[TROUT]Speculation Disproved of Monster Concept
UPDATE

Hey, I've been on and off through some of the forums and recently got booted from another forum for some really ignorant reasons (long story). Anyway, I tried searching for the topic and couldn't find anything to what I'd like to share so here it is.

Another guy in the forum I was originally on came up with a very convincing idea that the Concept art for the Monster that's been going around for at least two months could very well have been a "controlled" leak by Paramount to be passed through the web and forums to basically test the response of appeal based on the concept art of the Monster. If it got good buzz then maybe they'd go with it before final special effects came in to play. Very convincing and hopeful idea I thought, until I stumbled upon two things. Anybody remember the PS2 game Final Fantasy X? Remember the monster through out the game? In case you don't, it was called "Sin". The FFX monster looks strikingly similar to the concept art that was released a couple months ago....therefore, it's not very original which disproves the possibility of the concept art being real considering Abram's said himself, "this is something we've never seen before". Not to mention, I found the source to the creation of that concept art and it was a guy who made it for a contest somehow related to the movie hype....therefore......debunked.

See for yourself!

Sorry if this has already been addressed and followed out but I swear I searched for about half an hour and found nothing.

it was more or likely debunked when it was found, and has been around at least once a month since it was found, the link i cannot give, but i assure you its been here before...

and can you please edit your link, its stretching the thread...

edit: you can't trout unless you have a link to the topic, even if you know it's been talked about

i believe this was the first mention of it

http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=21182

the link dazed gave goes to the fanart page, which, more then likely, has that pic in it more then 6 times...
