I could go see this movie tonight at midnight, but darn it, money is short :angry:

The more I look at that gif the more I am disappointed by the monster :(

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.

Less than 12 hours away from me seeing it. I'll let you know how it is, just me I won't steer you wrong.

This is JJ Abrams, not some terrible Aliens movie.

Hey now, let's not get carried away. Nothing fails that bad. Nothing. I'm going to see Cloverfield in 4 hours...should be good =)

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.?

seen it..

not for those with simulation sickness, saw alot of people went out in the middle of the movie

[Razorwing]

I can't wait to see it.. whenever I get the chance to.

[Sam Symons Veteran]

Cloverfield is a great movie. Like Acedriver said...not for those with simulation sickness. The way it's filmed really ties you to the characters though.

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

[Hurmoth]

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

I never understood that myself. Why NYC is almost always the city that gets destroyed. Hollywood must hate NYC :p

[Rappy Veteran]

Dunno maybe because its like one of the most well known cities in the world.

[episode]

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.

Poor Baltimore :p

Just came back from the theater.

It was good... Very very good.

But I feel so sick right now... brb

[HoochieMamma]

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?

[Vortex566]

Oh how I long to see this film. You people are making me laugh about Baltimore !

[Mr Original]

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

Living in England i dont get the pleasure of seeing it for 2 weeks...

[draklin]

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

Could be worse, you could be in Tokyo. That place gets creamed more than NY.

I'd pay to watch Baltimore get creamed. Nothing good there except John Hopkins.

[JAbad28]

Has anyone got the Ethan Haas email? There was some type of puzzle game months back in the summer, if you completed it I guess you get the email..

Well I got it but cant open it right now since I have to get to school, gr..

[nexx]

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.
