...And my weakness for spoilers continues. I read them.idahoblue said:
A lot I'd already figured out, but the monster description (and the "surprisingly accurate" sketch someone made based off of it) is VERY surprising. Not what I was expecting at all, though I'll have to see it in action before I can judge it. I hope that the ARG will continue after the movie is over to provide "official post-disaster explanations," government investigations, etc. to give us more backstory, especially if the movie never goes into that stuff (as many people had guessed, viral stuff like Tagruato and Slusho! isn't mentioned).
Still, sounds like the movie's strength isn't the mysterious monster gimmick that people were worried it was relying on, but the actual character dynamics.
I'm still anticipating this. A movie like this is so great, because some of these scenes he mentions sound EXACTLY like the kind of situation that'd happen in a nightmare involving a giant monster. That surreal feeling as you stand aside and observe this huge thing going about its business, terrified that it might look around and see you.
