"I don't want to give away the title yet, because I have to make sure I own it 100%, but it's going to be something that is really fun with lots of mass destruction," he said. "I wanted to do something along the lines of Transformers or Cloverfield that was a little more science fiction-based, and with lots of chaos and mass destruction."
"I don't want to say what [the monster is] yet," Roth added. "Once it gets set up, I will let everyone know. It is not aliens or robots or a virus - it's a little more grounded. But when people hear it they are going to be like 'That is going to be insane!'."

Roth also revealed plans to make a full-length film based off Thanksgiving, the trailer he directed that appeared between films during Grindhouse.
"The plan is this: I want to do a huge budget movie, but tack on three weeks to the end of it and shoot Thanksgiving," he revealed. "I want to do an $80 million dollar movie, and then schedule three weeks at the end to quickly shoot a $5 million dollar movie."

To J.A: Gigan, Megalon, Space Godzilla, King Ghidorah, that thing from Godzilla 2000...
The only monster I could see getting his own, updated, big screen film out of those is King Ghidorah, but I doubt that's what he's talking about. A Ghidorah movie would be cool, though

Hmmm any one guess who the monster is yet?
Its gotta be a remake or something from source material, because he wants to make sure he opwns it 100%
Maybe one of the monsters that fought Godzilla through the Japanese Godzilla movies, would be pretty awesome.
Did he fight any monsters that were Sci-fi based, King Ghidorah etc etc.
So wait is Roth saying he wants to film 2 films during the filming schedule of Thanksgiving.
