Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures have done nothing officially to promote the new Godzilla film since The Godzilla Encounters viral site before the San Diego Comic-Con in July. This has left fans parched in a drought of information and burned by the mirage of unreliable rumors.
Well, when it rains, it pours. Today it was not only reported that the new Godzilla 2014 trailer would be released online at exactly 10 a.m.(Pacific Time)Tuesday Dec 10th, well before the expected theatrical release with The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug Dec. 13, but there was a new viral site launched, M.U.T.O.research.net.
The new viral site is somewhat reminiscent of the site they launched prior to Pacific Rim. We did lean something immediately, though. Months ago we learned through pre order toys, that Godzillas new monster foes are called Mutos. Some speculated this was a word meaning Change or short for Mutation. We know know this is the acronym for some secret organization. I'm guessing the "M" stands for Millitary, and the "O" stands for Organization or Operation. I don't know what the others are.
At the same time, other sites showed some cryptic images. The first ones are from a Chinese News site. Mtime.com. They posted two images of Chongqing sinkhole from the Chinese district of the same name. The hole is also known as the Xiaozhai Tiankeng, or heavenly pit. It's the largest and deepest sinkhole in the world, reaching depths of 662 meters. The pictures show millitary helicopters and some sort of Avatar-like mobile facility on the edge of the crater.
The nest is a photo from Total Film of the famous "Door to Hell" natural gas pit in middle-eastern country of Turkmenistan. In 1971, Soviet gas workers set it on fire believeing the gas would burn off in a few days, and it hasn't stopped since. In the photo, the pit seems to have been locked down by M.U.T.O. Why is M.U.T.O. interested in these pits? Did monsters emerge from them or did thy use something from the pits to make a monster?
More details to come.
