I am very hyped for this film. My most anticipated for 2013. I attend university very close to where they were filming some of the Tokyo scenes in Toronto and was able to see the transformation. Also I guess Morn can't update the OT at all. Perhaps we should get a information thread going to gather everything into one post which can be updated. With SDCC happening next month I'm sure info will be coming in.
Del Toro's Pacific Rim is the Godzilla movie GINO wasn't

Is someone really saying that Splice is better than Del Toro's directed movies?? Oh lawd. Splice is the perfect example of taking ideas that could generate real dialogue on social issues and turning it into a parody. Its execution is so flawed that it's hard to take anything it tries to say as a film seriously. Instead it makes for a pretty good laugh. It's up there with The Happening as far as unintentional comedies go.
I wonder why I didn't notice this move before! The premise sounds fantastic. Also, the plot summary reminds me - indeed - of Evangelion, which I just started watching, after GAF brought it up. Love the whole idea and concept of Evangelion.
But how come there is so little known about this movie project? Not even a teaser trailer as far as I can tell. I hope the movie release isn't getting delayed.

Expect to hear more about it next month at SDCC.

Either I made up lies about the Boston Bomber or I fell for someone else's crap. Either way, I have absolutely no credibility and you should never pay any attention to anything I say, no matter what the context. Perm me if I claim to be an insider
GINO?
What does that mean?
Godzilla in New Orleans?

I am sorry. Giant ocean monsters fighting giant robots is suddenly a compelling concept worthy of a really solid directors time. I did not mean to have doubts on such a sophisticated and deep concept. I am sorry if a Voltron film not called Voltron was a bit beneath my hopes for Del Toro.
I missed the part where a film can't be more than its basic one sentence concept.
Jurassic Park is about dinosaurs being brought back to life and put in a theme park.
See what I'm saying?
Yup. However if it's Godzilla partying with the (emotionally, damaged) chicks from Girls Gone Wild then we got ourselves a fucking movie mang.
I can just see the tagline now.........
JELLOSHOTS. BOOBS. MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTHRA............
Godzilla in New Orleans 3D.
It could be awesome. I am not saying it will be shit. I was just more excited by his previous 2 or 3 projects.

Del Toro's not that great, and certainly not above this.
Did you see the Hellboy films?

Forreal. That's where their strengths lie and also the area of film they're clearly the most interested in.
I really liked the Hellboy films. And Pan's and a couple of his other non English films were a lot of fun. I wish he was still on the Hobbit.

I'm not sure I would describe Pan's Labyrinth as a fun experience ha. I do think it is one of the better movies I have seen in the past ten years though.
Well it was fun in that I enjoyed it multiple times.
You better be sorry. Giant robots > anything you like. FACT.

Disagree. Del Toro just needs to go back to making Spanish films close to his heart, rather than Hollywood monster movies.
Unless said monster movies contain GIANT ROBOTS. That's really all that matters here. Focus on the important details!

You and your transdongers, ducky.
Okay, don't be rude. My dong hasn't transformed into anything yet. I only get to watch Prometheus tomorrow!
Giant robots suck. Giant sea monsters are awesome though.

Your dong will be like a scared turtle.
This movie will prove once and for all that giant robots > giant sea monsters. Literally!
Oh I hope those sea monsters crush all of humanity and prove how awesome they are.
And after that they will rip off their shells, revealing that they too were giant robots all along!
We shall see. And salt water screws up robots anyway so that is not even a concern.
I don't think you know much about giant robots!
