JJSaurus??? (A 1-18-08 Update)

So I was browsing Ain't It Cool News the other day, and noticed there was an update on the whole 1-18-08' front. Apparently some guy who has a friend who is friends (or someone related to an editor) dished about the creature--dubbed JJsaurus by AICN. Seems this thing has a bit of a parasite problem (which is interesting because PARASITE was one of the films working titles/aliases). Apparently in the flick the armed forces encounter a bit of a problem when fighting JJsaurus...seems that heavy artillery dislodges these smaller parasite creatures from JJsaurus.

I'm reminded of the rumors that this thing is somehow related to a whale (which are host to numerous parasites, including barnacles which fix themselves to a whales flank). On paper all of this might make sense/be cool...but I can't help but shudder at the thought of actually SEEING this on screen. Frankly, I think it will be lame.

Also, there is a pretty good report of a longer teaser that's being prepared...which includes (apparently) a soldiers dire words. When asked by Rob what the creature is he says: "We don't know, but it's winning." Scary stuff. This same report also seems to suggest that their might be an illness/disease associated with this creature and/or it's appearance (a companion of Rob's complains of being sick/looks like she's going to vomits and starts "crying blood"). This goes along with a story I read a while back (can't remember where) that basically said there would be some zombie elements to this movie.

What does it all mean JJ?
