Blair Witch 2 was hilarious, and in two instances kind of scary. The Esrever thing was stupid, though.

The creepiest part of the movie to me was not the MAIN, giant monster, but the small little spider/crab/mantis things instead.


I mean, the giant one was pretty cool, but the whole scene in the medical tent with the people exploding from being bitten (the woman exploding behind the curtain? Awesome.) was intense. The guy in front of me actually jumped and swung his arms in the air at that part. I've never seen that before in a theater. I've seen people jump, but never jump and swing their arms.

I was reading around on the net and apparently it is actually revealed in the movie how the monster came to be....except you would of had to read a interview with Matt Reeves to understand it...

Spoiler in Black---

In the final scene in the film, (showing Rob and Beth saying they love each other to the camera) They take the camera and pan off toward the ocean. If you watch carefully you can see something fall out of the sky and land in the ocean. Fans were thinking it was the monster landing, but it was revealed to be a satellite. Reeves said in an interview when asked about the origins of the Monster that it was asleep at the bottom of the ocean. People are beliving that it was the satallite that woke the monster.

great movie.... i wish it was a little more than just the tape, like a military briefing or researcher before the film talking about the incident and playing the film and giving some in depth information after.

DVD extras, maybe?

I like the idea that they don't go too far into the backstory and the like. They'll probably rectify this with a bad sequel or something (The Cloverfield Manga everyone's talking about would be a good place for some too)

Given that this was hyped by an ARG, I'm hoping for a lot of Easter Eggy shit.

The ARG really didn't have much to do with Cloverfield though. I mean it did but at the same time it basically set everything up for a sequel and or prequel dealing with other elements outside of the Cloverfield circle.

I think the best method for a sequel would be to give us a documentary from several years later set within the Cloverfield universe.

Lord fuck I hated this movie, when I wasn't falling asleep with how boring it was, I was pissed at how stupid it was, even the monster was pretty disappointing, or maybe it was the lack of clear shots of it.

I would rather see The Village again then this worthwhile pile of monster crap.

To each his own about the monster and the camera. But I don't get the no plot argument. It had a plot, a simple one. Monster attacks city, guy tries to save girl and escape. That's enough. People are complaining about how there was such a lack of explanation for the monster, but what are they supposed to do, have some scientist come out of nowhere and give a perfect explanation of what it is?

It's not even a 90 minute movie. If it got bogged down in plot, it would kill the pacing. I like that there was no explanation for the monster. All the more interesting. All you have to know is it's big, it's mean, it's a force of destruction. This is a popcorn flick, not Atonement or something. Who needs that much plot in a movie like this?

Sketch of the monster. Most accurate one from what I can tell.

And I don't get the complaints about the ending. I don't think a perfect, happy ending would work. The ending left me wanting more, because you're pretty sure the damned thing is still on the loose.

The monster looked somewhat cool, its too bad the Aerial chopper shot was him surronded in dust and smoke, and the only other decent shot is when the dude gets eaten by the monster, and even then its only a headshot I just really did not like the shaky camera dealy, It reminded me of The Blair Witch, which I dislike, also It was only like 1 hour and 20 minutes as you stated. I understand that it is difficult to have a plot and explanation when no one knows what the fuck is going on, and running like crazy, as its seen from a handheld camera, I just wish the ending was Was not the way it was, Ideally for me it could have been them saying they love each other, running towards a chopper that is about to take off, the monster is after them and the last thing before the end credits you see the monster being bombed by a F-16 Fighter Jet, and the camera falls to the ground and goes off, that leaves the question did they survive, did the monster survive, did they even hit the monster, did they make it to the chopper, but be taken down again by the monster, it also leaves the sequel door wide open

The only problem with the ending is...

that would make me think the monster lived and that the characters got away. The fact that the monster was bombed and the last shot you see is of the characters flying off before the camera is dropped to the ground would leave the crowd thinking that way. Ending the movie the way they did showed that the characters were killed off except for the monster. I didnt even know of the thing after the credits and I just assumed from the ending he was still alive anways.

Im not saying that your ending is a bad ending...its a great ending if you want to end the movie on a nice high note. But I think the directer was trying to get the people wanting more.

This movie seems very cathartic. It's the antithesis of the movie formula, and does a lot of things considered "bad." I'm just hoping the movie really has some merit beyond being counter culture.

Honestly, if your not retarded (which I think I can say your not) and you can accept the point of view from what your seeing, its amazing.
Everyone who hasnt liked it are the types that watch meet the Spartans. They hate that they dont have any closure or backstory. This movie is not about that.

If you can accept it for what it is, it is amazing.

I tend to agree with this but not the extremes that you've gone into. I thought it was an average film, I enjoyed some parts but I really think they should havenot used the hand held camera angle throughout the whole of the film, instead they should have done half and half with some professional shooting and the rest in hand held mode. Some things really annoyed me though:

1) The guy filming just annoyed me with his chitter chatter even when they were in the tunnel running away he was cracking stupid jokes. And walking around the room prior saying to everyone how Rob and the other bird had sex. Just the way he just wouldnt shut up in general. I realise this was in the movie to add to the 'realism' of the whole situation but it just really annoyed me. I was glad when he died at the end

2) How the guy kept filming absolutely EVERYTHING, when at times you just think "mate fuck filming this shit, just get the fuck out of there". which leads me to point 3...

3) How long is the battery in the camera? They start filming around what, say 9pm on the night of the party and it manages to last til about 7am the next morning, being on almost constantly and having used night vision etc. Certainly can last a while lol

4) Why did they fly OVER the city when they were in the helicopter instead of flying AWAY from it? Dunno about you guys but if I was trying to get the fuck away from something I would go the long way if I had to as long as I got the fuck AWAY from it, not hovering over it, lol

I did like parts of it though, I did enjoy the realism of it with the hand held camera even though at times it got very annoying and was unnecessary (and my mate started feeling a bit of nausia [sp?]). I also liked how they've left it open to maybe a sequel, possibly using the girlfriends story once she got in the helicopter, or the army guy's story from the ground.
