Don't be until you get to see the film. I have a feeling, based on the reviews I've been reading, that it is spectacular.

It better be, I hyped AVP2 and that failed worse then Britney at parenting.

Cloverfield 2? (Warning Interview Could be Spoilertastic)...

On sequels Reeves confirmed rumors, but was quick to set them aside. ?Only time will tell. While we were on set making the film we talked about the possibilities and directions of how a sequel can go. The fun of this movie was that it might not have been the only movie being made that night, there might be another movie! In today?s day and age of people filming their lives on their iphones and handy cams, uploading it to youtube?That was kind of exciting thinking about that.?

Because its the largest city, the most well known city, the most populated city, the most iconic city ... can go on and on.

The movie 'Volcano' was in LA. 'Independence Day' showed multiple cities.

Not to mention that if the monster was blowing up, say, Baltimore, no one would give a crap, and probably just let it.

man...why does my poor NY always get destroyed in movies :(

I don't understand either? I mean, it must take billions to rebuild it each and every time! They had to do it for deep impact and godzilla and ton of other movies! :p

Does anyone have a REAL picture of the monster?

Just came back from seeing it (it's out in Australia). Absolutely awesome.

So, does it live up the hype? what is the monster like?

I didn't think the monster was anything special. It's a giant reptile type thing that does the usual stomping/eating/screaming/toppling buildings.

But this movie isn't about the monster, it's just a device to move the plot along and scare the crap out of you from time to time.

    • Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      Google Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer is leaving for OpenAI by Pradeep Viswanathan Noam Shazeer is best known as one of the co-authors of the 2017 “Attention Is All You Need” paper, which introduced the Transformer architecture that now powers most large language models. He also worked on several major Google AI projects, including LaMDA, before leaving the company in 2021 to co-found Character.AI. He also authored the Sparsely-gated Mixture of Experts (2016) paper, which is popular among the AI community. After falling behind OpenAI and Anthropic a couple of years ago, Google brought Shazeer back in 2024 as part of a major deal with Character.AI. Through this deal, along with Noam, several other researchers returned to Google DeepMind. More recently, he was a vice president of engineering at Google and a technical co-lead for Gemini. Today, Noam Shazeer announced on X that he is leaving Google and joining OpenAI. In his post, Shazeer said it was a difficult decision to move on, adding that he was proud of the Google team and what it had built together. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman welcomed the move with a post of his own, saying Shazeer was one of the people he had most wanted to work with since OpenAI’s early days. Google has made strong progress with Gemini over the past year, closing the gap with OpenAI in several areas. But losing Noam Shazeer is a major talent setback for them, especially after bringing him back less than two years ago by spending a fortune. For OpenAI, the hire adds one of the industry’s most experienced language model researchers to a team that is already pushing ahead with ChatGPT, Codex, and its next generation of frontier models.
