Earthtron is blue Godzilla 1984 after a diet with no spines and a horn. I'm telling ya'!....He's also Kelbeam's be'atch.



What this has to do with Godzilla 2026? I have no idea.

Or that, yet again, they couldn't get it right.

Maybe (insert speculation here).

Seems like a solid train of thought IMHO.

From Screen Rant:

[quote="Sandy Schaefer"]Warner Bros. is looking to transform another fantasy-adventure literary series into a lucrative film franchise with The Seventh Son, an adaptation of the first installment in author Joseph Delaney’s The Wardstone Chronicles (originally titled “The Spook’s Apprenticeâ€

MTV:

Max Borenstein explains his prequel graphic novel 'Godzilla: Awakening,' and where the movie's sequel might go.


THR:

Max Borenstein defends the decision not to show the film's giant star until well into the film, saying he took a page from the "Jaws" playbook: "That movie becomes incredibly suspenseful and perhaps it's the reason 'Jaws 2' becomes a lot less interesting."

I think he kind of misses the point there, the Jaws sequels didn't work because they showed their sharks more, they were just bad movies with none of the relatable or developed characters of the original. Godzilla is the same but different. Like any good movie you need an impressive story populated by interesting characters, but part of the reason you watch a giant monster movie is to see these forces of nature. It's not like Jaws or Alien where what you don't see is more scary or suspenseful, it's awe-inspiring because these beings exist in the first place. You can't hide a mountain, especially one made of flesh rampaging through a city or fighting another like it.
