The first trailer for this was intriguing.

Now I'm just at the so what stage. It's lost it's momentum for me.

That could always build back up but I think they've mishandled the publicity for the flick.

Thats awesome Jrs! Thats so cool you got to see all those films so early in advance. Most suckiest thing about being over here in the UK is the MASSIVE wait between the US release and Uk release of most films. Its getting a bit better, but not much.
Yeah i just found this out too. I gotta say im pretty relieved. The more i looked at it, the more it looked like something from Star Trek. The monster you describe sounds awesome. But you have certainly wet my appetite for this. The same thing i keep hearing from everyone who ahs seen it is how much the monster goes nuts and totally destroys the city. Exciting stuff.

You know this "Something has found us" tag line thats popping up in the posters and the trailers now, well, what the hell does that mean? I mean, it's not like New York was hiding or anything...it's a pretty stupid tag line.

I think "HOLY CRAP" would have been a better one.

hey jrs, this is the website with the review on it.

That's just about real.

Cloverfield monster revealed???

LOL.
I honestly thought that by watching the clip at the 1:30 reveal mark I would be (again)...

Rats, it says this video is no longer available.

Is "something has found us" tag line means that some kind of aliens from outer space have found our planet...????

based from the synopsis above, the movie sound interesting as it was said to be different from the other giant monster film. wanna try to see this.

Hmmmm, this film looks like it might try to depend on a 9/11 subtext? A day of disaster with people running around wondering...

"What's going on? Who's doing this to us?"

OK, except that it seems they know who/what's doing this... big ole' monster dude!! (and maybe some mini-me monsters??)...
...unless they don't realize what it is until late in the movie, in which case, the who/what question is fine.

The other thing is though, they have been making movies of that sort long before 9/11 (ID4 comes to mind, but again, that's a sorta thing where they know vaguely who/what it is) so I personally think its more that they may be just going with the formulaic concepts inherent in this type of movie.
