First post yus!!! Hi all!!!

About the baby thing. I actually think that Abrams wanted the monster to actually be a baby, and it had a mom too if I am not mistaken(he said anyway). And for whatever reason it got separated and wound up on the surface. It probably freaked out and stepped on someone causing someone else to shoot it and the monster just got pissed and went from their, following a continuous chain of getting pissed and shot at. Might as well eat some people since they are trying to bring you down. Its age has nothing to do with whether or not it is a baby or adult, the only factor that does is genetics and species really.

Supposedly this is a leaked picture of one of the "toys" of the monster. A bust, not the one Hasboro has. Hasboro, on the site, says NOTHING about suckers, but it does say that the pictures are coming soon Very Happy Yus!!!
Does anyone know if the picture is the monster or if not what it is? Its neat Very Happy


And about the ending, the monster was HUGE, its FOOT was noticably bigger than a TANK. It stands over Hud and its foot doesn't even appear to be as big as his whole body. So maybee the thing that killed Hud wasn't the big baddie that was tearing the whole city up, but a baby one that resulted from one of the victims of the parasites being bitten, like in Aliens?



And another thing about Abrams talking about the monster being Scared, very disorientated, and bewildered. I like that he gave it a actual personality instead of making it a mindless killing machine that has no motive and can only do one thing, rampage and kill everything it sees. Instead its killing everything because everything(to it IMO) is attacking it. And if you were that big with no morales, wouldn't you tear some buildings up to? Cmon, it would be fun Very Happy


In the movie you never even get a good shot of the monster, so noone really knows what it actually looks like to any detail, but we get the idea eh? Very Happy

And finally, what does MGP stand for?

MGP stands for My God more Pictures...

That is not a picture of the monster, that pic has been around since Jesus walked the earth.

Lol Mr. Grumpy Pants, that's classic XD

Lol that model still owns though, would be neat if that is what the monster looks like. I hope Abrams made something that had similar characteristics to the Japanese godzilla, mortal, killable, motivated, and one bad ass mother fucker. I hope it isn't a shapeshifter though. I did notice that every shot of the monster had it looking different, but it was always totally surrounded by debris, dust, bullets, explosions, and a whole butt-ton of awesomeness Very Happy No good shots of it in the whole movie.

ok guys, i just noticed something

I watched a bootlegged clip of the ENTIRE scene were HUD is eaten, and I watched this over and over... finally it caught my eye.

You can see the bottom of one of the hanging things STRETCH. I officially think they are closer to huge, pipe-like Elephant trunks than anything else.

I really doubt that Paramount would turn over material to Hasbro, and let them 'interpret' whatever they think the monsters features are.

I'll bet that we are gonna be surprised when we finally see this 'terrible thing'.....people-suckers and all......

What I meant by not "Good" shots was that you never get to see the monster as a whole enough to put it together acurately, you see its legs alot. Its head once officially for a second, its back, and so forth. All of the shots are to dark to see every detail of the beast.

Now that MGP is a big star, he prefers M-Grumpy as this is a better indication of "where he is now."

I still adhere to the idea that the 'trunks' on the bottom are flippers, or some sort of swimming apparatuses... apparati? Whatever.... oh wait, it is apparatuses.

Anyways, the idea that the monster would have two mouths just strikes me as ridiculous. Call me unimaginative, but where the monster is supposed to look at least fairly realistic (albeit freaky and HUEG), it doesn't make sense for it to have a feature that no other creature on the face of the planet possesses. (Granted, I'm not a biologist, so feel free to correct me. I think I can narrow it down to 'no vertebrates', though) If its flipper-limbs were little trunk-manipulators that could convey people to its mouth, that would make a little more sense, and I could buy that.

As for the sequence of posted pictures in this thread, I still don't buy that the thing it's 'holding' is a person. Yes, the perspective would change things, but think of the size of MGP's head, then think of how big that arm would have to be, and how big the person its holding is. Maybe if he was lifting a car or a tank...Still, it doesn't add up yet. The arms would have to be TINY in order for that to be a person, and they just don't look small enough. I think it's more like that some sort of claw has folded out of the flipper, since its main limbs seem to kinda collapse in on themselves when it moves around. Just my theories, though.

::EDIT:: Also, there's no way this: http://www.cloverfield-movie.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/cheese11808wf3.jpg could be the toy. It looks nothing like MGP, not even slightly.
