[TROUT] possible connection between movies just have to look back to my knowledge most agree that the monster is a reptile like but no one knows the details to it so i went back over 50 years to find a movie called the beast of the 20000 fathoms just one of many movies ive seen to search into
i beleive there is a connection to that movie and this one heres the summary http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0045546/plotsummary
the thing that intriges me is that a virus/dieases is spreading through new york when the monster starts the chaos oddly enough a similar situation is going on in the beast of the 20000 fathoms
the speech he did in the first sct fi convention after the trailer he said he wanted "our monster" didnt mean it had to be a completely new one im just saying that he could have taking this movie and put it in present time with some changes
and the famous line ITS ALIVE is also the one in this b movie just a coicidence
Edit - Tagged - remember the link if you call trout, referring to the original post is the most important bit - MikeyJ

Uhh... hasn't this been brought up like a thousand times?
There are threads dedicated to monster debates... and I know for sure I saw at least 2 with the Beast and 20,000 leagues under the sea mentioned.

It has been discussed at length the trailers are similar also(with the exception you see see the beast through out)
JJ has said that he loved this movie(one of the first major monster movies in america) so I'm sure there will be similar elements but not a remake by any means

Not only has it been discussed at length but pictures of the original poster for 20000 Fathoms have been debated ad nauseum.

[TROUT] Thanks SuperSquirrel for posting the links, but please remember to make your post's subject [TROUT] and add our friend the trout emoticon to your post. This makes it far easier for the mods to find and label - and it makes it fun.
