Question:
Is that spray stuff coming out of Monster X's hand one of his attacks?

I don't like the red eyes for Godzilla.
Other than that.. it's beautiful.

It's good.
Could've been great if Godzilla's head didn't look deformed. In fact, I would've suggested to ditch the head entirely and just do a marvelous drawing of the King of the Monsters standing next to his kaiju brethren.
But yeah, Godzilla's head looks 'fat'. But besides that, I'm pleased with this new poster. Love Manda's look and I like how Gigan was drawn. Not bad, not bad at all.

The poster looks cool it looks like it genuinely came straight from the time period of the showa films and has a classic look to it. Manda! The Godzilla head looks almost like a hybrid of G85, G2k and GMK with the head shape and front view and something else added to it. Strange but ok. Also glad to see the awesome visors for the Xians!(By the way in that picture he looks like Dr. Octopus) What are those things behind him? And the giant egg looking thing,maybe giving GINO his credit in this movie? Monster X looks more dark and evil with the jagged rocky skull heads. Overall cool artwork.

No,. taking a long look at it, that;s just part of Atragon that connects with Monster X's hand to look a lot like a beam weapon.
The whole thing is great. not to beat a dead horse, but MANDA!!!

Is it just me, or does Manda look a lot like one of Heisi Ghidorah's heads?

Funny, I was thinking his head looked like a crocodile's...

I like the new poster. Very cool looking. I like the new Xian spaceship, which you can see off to the left, next to the head of the controler. And we now indeed know the Emmerson is scoring the film. Interesting.

Holy crap!
When I saw this poster, tears came to my eyes!
This is awesome! Never have I been this excited for a Godzilla film!
The poster screams out "Kitamura style" which, for a Godzilla film, is going to be kickass. For some reason, the poster reminds me of an old-school Star Wars movie poster!
Look at the monsters! They're... beautiful!!!!!!!!
Look at Manda! Look at them! How can anyone hate how this is turning out!!!
The Xian leader looks awesome and badass, as well as MX and Gigan!!!!
I told you guys the Xian's would be wearing visors afterall!
As for the complaints of Godzilla's head fatness, it simply looks that way because of the angle!
Wow! Wow! Wow!
WOOOOOOOO!!!

The poster looks pretty cool. A couple of things, like Godzilla's head, look a little off from the photos we have seen. But all in all, not too shabby.

I don't think that's the actual poster so much as it's the artwork for it on some kind of flyer. I think it looks awesome, it's something you can get more out of each time you look at it. Well, save for Kaiser Ghidorah, Minilla, and Zilla, all the monsters are there, it seems. I may be forgetting someone though. The Goten is hard to see behind everything but strecthes across the entire artwork, apparently drilling a hole through Monster X's chest, though that could just be how I'm looking at it.
The Xilians seem to do these really weird movements in the pictures I've seen, but whatever makes them seem alien, I guess. Also I think the blue looking guy is the UN chief guy, played by Akira Takarada. Looking at his face I would say he either joins forces with the Xilians ala Mafune, or, more likely, is put under mind control... remember he does dissapear then reappear with the Xilians at a later time. The blueish look is reminicent of Yog when Makoto Obata is taken control of by the space amoeba.
The two things I don't get are up in the upper left and right corners. Some kind of plane, perhaps a futuristic version of a fighter jet? And something that looks like an egg. Any ideas on that?
Oh and I just want to add, looking at the image I can tell you from the text, yes Keith Emerson is scoring, yes Kyle Cooper is doing the opening, and yes, Sum 41's song will appear in the film. Just to put an end to any doubts. I have to say, this is a really stunning poster. I mean, tell me, honestly, does that not look like the ultimate science fiction film?

I heard that Keith Emerson is on the poster listed for the composer and when I went to look I spotted thishttp://img21.exs.cx/img21/3729/Sum41onGFWposter.jpg I wonder why they're promoting the We're all to Blame song on the actual poster for the movie, it seems a little odd don't you think? But then this is a totally different thing than what we're used to and maybe it's for getting GFW more press and something to connect with it. Like for instance Bring me to Life by Evanescence,what's the first movie that comes to mind with that? Daredevil. There are tons of other examples, even the Puff daddy song is instantly associated with GINO (though the Godzilla sound effects kinda help with that).Anyway just something I noticed.

With the exception of GFW Goji's bulging, frog-like head, everything else looks fine. Especially Manda. Damn. Also, I like the Showa-like feel the poster has. Very good choice, imho. Although if there were one more thing I'd like to see changed in the poster, it's the humans at the center: I would've like to see Goji there. That aside, it's an excellent poster!
Peace,
Melkor

Hey, you're right. That's a bit odd. Looks pretty impressive though, more so than Monster X! Damn, that's a badarse Manda.
I mean, tell me, honestly, does that not look like the ultimate science fiction film?
No, not really.

I have no idea where you guys are standing on that, because my question was a double negative or something. In any case, Toho's site has another pic.

I was saying "no, it doesn't look like the ultimate sci-fi film" and Pryas is agreeing with one of us, but I'm not sure which. Accursed double-negatives!

I don't understand why some of you are acting all shocked on Manda's head looking like a Ghidorah's. Hasn't Manda's head always looked that way? You guys do know why Toho change the look of Manda for DAM, right? They thought it had too much of a resemblance to Ghidorah's heads.

Thgat looks awsome except some things look way better then what is in the movie, like monster X. I mean have u seen the costume on that thing? I like the goji head sure its way off but at least it looks like the banpresto figure.
