To quote Fiore Mastracci[author of the article in question] in response to questioning:

"Look no further than my earlier posts on the official OUTTAKES WITH FIORE Facebook page. Back in March of 2010, Toho announced it would sells rights for another American Godzilla. Within the same week, they announced production had started on their own new version and that it would be released in December of 2012. This report was verified by my sources within Toho.
Admittedly, there was speculation that Toho made the announcement as a means of pressuring both Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures to ensure a true Godzilla translation, so as to avoid the conflicts and confrontations that resulted over the Emmerick and Devlin production.
When Godzilla fans heard the Big Guy was coming out of retirement two years earlier, the buzz was overwhelming. Some think Toho's hand is forced and they must finish their project. Personally, I think the new American version will hold off the Japanese version. Toho will make money on the American release and buy themselves more time, so that the decade forced retirement will see fruition.
Original plans by Toho were to release the new first Godzilla movie in March of 2014, on the 60th Anniversary of the original. The American version could serve as a decent gauge for that plan."

I dunno but I couldn't find anything about 'Godzilla' in March 2010 on the FaceBook page but then again I didn't put much time into it:

Quoted from me on Facebook after reading that idiotic article:
Is there an actual technical term yet for misinformation spread via internet? For instance someone posts on a blog some rumor they heard that is utter nonsense, but because it's online it must be true so other bloggers pick up on it and then news organizations start running articles about it?
"viral misinformation"?
"virtual douchebagis...m"?
"web of lies"?
"hyperbolechondriacs"?

I guess in this instance it works in reverse as some knucklehead at a newspaper with no idea what he's talking about is going to get some hyperbolechondriac bloggers all fired up for a week or two.

^It does in the first article about him being the director;

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/blogs/ ... +Movies%29

"Edwards will now work with a new yet-to-hired writer on the script. (David Callaham was the original writer.)"...........

..........."It also landed him work with Timur Bekmambetov on an epic sci-fi project that he is writing as a directing vehicle." :wink:

Just to put an official end to Fiore Mastracci's claims, here's what Shozo Watanabe of Toho wrote to me today...

"Toho does not have a plan to produce or release its own Godzilla movie at present."
