You know, I’ve never been tempted to call koalas or wombats ‘fast’.
Anyway, I’m male, no fear of giants.
It might be the reesult of a lifetime spent working with cattle, horses etc. but giant animals fill me with apathy. The only thing I could think of while watching Jurassic Park is that the dinsosaurs probably were more intelligent than those people. Giant animals aren’t frightenting precisely because they are giants and so can’t hide or sneak up on you.
The only movie monster I’ve ever thought would be frightening to encounter and semi-realistic were the ‘Aliens’. Small and fast and intelligent enough to attack from ambush. That’s a problem.
Seriously, aren’t wombats generally little rotund grumpy old men in thick fur coats? Not something you’d wave your finger in front of but not exactly fear inspiring?
Personally, giant THINGS don’t bother me, and I am male thank you much, although never having met a GIANT in the classical sense, with OR without club, threats of turning my bones into bread, having a thing for ladies with harps for backs, that sort of thing… Dunno,really. I’dprobably be alarumed.
Spiders, now, spiders are creepy. Don’t care at all for spiders, nope nosirree. GIANT spiders would be REALLY bad.
You are obviously thinking of antlered wombats. They can be nasty.
Little rotund grumpy old men in thick fur coats? Nah. More like stoners in dirty macs. Imagine Comic Book Guy getting stoned and you’ve got a pretty good human equivalent of wombats. They are incredibly dumb, which always gives the impression that they aren’t at all sure of where they are or even what they are.
Definitely not fear inspiring.
Ah, so you’re a diver?
I suggest you watch “8 Legged Freaks”. That’s funny.
I used to be afraid of unusually tall and stocky men when I was a little boy. They loomed far above me and I could hardly see their faces. Words seemed like distant thunder rolling over hills. I suppose they might be giants.
I’ve never had any particular fear of giants. Things in the dark are most likely to give me the willies, really, and they could be any size.
In the recent remake of War of the Worlds, it was more the sound the tripods made when signalling to each other, plus of course that vaporizing ray. :eek:
