The Text you guys are looking at on the second image clearly looks like "The Textile" something. There's another word above it. It's just the same building with two signs on it.

I'm sorry. I couldn't resist after seeing Rhavin's pic.

Monster, with 4 legs.

A different perspective

Here's what I'm seeing...

[Lupinicus]

The more I watch the trailer and flip back and forth through these frames, the more I think that there is something there (previously thought it was all smoke). First off, I just want to say that they (cameraman, editor, whoever) set up this shot perfectly so that we don't get any kind of good image. When the camera pans to the space between buildings it unfocuses. These few frames are when most of the movement of the monster is occurring, but there's no way to make anything out. Then the camera focuses, and the only thing I think is very clear is at the very top of the frame (and which many others have pointed out). Could be horn, could be a tentacle, could be some other appendage. Everything below that is smoke and the fallen building, IMO.

I'm fairly certain that all the differing outlines people are seeing in these few frames was intentional (someone previously mentioned cloud-watching, very appropriate I think). The designers of this trailer wanted to give a tiny tidbit of an image and let us all go wild over it. I highly doubt anything conclusive could be drawn from this trailer besides the monster being very very very large... which, again, is probably the intention.

Drat... I wonder if there's a way I could have thumbnailed my first pics... oh well.

Opinions of what I'm seeing are:

1) The top of the head has two ear-flap-horn things going back... I know I've seen this kind of style somewhere before, maybe on some baby dragon or gremlin-ish monster, or some kind of alien... I can't think of it, but maybe someone can find a picture of what I'm describing.

2) I do NOT see a lower body in this picture... if you watch the clip, you can see that is CRUMBLING debris. That is why I pointed at it, just so people wouldn't be tracing (as people just did, and it always amazes me x_x) weird-ass shapes of stuff. The only moving thing we've seen is what would be the back of it's head. I don't see a shell, either.

3) I am quite positive that that's the back of it's head, because if that was anything else, the monster would be substantially bigger. The chunks taken out of the buildings on the official poster would definitely match up with the size of it, if that is its head.

@Mods: Can you help me make those images thumbnailed so people will want to click on them (instead of the ones with wacky outlines drawn all over them)

I definitely think the monster is in the trailer twice.

When the jet is flying through the sky, pause it. Now look into the road. See that explosion? Then look behind that.

[JFTeran]

yeah!! i think so too!!!

@Everything's Magic:
There is way too much smoke to begin trying to 'see' things there... Bad stuff happens when we try to look too close at things. (see: people getting carried away with slusho, seeing demons in hair, etc)
I also think it's there, hence the explosion and fighter-plane, but... I just don't think it's visible. At least, not to a point where we can make anything of it.

@Rhavin:
If you look at my original picture I posted, you can SEE pieces of the building falling slowly down... you can see it in the gif's in some other thread and also if you just pause the HD version and go back and forth with the time-bar over that general section... you can see the individual pieces of building, falling down, and smoke trailing them. I don't doubt that his lower half is behind all that, but I just don't know if it's worth getting anything wrong speculating whats visible of the lower half, when the upper half is right there.
