One of the most defining characteristics of Godzilla is the destruction he causes. To get the character right, you have to have him causing mass destruction. The Tristar Godzilla failed to have the monster go on a proper rampage, which is one of many reasons why that film failed to capture the Godzilla spirit. The good news is that there is more destruction in this trailer than in the entirety of the 1998 movie. The best shot that illustrates this is the view of a thoroughly demolished portion of Las Vegas, including the Replica of the Statue of Liberty. It looks like something just walked through and crushed everything in its path. Already the trailer is giving the viewer a sense of the scale of destruction. Get ready - this is just the beginning.
