has avoided the 1990's Godzilla mistake of shooting all his monster shots in the rain at night. The kaiju attack on the Golden Gate Bridge at least looks like it's a daytime shot, albeit a gloomy day, but there's an awful lot of rainy, dark shots in the trailer.

I don't think there's the need to mask imperfections with contrast like in the old days, now its all mood. Plus, it's GDT! This should be a visual feast. This is the first time I've been excited about giant monsters since I was a kid!

I'm 58 and can remember the early Ray Harryhausen movies, and marvelling at them, thinking special effects can't get any better than that. If I had seen the trailer for this movie when I was 12 years old, I think my brain would have exploded. Can't wait.
My 13 year old son thinks I'm a little over the top.

MemberNoobApr-29-2013 4:05 PMLeggy- pleased to meet you! I remember the Harryhausen movies on Saturday afternoons, along with Godzilla and those weird Italian monster movies. I was a Harryhausen nut too, what was that last film he did in the 70's, the one with the six armed statue sword fight? Brilliant.
I do believe your son will change his tune well before exiting the theatre!
