The monster leaked quite a while ago. Just, nobody has figured out what it is.

I'll predict that ACTUAL monster pictures will be available during the week of January 7th.

I predict a leak of a detailed description, but I don't actually think any pictures that slip through will be intentional.

Do you know that it leaked a while ago? You just think no one has figured it out?

Well the first leak was the first trailer. Each trailer afterwards gave us more detailed depictions. Each of the websites uncovered have given us clues, such as all the references to "whales" at Slusho. We know it's original. We know it's massive. We know it has useful appendages, hint the throwing of the SOL head. We know it moves fast. We know it's not a lion. We know it's non-mechanical and is organic (unless we're being intentionally led off). We know it can travel in water. We know it can travel on land. We think it has legs. We think it has more than two. We think it may have tentacles. We think it may come and/or originate from the sea. We think it's eyes may be red. We think it's sudden appearance in some way relates with expanding people, and a mass city-wide biological calamity. We think it cannot be harmed by conventional means. We think it counters the idea of the classic Japanese monster. We are guaranteed that it is complicated.
We have a pretty good idea of what the monster is like. I think the material given to us was a leak.

I'm talking about pictures or videos of the monster, not useless clues.

None of the clues were useless. Pictures or videos of the entire monster will than be proof. Right now a leak is more info, not a definition. I don't think we'll get any pictures or videos from Paramount until the movie itself.

I'll second that. There's been a lot of seemingly oppressive statements by forum members on virtually every board saying that 'it's original', 'it's not a remake', etc.
I'll beg to differ, because JJ has his work cut out for him anyway with this monster. Whatever it is, I can GUARANTEE you that it will be easily comparable to a monster from a previous film of some kind, even if not Godzilla or from 20,000 fathoms, etc. JJ ain't that creative, especially if LOST is any example of his talents. It will be a remake or a re-hash, question is,,,which one? He'll be lucky to get away with a 'homage' to some former movie creature.

"Hash"
And of course, all movies take or copy elements from older movies. Especially those with monsters. Fortunately, JJ says it's not a remake, and it's not difficult to come up with an idea that is not a remake. It's hash or not.

Okay, it's an original re-hash.

Exactly. By your standards, the concept of a monster movie, no matter what, is a rehash. So yes, an original rehash.
