19 Days and counting... a new CLOVERFIELD TV spot hits!

Published at:  Dec 30, 2007 7:49:59 PM CST

Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I like that we're all going into CLOVERFIELD without getting the whole movie in trailer and TV spot form beforehand. The newest TV spot that hit has precious little new footage, but just enough to not feel like a complete repeat. Give it a view below!

    by regicidal_maniac

    Cloverfield could possibly be my favorite film of recent times. Then again it could suck, but unlike the rest of these mooks I'm giving it a chance. I'll be there when it opens in Aus, which by the way is on the 17th, which with time differences is actually MORE than a day earlier than the States, so we'll probably be the first to review it.

    The campaign is a great exercise in marketing but I'm sick of it already and have no intention of seeing the movie. My prediction is this is going to be another "Snakes on a Plane" -- lots of internet hype, dismal ticket sales.

    A giant monster attacks Manhattan, eats people and destroys buildings then after its belly is full it sinks back into the harbor for a sequel. Meanwhile, the stars of this plotless piece of shit are all killed while the army tries to stop the beast with one tank and a bunch of army guys shooting at it with M-16s. There, I saved you a few bucks.

Since we know the chief characters are going to die who is there to root for unless you're a sick individual and just want to see this monster eat people and destroy things. It was truly fucked up marketing but I gaurantee you we won't see them make that mistake again.

    You're just going off movies you've seen before. The greatest movies are the ones that broke the mold. I don't know about you, but if I was sitting down to a monster movie, I'd want the monster to win. In fact, even if it was set in Dublin (where I'm typing from) I'd still want it to win! I'd even give it a list of people I'd want it to f***ing exterminate! It's been a long time since we've seen an apocalyptic ending in an American movie and I don't mean that as an offensive thing. It's different so why not?

    Cloverfield probably will be better than toast, but... I dunno. Toast with eggs and bacon is pretty fundamental. Can the Blair Giant Monster Project trump the very cornerstone of this complete breakfast? I doubt it can supplant this tasty breakfast treat.

    by laserpants

    The great thing about THE HOST is that it really is all about the family; thats what makes it so unique and special. The characters are likable and you actually really feel for them. I got a little choked up myself at one point. But then again its also very funny and very scary. Its like they took an indie drama/comedy about a fragmented family, and smooshed it together with a really scary / tense / suspenseful giant monster movie; resulting in a wildly entertaining, surprisingly smart, cool, emotional movie thats much better than it may seem to at surface value.
    This CLOVERFIELD thing looks pretty cool, no doubt, but I don't see it besting THE HOST. For one, I'm already completely annoyed by those who I assume are the main characters. But, again, you never know how it will come out. It could be really great/cool/smart and surprise us all.

    Sup Ron Paul Zealots? STFU!!

    by loser_guy

    Hey RP Fans, listen up...

    We're tired of you zombies bombing every message board, every forum, every YouTube video, everything online...it's not welcome and frankly it's getting a little silly.

    We get it - you love RP and you think he's the bees knees, fine. But what about everyone else who would rather 'choose' not to be inundated with your constant harassment? Aren't you the very people who stress personal liberty and freedoms? How about our right not to have to see all this RP SHIT sprayed all over the place? You think you're our protectors? You know what's best for us? Oh come on...

    You're backing a candidate who, despite your best efforts to harass every single person online and falsify every online poll, just can't get the support you think he should have. Why is that? Because the polls are skewed? Who are you to talk, because you've manipulated every single one all year long.

    Plus, all this talk of changing Washington and eradicating government waste? Sorry to say, but the President can't do that - Congress does. Guess what? Paul's been in Congress over 20+ years and he ain't got SHIT done. How can you expect a person who's not respected in his own party, ineffective at his own job, and by every conventional means incapable of not talking down to people to get anything done?

    Funny how most Paul supporters are made up of 9-11 Truthers, anti-tax libertarians and other anti-government groups. Plus, they'll name their fund raiser efforts after Guy Fawkes Day with colorful names like "Bomb Day" - glorify other terrorists, you freaky fucks. Sadly, most of their knowledge comes from either the internet or movies themselves, so you can't blame them for being paranoid.

    Nobody cares about RP guys, sorry to tell you that. All you're doing is pissing off people and turning them off even more to your cause. These message boards are NOT your personal property to defame and troll in, and frankly it's about time you split. RP doesn't even care about you, as when he loses the primary next month he'll disappear back into his comfy cove with the millions you foolishly gave him. Is he still a Republican of convienance this time? Because heaven knowns running as a libertarian wouldn't allow him time on TV to raise all that money. Good luck, and if Head Geek is reading this, please eliminate these psychos from this site - we would surely love to go back to talking about MOVIES again.

    Thanks!

    I'm a big fan of the comics and Tom Jane really grew on me. Punisher 1 (2004) was heavily flawed for story reasons and because John Travolta just wasn't right in it. Now the second one is trying to start it off again with a new Punisher and it's starting to look a bit messy for the Punisher franchise. Bad tastes are forming already in peoples mouths...

    by zerofun

    Now its starting to look like crap .. the more they show the lamer its looking. Whats the point of a monster movie if you don't see the monster (speculation), and it just looks too much like Godzilla, which is rivaled only by AVP and Phantom Menace for biggest SiFi let down in history. I hope J.J. doesn't F up Trek.

    It's OBVIOUSLY a VOLTRON movie

    by puddleglum

    Actually, they've pulled the old "red herring" on you guys by making this look like a "monster movie' with a mysterious monster when in reality it's.... a Magnificent Seven remake set in NYC. YES! This beast starts tearing up NYC and it's up to a rag-tag group of heroes to save the city and the World! Who are the "new Magnificent Seven"? The Lone Ranger Bullitt Snake Plissken Jack T. Colton Voltron (of course) Aquaf@g and Gumby. yes, you read that right. Fuckin GUMBY, bitches! And together they will rock that monster back to the ocean from whence it came. Hi Ho Silver, away!

    I dont really understand why people are kicking this movie

    by emeraldboy

    If Bad Robot and paramount came out and said our movie is about X. IF paramount showed the monster from day one ie only cut to trailers that gave the movie away people would saying" thanks a funking bunch paramount thanks, for ruining the movie fuckers" instead they kept schtum and we had to work out what the hell was going on. some people Hate that type of thing. I think they want to know everything about the movie straightaway. it gives them a reason not to go. But its not just cloverfield, the same this will happen over and over, during the rest of the year. I loved the indy gags by the way. and of course I will be there on opening day for that film. I am really excited about this summer and I have a feeling this one is gonna rock. I cant wait to See cloverfield. I am dying to find what is all about.

    since when did hype become a dirty word

    by emeraldboy

    Hype has always existed since Hollywoods inception. Its a bit too late in the day to start complaining about hype. Hype is used to pull people into things. Like the star of a Us Sitcom who who makes his or her debut in the west end or JK using it to kick off the publicity for her new book. or john Wayne using his name to promote the bomb that was the alamo to make sure that oscar voters took note and acted accordingly. I dont know where all this anti hype stuff is coming from. maybe its just another aspect of the movie business that some are using as a punching bag.

    Smoke Monster From Lost

    Hmmm fedrich519

    by emeraldboy

    you might be on to something. The same people who produce lost are involved and its written by Drew goddard. It has been reported widely that the slusho reference is from Alias. SO that begs the question is there a tenous link between alias, lost and Cloverfield. I think there is a week between this movie and lost returning to our screens. but In the UK lost doesnt return to uk tv untill feb. and you dont see the monster in lost either. intriguing. American studios dont really give a shit about the rest of the world. They think New York is the world, but there is a wider world outside the US. Not that american studios give a shit. really. That is why NYC will get blown up. The studios believe that NYC is the world.

    Saw Host

    by radio1_mike

    I liked Host, but there is no way it was scary. It's was a good monster movie and the family angle was great.

    Cloverfield... I am looking forward, I hope it is cool. I'd even accept an updated version Godzilla-type moster movie. My home run would be that this movie ties in with Lost and that this is actually happening in New York while our intrepid castaways are trying to get off the island. Or at least some kind of parallel universe that was affected some how.

    But I think the more I know about a flick, (behind the scenes, outtakes) it becomes a bit less of a movie experience. It might be fun, however it's also amazing how upest people on here can become over not seeing it yet. Get a date, go out on a Friday and see a flick and disect it AFTER you've viewed. And if Cloverfield sucks, well, then hey, there's alot of good movies out. No Country rocked.
