Meh
It looks good to me, several shots are pretty damn awesome but opinions and all. Then again I don't really want to see Godzilla fighting other monsters either so I'm probably already in the minority there.
I'm actually with you on the fighting monsters bit. I want more Godzilla movies where it's just Godzilla wrecking the shit out of Japan and being scary as fuck (this is probably why Godzilla 1985 is one of my favorites)
Man in suit really ins't the problem here. It's just really not well done here. Godzilla just standing 90% of the time in the trailer with his tail moving like that lol, plus the speed at which his tail is moving doesn't sell the scale.

Honestly the last time Toho did really good suitmation was Godzilla 2000. Maybe GMK, but the rest of the Millennium series was average at best.

All I need to see. Will forgive the bad CG of the helicopters if his beam is on point.

It does look like he has a purple glowing Vagina in his mouth. That would be a very Anno thing to sneak in.

This is thr kinda Godzilla movie I like. Having him as an antagonistic force of nature is the best direction they can take him in.

I need this in my life. No word on American screenings yet, sadly.
Get ready for power lines and trains.
I think that by choice, it pretty obvious they want 1954 godzilla style suit.
I like the purple atomic breath.
This suit is much thicker around the legs than the 1954 suit. Ironically, it's most like the Heisei suits in that regard.
This movie is a reboot, first time humans see Godzilla.Yes there is a strong theory that says that he is the original Godzilla from the 1954 Gojira movie

How so? All the trailer showed was some concerned looking Japanese people in meeting rooms and the military shooting at a moving tower shaped like Godzilla.

I wonder how it compares to the second trailer for the Amercian Godzilla.
I enjoyed this trailer, and am really anticipating this Godzilla movie. The design is just growing more and more on me. I really like how Godzilla feels like a damn lava flow, slowlly rolling in and destroying everything in his pass. I like that Godzilla looks like he can barely even movie. It makes him look immense, and in complete agony.
The overall atmosphere of the trailer is great, and is exactly what I want out of a Godzilla movie. My favorite G-film is Godzilla Returns/1985, and the best film in the series is Gojira bar none, so I really wanted to get back to this kind of Godzilla. film There really is a feeling of great despair, and a lack of hope. Godzila looks to be completely unstoppable, like the force of nature he should be. Man will pay for their sins lol.
And man, what the fuck was going on with his mouth at the end of trailer? Can't wait to see what kind of thermonuclear breath weapon Godzilla is packing in this, because that shit looked nasty.

I am excited for this, I just hope there is a US theatrical release. I don't think I can wait for blu-ray to get released.
The Atomic breath is giving me GMK feels

Music is outstanding! Don't know if it's old or new or whatever but damn is it powerful,
This doesn't look like a Showa essque film, and I'm glad it's not. Deadly serious, antagonistic Godzilla has always been my favorite.
I can kinda see that. Man GMK had a great breath weapon, this shit just made me go Wow:

Best Godzi movie as far as I'm concerned, it's only flaw was the terrible CGI. I loved the white pupils look.
It's my favorite millennium film by far, love it. I have the poster framed in my room, because it looks fucking awesome:
There was something cool about a straight up malevolent Godzilla.

Yeah, that's a great poster.
It was actually the first japanese Godzilla movie I ever saw. Those films were not very popular in my country but after hearing about it online I imported the chinese dvd from a shady website around 2003. I fell in love with it and ended up watching every movie in the series.
I miss the Millenium era, it started just ok but after GMK it became great and stayed that way until the end even though GMK was never topped.
Irrelevant. He was clearly referring to the movie as a whole compared to the Shin Godzilla trailer. And even if you were to compare the two, the 2014 trailer still demonstrates the disaster tone caused by monsters better even if the actual movie wasn't exactly 1:1 with its trailers. So I remain perplexed as to what is considered "a million times better".

It even has a yellow tint. Very Evangelion-esque.
The Heisei suit was at least proportionate. This suit looks like a really odd mismatch of 1954 upper body with Heisei lower body. I don't even think the Heisei legs got that rediculous.

I don't really like the design in this one
It's just trying too hard and I've never been a big fan of the more gimmicky designs like most of the Millenium series. Which why I'd always like the Heisei design since it was a natural evolution of the original design.
I just wish we could see an updated 54 design without the design bits that make it look like it came from FNAF.

This shit looked freaky as hell. Way excited. Ive been jonesing for another scary Goji like 54 or GMK, but pushed way farther. Looks like that's what I'm getting.
Now it seems even freakier.

Even though it most resembles a heisei design?

I really enjoyed the trailer. The music is just... wow. Really beautiful.
I think it looks great overall. Is this going to play anywhere in the US?

I don't recall any of the Heisei Design ever having a decomposing look to it, but maybe it's just me.

At least it seems its going to have more impactful music than 2014 Godzilla. Think one of the biggest problems of that mpvie is the totally forgetable and mediocre soundtrack done by Desplat (come one, of you are not a fucking fan and never touched disaster movie soundtracks, dont even try to make one).
Why they didnt use Giacchino still boggles my mind to this day. That man would have made the movie sound exactly like a Godzilla movie must sound but giving it his own spin. He did amazingly well with the Cloverfield credits, and he is the best at tributing soundtracks when he works with something already famous.

I thought it was an interesting role reversal, hahaha.

Haven't been a fan of the Japanese Godzilla movies since Godzilla 2000, but I'm actually a little excited for this one.
Loved the older ones as a kid, and still really liked the 90s ones (The King Ghidora, Space Godzilla, Destroyah ones).

That's about the closest one, but even then it hardly looks corpse-like like the latest one.
It's just I don't really care for the exaggerated face and teeth and the decomposing look as a whole. It feels gimmicky to me since Godzilla didn't really need all that to be considered scary.

Looked terrible. Godzilla looks like a fucking toy. Why can't Japan get its budget and CGI right?
Its Hideki Anno directing so its most likely done totally on purpose.
It does kinda remind me of burning Godzilla with the glowing parts.
Yeah, Shin Godzilla had a very similar glow to Godzilla when he was melting down. And more importantly, they share those thick thighs.
I'd have to agree with you on the Millnium era. I got a lot of enjoyment from the films that proceeded GMK. And although I do like G2000, and Megaguirus, they do feel like weaker entrees.
That doesn't say a whole lot. Eva 3.33 spared no expense in the animation department. Unless his approach to live action is totally different.
He wanted to do a suit, if wanted CGI he would have got it , it is not a budget thing.
