DaCocoBrova
Finally bought a new PSP, but then pushed the demon onto someone else. Jesus.
The fuck if I know. I haven't followed this thread all that closely.

Yes, DaCocoBrova is stupid. If you go to this thread (warning major spoilers and not just the monster): http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=23357 it'll describe the monster in detail. No good shots of it yet.
Monster spoilers only below:
The monster isn't green, it's grey.
-It has 4 legs and 2 really small, crab-like legs on it's torso (the crab legs might've been vestigial).
-It's approx. 30-40 stories tall
-It's front "arms" are "backwards" (as if you're elbows protruded in front of you) The arms are pretty long.
-It has 3 LONG fingers on each hand (like, index finger middle finger and thumb.
-Has 2 back legs, walks upright, but it appears that the front "arms" are significantly longer than the back legs.
-Has a long tail.
-Human-like head.
-Has these 2 red, puffing (possibly lungs) lobes on it's head. It's jaw looks like a bulldog (where it's "fangs" are over it's lips)
It's face is human/snake-like.
Slit nose, 2 slit-ish black eyes, 2 upper and 2 lower "fangs" protrude over it's "lips" like a bulldog (haha).
Round, bald head. It actually looks like a combo of Voldemort and a Bulldog haha.
It's got a somewhat short-looking torso, the tail makes it look way longer. The tail is definitely longer than the length of the torso, neck, and head.
The front arms are "backwards" where the elbows come out in front. Three REALLY slender and REALLY long fingers on each hand (like a "grey" alien) The arms appear MUCH thicker than it's legs. At one point, it appears to walk like a gorilla using it's front arms to propel itself, but it mostly appears to walk on it's back legs (mostly when it's being shot). It moves kinda fast, but not overly fast.
It's surprisingly short (on it's back legs, but with it's arms outstretched it has the capability to be really, really tall) and not as wide as you might think. I think it's no more than 35 stories tall
The legs are slender too, but the feet are THICK and stump like, bigger than one of the tanks it steps on.
Overall, the monster is a dark grey.
The monster itself is about 30 stories tall, and has grayish, transparent skin, like a deep sea creature. You can see THRU it just a little bit. It walks sort of hunched over and has two HUGE arms that bend forward at the elbow kind of like a spider. It moves upright in most scenes but when it does use its front arms, It actually walks a lot like how a Bat walks around in a cave. It has a slightly humanoid face ( but in a very cool way) where it has slits for its eyes and the mouth kinda reminds me of a Predator's mouth. Its fangs hang over its lips giving it a bulldog look. It has breathing sacks right next to where its ears should be which is common in animals like lizards and stuff.
No tentacles BUT it has a long tail that is oddly reminiscent of a tadpole tail or something close to it. Other than it being just as long as the body, it does not drag and is VERY flat at the end. While you don't get to see a WHOLE lot of the monster you DO get to see it up close a few time and it's VERY VERY cool.

That's as much as a visual we can get without a pirated copy online I guess heh

Sorry, I've never seen it.
I guess I wasn't as clear as I should have been. The love story is so crazy and over the top, but
The reason they go back to the city when they're being evacuated is so robert (the one going to japan) can rescue a girl from her apartment.
its very long tail hit the bridge. i thought the tail was a tentacle.
Okay, those who have seen the movie say that this picture is EXTREMELY close to the monster; keep in mind it was made by someone who read the descriptions, not someone who actually saw it.
My own (suck) attempts:
:lol

Is this a gory movie? Just asking because if it is, I will not take my GF to it :lol
Buttonbasher

Well we know from a trailer, a girl most likely explodes. But other than that I don't expect it to be super violent.-xBerserker- said:

From people who have seen the movie on Unfiction, they say that theres about 2-3 really Gory parts. Everything else is assumed violence. For instance, if someone's about to be eaten or killed the camera looks away.Tim-E said:

Smart guy. With a lot more screenings this week, it's only a matter of time until someone snags an actual picture of the monster.Aeon712 said:

I saw the movie last night. It's very strong. The hand-held stuff is frequently intense. If you get motion sick take a pill before you go.
All monsterage is awesome. The people stuff is fine if you suspend disbelief.
And, I believe, they snuck a audio little reference to Half-Life in the movie. There's a bit where you hear a military radio squawk and it sounds just like the combine soldiers.

I actually dreamed about this movie... the thing is that I even forgot it was so close to the oppening.
Second said:
Given the art style the same person likely did both pictures, so why does one picture have an extra set of arms, and have the larger ones structured differently?
I mean if it's just a recreation of what someone saw in a theater, I'd think they'd at least keep accounts as to how many arms it had consistent.

There's another new pic up on the 1-18-08.com site. (Different than the one above) I'm starting to think that these last 2 pics are showing the military trying to kill the monster after it stomps the shit out of New York and is trying to leave. Just a thought.
