What would functional giant monsters look like?

Ok, so this article has been posted and re-posted around the net many, many times. I'm not going to quote the entire article, just provide the linkage.

Now that's out of the way what would an actual, city-destroying monster look like? Clearly in movie magic land you can always just say 'lol it's from space' but that's not what this little exercise is about.

The best I could think of is something akin to a cross between a T-Rex and U.S. Godzilla. Two huge, super powerful hind legs with a massive bone structure with two much weaker front legs/arms. It's feet would have to be positively enormous but clearly it would crush the first few layers of topsoil at the least. Maybe it could or would have a long armored head and snout/tail and most of it's damage would come from running and smashing, stomping or thrashing it's tail.
 
Heres the biggest most functional monster:

I think it would be very slow and easy to outrun. The larger the animal the slower it would be. Like elephants. Yes, they can run pretty fast for short bursts but would give out pretty quickly.
