 		[SPEC] Random thought RE: "Monster"
I did use search function.
Ok I did use the search function [maybe not properly] and I really hope this isn't tagged with [STUPID] lol but I had a random thought regarding the monster; please hear me out before shooting me Razz

Now... We see the SoL's head has claw marks on it which evidently means whatever it is had to have been on the EXTERIOR of the Statue; but think about this.

If you go to the official movie website and look at the picture [Or any poster/promo photo for that matter] You'll see that the marks from where the head was 'ripped' from the statue's body seem to protrude (sp?) outwards as if pushed from inside... Also if you look at where the 'swim' trail is it leads from the statue not 'past' it if that make sense?

Okay by all means the monster could have just stopped @ Liberty, ripped off her head and then swam toward NYC; but why...? Why would it have just ripped off the head and then continued on... Surely it would have smashed the entire thing?

Possibility the monster crashed 'OUT OF' the SoL? Then swam toward the city?

[As I say... Just a random thought whilst looking @ the poster]

 		This has been talked about many times.

Look at the size of the entrance the monster makes into NYC, and then look at the hole in the SoL. Unless he grew after he came out of the SoL, no way.

 		Yeah very fair point, OliMango. Although I did think about this and well, isn't that a possibility; that it's growing? Hence why it's only now [Well, then in Jan 08] That it makes this break-out to NYC?

I mean if this whole Slusho! deal's correct and it's supposed to make you 'expand' with happiness or whatever; no?

Ok Embarassed sorry lol

Was there any need for rudeness?

If I need to justify myself, I'm a Film and Television studies student @ University and one of my main focuses is Science Fictions and the horror genre... And well; look @ all recent and classic monster movies IE: Godzilla, King Kong etc.

They sway through the city/cities bashing everything around them not caring whether it's partial or complete annihilation... Except the first thing, the introductory destructive point... It's always complete damage.

As I said it was just a thought and what you have quoted was evidently a question put to the other UF Members. Your blatantly rude response was uncalled for Smile

Strange, I thought it was a valid question. You're saying "surely it would do this", but the only way you could know that is if you know what the monster is like and how it thinks.

Don't be so sensitive.

No... You were nitpicking.

But to answer your first question; being a Film/TV Studies student particularly in the aforementioned subjects and giving the evidence to which I have regarding prior movies featuring monsters - Yes that would make me somewhat an "expert on monster psychology"

I just wanted that quoted in case you edited it later.

You were doing so well too...

Back on topic: I think within the timeframe the SoL's head starts coming down the street after the big explosion seen South of the party. So it [the monster] has probably went back out to the sea grabbed the head and then came back into the city.

Just guesswork really, it could have been holding onto the head for a while I suppose.
