I wonder if it's the Cloverfield or the "Fergie looks like a man" that gets the most hits in this thread :24:

Speaking of Fergie, that joke only goes well here. Somebody in school asked me what the monster was and what it looked like, and I said, "Duh, it's Fergie, and she looks like a man". I was the only one laughing :D

What's wrong with being a movie fan? That's how movies get made anyways. Somebody decides they like movies enough to make one.

Does it register somewhere in cyber-statistic-land that OTz gets this many hits a day?

:24: I need to make more threads like this :D

-MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD-










So, back to Cloverfield. I wanna give up some information, because it seems that a lot of people I've talked to about it lately are confused as hell. The origins of the monster are rather confusing, but the viral marketing campaign helps a bit. From what the sites say, along with J.J. Abrams(The producer) mentioning this in an interview, the monster has been in the ocean for thousands of years. Near the end of the movie(One month before the attack), you see an object fall into the ocean. It's been confirmed as a Slusho(Company involved with the whole viral deal) satellite. The satellite apparently disturbed the monster, causing it to wake up, and be pretty much pissed off. Along with that, it's in a place that is confusing to it, and being attacked with tons of weapons. The best way to put it is it's just a bad fucking day for the monster. It's not like it just decided to go on a path of destruction one day. If you notice, near the end when Hud dies, the monster is obviously away from the major part of the city(You can see it and all the smoke in the background), which is where the destruction first started. My guess is that the only reason it would be in the park, rather than staying in the city, is because it is trying to escape what's causing it pain(The military), and just get back home, back to the ocean. I'm also willing to bet that if the military hadn't kept on bombing the shit out of it, it probably would have gone back to the ocean.

Something cool to note is that they've tied in the whole Bloop thing from 1997 with this movie, saying the Cloverfield monster is what made that noise.

To go into the long-ass origins explanation, I need to explain things first.

Tagruato is a Japanese company that owns many subsidiaries, one of them being Slusho. Slusho is the child company of Tagruato. Slusho(The fictional drink mentioned in the TV show Alias and Heroes) is a soft drink company, of which Rob is the vice president. This is why he's moving to Japan. Continuing on, Slusho uses an ingredient from the bottom of the sea, called "Deep-sea Necter", under amazing pressure and extreme cold temperatures.

This is where Tagruato comes in. They are a drilling company(That also own satellites and companies and all that good stuff), used to get the necter for Slusho. TIDOwave, some activist group against the drilling, somehow caused one of the Tagruato satellites to fall or something(Still reading into all of this), and it lands in the ocean(Seen at the end of Cloverfield). Apparently, this disturbs the monster, waking it up. Some rumors going around are that the monster was an alien that was on the satellite(Obviously small to start out), and the reason it became so large is because Tagruato dumps toxic waste into the ocean from their drilling.

There's a lot more to all of this, but all the viral marketing, numerous rumors, and tons of sites make it a bit difficult.

matt you seriously need to go and do a degree in film studies sweetie:)

:) Hehe, thanks. I plan on doing that when I get out of high school. :cool

That's pretty much one of the many reasons why I'm so obsessed with SAW. Most people just assume it's because I'm weird or into horror to much, but it's had a huge impact on my life. Before SAW, I never really knew what I wanted to do. After SAW, I had to become more observant with movies, to notice the twists, clues, and all of that in the SAW movies, because as Darren said, they reveal the ending twist in the beginning of the SAW movies, you just have to be very observant. It not only helps for the SAW movies, but now I'm more observant for pretty much any movie. I notice shit that nobody else does. Not to mention, after SAW, I started getting more into movies, had a chance to speak with one of the actors, and doing that, it got me even more into the world of movies, and it started fueling my career towards moves. So I have SAW to thank for that. Without these movies, I'd probably still not know what I wanted to do after high school.

Also, SAW was a very independent film. Made for just a little over $1 million, and filmed in only 18 days. No CGI at all, all filmed in one entire building(Just redressed), and it was such a simple concept, that all the big-time Hollywood actors and actresses wanted in on it. The Blair Witch Project and Cloverfield also helped me to realize you don't need millions of dollars and big-time actors and actresses to make a movie and be successful. Those movies were shot with a simple hand-held camera. They just took it out and got to work.
