While many of us do not have the fondest memories of the last Godzilla movie released in the United States, the new Godzilla is looking more and more like one heck of a blockbuster.  Check out this trailer, released by Warner Bros. UK Trailers, below!

What do you think?  We’re pretty excited.  Why don’t you come celebrate this new trailer in our new Godzilla forum and discuss it with other Godzilla enthusiasts!

under TokuNation, TokuNation Site Updates

Nearly two years ago we launched TokuNation.com with two goals in mind – build a friendly and helpful community, and create a website that fans of tokusatsu can follow for the latest news on all their favorite shows and toys.  And for the last two years, we’ve been very proud and very humble of the friends, fans, and followers that we’ve made through our forums, our Facebook, and our @TokuNation Twitter account.  It has been our absolute pleasure to get to know every single one of you and to give all of you opportunities to win all the contests and giveaways that we do on a regular basis.  All of this, everything we do, is for you guys and because of you guys.

So for starters, THANK YOU!

So after two years we decided it was time for a face lift.  We wanted to upgrade our visuals while still keeping the ability for the community to interact directly with each news post, but also integrate social media in to things.  So here’s a quick run down of some of the major changes you’ll see right on the front page!

– Social media integration in to each and every news post (if you’re signed in to any of those social media sites and you click the button, you can “Share” the story through your account!)

– A complete search engine for every single news post, ever, through a number of options including Major Category (IE: Kamen Rider, Power Rangers, Super Sentai), Shows, Toy Line, Characters, and Companies.  Try it out – you can now look back through 2 years of history with just a couple clicks!

– Featured stories – self explanatory!

There’s still so much more to share with you on what has changed, what is new, and what is still to come!  To find out all the details, either click the title of the story, click here, or click on the ”Discuss on the TokuNation forums” link at the bottom right of this post!

Thank you for two years of support – we will continue to strive to meet your, as well as our own, expectations for many more years to come!

under Godzilla

You may recall that we ran a story about this footage a couple months back.[/URL] At the time Legendary Pictures was taking legal action against any and all sites known to run the footage so we opted not to and linked you elsewhere for it. Well today Legendary has officially allowed the release of this footage for viewing, most likely because the actual trailer for the film is due any day this week!

So if you missed this footage the first time and would like to finally have a chance to see it advance of the real trailer then head on over to Mtime,[/URL] a site that Legendary Pictures is conveniently linking to themselves.
