I think this monster will be a little more "in your face" than the Witch, though.

I just Googled it for photos, and the monster is sort of dull; somewhat stereotypical. A bunch of arms and eyes... kind of like Godzilla with a few other monsters mixed in.

Names Matter

Whats the connection with the title Cloverfield to a monster movie? Godzilla would have been pissed if one of his gang was so named.

don't quote me on this but I think the cloverfield is a codename for something else.... oh and here is the link if you want to see the monster... they aren't for sure its the actual one for the movie.. so if you don't want to spoil it, don't click it...

I saw the movie today, and don't worry about clicking the above link as that's not what the monster looks like. BTW, you get to see the monster quite a bit, but it's pretty irrelevant given what's going on around the monster... that's what makes the movie good.

If you like the TV series "Lost", you'll like this movie. They don't waste a lot of time going into the why's and what's of what's going on. You just get immersed into the moment and run with the charaters through to the end. Overall, I thought it was a pretty good movie.

By the way, the Cloverfield name isn't a code. It's the exit that JJ Abrams takes off the highway when he goes to work. He just needed a name and that seemed like a good one.

aside from the camera shaking everywhere and the fact that I had some tainted food while at the movie theater and was busy puking in the bathroom..it was alright. I wouldn't waste money to go and see it though. My personal opinion to wait till it becomes a blockbuster.
