Darabont is talking the talk right now. I have high hopes for this film and if the script can deliver a Big G who is a true Force of Nature than it should be worth seeing. That kind of approach makes me think of Return of Godzilla/Godzilla 1985, not a bad film to emulate in addition to '54.

I like what he said about the Serizawa-Emiko-Ogata triangle and Serizawa's crisis. Hopefully the new film can incorporate strong human elements as well and avoid the "cliched, thinly disguised romance or bromance" that he refers to.

True. It also sounds like they are doing what they said that they are doing and paying respect to the character and what he stands for. Don't get me wrong but zilla had a good movie for a monster movie, but it did not show the character the respect it deserved. Hopefully they continue this path. I really want to see a true godzilla movie in theaters and it sounds like it's happening
