A380 vs 747 looks wise

Don't know what you guys think, but just looking at A picture of the A380 on Airliners.net I just realized for the first time how ugly it looks when you look at it head on.
There is something so graceful about the 747, and then the A380 just looks like a massive ship.
From the front it looks like Airbus's 'Beluga' more then anything else really.
Maybe its the positioning of the flight deck that makes it look strange, don't know...
I do hope Boeing go ahead with the 747 advance project, I cant really see them dropping the jumbo jet!
Anyway, just wanted to express my thoughts...
