Man, the marketing for this movie has been killer. THAT is one helluva poster. I need it.
Anyone else think the hype on this is surprisingly low? Definitely nowhere near what Godzilla enjoyed in 2014. I really hope this one doesn't underperform (I need the MonsterVerse to be a success!) but sandwiching this between Logan and Beauty & the Beast seems like it wasn't a great move. B&B is a multi-quadrant film that will suck all the air out of the B.O.

Your questions are exactly what I think will prevent this one from breaking out. The marketing has been great - if you're a fan. For JSP, they have no idea where this film falls in line, and even worse may be confusing it as yet another remake of the old story.

I see that some of my local Arclight Cinemas will be screening this in 70mm. The Hollywood and Sherman Oaks locations, to be exact.
Was this even shot in 70mm?

After the first few trailers I was beginning to wonder if Brie's character was mute.
