Hello daikaiju fan-boys and girls!

 

Most of you probably know about the topic of the kaiju form the Comicon 2012 trailer named "Talaghan" (if not, here's the link: http://www.godzilla-movies.com/community/forums/topic/29770).

Talaghan's demise is quite brutal. Godzilla ripped the kaiju's throat out with his deadly maw, and proceeded to fire upon the wound with his iconic Atomic Breath. What a way to go. huh? Unfortunately, this scene is said to be cut from the film. However, if this information is truthful, we have a glimpse at the new Godzilla's fighting style.

It sounds to me like this Goji is going to be a dirty fighter, as he should be. Goji is using his close range, and his far range attacks. Also, knowing how he defeated this Battra-inspired beast, Godzilla is probably very swift and smart.

It looks like Godzilla isn't going to preform any jump kicks or dances in this movie. Thank goodness!

*MY ORIGINAL THEORY FOR PHYSICAL FIGHTING*

I had a theory, that this new Godzilla, as big and imposing as he is, will move much like a serpent. He will be slow and lumbering side to side, not like his original waddle, more like a side to side serpent. When it comes time to fight, I feel like the physical portion will be more like strikes. When Godzilla approaches an enemy, such as a MUTO, he will brace for a striking position, and when time permits, he will strike hard and fast. He will lightly bite quite a bit and use his arms as grappling. There will not be any punching, but slashing is not out of the question. He may use his tail too, but not how he generally does. In the old TOHO films, he would often have to do a 360 to use his tail or he turned around and swiped his tail. In this film, I believe he will be able to swipe quickly and precisely from any postion (this new fighting advantage is also due to him being full CG). Outside of striking, I think this new Godzilla will stick to being slow and conservative. 

It would seem I was right...and I'm happy about that. This new Godzilla needs to be a ferocious beast that will kill any other kaiju without remorse. I'm still not sure how his atomic breath will work though...but I'm happy to hear he uses it strategically...going fo an open wound. This new Godzilla must be rather intelligant...

i agree with JMAC15.  There is NO WAY they will have him kicking/punching or doing anything ridiculous like that.  It will totally ruin the "Realistic" vibe Gareth is going for.  I think him lumbering side to side with quick claw slashes or bites are perfect.

My thing is that everyone in my opinion is taking the realistic thing a bit too seriously...like Godzilla throwing a punch will just shatter the boundaries of realism when in fact there already broken because there is a giant dinosaur running around...plus these insects (most of godzillas enemies are bugs)

yes, people seem to be taking the realism too seriously, the monster himself should not be realistic, it simply doesn't work

I agree .... but for some odd reason people say he won't have this or that because of the realism and it's sorta ridiculous to me

Im thinking scratching/bear slapping, tail whipping and a small dose off atomic breath.
