Thread: Cloverfield

That was one hell of a movie!!

i saw a preview for it, what the hell is it about? It looks like an action, right?

It reminds me a long time ago a remake of godzilla came out and they showed like nothing in the previews so you had no idea what it was about- except of course it was called godzilla. But i wonder if they tried to do the same tactic, show some stuff but not much and get peoples curiousity to go and see it.

Quality movie. Totally worth it. It's in a Blair Witch Project format (hand-held camera, low quality), but you actually get to see the monster.

And the monster? Totally BA.

One of my friends said it looks like Jeff Goldblum from the remake of "The Fly"

Even posted a short snippet of it.

Pretty awesome movie. I would recommend it.

It sounds good, but if it's in the Blair Witch format with jiggling camera angles, I am out. For some reason, it makes me dizzy, nauseous, and seizure like...sucks. My family thought it was pretty funny when we were watching Blair Witch movie and I got sick...funny until the seizure stuff. I wanted to play World of Warcraft and couldn't because of the movement.

It's a great movie, but if that happens to you, then I don't recommend it. I don't really get sick from movement and stuff, but that one really had me feeling sick. I think it would've been a little better if they didn't use that type of camera, but I still liked the movie. It's just not something I could watch more than a few times.

I had the same effect from the Blair Witch movie,plus the girl screaming and whining added to my nauseousness.

Sounds like a good movie, but after I watched the trailer, I doubt I could stomach it.

I don't get dizzy from movies that have that jiggling camera thing, however I wasn't really interested after I saw the preview.

I saw it for the monster. It didn't disappoint. Actually, there were some pretty funny parts (that were supposed to be funny). The guy holding the camera was kind of goofy.

Yep. To be totally honest, the first time I saw the preview I thought that it was like Alien spaceships or something. Once I got into the theatre and saw the monster though, it was pretty cool. That dang thing was a beast, and so were the little alien/spiders falling off of him.

I had the same feeling.

BTW, did you see at the end, back when the camera flips back to the scene at Coney Island, where supposedly something falls from the sky? I didn't see it when I saw the movie, but I checked on Youtube and it's still iffy.

I don't think so. I'll have to check it out later or something.

I thought it was pretty good. One of those movies that, if you're gonna watch it, watch it in the theatre.

It was kinda frustrating though. You'd catch a glimpse of the alien and that was it. You wanted to see more of "it". But it had me feeling like I was holding the camera at times.

decent movie but they dont explain anything..what it is, where it came from, if it died.. guess it means part 2 will explain everything.
