I. Loved. Rampage. And that's all I'm going to say about that. Abrams however did say later on he would show the REAL trailer. Makes me wonder if it's the same stunt Bay pulled when he gave us the first look at Transformers involving the Mars Rover, which in truth had veeeeeeeeery little to do with the actual movie. More than likely, only part of the film will be done on handycams, but that's just my common sense talking.

A quote from the first link..

Personally I don’t think JJ Abrams would waste his time with a movie based on a video game that died out in the late 80’s early 90’s

I believe the movie is a adaptation of Clifford the Big Red Dog


proof

in the trailer when everyone is running you hear a person say "it's clifford, it's huge"

In the explosion you see a face, and that face is Clifford's

J.J. Abrams has a closet Clifford fetish, and he told some guy who told some guy, who told a guy, who told a guy, who told my half cousin twice removed whom I haven't seen in five years, that the movie is Clifford.

A video game is not an original creation.
Also..
It is not an adaptation of anything.

Big Monster Movie. Original creation. No adaption of anything.


If it were a movie based off of a video game then it would be an adaptation of said video game.

I am not stating my opinion, I am quoting what was said by Abrams..

i wasnt trying to imply this was stated by you.
to me, 'Original work' is very vauge .. any adaptation or rendention of "Rampage" could very well be seen and received as original work.

Based on what was described in the Wiki article, the basis of this movie was conveived while Abrams was in a toy store in Japan (looking at monster toys .. godzilla, swamp monster .. wolf-man .. etc)

of course .. until we get the "Official" info
it's all just a guess

Ok....here's my $0.03....

It looks like it'll be cool, maybe.....but I have no clue what that could possibly be. I can tell one thing, though: from the pic of the mangled statue of liberty....the thing's got 3 claws on it's arms(front legs?) & it's gotta be big enough to give an underhanded swipe to the statue....which I'm guessing means the statue, if completely intact, would just about come up to somewhere around its waist....provided that it's upper limbs are in relative proportions to that of a human's.

But that's about all I've got.
