Cloverfield

[docnbhd]

Releases tomorrow... Post your thoughts here. Freaky flick or disappointment? As much as I love Lost, I am a little hesitant to jump on the JJ Abrams bandwagon.

[dunkin deeznuts]

gonna be a dissapointment..hope it will be good but I can't see it living up to expectations....

I can't see this monster/godzilla/whale monster living up to the hype that the advertising has built....

[djonno]

id have to agree....im hoping that its going to be damn good, but i honestly cant see it living up to its own hype, no matter how good it is.

word

[salmon5194]

i cant expect how good it is, but i think it gonna be the very fresh movie~~ just hoping its doesnt end like World War

[fortune]

tbh i think it's gonna rock. everyones being so negative off the little they've seen. wait 'till it comes out. i'm going to see it at midnight tonight with a few friends. my friend works at a movie theater and got an advanced screening last night and said it was insane so i can only hope.

Yeah, and it fucking deserves it!

[polishmike]

It fucking sucks, it's a movie for morons (it's ok if you're 14, you just don't know any better yet)

[alexryb]

For some reason,

I thought Richard Kelly was involved in this.

I thought this for a really long time.

funny coz it's bad or good?

there has been an unbelievably amount of hype surrounding this movie, and considering this is Abrams first movie, i just can't see it living up to the excitement.

Plus going by previous posts, I trust polishmike's judgement is somewhat accurate...

[proteus]

Wasn't Abrams involved in MI3?

[artificialsky]

Cloverfield is basically the 21st-century version of The Blair Witch Project.

[KyleFall]

can't wait to see this film.

well choreography is pretty much staged, no bloopers or anything, which sucks since it's supposed to be a first person film.

i think it was so bad that it was good.

[destructodisk]

I thought it was really good. I'm interested to hear what people's complaints were about it, because I loved it.

my friend was squeamish even during the party sequence.

[salmon5194]

damn，people on IMDB give lots of 1 stars and 10 stars, i thinks this comment might be usefull ~~

This has got to be the worst monster movie I have ever seen! The whole movie is laughable. First, it take almost 25 minutes before this movie even starts, and after all of the useless banter of party guests things start to happen. And let me tell you that you could just use the footage from the trailer and skip about 20 of the most boring minutes of the whole film. Second, the monster, you get little glimpses of it until about 60-70 minutes into the film, and you get a very big disappointment, it's not Godzilla, a T-Rex, or anything that is even remotely familiar. It looks like someone put the body parts in the wrong places. If JJ Abrams brought anything back from Japan, it wasn't how to make a monster movie. I'll tell you this, the Japanese are laughing at us all over again! There will be no Cloverfield monster for sale at every little store like all the Godzilla's all over Japan. JJ, Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez called! They want their cameras back, the want to start filming Blair Witch 3! In short, I know, too late, DO NOT WAIST YOUR MONEY ON THIS FILM!

[hellogoodbye]

such a shitty fucking show. destrutodisk, curious as to what you liked about it?

[datasupa]

the way i usually judge if a movie is worth watching is to observe who likes it, and who hates it.

applying this method, it's pretty obvious that cloverfield is going to supersuck some major asssauce

[bluespring]

so what was the monster??? im a lil curious on how it looks like

[Caps Lock]

I read the plot on wikipedia and wow this movie sucks major donkey balls.

[Eason]

Not going to buy any of the hype, it's directed by the guy who did The Pallbearer and Felicity. Fuck it.

[hellogoodbye]

bluespring, check the spoiler thread for ph3nen's ms paint version of the monster. it's actually scarier than the one in the movie.

[bluespring]

^saw the damn thing... the look of the monster seems to reflect how retarded the movie is

im gonna watch this and hate myself afterwards

[dunkin deeznuts]

guess its time to remake another Asian movie....waiting for an American director's take on Battle Royale or Old Boy.....you know its coming.........

[docnbhd]

Wow... I am having second thoughts of seeing it on the big-screen and rather wait for the DVD release in another two weeks, haha
