For some strange reason someone over at Legendary Pictures wants another crack at Godzilla. News broke this week over at Bloody-Disgusting that the studio behind The Dark Knight, Observe and Report and Lady in the Water wants to ressurect the fire-breathing giant once more. The report is pretty vauge, only giving confirmation that Legendary Pictures will re-boot Godzilla. No timeline is given or any talent attached, so we can assume this project is still in the infant stages.
When I first read about a new Godzilla I was disgusted. What for? There has been enough films to last a lifetime. Majority of the Godzilla haven't been huge over here in the U.S. and neither was Ronald Emmerich's 1998 disaster that starred Matthew Broderick, why does Legendary believe that people in the U.S. are craving more? I really can't see this turning out to be a very good project, but I guess there is a slim chance that the studio will take the right direction with the iconic Japanese mega-monster. Stay tuned for more news on 'Godzilla' as it develops...
What say you? Are you interested in more Godzilla? Is there reason to hope for a good version? Strikeback...
