Original 'Godzilla' Star Akira Takarada to Appear in Reboot
It has become something of a tradition in the world of Hollywood movie rebooting to feature little winks to the original versions by way of short central actor cameos. For some reason or another, the appearance of an older but familiar face within a franchise does tend give a project some credibility or at least a twinge of self-awareness. Thanks to this new set photo from the Vancouver shoot for "Godzilla," we can now know that director Gareth Edwards' upcoming "Godzilla" remake is following suit by including the original film's actor Akira Takarada.

Chucky Vs. Godzilla: Tale of the Tape
In this corner, standing two and a half feet tall and weighing in at 18 pounds, the challenger: Chucky, the doll of pure evil! And in the other corner, standing 25 stories high with a weight of 49 tons, the J.J. Abrams' secret menace from outer space, Clover!
Okay, sure, on paper it looks like a mismatch. But just how well do your favorite movie monsters really stack up against each other? That's the question posed — and then expertly answered — by this cool infographic, which compares the heights of some of the most sinister beasts ever to grace the big screen.

10 Things We Need To See at Comic-Con
Warner Bros.
I've got a box of Clif Bars, a toothbrush and some unread issues of the "New 52." I'm ready for the lines, odors and sunstroke of San Diego Comic-Con.
This will be my sixth visit, so in Con years that makes it... I dunno, my hundreth. All I know is that, every year, I swear it will be my last, then I return. It's like that scene in "Black Hawk Down" when Eric Bana, exhausted from the fight, runs back into enemy territory to continue rescue operations. Only, you know, a little more heroic.
There are dozens of movies (and shows and comics and web series) that'll be pitched at SDCC. Here are the ten I'm most excited about. Get More »

'Monsters' Director Gareth Edwards To Bring Back 'Godzilla'
Sony
Appropriately enough, the director of "Monsters" is taking on the King of the Monsters.
Gareth Edwards, the British boy wonder who brought us last year's low-budget (and strangely moving) alien invasion flick, has been chosen as the man to resurrect the big lizard and commence with the stomping of some major city, according to Heat Vision.
Legendary Pictures picked up the rights to "Godzilla" from Japan's Toho Co. last March and has been looking for just the right director to call the shots on all of the roaring, knocking over buildings and smushing of puny humans. "Monsters" was a calling card for such a gig if there ever was one. Get More »
