Thread: Godzilla and King Kong Stuff (Mike Dougherty, Adam Wingard)

  1. #51
    Just to be clear, I'm not saying it's silly to get excited about the possibility of those monsters appearing in the sequel. I'm only commenting on the "announcement" itself, which many probably read as being more unequivocal than it actually it is.

    It's a solid five or six years away, no? Maybe even longer? What an agonizing wait.
    Less than 4!

    Hard to imagine he's going to pump out a Star Wars movie in between. That's a tight schedule.

    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Holy Shit

    LEGENDARY AND WARNER BROS. PICTURES ANNOUNCE CINEMATIC FRANCHISE UNITING GODZILLA, KING KONG AND OTHER ICONIC GIANT MONSTERS

    2017’s KONG: SKULL ISLAND, GODZILLA 2 in 2018 and then GODZILLA VS. KONG, arriving in theaters in 2020
    Warner Bros. and Legendary released Godzilla in May 2014 with an agreement to release Godzilla 2 on June 8, 2018. Both films feature the human Monarch organization. Shortly following Legendary’s pact with NBC Universal, Legendary acquired rights to additional classic characters from Toho’s Godzilla universe, including Rodan, Mothra, and King Ghidorah. This paved the way for developing a franchise centered around Monarch and anchored by Godzilla, King Kong, and other famous creatures.

    Probably, but that article is from Legendary Pictures, so consider it extra double confirmed now.

    They didn't press release or give official dates yet. This is like when you set a time and restaurant for your date.

    Would that be the King Kong from the Skull Island movie that's coming out?

    I believe so! (Both Legendary Pictures, Thomas Tull, etc.)

    The only thing is that Edwards' Godzilla took place in modern day and I think I remember Hiddleston mentioning on Corden or something that Skull Island takes place during the Vietnam War, so not sure exactly when they'll choose to set the crossover.

    Why? They're still adamant on one Star Wars movie a year, so it's not like we're getting a Rogue One sequel any time soon.

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    My theory is that contract negotiations with King Ghidorah continue to be lengthy and difficult, cuz if it's anything Monty Python has taught us, it's that one of the three heads will always be the contrarian.

    I just feel like once he locks Star Wars, he'll be offered basically every major thing in development and maybe even find the clout for the even more enticing possibility of a studio giving him a virtual blank cheque to do something of his own. I don't doubt he'd still have some passion left for another Godzilla, I'm just not sure if it'll be the sort that keeps him on it in directorial capacity five years after the first.

    Then again, maybe they delayed it for him.

    I honestly think Edwards would choose Godzilla 2 over doing another Star Wars, or most any other "big" movies.

    Giant monsters are his passion. He's said so several times.

    Thank you Henry! For someone who's so passionate about giant monsters, Godzilla sure sucked.
