Thanks to Biojex for posting the link in the Legendary thread.
Toho Makes 1st Japanese Godzilla Film in 12 Years - News - Anime News Network
This is great news on many levels. For one, it shows the success of the 2014 film from Legendary, which I personally really enjoy and is a favorite in the franchise for me.
It also shows that there is still a solid following in Japan, where it had almost seemed to die out. Fitting that 30 years after the original, a reboot film renewed life in the series and now 60 years later, it's done so again.
Godzilla forever!
Will be very curious to see what direction they go in for his design, even though there's mixed feelings about Legendary's Godzilla, it is the first time an American design has been viewed as a Godzilla and been popular as such, so it may have an affect on them, where after '98, the studio was just looking to restore Godzilla's good name.
