Not trying to be a negative Nancy, but I hope he is using that description loosely. Cloverfield already did a "realistic" monster movie approach.
Do you want Godzilla to sing and dance? I think that the inclusion of atomic breath in his description already indicates that the fantasy elements of the franchise are being kept very much alive.

Thats not what Thomas Tull is saying either. Basically what he is saying is if Godzilla all of the sudden appeared what would happen in the world? What would be the consequences of it? Would he destroy us or would he defend us from other threats? Hes pretty much talking about how to bring Godzilla into this modern generation.

Hell no! I want see the titular character in his full glory, not just few body parts through shaky cam.

So I thought about what Edwards could possibly have to say regarding this new Godzilla movie and would expect either of the following statements:

Edwards
1."I'm not allowed to give away too much, but I can give everyone a heads up on something big to come within the next couple of months."

2."Well so far we have a script and are currently working on casting auditions. We are just about set to begin filming within the next few months."

3."I just finished watching the entire 29 Godzilla films. My favorite one is the American version."

The 3rd statement is something to worry about.

Well Gareth Edwards will be at Kapow and rumor has it there will be Godzilla news. I'll be posting it over at Unleash the Fanboy since a colleague will be there giving me any scoop on G.

This seems like wishful thinking. I doubt this will be announced any time soon. It'd be nice, if a bit out of left field considering we haven't gotten anything this major on the film recently.

I'd be content with this kind of response, because then we'd have a heads up to get excited about.

The director's panel Gareth Edwards will participate in begins at 7:00 PM London time, which is in about 20 minutes, so if we get any information, it should be in the next couple of hours.

Don't they say something along these lines every few months though?
Don't try to be something else. Don't try to be less. Great things are going to happen in your life. Great things. And with that will come great responsibility.

I hope we hear something from the guy, because I am starting to think this project is going to die. Oh, I expect LP to make a Godzilla film, but it won't be from this team of players.

sonuva bitch! All this time and we get the same basic info from edwards. It seems like he himself doesn't know exactly what LP intends to do with Godzilla. Well Im going to do myself the favor of just forgetting that LP has ever mentioned anything about this film. I mean a title for the film is not even established amongst the fandom. 'Yeah I cant wait for Godzilla 201X'.
