Godzilla Teaser Trailer

We are getting another chance at making a Godzilla movie.  I didn’t mind the last one, but Godzilla has a specific look that was not represented, which upset a lot of fans.  This time it looks like Warner Bros. is trying to keep that specific image that everyone gets when you say Godzilla.  Thanks to the “Godzilla” channel on YouTube for providing this teaser trailer, it looks fairly decent and it is scheduled for a May 16, 2014 release date:
