Because the monster was clearly alive at the end of the movie. And had those attacks i mentioned happened, it would've been standing in the end.
You kidding me, a combo of napalm and bunker busters would've destroyed the thing. Aerially napalming the eyes, mouth, and face with the sticky fiery chemical followed by steel penetrating bunker busters to the head and back would've completely killed it within minutes.
That would've been my command.
But who knows, maybe they did it after the footage but that's unlikely cause there's gonna there's a confirmed sequel. With the thing obviously still in it, i'm assuming, since we didn't see it die. Unless that last explosion at the end killed it. Or there were more of them.

You don't know any of this at all.
Nothing we saw them do to i worked, so what logic is there behind knowing without a doubt that that would have worked?

We did see the weapons the military utilized and none of them were in no way more effective that napalm and bunker busters. I'm referring to tactical weaponry and not the standard issue stuff like the weapons used or what we seen used. (to no avail)

But my point, is that we only see a fraction of the fighting that went on.
How do you know they didn't try that when Rob and company were in the tunnel, for example?

I completely agree. We dont know all the measures they took to destroy the monster. I assumed that the military did all they could before the Hammerdown Protocol.
They used the Mother of All Bombs, according to J.J. Abrams.
Let's not avoid the fact that
Spoiler:
the monster is a baby, so who knows what an adult one could withstand? If there are any, I mean.
Also...
Spoiler:
what does everyone think of the Slusho! connection? I think the "deep sea ingredient" is what they were drilling for on the rig that the monster destroyed, and the rig was owned by the company Rob was going to work for in Japan. We know the two companies are connected cos it says so on the Slusho! site. Not sure what the point of all that would be, if J.J. Abrams is saying that a satellite crashing into the ocean is what woke the thing up. Unless THAT is what they were trying to recover with the rig.
Of course, this is all fruitless if none of you have visited the site.

Yeah, it depends on how much it's been built up for you. I thought it was going to be a load of crap, like a typical new movie, but I ended up being somewhat impressed, cause it wasn't crap.
And my Dad tagged along with me, and he thought it was going to be great, when he ended up getting a bit disappointed.
A good movie, but it's not the best movie of the year.
