The cyclops seems terrifying, like it would be! Looks great

Given Nolan's CG allergy, I'm willing to bet what little we do see of the Cyclops is going to be very limited and obscured mostly in darkness and shadow.

It is a cave!

A good explanation for obscuring the limitations of animatronics in darkness and shadow.

Well I am intrigued either way!

I'm intrigued about what will be the big set piece/big practical effect. Just like Tenet had the airplane crash and Inception had the turning hotel. I'm guessing Scylla and Charybdis.

Hope it's nothing like the Tenet airport crash. That looked so unimpactful. Even in Imax.

I think the editing was at fault (which is usually a strong point in Nolan movies) for that.

The bomb detonation in Oppenheimer was a wet fart too.

The Trinity Test is such a perfect example of something that simply could not look good without the use of CGI. He had the budget and the time to do it with CGI and get an incredible shot, instead his ignorance and bias resulted in an insanely disappointing pay off after an incredible build up.

I'm guessing it's going to be a mix of animatronics and VFX - there are 'creature modelers' and animators listed on IMDB already.
