I really love kaiju films, and Del Toro's not bad. I don't know if he'd be my first pick for a "giant monster wrecks the shit out of the hippies in San Francisco" movie, but I could see him doing an enjoyable, post-Cloverfield CGI fest.
You mention a giant robot. I did not see a giant robot in this ad. Is this going to have a giant robot? Is he going to be an Ultraman type giant robot, and help save the humans? Or is he more like MechaGodzilla, a giant dick who needs to be put down by our former enemy, the regular kaiju?

EvilHomer - 2012-12-01 Oh sweet Gunbusters, that DOES sound awesome.
It's even got vaguely Nazi-chic, Teutonic sounding names for the mecha! Knowing Del Toro, he'll probably forget the premise for like half the movie and give us a bunch of boring expository padding in between the between the kaiju rampages and robot plasma katana sword fights, but whatever.

Something one quarter the size of a carrier takes out the entire Golden Gate?
Man action movies have really been trying to promote the F-22 for the last decade (as a bomber?). I'm starting to wonder how much is it looking sexy and how much is a PR effort to not kill the whole pointless program.

Dinkin Flicka - 2012-12-01 FABIO is just a stickler for integrity in writing. As am I. You misspelled Adamantium, you fucking idiot.

They really phoned in the "this is a TV broadcast, no for real guys" AfterFX job.

Okay, doesn't look amazing, but if he can pull this off it'll be rad as fuck.

It's gonna be hard for him to top the forest god from "Hellboy 2: The Golden Army".
It was terrifying and destructive, yet I was filled with sorrow when it was killed.
I had the same bizarre mixture of feelings about the colossi in "Shadow of the Colossus."

This looks awful. I hope the monster destroys Facebook though.
