Gorath?

[jkrouskop]

I've been away for a while, wo this has probably already been discussed, but...

Didn't we hear not long ago that the asteroid Gorath figures into the GFW plot somehow? I'm sure I read this on the net somewhere. Can anyone here officially confirm or deny this rumor?

If it does, that would make GFW the 40th film to feature Godzilla or be connected directly to the G series, by virtue of the inclusion of a character-monster-major plot element. 28 Godzilla films, plus RODAN, VARAN, THE MYSTERIANS, MOTHRA, ATRAGON, FRANKENSTEIN CONQUERS THE WORLD, WAR OF THE GARGANTUAS, GORATH, YOG and REBIRTH OF MOTHRA 1-3. By all means, let me know if I'm forgetting something!
