The long delayed...

Pathetically, I've envisioned an entire backstory for this monster...

Froggy Went A-Courtin'

Everyone's favorite Japanese tourist in New York, making a play for one of the local babes.
I give up. I'm tired of looking at this already. There, are you happy now?

Attack of the 50 Foot Woman!

How COOL would this be REMADE?!

my theory

Let's just go with common sense for a change. All the clues are there people!

My personal obsession

I'll let the man himself say it:

"They were not composed altogether of flesh and blood. They had shape...but that shape was not made of matter. When the stars were right, They could plunge from world to world through the sky; but when the stars were wrong, They could not live. But although They no longer lived, They would never really die. They all lay in stone houses in Their great city of R'lyeh, preserved by the spells of mighty Cthulhu for a glorious resurrection when the stars and the earth might once more be ready for them...:"

H.P.Lovecraft

Cthulhu waits to reap your soul!

That distant roar was of course the deep rumbling of Cthulhu's maw that embodies infinite disparity and hopelessness. He also has an umbrella to keep the rain off his head.

I had fun with this one. First time I've really tried a likeness.

It is a kids movie!!

After I saw your image I went frame by frame and discovered this image. You're so on the money Paul!

You know damn well its just another kids movie

I heard a faint "i love you" in the roaring from the trailer, didn't you?

CHALLENGE II: 1-18-08 Monster

Check out this trailer from the new JJ Abrams movie (creator of Lost and Alias) and come up with a visual what the monster could look like. You can take this in a variety of directions. It can be completely realistic or stylized, serious or funny.

Couple of things that were mentioned in the trailer that could help:
-its huge
-its alive
-animalistic roar
-strong enought to decapitate Lady Liberty
