For me, I want to see the movie first because what if it sucks? I personally think it looks fantastic but again I would have to see the movie first. 

Well, Gareth Edwards only joined the project about 3 years ago. Before that, only a very broad outline for a new Godzilla film was drawn. It hasn't been cooking for THAT long.

Also, your enthusiasm is great, but you'd only be thanking Edwards for great trailers, unless you've somehow already seen the finished film. It could totally suck, you know. Very rarely does a film go through the hands of 5 or 6 average Hollywood writers and come out shinning. I want it to be fantastic, but don't expect a phenomenon. 

yes

Like the others said, we need to see the movie first. 

Secondarily, I don't know if I would verbally 'thank' him, even if the movie was good. It was his job, he got paid to do it. I have to pay to see it. If he did a good job, I'd thank him by seeing it again. 

The more money this movie makes, the higher salary he can leverage if they contract him to do another one, so I figure that's appreciation enough. 

It's not like he did me or anybody else a favor by making the movie. Maybe if he gave me a comped ticket or something I'd thank him. But failing that, I'll vote my approval/disapproval with my wallet.

There is no need to use such a vulgar language, please moderate your tongue, you must respect to the other members and follow the rules of this forum.

hey now you never know he could be raising a chicken coop! it's only a good form of respect to such a good director to accept his offerings!

Yeah, let's see movie first.

I'm not thanking anybody yet. If I've learned anything from anyone, it's definitely from the Duke Nukem fans. They waited so long for that game, Duke Nukem: Forever, and they got such a miserable game.

We watch the movie first. Then we praise or condemn it and its creators.

I agree, the movie needs to come out and be obsorbed into my eye balls before I thank anyone.  But if everything I have seen about this film turns out to be tue, than Gareth is getting a hardy thank you and a bear hug from me! :)

BigBadBen,

You speak as if we've seen the movie / everything about it is the ultimate Godzilla movie ever. I'll say I'd like to thank Mr. Edwards once I've seen the movie and if it's good. But by that same token I'd also like to thank Shusuke Kaneko, Takeo Okawara and even Mazaki Tezuka for their efforts with previous Godzilla movies. Edwards would be no different.

for every thing he has done with Godzilla im very happy of what he has done with it and hes not just Directing it but whats best of all also hes a FAN of GODZILLA and when i see this on May 16 it will be my favorite GODZILLA of all time I CANT WAIT Gareth Edwards THANK YOU I LOVE IT you have made my BEST GODZILLA OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!! and my DAD!!!!!!!!!!

In my opinion, I think this movie is going to rock, by looking at these trailers, the footage looks awesome and of little we truly know about the script or story we need to see the movie 1st. You can have lots of action in a flick but if there is no good story to support it, it's going to suck. But I don't think that's the case, Gareth Edwards said he grew up a godzilla fan and the casting seems great and again by looking at the trailers, I have to assume that this movie not only is it going to rock but going to be epic as well. So far my verdict is, I'll applaud him, cause I think they put a lot of effort in this film and seem to care to give us the godzilla we deserve, a kick ass film. Even if I'm wrong, it doesn't matter, 1st impressions mean a lot and I'm impressed with what I saw out of those trailers I've seen.

I'm hoping, I'm right that this movie going to kick ass. I'm crossing my fingers on this one. Godzilla is awesome.

Out of any other member in this web, i think junkerde has the most foul mouth of all..I dont know what is the reason of you being rude and talk like shit though..u r are so arrogant and ignorant..please change that..

I'm going to be seeing the original Godzilla in Hollywood this Saturday, which Gareth happens to be attending. If I happen to pass him or if he takes questions, I want to at least thank him and his team for the effort and courage to try to bring Godzilla back. We have yet to see the movie, but it looks like it's been handled well so far and it could have gone a lot worse.
