As some of you might already know and
seen, the upcoming Godzilla reboot will not only feature the titular and iconic
kaiju but also others. In the trailers we get to see parts and pieces of the
other monsters but nothing that shows us how they are. Well that’s not entirely
true, as yesterday during the screening of the original 1954 Toho classic
version of Godzilla at SXSW, director Gareth Edwards treated those attending to
a sneak preview of the new Godzilla, which revealed the new kaiju in all its glory.
According to STYD, the new kaiju,
“It’s a multi-limbed creature with what look like wings on its back (that would
explain the mystery shape we saw cutting through the clouds in the official
trailer). This beast is wreaking havoc at the airport that sets off a
domino-like chain of explosions which take out two airplanes waiting at their
gate. From inside the airport, travelers panic, watching the mayhem through the
floor-to-ceiling windows.”
The site also provided a new
description of Godzilla.
“A giant foot comes into frame.
It looks like a damn tank. But so much bigger than a tank. We’re now back on
the tarmac and this second creature looks up at its foe… and in an epic “hero
shot,” the camera cuts to Godzilla’s legs and tilts up, offering us the best
look at the famous monster yet. You’ve seen him by this point in photos and in
fleeting trailer shots, but this footage finally does justice: He looks stocky.
He looks like brawler, ready to throw down. And with a mighty Godzilla roar,
the footage slams to black.”
STYD also adds that the scene
shown had the finished music, which comes from Alexander Desplat and that it
sounded great.
From the description that STYD
offers of not only the new unnamed kaiju, Godzilla and the full scene, Edwards’
seems to have hit the bullseye.
