Cloverfield [after the movie]

Billum256 · Nov 27, 2007, 09:15 AM

OK if you've been to the theater in the last year then you've probably seen the trailer that has no name.

It starts with everyone hanging at a party having fun. Then there is a huge explosion and everyone runs outside in time to see the statue of liberty’s' head come flying and land on the street below them. After this you hear a man talking about how he was leaving this footage for anyone who found it. In the background you hear what sounds like roaring of something Godzilla like.

The whole movie seems to be shot through a camera view and at the very end of the trailer it flashes for a short second the website for the movie, every time this happens I can't catch the name. So basically what I'm asking is what are your theories about this movie and has anybody caught the name of the site for it.

Sorry if I couldn't explain the trailer well. I did my best.

Ya I know the trailer your talking about. My friends and I have been talking about it and we think that its another Godzilla movie(but its hard to tell). And no I haven't been able to catch the name of that site either

ohh well

The Website
IMDB: Cloverfield (2008)

The "mystery movie" is a marketing ploy for Cloverfield (produced by J.J.Abrams)

Cloverfield I believe is the movie you are talking about.

YouTube - CLOVERFIELD, New Theatrical trailer! (From HD source)

YouTube - 1.18.08 cloverfield trailer 2 full version

I just spent the last hour fighting a loosing battle with my computer to post this. I remembered seeing the trailer/teaser, and it did look cool, so I knew what I was looking for. It's by J.J. Abrams, and comes out 1-18-08.

The Matrix had a better "what's it about" marketing campaign in my opinion.

*Ochi Gate* · Nov 28, 2007, 04:35 AM

really? i dont remember the matrix one...

btw, thanks for the name of the show, i was going to make this thread, but billium did first.

Billum256 · Nov 28, 2007, 04:45 AM

It really doesn't matter which one has the best marketing campaign thats not what were talking about. The Matrix is old, this is new, its what catches peoples interest at the moment.

Thanks for the information everybody else. I really appriciate it. As for my theory, I really want to believe the thoery of it being a Voltron movie but I'm going to say its more likely to be a Godzilla movie. Oh well I can hope.

O_o; Did you actually read any of the information we gave you, though?

It's not a Godzilla movie... or a Voltron movie... or any other magnificent mystery.

It's an original monster movie by J.J. Abrams set to open in the most dismal of box office seasons. They're hoping to boost it's success with a clever viral marketing campaign. There's no mystery... provided you can use a search engine. The name "Cloverfield" appears in the trailer, the site's official description on google includes the name "Cloverfield" and the wikipedia entry for the film's release date redirects to "Cloverfield".

Yeah I actually just got to searching the info now I just firured I'd be polite and thank you for the help. I'm recalling my thoery. So yes now I know all of this and I'm really interested with the slusho site. I believe that it gives the premise of the sroty in the history but maybe I'm reading to much into things. I apoligize for my stupidity erilier srry about that.

*atomik_sprout* · Dec 28, 2007, 04:14 PM

Man, I can't wait to see that movie!!! I was watching previews for it on my friend's PC and I was blown away!! At first, I didn't know what to make of it, but then after about the second or third preview, I thought, "I know!! It's a monster movie!!!" Hellz yeah! I've always loved giant monster movies. Godzilla, King Kong, all of the giant robo fights from Power Rangers. I guess I'm a sucker for things like that.

But "Cloverfield" looks highly interesting, I have no idea what said monster even looks like, but I know that this proves to be good. I hear the whole movie is going to be from the "eyewitness perspective". Meaning, that it'll be filmed similar to the style of "The Blair Witch Project". Which by the way had a very miniscule budget but made millions.

I'm itchin' to see "Cloverfield". ^_^
