MemberMothra LarvaeNov-03-2013 7:18 AMSince today is godzilla's birthday, what do you guys think Warner Brothers and Legendary will do?
As myself and many others have said, they will do absolutely nothing. Early next year people...March....March....March...
@MIKETHEG7453 March? Seriously? They won't wait until next year. Beyond the six month mark with all these big movies like Thor and the Hobbit. Godzilla is a huge name and has famous actors like Bryan Cranston in it. Although advertising it sooner would've been better. Expect the trailer within the next month.
It's not optimism you were promoting, just wrong information. It doesn't take an industry expert to know most businesses work Mon-Fri and that includes the corporate film industry. Not to mention I've never heard of a specific trailer being released on a weekend.
That said, I agree we'll probably be getting a trailer before year's end. March is a bit of a stretch: Both [i]X-Men Day of Future Past[/i] and [i]Captain America: Winter Soldier[/i] have trailers out, so the time is clearly nearing.

March a bit of a stretch?! HA! If anything, we'll get a trailer before The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug.
Nothing. The most we can hope for is a trailer on the new hobbit movie, but wouldn't really hold my breath for that.
HA! some of you seem to think WB has respect for the Godzilla franchise, and are really pushing this film. WB did state on Friday that they were going to launch a huge publicity tour for the movie. EARLY NEXT YEAR! ...like I keep on saying . NEXT YEAR!
@MIKETHEG7453 Yeah, WB doesn't care for Godzilla. That's why they did the Godzilla Encounter event at Comic Con, that's why they hired a Godzilla fan to direct it, and that's why they're DOING a friggin' Godzilla movie. Yeah, WB despises Godzilla.
As far as I know, with the Hobbit out of the way, Godzilla will be their next biggest film. So advertising it at the Hobbit film will be a no-brainer. Of course their true marketing of the movie will start next year. That's a whole damn season to advertise the film. With the world famous name Godzilla has, it doesn't take long to inform people. In addition, "early next year" ranges anywhere from January to May 16th, with the Hobbit premiering in December that's not a lot of time to wait for their publicity tour.
