Prometheus poster, by far. The ominous nature of it, the number of fan theories it sparked. I’ll never forget when the Prometheus poster first got released and everyone was like… “Wait what” hahaha, good times. I miss those days - when there was mystery in the posters and trailers.

Yeah, I may have to go for round 6.

I’m seeing minus one a third time. Also don’t go to the crazy seats they just distract you.

@Thoughts_Dreams

Alien: Resurrection had those.

@GMan - I didn't want to say it. Of course, it took Toho to get it right. I was hoping we could do something along those lines. I do like the MonsterVerse, but Minus One, another level, from everything entirely. Saw it again yesterday. Had to see it once more on a big screen.

KoldWarKid62,
It took awhile, but I feel like, in many aspects, Minus One was the movie that the 2012 trailer was trying to sell us.

Cloned aliens? I'm not sure how interesting I would find that.

Climate change is real, the first Alien movie had corporate conspiracy in it through Ash. I don't care about reactionary people complaining (screw the reactionary garbage), climate change is real and if they want to look the other way while disaster is close they can contribute to the disaster or do something about it. Do something about it for example, keep people aware of it through movies.

I'd have to agree. That trailer was actually scary and intense. It's too bad the movie we got didn't live up to what the trailer promised/inferred. I recently rewatched the 2012 Comic Con proof of concept teaser that Edwards did ahead of the movie and even though it's not an "official" trailer, it blows all the others away! THAT gives me goosebumps. I wish that movie had been made.

I have a feeling they are A.I. generated as well.

Looked them up, and I can't seem to find these renders anywhere.
Honestly, these look AI-generated to me, but I might be wrong.

:(  Warrior

KDM is a pretty reliable source, so I would definitely lean towards that being a possibility. I'm going to dig into this further and see what else I can find though. I would say the title of this topic suggests the opposite, however haha.

RIP :( 76 is too young. Interstitial Pneumonia is horrible.

Another look at Shimo spotted on Godzilla x Kong shirt graphics:

Ah yes - corrected the typo, originally I think the name was leaked as Shimu but merchandising confirms the spelling.

I just keep liking Reiwa More and More!! Ominous one was fire

mbikkyu

Thanks very much! I wrote this like a few years ago or something, glad you liked it.

Correction: Shim0 isn't a bad guy. Skar King is just controlling Shimo to help him kill Godzilla and Kong

I have another suggestion, if you have a YouTube make a playlist of different Xenomorph videos that you love to watch 

Godzilla 2014

Those last two paragraphs were so chilling they changed my view of the film and I made an account on this site just to express that I love this interpretation. 

to show you really love those 2 vote for them

MekaGyakushuGoji (aka, MegaroGoji Type-C) and GhidoGoji (Hokkaido ver.).

I hate this woke crap. Yeah Hawley knows what he is doing, he is murdering ALIEN

sorry I'm late but Thoughts_Dreams

Unfortunately the new Alien TV series is going to be very android/metahuman/cyborg orientated. Probably because the show runner is not confident in the creature itself 

G. H. (Gman)
I guess I'm not good at explaining my points very well what I am trying to say.
Oh whatever, I'll just stick to the Alien and Jurassic Park side of this website.

Staying on topic, I would say very early Showa would be my favorite, specifically in the first six. Apart from Godzilla Raids Again, all of the others were the first G movies I saw as a boy, so they've kinda stuck with me. Two are my favorites of all time.

As for Heisei, there are a couple that I really enjoy. I like most of the Millennium era, and for Reiwa, Minus One IMHO is one of the greatest G movies (possibly greatest) of all time.

The Monsterverse is fun. On the whole I’ve enjoyed them all. Always good to have the Big G any way we can get him.

Xenotaris,
Yes, but Godzilla isn't America's. It's Toho's, which is Japanese.

I also don't understand how generalizing America's supposed love (?) for categorizing things and using reverse appropriation to describe things like anime has any relevance to the initial topic. So with the conversation going off topic, I'll just leave it that this is the way Toho's labeled things for consumption. The end.

You would be a singing a different tune if the American markets just lump all of the japanese films into a single era but we (Americans) don't do that because we love categories. Sincerely, don't take that as me being sarcastic which I am not. We Americans love dividing stuff into categories.

Take the word Mecha or Anime. To the Japanese Mecha means everything mechanical and anime means everything animation. To an american, Mecha means pilotable giant robot and anime is for japanese animations.

Xenotaris,
I mean it's possible that's one criteria, but remember, Toho has listed films for specific marketing purposes excluding certain movies and others.

The Godzilla Anime Trilogy isn't Toho either and they were once excluded on a Godzilla: King of the Monsters poster featuring only live action movies. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if the Anime Trilogy is retroactively put in its own category in the future as the official website separates them into their own grouping.

It also just might look better from a marketing perspective to say that there are 4 Hollywood movies in the "Hollywood Era" instead of creating two distinct eras for TriStar and Legendary.

Maybe it's just because I don't care about the Monsterverse stuff, but frankly, I see no problem with it. There are plenty of eras with different continuities anyway, and keep in mind the Legendary Pictures releases are breaking up the release continuity of the Reiwa Series. It's not a big deal.

KoldWarKid62,
I agree. Screentime isn't exactly a factor. Although, I will admit, the movies with longer screentime I tend to find more exhausting to get through than others. Invasion of Astro-Monster is usually cited as my favorite Godzilla movie, but his time onscreen is used expertly and, frankly, the story and characters are engrossing enough that I don't notice his short appearance.

 But TriStar and Monsterverse are 1) not connected, before you start bringing up the millenium series, it was unconnected by design.

2) the long haitus between TriStar and its animated series vs Monsterverse and its continuity.

I think its because its not japanese, Toho didn;t want to bother and grouping the two seperately while America bends over backwards to align the japanese films to their official era families.

Thanks for taking the time to do that, GMan. That’s an exhaustive study! I remember this topic from several years ago.

For me, it’s never been how much time Godzilla is onscreen. I don’t care if it’s 5 minutes or twenty five minutes. However long it is, make it count, make it impactful. What is he doing when he’s onscreen? Does it scratch that “Godzilla itch” for you? Some have done it much better than others.

Xenotaris,
Likely because there's only one TriStar film and there's nowhere else to put it.

I wonder why Toho just lumps all the American Godzillas into one era? TriStar and Monsterverse are distinct enough from each other to be warrant their own Era.

12/11/2023:

The 6th weekend of Godzilla Minus One sees a solid hold in Japan. Though dropping under #2, it surpassed 4 Billion Yen with 4.15 Billion (~$28 Million). Its attendance is now at 2.70 Million, tied with Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah. Many still seem to believe it will finish with 5 Billion which should, estimate a higher attendance than The Return of Godzilla. It's well on its way to surpassing Shin Ultraman's final gross and attendance. (Toho, Eiga Ranking)

Here are comparisons to where other movies were at in their sixth weekend.

6th Weekend Comparisons:
Shin Godzilla - 6.02 Billion Yen/$58.4 Million/3.74M Attendance
Godzilla Minus One - 4.15 Billion Yen/$28.5 Million/2.70M Attendance
Shin Ultraman - 3.84 Billion Yen/$29.7 Million/2.57M Attendance
Godzilla 2014 - 2.99 Billion Yen/$29.3 Million/2.09M Attendance
Godzilla: King of the Monsters - 2.70 Billion Yen/$25.6 Million/1.91M Attendance
Godzilla vs. Kong - 1.81 Billion Yen/$16.5 Million/1.20M Attendance

In America, it has the smallest weekend drop of the year (28%), ac***ulating a total of $25.3 Million for a worldwide total of 7.8 Billion Yen (~$53.5 Million). (Box Office Mojo)

Charts Updated!

I'm more excited for this movie then the ALIEN tv series
