MemberMothra LarvaeMar-07-2014 10:27 PMif you watch the IGN video where they talk about 20 minutes of the movie they saw, they mention a huge surprise that is shown during the halo jump AND the train scene. They also mentioned there is clues to what it is in their trailer review, if you watch that the only predictions they make is that rodan is in a scene.... so is it that much of a reach to say they paid a licensing fee with their cogillion dollar budget to bring in a twist?

MemberMothra LarvaeMar-07-2014 10:33 PM(And once again) it is not Rodan. We now have pictures of the enemy kaiju, if that isn't enough to disprove the Rodan theory...
Anthony.1432
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-07-2014 10:36 PMOr maybe they aren't revealing the secret since it's, idk a twist? If you knew everything about a movie why go see it? I'm sure the sixth sense marketed Bruce Willis as a ghost the entire time right ?
Anthony.1432
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-07-2014 10:38 PMBut maybe you wrote and directed the movie so maybe you know.
kaijugroupie84
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-07-2014 10:42 PM@Anthony.1432, no, Rodan would be kinda stupid to add into a movie that's supposed to be reintroducing the character to a new audience. We fans would be the only ones to understand who Rodan is, maybe have an easter-egg about him, but save a Toho Kaiju for the sequels.
Anthony.1432
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-07-2014 10:46 PMpeople don't need to see the origin story of it to enjoy the character, it could be a nod to fans to know it's him, and plus IGN basically came out and said that's what the secret was, I'm not pulling this out of thin air.

MemberMothra LarvaeMar-07-2014 10:47 PMI think that confirms there is one godzilla.
Its either that the skeleton was for 1954 Gojira OR rodan is in the movie, or both :)
Durp004
MemberBaragonMar-07-2014 10:52 PM^or neither. I'm gonna go with that answer.
Looking at the other foes there's no way Rodan would fit in with them. If they were reptilian, and looked like dinosaurs then I could see a nod at Rodan to go with the other pair, but they have no similarities so unless Rodan comes completely out of left field I don't see it happening
Anthony.1432
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-07-2014 10:54 PM@G2k Yea I was actually going to mention the skeleton but it's not the godzilla shape or anatomy looks like a muto, but I could be wrong, but good idea! I like where your heads at
Anthony.1432
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-07-2014 10:57 PMI don't think Rodan needs to fit in with the Mutos, with the writers they have he could come from a number of different angles.
kaijugroupie84
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-07-2014 11:04 PMGareth said that the origami in the beginning of the trailer has meaning to the "Big Spoiler" after the HALO jump. I'm placing a bet that Godzilla flies like in Godzilla vs Hedorah O___O
Linkman89
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 12:04 AMFirst off we don't know for sure that it WONT be Rodan so people need to stop saying that. Second there are several other monsters in the movie so knowing that one kaiju isn't Rodan doesn't mean that Rodan isn't in the film. The toy that's been revealed doesn't exactly look like a flyer. Finally introducing Rodan is far from a bad idea. Having new and old monsters alike is always a great idea for a film like this. We'll have to wait and see though

MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 1:29 AMI agree with Linkman89. While I don't personally care one way or another as far as classic Toho monsters showing up in this film is concerned (I'd be perfectly satisfied with just Godzilla and the Mutos), I've been confused at the number of people stating as indisputable fact that no classic monsters would appear. The most I've heard from official sources actually linked with the film is that the Mutos in particular would be creatures completely original to this new film.

MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 2:33 AMjust wow.
AggressiveKaiju45
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 5:16 AMActually in an empire interview with Gareth Edwards, he was describing some of the key points in the main trailer, and he confirmed that none of the old toho monsters are in this film.
Life is very simple, but we insist on making it complicated.

Anthony.1432
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 9:03 AMOfcourse he would say there is no other Toho monsters, that's why they call it a secret... people are so gullible.
WRSMOV
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 11:24 AMthere is another classic monster in the new film. godzilla always call for help if there's more than two monsters against godzilla. there'll be a lot of mutos, they're like ants crawling everywhere and coming out of giant holes. also the director says he'll like to do destory all monsters in the sequel so we will see another classic monsters in the film leading up to the sequel.

MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 12:15 PMANTHONY.1432 - You are doing the same thing that a few other people have done.
You are projecting your own desires and hopes for the movie into a jumble of information that never once even mentioned your own theory.
That doesn't work ANTHONY.1432.
Rodan is not in this movie. He never was, and he never will be. It has been confirmed by Gareth Edwards himself that all the monsters aside from Godzilla are original and brand new because he wanted to bring something new to the table.
By continuing to support the false rumor that Rodan is in this film, I translate that as you being a troll. Nobody likes a troll ANTHONY.1432. Please don't try and argue or spread this false rumor any further.
It's been 100% confirmed by Gareth Edwards directly, as well as Legendary as a whole, that there are no Toho Kaiju in this film aside from Godzilla himself. Please do not continue to troll with this false rumor about Rodan. It's not funny, it doesn't help anyone, it starts arguments and unnecessarily heated debates, and it's entirely untrue.
Thank you.
Anthony.1432
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 12:30 PMOh yea Im sorry, I forgot to explain, me and IGN got together and decided to prank the world by releasing videos on their page. You guys are all so gullible, unless you wrote the movie stop telling me that you know for a fact that it's not true. In speculating based on evidence provided, and I'm not claiming it to be fact.
You people are taking the word of a directer who denies the claims because he's PROTECTING THE TWIST.
if you are going to tell me it's not true, you better have some proof you've either:
A. Seen the movie.
B. Wrote the movie.
If you don't meet any of the qualifications listed above, your the Troll.

AdminGodzillaMar-08-2014 12:41 PMGuys, this is schewing a little too close to a flamewar. Lets try not taking the information personally. If you disagree, explain why then move on. Flame baiting users or calling each other trolls ends here.
If anyone does it again they will be immediately reported and the topic will be closed. Play nice.
Anthony.1432
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 12:53 PMIm glad I got to stir up such a passionate debate though, atleast people care about it enough to want to waterboard me for presenting a theory.

I love you Rodan lover's who are in denial, Rodan isn't in the movie. It's ok to cry , just learn to let it go and understand there will be no Rodan. You keep putting out "facts" but it's the denial talking. Here's how to solve that problem
Step 1: Admitting
Step 2: Moving On
Let's all move on Rodan lovers and accept the fate of the movie.
Anthony.1432
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 1:57 PMI'm so happy the writing staff took the time out of the busy day to come here and tell us the truth. Thank you for enlightening us @junkerde, you must work for legendary right?
Dinozilla0439
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 2:16 PM*Sigh* Guys, when Gman commented on here I think he meant for everyone to stop arguing. Anthony, I really like Rodan- I love dinosaurs and he's really pterosaur-like, so he's definitely one of my most favorite Godzilla monsters. But a lot of us have heard everything Gareth has said, and he has pretty much confirmed there won't be ANY of the old monsters in this movie. Like you, it would thrill me, and I would love to see a Toho monster in it, but we have more evidence AGAINST it than PROVING it, or even calling it possible.
In the trailer breakdown video with Gareth, you can clearly tell by what he says about starting from scratch that he actually didn't WANT to put a Toho monster in the film. If he did, why not do it to begin with? Why even make a new monster? Yeah, the idea of designing a new monster AND including an old one is a cool idea, but I think like Junkerde is saying about it being the denial part of us talking, we just like the idea too much and are trying to prove it by putting things together that we're calling 'evidence' that isn't even evidence. Now I'll repeat that I really like Rodan just like you, and I would be happy to find out that I'm wrong, but from what we've all heard and seen so far it's just... too unlikely.
And last, there's no need to be so rude about it. If you believe Rodan will be in the movie that's up to you, but please everyone stop getting on each others case and try to get along. Everyone has a right to their own opinion, and shouldn't be slammed for stating what they believe.
Anthony.1432
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 2:46 PMPeople that don't believe Rodan is in this movie make me sick! (Louis CK)
Dinozilla0439
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 2:59 PMEveryone has a right to their own opinions. But let's all see the movie before we call our opinions 'facts'. And that goes to everyone, not just Anthony.
junkerde
MemberMothra LarvaeMar-08-2014 3:03 PM@Anthony
according to your logic then ,YOU must be working for legendary, because you absolutely KNOW Rodan is in this movie! GOD just shot down a beam of enlightment on Anthony, now we know the answer to the world's hidden meaning
Also thanks to you, this is why Godzilla-movies has a laughable reputation. Rodan? are you kidding me? THanks for making a fool of yourself so I didn't have to LOL! I laugh at your displeasure, take your unrequited love for Rodan elsewhere
