Great. The Harry Potter score is iconic.

Speaking of Kaiju, just got back from Pacific Rim at the cheap theatre, but I missed the first three minutes or so. Did those minutes explain why a jaeger needs two people to pilot it in the first place?

''Godzilla: Not As Cool As The Kaiju''

That's like saying Batman or Superman are not as Cool As The Superheroes IMHO

@JGAR exactly. "godzilla: not as cool as the kaiju" is such a completely moronic comment.

As long as the Godzilla theme is done justice then I have no problem with this guy.

Definitely my most anticipated film of 2014!

Man, I'm really feeling it for this movie. And now with Desplat, it will have YET ANOTHER THING going for it: ridiculously re-listenable music. I wish I remembered how to insert images, just so I could insert THIS:

This one's a winner, buds. Mark my words. Godzilla will own 2014.

They better add Blue Oyster Cult's "Godzilla" song in order for this to be a true Godzilla movie.
