Yes, my sense of humor is dark and obtuse.

Godbless that name, but i'll be honest- I never really grew attached to it- MGP. I dunno. I mean, it just doesn't seem like a name I would want to give 'our monster.' lol, I know this is dumb but the way I see it is- I want Toho and Japan as a whole to look at our 'Big Bad' and say, "Damn, Godzilla's gonna have a hellova time taking him on." And to have Mr. Grumpy Pantz is like calling a mean dog "Mr. Puffyface" and dressing him in some ridiculous outfit that people feel the need to put their animals in, Good God people don't embarrass yourself and your pets by putting them in those horrible outfits. Have some respect... Sorry, i'm that's a completely different issue/"Pet"-peeve if you will.

It will be interesting to see what the public finally accepts for it's name. Probably Cloverfield or The Cloverfield Monster. I for one love Mr. Grumpypants... I can just see someone's mom yelling "Well... Who's the Mr. Grumpypants this morning, throwing the Statue of Liberty's head across town." And I wonder if JJ would get a slight cringe if the "insane and intense" monster he brought to life get's referred to in such a way Smile

Ultimately I think the public will pic something else.

If MGP does stick, it'll prob. only be within the players of the ARG.

If a lion gets loose from the Bronx Zoo and kills 3 people in Central Park, is it a monster? No, it's just a wild animal obeying its instincts in an unfamiliar environment.

The original poster had a very good point. How do we know that this creature isn't just following its instincts?

Malicious intent is not necessary to destroy stuff, he might just be pissed off and/or scared so he lashes out like any animal would.
