Re: Cloverfield

I walked into the theater half-expecting the monster to be the mechanical smoke from Lost.

Thankfully, I was wrong.

Re: Cloverfield

Hud fell out of his mouth because the mouth was too BIG. There's also a chance Hud could have been swallowed and regurgitated. There's no doubt in my mind that ALL of Hud went in to the monster's mouth.

There is only 1 monster - at least, in New York. I'm positive.

Off topic: I still can't explain the smoke monster.




I had no idea that there was a manga prequel.
I shall need to look for it now.

Re: Cloverfield

so what is Cloverfield again?

Cloverfield is a street in L.A. It's one of those goverment things where the give something a codename that's a place really far away, like the Manhattan Project (which was done in Arizona)

Re: Cloverfield

There's a bunch of reasons. Shox has one of them, the street name is another, and the director also said that "Cloverfield" was the name of the offensive attack against the monster launched by the military.

Re: Cloverfield

You know, I saw something on Fox News about Cloverfield being offensive to 9/11 victims. After actually watching the movie, I realized that report was complete and utter poppy****. They make a reference to 9/11 once when the monster's initial attack starts but it's logical. If you were in Manhattan and saw a large "thing" annihilate a building in one hit, wouldn't you think that terrorist were attacking at first? Some people will do anything for drama...

Re: Cloverfield

There are several clear cases where they were trying to emulate 9/11. But I wasn't offended or shocked. I still loved the movie.

Way to not see the movie and make yourself look like an ass [again].

And Mal, when you see the monster being attacked by the army, would you not agree that it is around the height of a skyscraper; but when Hud, Rob, and Beth are in the helicopter, they are clearly at least the height of 1 and half skyscrapers above the ground; yet, the monster still managed to grab hold of it. Explain, please.

Re: Cloverfield

It jumped.

Or it stood up. It's shown on its back legs throughout the movie at several times.

Or the helecopter lowered to get a better look.

Re: Cloverfield

Considering it lived under enormous pressure in the ocean, I wouldn't put it past the monster to have a mean vert.

Re: Cloverfield

I saw this last Sunday I believe. I bought a slushie, and I couldn't drink it for the whole movie. It made me sick (By the way, wikipedia says the movie was filmed in a way that is supposed to make you sick). I had to throw away my slushie after. Awesome movie though!
