was amazing.
I'm thinking that "Cloverfield" is a title Bad Robot is giving movies that have a mysterious negative occurrence. Nothing that happened in the first movie, I feel, is even going to be in the universe that this new film takes place in. I hope I'm wrong, though!
Some of the theories are wild now lol
Super 8 monster is somehow related to the Cloverfield monster, John Goodman's character is this kid Super 8:
He is now older, obviously. Super 8 took place in 1979, the kid could have maybe been 12-13 a during the film, and he would now be almost 50. Goodman looks older than that because he is, but I wouldn't say this theory is impossible Cloverfield monster and Super 8 monster do have design similarities.
Something about Cloverfield gets people thinking some crazy shit haha
It seems to be pretty specific with his facts.How credible is this?
This film was originally made under the names Valencia and The Cellar for Paramounts Insurge division(a subsidiary for films made for under 5 million dollars like The Devil Inside), and when Paramount closed it down, this movie(shot and completed) was thrown out to the wind and orphaned. Paramount bought it back up and had Dan Casey and Damien Chazelle do some re-writes so that it would connect to the Cloverfield universe and they went back and did reshoots and add-ons in March 2015 in New Orleans and L.A.
This is a cash grab by Paramount so that they could make some quick bucks off of this film(which probably wouldn't have made a lot of money in its original non-Cloverfield incarnation). They are trying to spin this into something its really not. The budget is only 5 million dollars and they are releasing it in IMAX to make a little extra dough.
Also take into account that no one from the original cloverfield is working on this(aside from JJ Abrams, who was really just responsible for pitching the first movie to Paramount) and The original film was very much Drew Goddard and Matt Reeve's vision.
I also have the 2013 script for The Cellar, and I see no mention of the monster anywhere in here. Pretty much every scene from the trailer is in the script and there is no mention of a monster. The climax of the movie is:
I don't know if anybody has been following the possible ARG aspect of this. But within the past few days some cool things have been happening. First of all the company who sells swamp pop has been sending customers orders that include random puzzle pieces that seem to be from an Eiffel Tower puzzle. And today some really cool things were discovered which can be found here https://www.reddit.com/r/10cloverfi...piling_all_the_discoveries_made_today_in_one/
I should watch super 8
I should watch super 8
I don't think there are many. Maybe that the bomb they dropped to kill the monster also destroyed the planet or a lot of it making it unsafe to go out there. I could have sworn JJ Abrams confirmed the monster was killed
Sorry if this is old news, but John Goodman's character worked at Tagruato. Interesting...

Huh, it says he knew of issues with their two satellites. Do you think that's why he began building the shelter, because he knew something was up with the satellites and why they crash landed? Could it be he thought an alien mass was attached to them, causing him to start building?
"Members of Tagruato's elite corporate board were greeted with a rare surprise yesterday as founder Ganu Yoshida visited their emergency home screens in a simultaneous teleconferencing broadcast. After much discussion, Yoshida revealed that kaitei no mitsu, the special Slusho! ingredient lovingly known as "Seabed's Nectar", had been approved by the American Food Association
Ganu Yoshida left with much fanfare today as he boarded his private Tagruato jet that will fly him directly to New York city in the United States. He will be meeting with acclaimed CEO Glen Warner, owner of BevVo, the largest privatized water manufacturer in the world. "Glen has many ideas for distributing Slusho! through pre-established public waterways," said Yoshida, "I wanted to come here myself to discover them."
Yoshida will spend four days in New York before continuing across the United States on a tour of potential Slusho! manufacturing plants

I don't know, it also talks a lot about bringing a new Slusho flavor to the west.
Taken from the Tagruato website.
So basicallythe new Slusho is monster juice...

What's interesting about that is that at the end of Cloverfield they show a satellite crashing into the ocean (prior to the monster appearing). While it isn't specified where the monster appears from in the film it was mentioned by Reeves or Abrams that it originates from the ocean. So this might actually take place before the events of Cloverfield!?
If you look at the investor relations section of the site, the quarterly results only go up to 3rd quarter 2007.

Explains the mid-2000s look of the site.
I think this movie will take place in real time. It says Employee of the Month for February 2016, meaning John Goodman's character is still working for Tagruato, and not in the bunker yet. It also says he's been with them for 7 years, so if it is real time then he started working there after the events of the first film.
But he's employee of the month description mentions "diagnosing transmission complications with two of our governmental clients’ orbiting satellites" and we know a satellite crashes before the monster appears. That to me would imply that he was working there during the events of the first film. But if he's been working there for 7 years up to now that would start he's employment in 2009. But if this film has been in development for 2 years and that's a minor error 7 years from when the first events occurred would place the events in 10CL up to 2014 which would also make sense.
Am I reading too much into this? I think the hype is getting to me.
That's kind of the whole point and most of the fun, yes? lol
I freakin LOVE when they do ARG for their projects. The only disappointment is knowing from previous events that they will barely use any of this lore directly with the shows/films.

That might be WHY he was hired. The lost one satellite, there are most likely more. To prevent another from falling maybe they hired John Goodman. Sounds plausible to me.

Because that website was made back before Cloverfield was released. I'm pretty certain it's exactly the way it's always been, but someone got lucky with the new Employee of the Month URL. That's why the URL can't even be found on the site itself.

Would be insane if true!
what did it show?Well based on that Superbowl ad it looks like this movie is going be a bit bigger than just inside the shelter.

I disagree. It matches the early reports of the movie. The dark parts outside was when she gets in a car accident, and then Goodman brings her in. I think the dark outside scenes were all from before he brings her in
^edit: it showed MEW getting in a car accident and new scenes in the bunker. Also shows a bright light behind a farm house or something
