I'm building up bile already. Akroyd has gone a bit weird over the years.

How did you manage to measure it as it bounced down the street?

# The original head, (which was the correct size), caused the audience at a test screening to ask why it was so small.
So they doubled its size, had another test screening, and nobody even mentioned it.

# Well the more head the better!

# Is this the original small or final version?

Aha! it's the first version that appears in the first trailer, they royally fucked up their cg/forgot to check actual dimensions.

# I think they're both wrong :D
the original looks more like the statue (more angular features) but the second one looks closer to the correct dimensions (5.35m from chin to base of crown/viewing window)

I wish they'd scored the actual film with that

That's not "twice the size"!
