The new year continues, and to keep the celebration going, here’s another new episode of The Flickcast. The hits just keep on coming!

On this week’s episode Chris and Joe continue their deep dive into the Marvel/Disney+ show WandaVision and discuss their personal theories about the characters, what’s happening on the show and where it’s all going. They also discuss Chris’ new favorite show Letterkenny, which Joe recommended to him (and you) during last week’s episode.

In addition, the boys talk about Godzilla vs Kong, monster movies, the early days of television, Zack Snyder’s Justice League, when we might finally see the latest James Bond movie and how nobody likes degens from upcountry. 

Picks are also back this week with Joe picking the new trailer for Godzilla vs. Kong and Chris picking the latest film from writer/director John Lee Hancock called The Little Things with Denzel Washington, Remi Malek and Jared Leto.

It’s yet another big show. Let’s keep 2021 going in the right direction. Thanks for listening!

And now, without further ado, here’s the first teaser for Gareth Edwards’ Godzilla. Gotta say, this one looks pretty cool. If he can do for Godzilla what he did with his debut film Monsters, this one may just be one to watch.

Check out the trailer after the break. Look for Godzilla to hit theaters next Summer.

We are happy to say we knew director Gareth Edwards before he was picked to direct Legendary’s reboot of Godzilla. But now that he’s a big time director, he doesn’t seem to have lost his sense of humor and still has time for the fans.

In fact, he took time out of what must be a very busy schedule to record a video teaser for Godzilla’s appearance at Comic-Con in San Diego this week. There’s also a new poster to commemorate the event as well.

Check out both after the break. We can’t wait to see what Edwards does with this classic monster. If you’ve seen his previous movie, aptly titled Monsters, you shouldn’t have any doubt his take on Godzilla will be very cool indeed.

We’ve been following director Gareth Edwards’ career since he premiered his film Monsters during SXSW in 2010. Back then our own Chris Ullrich gave it a good review and if you ask him, he knew even then Edwards was only at the beginning of his career and destined for great things.

Well, fast forward to today and during a panel at Comic-Con a surprise visit by Edwards also brought with it the first footage from his next sci-fi monster flick: Godzilla. We don’t have the footage to show you yet but until we do, you can check out the first poster for the movie right now.

As it’s a teaser poster, it’s pretty simple. Still, it helps to set the mood and from what we’ve heard about the footage from the film, what a mood it is. Can’t wait to check it out.

Have a look at the full poster after the break. Look for Godzilla to hit theaters next year.

As always, one of our favorite parts of any convention is the sights and NYCC was full of them this year so we had to share them with the Flickcast audience. The level of dedication by the men and women who attend the con every year is staggering.

Some are picture perfect renditions that rival movie quality costumes like the Anakin Skywalker we saw wandering the floor. Others come from careful collection of legitimate television costumes and props like the classic Power Rangers Green Ranger. Still others take their own imagination and run wild with custom Mandalorian battle armor for both human and giant chicken alike to life sized Castle Crashers.

One of the things this gallery sadly doesn’t do justice is give an idea on just how huge NYCC was this year. Though it is yet to overtake the surrounding neighborhood like SDCC does, the New York Comic Con feels every bit as big and as important as its west coast counterpart.

The entire Javitts Center was filled with every major comic company to movie studios and video game publishers in every corner. This year the Flickcast was only able to spend a day on the Con floor but if things keep looking up for NYCC, we may have to tackle this show the same way we do San Diego Comic Con or E3.

Take a look below to get just a glimpse of the many sights at this year’s convention. See you next year New York!

After doing the seemingly impossible and breathing life back into the Batman film franchise after Joel Schumacher had his nipple-loving mitts on it, David Goyer is setting his sights on another failed film franchise to make it cool once again.

It looks like Legendary Pictures has tagged Goyer to help them out of a bind and write the script for their upcoming Godzilla reboot. Here’s the scoop from Deadline.

David Goyer has worked with Thomas Tull’s Legendary Pictures on both Chris Nolan’s Batman trilogy and the new Superman reboot Man Of Steel. Now the in-demand writer will pen the screenplay, from a draft written by David Callaham, for Legendary Pictures’ new version of Godzilla. The project will fall under Legendary’s overall agreement with Warner Bros while Toho Company, which own the rights to the oversized reptile, will distribute the film in Japan.

The film is also set to be directed by Monsters director Gareth Edwards, who managed to make an epic monster adventure with a minimum production budget. Let’s hope that Goyer can help us forget Matthew Broderick, Godzilla eggs, and Puff Daddy’s Led Zeppelin cover.

If you’ve been doing this as long as I have you often see people get work they don’t seem to deserve based on their experience or track record of previous films. In fact, it often seems like people getting directing gigs in Hollywood really have no business directing traffic let alone a big budget studio feature.

But sometimes Hollywood makes the right decision and a person gets a job they are perfectly suited for and will no doubt handle with consummate skill. Case in point is the news today that Monsters writer/director Gareth Edwards has been chosen to take on a new Godzilla incarnation for Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros.

According to the report, the deal is about to close with Edwards directing the film and working with a writer to be named later who will re-write the original scrip by David Callaham. No word yet on what the new Godzilla will contain story-wise but you can be sure story and character will play a large part in the new film, that is if Edward’s previous work is any indication.

You may be able to tell that I’m a fan of Edwards film Monsters, having seen its premiere at SXSW last year and writing one of the first reviews. With the talent and skill he displayed in that film, I have no doubt Godzilla is in very capable hands. Needless to say I will be following this one very closely as it develops.

Welcome to this week’s On the Radar where we delve into all corners of the entertainment, tech and geek Internets for news, views and whatnot that may have escaped our regular coverage this week. Let is know if we missed something.

The Last Airbender may be another M. Night letdown, but at least it will have cool looking creatures.

Time to high five the 13 year old you, the lightsaber is finally real.

Andy Leipzig is a nerd like us. The difference is he uses it in some really cool art.

Guillermo Del Toro walked away from The Hobbit. Why? Because he totally digs vampires.

Talk about life after death, it seems that Conan’s upcoming stint on TBS may be better than his NBC days ever were.
