MemberMothra LarvaeMay-02-2014 10:25 PMHey guys! New Godzilla clips have hit the web!
Most don't reveal any plot points we don't already know, most are just extended versions of scenes we've seen in the trailers. The last one though shows off some very good looks of the monsters :-)
KaijusRock already linked one of the spots in the discussion before mine, but I believe the rest of these are 100% new. If they are repeats, I'll accept the thread lock.
Enjoy!
Spoilers Ahead!!!
Some of my first impressions (slight spoilers of the content in the clips above):
The music in each of the scenes does a great job complimenting what's going on. However it is definitely 'background' music, rather than memorable theme music so far. Of course that may change once we hear more of it.
The Admiral in the last clip refers to the "Alpha Predator" (presumably Godzilla) as a 'He'. Now the Admiral is no biologist, so the Admiral might not know, but using the 'he' instead of 'it' or 'she' potentially answers some gender speculation that has taken place.
Brian Cranston's Japanese is actually pretty good. I was impressed anyway :-)
We basically know now that the Muto have EMP, which is AWESOME :-) One of the more important implications of this would be it would limit the types of weapons we could use against them. So even if they aren't hyper durable, it wouldn't matter, because the most powerful weapons in our arsenal rely on satellite targeting and other things an EMP would disrupt. So we would actually NEED Godzilla to take these things down. It's not just a plot device, but an actual problem....and that's nice to see :-)
Well the clip possibily confirms how the MUTO flies (flapping vertically to take off and gliding alot for the cruise phase).
As for Bryan Cranston, he does seem to channel a bit of Walter White here. :)
Avoid the "This is my job" clip if you don't want spoilers
My favourites are "Let them fight" and "You need to get out of there".

I actually noticed there's a theme that plays in most of the scenes (Wondercon footage mostly) and it consists of three notes. BUM...BUM- BUUUUUM!!!
It plays in the first clip where we see the cloud coming toward Sandra.
"Daddy's home- cake every night,"
Why are they running like that? The only terrible acting that I've seen and it's running... It's in the 5th clip, they're running at like 2 mph
^^ truth be told they'd probably just seen it and literally just started running when they realized there was something scarier in front of them...
I dunno, in MOST running scenes in MOST movies they run pretty slow. It seems to be a part of filmmaking. Tom Cruise being an exception of course :-)
Yeah, it does hurt the suspension of disbelief, but it's not just a 'Godzilla' thing. I guess I've just gotten used to it.
i doubt there professional actors anyway. still love the last one. they godzilla deffinetly has some personality to him
