[SPOILERS] Multiple Monsters? Timeline? *animations*
pictures, spoilers, dont click if you havnt seen yet

I have been reading about ARG and other Cloverfield stuff since I got home from watching the movie. I really didnt follow the ARG thing much at all before the movie came out.

Anyways, I had a question maybe people could think something up for this, or maybe its just the angling in the movie, But i think the initial sighting in the camera view:

Looks nothing like the view we get at the end before Hud is killed in my opinion:

I mean it looks larger in the first part and even body type looks different. Although obviously the monster was HUGE because we could see from helicopter view how big it was and that it jumped up and hit the chopper from such a far way down.

Also:
I just am confused about the whole time line, I think the 1-18-08 was just the marketing thing and the movie took place in April/May and the date really has no significance to the actually movie...I mean maybe the military found the tapes on 1-18-08, and is watching it but then again I didnt read much into the ARG til today and TIDO and some other site I never got to look at because they were taken down? Is there any topic on this forum I can get a run down on the details at? Its so slow tonight with all the traffic I thought I would ask instead of looking around.

I think that maybe they had put in a random looking monster in those trailers/teasers.

The monster looked entirely different when it was moving behind the buildings in the movie.

The bit you see go between the buildings looks to be the rear end of the monster, which we don't see very often from that perspective in the film. From what we do see it seems MGP is sort of wider and flatter in overall shape. Because we don't get a 'runway shot' of MGP it's harder for most to visualize every angle he could be viewed from. A taller narrow biped like Godzilla or a T-Rex he's not.

There's a discussion of the possibility of multiple monsters happening here: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=23750 (though understandably, there is also discussion of HUD and gay homeless men).

Look at the last picture in this video, that gives you a good idea of how the monster actually DOES work with that scene.
