He should have said RELEASE THE KRAKEN like this...
Release the Kraken...
You sure you wanna release the, "I SAID RELEASE THE BLOODY KRAKEN!!!!!"

The sheer size of it. So big!
The insane roar and attention to detail like the breath of it during the scream.
The shell/armor design. Looks like it has some sort of helmet/head cover that retracts as it comes out of the water. There are some fine details I keep noticing after watch it over and over again like how the armor/shell is moved around with mollusk like muscle membrane. I know a lot of people say it isn't original but I think they did a perfect job of balancing between respecting the original design and updating it to make it even more fierce and "REALISTIC" if that is the word we want to use here. I mean, it looks like a mix between a Snake-Turtle-Octopus-Shark-humanoid. It looks like something we would recognize as a sea monster as opposed to something that looks completely alien. But I think the designers wanted something that looked a lot more POWERFUL. So naturally a huge jaw/mandible is almost automatic instead of a corny octopus beak or predator crab ant mandibles. I didn't like the six eyes initially but again, I think that is a hint back at the whole 8 legged crab/spider thing. It's head is basic but I think it was designed to look powerful enough to take a lot of damage.
I mean think about it. You wouldn't design a tough truck to look like a Ferarri.
I hope there is a scene of it doing something like nom noming on a huge whale to help really show the scale of it.
::: Hate :::
That I couldn't see more of it.
That it doesn't get to fight anything else that is the same size of it. I thought King King would have been the doorway into more huge monster fights but I guess I am going to have to wait until I see the remake of 7th Voyage of Sinbad to see a decent giant fight since Cloverfield and Transformers 2 let me down.
I cannot wait to see the awesome fight scene in 7th Voyage of Sinbad redone.

That's crazy that they're making a remake! I was just telling my wife about the original Clash of the Titans the other day. I was playing God Of War 2 and had to fight Perseus. She's never seen the original! I'm a terrible husband.
I know man. Movies are getting insane these days. You know they are remaking a lot of stuff. I even heard they are remaking Robocop... should be interesting.
