I agree with those choices.

Actually hoping we get the monster looking close to his book description, as well as his personality..

With studio magic, doesn't really matter much these days. They can make Isaac look 8 foot.

Hell, Garfield’s only an inch taller than Isaac.

Well, six inches taller…

…if you count the coif.

I feel Nemebro's complaint, as I also prefer my Frankenstein's monsters to be physically imposing.

But it's not a deal breaker if done right.

^^^Your post got me to check something and, I was surprised Boris Karloff (THE Frankenstein) was only 5’11”.

From IMDB…:

The best estimate is that Karloff in full costume was between 6'2" - 6'4", given that the heavy boots added @ 4" and the head piece another 1" to Karloff's 5'10" - 5'11" frame [Karloff is listed as 5'10" in some bios and 5'11" in others]. In Shelley's novel, the Frankenstein monster was 8 feet tall.

It's not a matter of practical height on camera, it's a matter of principal. Manlets should know their place, and no semi-midget should be playing an eight foot tall gigachad like Frankenstein's Monster.
