Okay, right, but didn't that also happen in Shin Godzilla?

When they say "One Will Fall," I wonder if they're being coy and the one that will fall is neither of the title characters and instead one that has yet to be revealed, perhaps not until the actual movie's release.
Or one of the title characters is the first to fall but then gets right back up and the fight ends in a tie.
Or they'll change the tagline at the last minute to, "Whoever wins (and even if neither wins), we lose."

I agree for the most part with the last two posts.

Although, right after that, Godzilla saw Dr. Serizawa reach out to and touch him just before he sacrificed himself to juice Godzilla up with super nuclear radioactive power and turn him into Shin Godzilla.

Will Harrison Ford even be able to walk by production time? And btw, when he retires...absolutely no way in a billion dollars should they replace/remake/do anything to get a new actor playing Indy. You can say that many roles an actor has made them so iconic, but this is beyond that, it would be the most unthinkable sacrilege in the history of cinema to put a new actor in Indy's shoes. I wouldn't watch that if they gave me a house and a car. I hate to break it to you, but Harrison Ford can barely walk now. Have you seen him on talk shows? He really walks and moves like an old man. I think they've been using CGI to make him mobile in movies for the last 17 years. I also hate to break it you that three actors have already played Indy besides Harrison Ford -- River Phoenix, Sean Patrick Flannery, and the doddering old geezer who played the 90-something doddering old geezer Indy in The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (and was since edited out by George Lucas in the home video release of the series). I would take the house and the car, IF they paid the mortgage/down payment and monthly payments on both, OR paid for them both outright.

It just occurred to me.
Doesn't Jabba the Hut kind of look like Jackie Gleason?
And/or vice versa?

But, alas, no Pink Lady!
Maybe next time!

roar but they also bring back the classic theme and the climactic battle also features a fiery reference to Shin Godzilla! Go, go, Godzilla! Yes, the movie even has Blue Oyster Cult!

You should add a fourth ballot question:
Especially if it's bad!

As much as I hate to admit it, I'm with Vader on this one.

And speaking of listening, we also get to hear something right off the bat that we didn't hear in the 2014 kickoff, before we even see anything (except the Warner Brothers and Legendary logos, of course).
Yes, they definitely listened, and now we get to enjoy listening.

Yeah, I saw it over the weekend in 3D!
Awesome movie, the best American Godzilla movie hands down so far (yeah, I know, out of a whopping total of three, with the first unrelated one from 1998 being a total dog of a movie -- Dogzilla!). But still!
And I loved the specifically Japanese elements they brought back that were missing in the first proper American Godzilla movie, the 2014 precursor.
Next up -- IMAX!

Okay, I see, kind of like Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
Tedious but plausible and feasible.
Well, tedious in the case of BvS; hopefully GvK/KvG will play that out much better and without cringe-worthiness.

Works for me.
Should've been the same for Star Trek (I'm looking at you, Abramsverse) and should be the same for The X-Files and other similar franchises.
Franchise recasting only works with characters that existed in public before they were portrayed onscreen, i.e. superheroes, James Bond, etc.
