While the Godzilla reboot was mostly met with a very positive response, some criticised a lack of action. However, it sounds like the iconic monster will very much be the focus in the sequel as you can see from the Tweets below. As well as confirming that Gareth Edwards will return to direct the follow-up, a teaser played by Legendary Pictures revealed a number of other monsters who will be joining him. Regardless of whether you're a fan of the older movies, almost all of these names should be at least a little familiar and Godzilla will definitely have his hands (?) full whenever the movie is released. How do you guys feel about this news? Sound off below!

Would've liked Godzilla to have been a standalone movie for once, but I guess that was unrealistic to expect with the way that studios do business these days. It's a good sign that Edwards is coming back though, and hopefully he can improve even more on the first film (which was already pretty great, IMO).

Finally going to see some Kaiju beatdowns!!!! Focus less on the humans now that we kinda know Godzilla's reason for existing. He exists as an apex predator that eats all the other [frick]ing kaiju! Glad they're introducing Rodan and Mothra. Hopefully they become allies in the end to take down Ghidora

With all of these classic monsters in Godzilla 2, there better be a LOT MORE ACTION! No more cutting away to something else, full on monster brawl.

Interesting, speaking of Godzilla I haven't seen it yet and is it like Man of Steel and Amazing Spider-Man where I have to watch it to find out if I like it or not?

Spidey91 - 7/26/2014, 12:50 PM
ok, so they went from teasing in the first one to a full blown monster rumble in the second one...works for me! (still liked the first one thou)

"...is it like Man of Steel and Amazing Spider-Man where I have to watch it to find out if I like it or not?"

I'd say it's like ANY movie. I mean, don't you need to actually watch ANY movie to find out if you like it or not? Why is Man of Steel and TASM any different, and why would Godzilla be any different? I genuinely don't understand that question haha.
