I guess that confirms the officialness of the synopsis from a few days ago

This also solidifies the fact that we really only have the Slusho 6 as far as the movie is concerned and that Jamie is only a major player in this promotion (if the lack of her presence in the trailer didn't do that already).

EDIT:
"...descends upon the city." Literally or figuratively?

That's what I figured, but the copy clobbers you over the head with everything else.

Sounds like a description of the movie written by a Paramount exec.

Why put that up there??? there was absolutely no need for that.

It's like a 30-40 word description. How can it be bad writing?

They just wanted to get a general synopsis up, not win a writing contest.

You guys saying it's ruining the movie for you have to lighten up. There are a lot of high-strung people around here. You're tellingm e the synopsis on the official site would change your mind about the movie?

It's pretty much what we all know already. I'm not gonna hammer Paramount for putting a quick summary up there. As someone mentioned, they weren't writing it for a constest. I guess its mainly for those who couldnt quite figure out what the trailer was exactly about. However, the one thing I do like in that synopsis is the description of how big it is...

Kinda goin slightly off topic here, but that one line got me wondering.

Do you guys think this monster will be bigger then Godzilla? From that one scene in the trailer, with the knocked over building, it sure looks like it is...

I just looked up how tall the Statue of Liberty is for a size comparison. From the ground to the torch is 305 feet. The estimates for how big Godzilla is stop around 300ft... if this monster can make claw marks THAT big on the SoL, the thing has to be at least... 400ft+?
