Legendary Pictures, announced they scored the rights to remake “Godzilla” from Japan’s Toho Co. Warner Bros. will release the film and plans to release it in 2012. A director for the film have already been hired, but they will announce who it is sometime in the future. I imagine it will probably be a Japanese director.

Lets hope this will be better than the shitty Roland Emmerich remake. None of the new Godzilla remakes were any good anyways. I loved the classic Godzilla Japanese films. I was obsessed with them as a kid.
Wonder if they’ll try and make this version more like JJ Abrams “Cloverfield”.
Legendary pictures claim they will stay true to the Godzilla characters as the Japanese films, but I don’t know. I just have a feeling it will be a 3D CGI full of action effects. It probably will be a computerized CGI Godzilla. Those days of a man wearing a Godzilla costume for film are over.
