New Friday The 13th might be a period piece set in the 80s.

I'm okay with this if it's true (and as long as it's not found footage).

In the first “Domestic Godzilla” since the 2004 Godzilla Final Wars, Toho Company Ltd. will be producing an all-new Godzilla film to be released in 2016.

“The screenplay is currently in development and we plan to start shooting next summer. We cannot announce cast or staff selections at this time. And we’re still deliberating whether to bring Godzilla to life via CGI or man-in-suit,” said Taiji Ueda (producer of Trick: The Movie ~ Last Stage), who will oversee the new “Godzicon” group – an organization to discuss and decide a wide range of strategies for promoting Godzilla – as Project Leader.

“This resurrection will be the centerpiece for ’16, and this is the force of our words.”

They plan on making something bigger and better than Hollywood’s version.

“The passionate voices of the fans clamored for a resurrection (of the Japanese Godzilla). We will bring the monster back to Japan, with the same high-quality, by bringing together our collective know-how, which we’ve been striving for, so we can’t lose to Hollywood,” he said with confidence.

Feeling that they shouldn't be one upped by Hollywood, Toho is producing a new Godzilla movie of their own.
