I intended to see Cloverfield last night, but some pretty rough family stuff came up and I decided to just wait for DVD. Now I wanna see it ASAP. Pagong and pickledsquirrelnuggetss got me all excited. (and no, it wasn't because psn said "dick"...)

I'm happy he made the budget and then some back. Very well deserved! Handheld cameras and no-name actors? Just a guess, I have no idea.

I have a feeling this movie is going to be one of those films that people go back to see several times. ETA: $41 Million. Pretty huge! They projected $20 Million.

Another girl in our row left about 20 minutes in and never came back. It didn't bother me at all but I still can't imagine sitting close to the screen. So yeah, if you go, go early and get a good seat at the back.

I think I'd have to see it for myself to believe it...it would be pretty easy to fake that. I imagine it's legit though, definitely Abrams M.O. edit: Ok, yeah, it is there. I just watched the first few seconds on a bootleg and it does flash on the screen briefly. It's not there the entire time that the department of defense screen is on though, it only flashes for a frame before it switches to the next screen. Sneaky bastards.

How good or bad a film would it have been if it had been shot as a normal film rather than a home video camera style ala Blair Witch?

Having it be a "home movie" explains why the monster was shown as much as it was eta: the "logo" pops up 54 seconds into the credits Last Edited By: maxxfisher 01/21/08 8:11 PM. Edited 1 times.

I think someone is manipulating the bootlegs that are out there. Additionally, I'd like to share with you guys the experience I had this second go round listenting to the two MORONS who were sitting behind me. The following transcript is about 99.9% word for word: Woman: Central Park. Is that in Pittsburgh? Man: Yeah. and... Woman: What is that? Is that the Statue of Liberty's head? Man: Uhh, I don't think so. That looks too small. ...but wait! There's more. Spoiler [+] After Marlena "explodes"... Woman: Is she dead? Man: I think she turned into one of the creatures. ....and finally... Woman: That was the DUMBEST thing I ever saw. Man: I know. Apparently these two buffoons don't ever look at each other. I hope they crashed on the way home. :) Additionally, regarding the final scene... Spoiler [+] Something DEFINITELY crashed into the ocean. I couldn't make out what it was. It was falling from the top right of the screen. It looked to be many miles off the coast. Last Edited By: PagongSchlong 01/21/08 9:22 PM. Edited 1 times.

I'm jealous of you fuckers that have seen it twice. Not counting kids movies, the last time a saw a movie in an indoor theater was The Departed.

I think someone is manipulating the bootlegs that are out there. Really? I was not convinced by the still frames but the bootleg vid seemed to be legit...and I use the word "legit" fully aware that I'm talking about a bootleg video. Pretty impressive and pointless manipulation if it's not actually there.
