Godzilla 2014 Trilogy??

Welcome to the forums.

More or less this has been discussed plenty, but it all comes down to how well the first film does at the boxoffice. It's quite simple: If this movie makes a great a deal of money, chances are we'll see a sequel, if it doesn't... well, I recommend you enjoy what we have.

Even Edwards has said, regarding a sequel, it all comes down to people liking this movie. I.E. the boxoffice. In the meantime I recommend cherishing and looking forward to everything this movie has to offer-- in case we don't see a sequel.

I hope there is a trilogy. I would like to see him fight King Ghidorah and Spacegodzilla again. And Mothra. And Mechagodzilla (Kiryu to be more specific). And Destoroyah. And the rest of them.

Gareth said in an interview that when making this they were thinking of a stand alone film.

So while it it possible for sequels, this film will apparently have a story that can be considered wrapped up without any sequels

^Which I think is how most movies should be. If a film is to have a sequel get creative people to write one that stands on its own as well. No need to rely on purposfully unresolved storythreads from a previous outing. That's too easy. And gimicky.

Not to mention if this movie doesn't get a sequel we won't be left hanging due to unresolved storyline. Everything will have been wrapped up without a fuss.

I'm hoping they don't stop at a sequel.

Trilogies have been done to death over recent years, and if they're going to continue then they either have to stop at one, or go all the way and make it a full series going above and beyond 6-8 movies total. It's Godzilla, afterall. There should be plenty of ideas and possibilities to go around to keep it going that long and then some. I love Toho, but some of their ideas in their Godzilla series were crap. Still they were able to turn them into an integral part of a classic series.

So yeah, Legendary either has to stop at one, or go all the way. No trilogies. That's a lazy man's path nowadays, and I know Legendary has more to offer than that.

Interesting theory regarding trilogies being lazy mans paths, I must admit a lot of trilogies have proved to be crapola or pure money making milking machines, Im no fan of these btw but just take harry potter and twilight as examples, stretching material where its not needed, all this part 1 and 2 crap after a trilogy come on really !

I mentioned trilogy as I am certain that there is definately enough ideas/material for making three godzilla encounters as a minimum and yes im sure Legendary/Gareth would rather go for quality over quantity. I sure hope this smashes the box office and Mr Edwards gets the green light for future releases one thing we can be sure of already, that it's going to stomp on the 1998 movie no question after seeing the trailer footage already.

Aw Yes !
