Godzilla!!!!!

There are rumors galore surrounding the making of the Tri-Star Godzilla! Let's examine a few of 'em. (My thanks go out to various sources of info, not the least to mention David Milner, Aaron J Smith, Barry S Goldberg, and Jim Cirronella.)

Casting is said to include
Matthew Broderick as a scientist,
Jennifer Anniston as one of the heroines,
Hank Azaria as the cameraman reporter, "Animal",
and Jean Reno.

The two masters of the cinema
who will be working on this movie
will be Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin, of ID4 fame.

Devlin has admitted "we are re-designing Godzilla
from head to toe." Hopefully, this will not mean that
the Big G will be four-legged.

At one point, Godzilla was rumored
to go through "stages",
like Hedorah or Biollante. It is said that Tri-Star's Godzilla
will be quite different than the original Toho creation.
Godzilla should be fiercer, more dinosaur like.
However, I heard an interesting, yet
disturbing rumor passed to me by David Milner:

A Philadelphia talk radio station had some
details on the upcoming Tri-Star Godzilla film.
In addition to cast information,
they revealed that Godzilla will have the hots for Jennifer Aniston's
character (simular to the King Kong /Fay Wray thing).
Also, it seems Godzilla will interact with the
human cast somewhat (something the Toho Godzilla
never did).

Thankfully, Dean Devlin himself has denied this as
ABSOLUTELY FALSE!!! =D Dean, I could kiss you!



Update: 12/3/97

As of December 3, 1997, I have received a copy of the script from a contributor who wishes to remain anonymous. While I will be reading and reviewing the script, I will not be making any of it available on my web site, nor will I be discussing any plot particulars. Before you go accusing me of being a "Tri-Star ass kisser" I would remind you that I have no way of knowing whether or not the script is authentic. If not, then I do not want to unknowingly mislead readers into thinking something is fact when it is not. If the script is in fact authentic, well, let's just say that I'd like to be able to continue eating, thank you.
My sincerest advice would be to go to Centropolis' Godzilla Page if you want any more real information. As for me, I cannot really be discussing it further. I know how much I hate having a movie totally spoiled for me before it even comes out. =)

For more information, go to Barry's Temple of Godzilla! Because he's wiser than me, dammit! ;-)
