Bojangles Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I haven't seen it yet and I'm teetering on waiting for it on betamax. I dunno...the whole "Blair Witch" perspective is kinda throwing me off of it. It got to me back then in the theaters. Plus I'm not a fan of watching a whole movie of senseless destruction (if that's what it is). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SayOne Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I just got back from seeing Cloverfield and There Will Be Blood... Its okay, not up to the hype, think Godzilla with handycams There Will Be Blood was dope as shit though, great acting, good story and very funny at times, a definite thumbs up from me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the_gooch Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22756913/ "LOS ANGELES - The creature-feature “Cloverfield” became the first monster hit released in 2008, debuting with $41 million, a record opening for January, according to studio estimates Sunday. Paramount’s tale of a giant reptile causing chaos in New York City surpassed the $35.9 million premiere weekend of the “Star Wars” special edition in 1997, the previous best for January. Opening in second-place was 20th Century Fox’s romantic comedy “27 Dresses,” starring Katherine Heigl as a perpetual bridesmaid. It pulled in $22.4 million." BTW, smash on katherine heigl.

awkward eye Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 most of the people who didn't enjoy this movie, or didn't enjoy the ending, tend to be fucking idiots who can't handle watching anything that doesn't end up being bow-tied into a neat little package and handed to them in a succinct period of under two hours. also, what kind of pansy gets motion sick from this movie? god..... Well put, this movie was awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awkward eye Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 the ending was fucking gay...the rest was the shit.The ending was awesome, there was no happy ending you know what the fuck happened to them. What more did you want? For them to fly off into the sunset hand in hand......:lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnitzel Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 that movie was great. I can't imagine a better ending for it.. thumbs up from the schnitzelmeister (not that that means shit all) but I do think it wasa good movie and i liked how it wasn't all happy. but yeah that camera must have been made by the army it was so resilient Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayabusa Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 ummm it was way over hyped not as epic as they were making it seem i liked the movie the ending was good the monster was OKAY HUD saved the movie i think and so did his persistant attempts to smash that sceney chick throughout the movie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intangible Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 horrible movie...if only the monster would have actually resembled Cthulhu maybe i would have liked it more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yeastinfection Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 It wasn't bad. The monster wasn't as cool as I thought it would be. But I think the best part of this movie is the whole marketing campaign. Somebody should summerize the "backstory". I'm just curious and don't want to search through all those sites.

Intangible Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 backstory...inspired by H.P. Lovecraft/Cthulhu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_gooch Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 they really should do a cthulhu series, but on some lord of the rings level of movie making. oh and yeastinfection, here: http://cloverfield.despoiler.org/index.php?title=Main_Page and here: http://dissent-is-cool.livejournal.com/19698.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swif1 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 HAHAHAHAHAHAHA This nigga said zerglings. Gollum; no camping, nigga! HAHAHAHA *ahem* The movie was ok. I'm surprised they were able to keep a tight lip about this movie. Good ending. I saw a guy rocking a pair of Red Monkey Jeans tonight. They are more than likely fake, but who cares.

AllTheWrongWords Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 But for real. This is embarrassing but this movie was so fucking intense all the way through once me and the girl got home I couldnt even have sex. I just wanted to run through the streets from a 30 story tall monster with tanks and jets bombing it the whole time. God this movie was awesome.

Fist 666 Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 the movie was okay at best. i was fine with a "sad" ending, but it seemed to be missing like 15% of a story... i don't like that. i like structure in my stories and films. ie i hated a history of violence as it was missing too much.

the_gooch Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 i was just talking to absinthe about this. they are definitely going to justify the back story and the viral stuff in another film. i mean it only makes sense since they took the time to put all of it out there. it would be a real let down if they didn't and i have enough faith in them to pull it off, especially since it just broke a box office record this weekend, beating star wars.
