'm guessing the neck will be slimmed down though.

Hm. From that angle I'm not a huge fan of the neck. Seems too wide like a venus fly trap or something (dunno why I thought of that plant).

I really like the look of the neck. It gives him a nice silhouette that differentiates it from previous designs without being unrecognizable.

I remeber staying up late watching the godzilla marathons the scifi channel used to play.

I think this design is fucking boss, Godzilla should be intimidating. That design is scary and imposing. It says King of the monsters to me, he looks like he could wreck some shitAnother look at the model:

The real one probably won't look like that, I'm keeping my expectations wide open.

i really love the look of the flared neck, its fitting
it gives godzilla a bear-like feel it is very imposing
in fact, ignore the tail and he looks pretty much like a standing reptilian grizzly bear

I think fourth row, second from the right is my favorite. Followed by the first two on the fifth row.

Now there's an American Godzilla who looks like he can wreck some serious sh*t. Do the old man proud!

Whoa, is this from Legendary/CC? Either way, awesome.

Nah it's art from 'Godzilla: Final Wars', the last Japanese Godzilla movie.
The final battle between Big G and (wink) "Monster X" obliterated THE F*CK out of Tokyo.

I laughed.
I'm so pumped for this.
So far Legendary is doing everything right IMHO with their Godzilla
compared to how Tristar handled GINO.

Hopefully not much, which would be in keeping with the character.
Godzilla is a slow, lumbering force of nature. A walking hurricane if you will.
He doesn't need to run or jump cause really, he just doesn't give a f!!!!
GINO doing dashes down streets and hurdle jumping tanks.......SIGH.

good call. Itd make for some interesting fights to see Godzilla be more animalistic in his melee combat
I was a huge Godzilla fan as a kid and loved all of the Showa era films (except for that one about the kid dreaming of monster island, even my 5-year-old self knew that was shit) but missed a bunch of the Heisei films (I think saw up to the new Mothra one) and was completely out of the loop on the Millennium ones. Which ones from these two are worth watching? All this new movie hype has gotten me interested in watching some of the ones I missed.

A Video of Godzilla encounter. They just had to stop filming right when they are on the elevator.

Saying the 98 GINO is the best Godzilla is like saying Batman and Robin is your favorite batman movie.
