Okay, let's look at it this way - if you saw a giant lizard thing that looks like it belongs in a Macy's parade or a horror convention, and then you saw it throwing oil tankers and statue heads and stuff, wouldn't your first exclamation be "Holy crap, it's ALIVE!?!", followed closely by "RUN!!"? I have a feeling "it's alive" is just a base human reaction - you know, prone to stating the obvious as we all are.

also for the general public whom may have only seen the two trailers it could seem like some sort of terrorist type attack rather than a monster attack

Wouldn't surprise me if Slusho was in NYC that day celebrating the product's arrival in America. If we're going with the statue idea, then I'd be willing to bet they bring along some sort of statue with them as part of the presentation which could be why Rob has this guilty look on his face in the first trailer. Naturally he'd be at the presentation since he's about to work for them, right? But because the idea of a statue coming to life seems incredibly corny and disappointing to me, the swerve there would be that the statue wasn't a statue at all. Maybe it's not even introduced as such. Maybe they've displayed their mysterious "deep sea ingredients" and a batch of them become contaminated, which would explain the monster, the smaller monsters (if there are any; don't hold your breath), etc.

Going with that theory, it wouldn't surprise me if the mysterious "We're coming!" page on Slusho.jp suddenly announces plans for the presentation in NYC on 1/18/08.

What if it's not that it's amazing that the monster is alive, but that the monster is still alive?

Imagine this: Monster shows up, army knows so they're waiting, they blow him with a huge weapon causing the explotion. And out of the fire the thing comes walking and punches the SOL. People could say "It's alive!! even after they blow it!"

Or maybe after the explotion the monster seemed dead. It stopped and fell. Then it got up again, undead style. "It's alive!"

It's alive? Maybe the Flavor Bots, or an incarnation of them?
