A remake of “Godzilla” took in an estimated $93.2 million in tickets at North America
 

Wow! That's over half of the net cost of the film, estimated to be $160 million dollars, in one day.

I bet it's due to all of the bad weather and people wanting to get out of the house for a change.

I will have to elbow my way in to see this one: http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/20...ype=blogs&_r=0

I have to wait until it hit the DVD-market or my Streaming service

Going to see it tomorrow!

I saw the original yesterday. Can't wait for the new one :D

Which "original"? The one with or without Raymond Burr? :O:

Without :)

Saw it Friday night ,all I can say is "Wow":up:
I wont spoil it BUT it's more a Toho Godzilla movie than a hollywood one - if you enjoy the Toho one's then you should like this one,(Directors Gareth Edwards who did "Monsters" and you can see some of that in it as well)

I remember watching the different movies as a kid in the 60's. They played them in the small downtown theatre. My son saw the recent one...twice. He said it was good, but he's always been into Godzilla.

Go Go to the bank Godzilla.:O:

Perhaps the next King Kong will be behind him in the queue.

And now in (bad google) japonese: Ginkō Gojira e gōgō!

He'll have to get in line behind the pending remakes of Jaws, Poltergeist, The Twilight Zone, Ben-Hur, The Crow, Wargames, Commando, and The Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Life as film historian is going to be seriously confusing in the next few decades. :shifty: Are you discussing the remake...or the remake of the remake of the remake?

Hollywood be circling the drain. There are millions of books out there that haven't been adapted for the silver screen yet. So why do they keep rehashing previous titles ad nauseum?
Ars Gratia Artis perhaps?:hmmm:

Money I suspect.

So far, one of my friends made the best commentary on this movie imo...
