Abrams.<BR/><BR/>But you make a good point on how he has become larger than life and how his name suggests its his project when really it's written by Drew Goddard and directed by Matt Reeves. It's much like when Spielberg went on his Executive Producer frenzy and everyone thought it was a Spielberg picture when really it wasn't. <BR/><BR/>I like that this movie is going to come out the 18th of January. That doesn't suggest that it won't be big or that the studios aren't planning on it being big. It's interesting that the traditional schedule is getting mixed up a bit. But I agree with you that it's not going to be Godzilla. Something like it, but not Godzilla.PIPERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13054305230216613759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-907928872183762741.post-40369568593830123372007-07-20T19:32:00.000-07:002007-07-20T19:32:00.000-07:00Sorry about the confusion.

It just seems like the notion of what <I>his</I> ideas are or how it fits into <I>his</I> body of work, and I'm not entirely sure that's the best way to approach the mystery.<BR/><BR/>I can't promise anything with the Godzilla property. What I know is TriStar made the '98 <I>Godzilla</I>. TriStar is now owned by Sony. I've heard nothing of a change in hands, nor has anyone else I've seen speculate on this, and it seems unlikely that Sony would have allowed one to happen.<BR/><BR/>The movie is <I>definitely</I> encouraging us to take is a giant monster feature of that style. I'm just not sure if that's a red herring of some kind.
