Update WTF 02

2008-01-19T18:14:00.000-06:00

I spent all day trying to find videos with the monster...
can't find it yet...
but i found some other things like the Facts of Cloverfield
just some answers...

"

FACT ONE: It Came From Japan Producer J.J. Abrams took his son to a toy store in Japan and saw rows and rows of Godzilla toys. Feeling that the U.S. lacked a giant monster of its own, he decided to a make his own creature feature that would be filmed entirely through the point-of-view of the people on the ground, running for their lives.
FACT TWO: "Felicity" Fans Are in for a Shock Abrams picked his childhood friend Matt Reeves to direct the film. Together, they created Felicity, a show about young New Yorkers looking for love. But while the most exciting moment on that show was the time Keri Russell cut her hair, in this movie the entire city gets hacked to pieces.
FACT THREE: This Poster Doesn't Lie As a kid, Abrams loved Escape From New York. But he felt cheated that the image of the Statue of Liberty's head lying in the street on the movie's poster wasn't actually in the film. Abrams finally got to see it on the big screen in the teaser trailer that appeared before Transformers last summer.
FACT FOUR: They Never Meant to Call It That To keep the movie a secret, the project was given the codename "Cloverfield," after a street near Abrams' office. The filmmakers had planned to release the movie as Greyshot, the name of a key Central Park location. But the temporary title spread through the internet so quickly that crew decided to keep it.
FACT FIVE: Will There Be Anyone Left for a Sequel? In the exclusive clip below, Rob (Michael Stahl-David) and Beth (Odette Yustman) run to catch the last helicopter out of Manhattan. Do they make it? We're not telling. But Director Matt Reeves has stated that if they do a sequel, it might take place during the same monster attack, but seen from another camera.
"

I will post more stuff later....

Update WTF!

2008-01-18T17:32:00.000-06:00

long time, no post...

OK so...
looks a lot like this

I will have to wait for people with camera cell phones to go watch it today and film the part where he looks into the camera at the end, so I can post it here...

they dont show it being killed.... cant tell,
but at the 1-18-08 they show parts of the dead monster

do yourself a favor and go watch the movie, cause it is just awesome!

I didn't post anything here anymore because I got tired of the viral tie-ins

at wikipedia for Cloverfiled you can read JJ Abrams idea for the monster

"JJ Abrams conceived of a new monster after he and his son visited a toy store in Japan. He explained, "We saw all these Godzilla toys, and I thought, we need our own [American] monster, and not King Kong, King Kong's adorable. I wanted something that was just insane and intense.""

so it is a new one.

as soon as someone posts a pic or vid of the monster I will put it here...

some vids that I think show more than before

Slusho! Newspaper is the Nikkan San (Japanese Daily Sun)
"Commenter Christian has determined that the Japanese newspaper is Nikkan San or Japanese Daily Sun, a free paper from Hawaii. You can see the the japanese text from the website matches the text at the top of the newspaper pages. I'll assume JJ Abrams picked these up in Hawaii while filming Lost.
The Japanese Daily Sun is the most popular Japanese Language free newspaper in Oahu. It is distributed to more than 200 locations including supermarkets, major tour desks, hotels, restaurants, retail stores and 24 publication dispensing racks on Waikiki’s main street, Kalakaua Avenue. The Japanese Daily Sun provides local Japanese residents and visitors from Japan with current up to date news covering sports, politics, health, entertainment, economy, a classified section and lots more."

Not much today...

at Project Cloverfield, I found this:
"IESB.net is claiming to have some possible “leaked spy footage of 1-18-08,” though I’m not entirely convinced. If you feel like giving it a look, you can view the video at IESB.net.

I’d take it with a grain of salt. Oh, and beware of IESB load time. That site sucks a lot of ass so chances of it crashing your browser are very likely. They need to hire someone to give them a new CMS because whatever they have now, takes forever to load."

Cloverfield Set Videos and Photos

"Cloverfan over at Unfiction has posted video and pictures of the Cloverfield set in New York city.
Cheese, Chocolate, (Sledge)Hammers, and Slusho! all make an appearance, but I didn't see any oven mitts.
Apparently, filming continues tonight - so look for more to come! And if you're in the area...head on over and get me some exclusives!
You can see the videos over at Veltliner1978's YouTube page. There are currently SIX videos!"

Slusho filming in NYC under the production title "Cheese."
"They're filming in NYC as we speak on the Lower East Side on the corner of Stanton and Orchard and between Rivington and Delancey. Apparently they started filming a few hours ago and will "probably" be there all night. Strangely, the production title they are using for the shoot is "Cheese." Crew members have been seen wearing Slusho T-shirts (the same ones sold on slusho.jp) with passes that say "Chocolage Outrage" (on of the Slusho flavors). I'm sending my own spy out there now, but Cloverfan at unfiction forums has taken many pictures and video already. In the last video below you can see what looks to be Mike Vogel and one of the actresses from the teaser (Odette Yustman?) Director Matt Reeves is also present as noted by his director's chair with the Slusho logo. Michael Bonvillain looks to be the cinematographer (as he was for Lost, Felicity, and Alias)."

Update 15

2007-07-27T13:18:00.000-05:00

According to cloverfieldparasite there is a huge poster...

"What you're seeing is the OFFICIAL teaser poster. Notice that there isn't a tag line. Official teaser posters were released to the press this morning and then handed out to attendees of today's Comic-Con panel as part of the ultra-nifty swag bag.
Word on the street is, tag lines to come are: "Monstrous", "Barbarous", "Ferocious", "Furious", and possibly "Terrifying"...plus other adjectives as well. I'm only guessing, but "Sweet", "Sensitive", and "Cuddly" didn't make the cut."

And talking about "Monstrous", "Barbarous", "Ferocious", "Furious", and possibly "Terrifying", I found more about it at Project Cloverfield:
"JJ Abrams announced at Comic-Con that there is “a series of four posters” for Cloverfield. Each one has a different tag line - MONSTROUS, FURIOUS, TERRIFYING, and BARBAROUS(?). Collect all Four! Trade with Friends! I WANT! I noticed there is a Bad Robot logo on the bottom left corner of the new poster! Thanks to High Voltage Media for the FURIOUS image! : TERRIFYING poster available for sale on eBay, cloverfieldclues.blogspot.com"

Read: Six more months of ARG?

Also new FORUM

that is all for now...

Update 14

2007-07-27T00:10:00.000-05:00

so...
It is not called Montrous, but the poster is right... so far

at http://cloverfieldparasite.blogspot.com:
"It's about 30 seconds long, or less, but it's pretty great. Mad kudos to 1_18_08 (LiveJournal) for getting this and posting it. Best post all day.
http://1-18-08.livejournal.com/7349.html?view=58805#t58805
Does anyone else hear him say "a series of 4 posters"? If so, does anyone have them? Where are they, I must have them. I must have them all!"

=) now I wanna see them.

Update 13

2007-07-26T17:35:00.000-05:00

It was Monstrous, but then it wasn't

OK, Cloverfiled Clues has it.
Let´s start by the fact that the poster had a High Res version

Kristen at CloverfieldParasite.blogspot.com had the first photo

Detail 01 (statue) --- Detail 02 (city)

"What is this thing?? Notice the:
• Huge gash marks where the head was torn off, and on the buildings
• Huge round hole through the city
• Trail marks in the water
• Helicopters flying over the city"

and then

Entertainment Weekly Confirms "Monstrous" Poster

"It's the same poster as the Monstrous poster that was leaked Tuesday, except it doesn't have a title. The fact that their poster doesn't have a title might be because it had not been officially announced yet, or maybe the movies title is NOT Monstrous!
This does confirm that the poster is real however...now we just need a name!"

J.J.'s Mystery Movie: Secrets revealed!

and then...

According to Cloverfiled Clues is it notMonstrous!
"JJ Abrams gave a quick speech after the "Cloverfield" trailer was played at Comic-Con, then quickly left. Alex Billington from FirstShowing.net provided a transcript:
“I want a monster movie, I've wanted one for so long. I was in Japan with my son and all he wanted to do is go to toy stores. And we saw all these Godzilla toys, and I thought, we need our own monster, and not King Kong, King Kong's adorable. I wanted something that was just insane and intense. It's almost done shooting and I watch dailies and I'm more excited for them than the trailer, which has had an overwhelming response. We have 6 months before this comes out. We're going to have a whole bunch of things, a whole bunch more." He said a full trailer, more clips, full posters, and much more will be coming out over the next 6 months, including the name, which he will NOT reveal today. You think we'd call it Monstrous? No…"
Well that's it... the Paramount panel is over! No more news :("

Read HERE how the poster got out...

And other news like:

Greg Grunberg will or might be in the movie... He was on Alias, Felicity, Lost and Heroes.

Update 12

2007-07-24T16:26:00.000-05:00

Is it Monstrous?
Since this morning I saw all over the place a blurry photo taken with a cam phone...
and it looks very much like it. The statue, the scene, etc...

"The title or tag line at the top clearly reads "MONSTROUS", and although you can't read it, the bottom corner it says "1-18-08". Also notice that the head of the Statue of Liberty is missing!"
Source

Also TheMonstrousMovie.com is not working yet, but it is registered to Paramount to.

More photos (blurry) HERE
More on it HERE
and HERE
HERE too
HERE....

and there is a movie called MONSTROUS at IMDb, but I cant get that website loaded so I can link... so I will do it later.
------> I cant find it anymore... the link I had on my favorites now leads to the main page...go figure.

and a guy says this:
"there is also this with the same poster but in hi-resolution. I'm not sure if its been mentioned before or not, but its the exact same poster but its called Apocalypse instead and is a higher-res than the blurry photo
http://i16.tinypic.com/4l8yqhf.jpg
although i would say that the text on the 'Apocalypse' poster looks less realistic than the 'Monstrous' one but the 'Monstrous' one is all blurred so would be fairly easily made to look realistic"

here is that picture

but it may be a fake... (I think it is tho)

that is what I found so far, please comment to tell me if you find anything so I can add it here...

I have seen ppl talking about this NY Post issue etc.... but really, maybe the ppl from the movie tell us one thing now, and maybe it will change later, so we don't discover right away what it might be.

Hey guys

Analysis: Fourth Photo Revealed on Cloverfield Website
Confirmed: Slusho.jp is a Cloverfield Viral Website

Slusho Zoom website is weird... some say it is not a fake, maybe has some hidden clues.

Cloverfield: Behind the Scenes Footage and Photos

This is the guy's comment:
"Footage I shot on the night those bastards from cloverfield where shooting on my street they where using a megaphone and kept evryone in the building awake for days they also fd’up the traffic like every other big budget movie does (who cares about those stupid taxpayer drivers?) this was also shot in the same location where prime is on the floor at the end of that movie."

Also I found HERE that ABZ3293.com and ParasiteMovie.com are really fakes...

Some say that Ethan Haas was right is not related to the movie and is really related to this game.

This is the coolest video ever, it is a spoof of the trailer...

Also, some things about the movie HERE (in portuguese)

At the 1.18.08 website you can see the images big and alone
1-18-08.com/images/pic_1.swf
1-18-08.com/images/pic_2.swf
1-18-08.com/images/pic_3.swf
1-18-08.com/images/pic_4.swf

At the IMDb forum of the movie a guy wrote his theory and I will put it in here because you have to register to see it, it is a very nice theory:
"If you look at the trailer you can see the number 3 being referenced to everywhere. The 63 degrees on the news channel, The 12:36, the 2004 ACE, numbers that are all dividable by 3. Last, but not least, you hear the thundering monster sound three times, each sound accompanied by a different event. Romans 1:18 &quot;For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness&quot; So what in biblical mythology has connections to the slew of references in the trailer? The three great monsters. In Jewish belief, Behemoth is the primal unconquerable monster of the land, as Leviathan is the primal monster of the waters of the sea and Ziz the primordial monster of the sky. 1) The first monster roar is accompanied by an earthquake (Behemoth) 2) The second monster roar is accompanied by a huge fireball (Leviathan, for it can breathe fire) 3) The third monster roar is accompanied by the flying Statue of Liberty head (Ziz). Not convinced? The guy who says &quot;maybe we can get a better view from the roof" has the Slusho logo on his shirt. Slusho is a classic J.J. Abrams icon, and it has appeared in both Alias and Lost, which are his shows. Slusho.jp has, by now, been confirmed as a part of the viral marketing campaign revolving around 1-18-08. Japan. Strangely enough, the character Rob, who is present in the trailer, was gonna fly to Japan a day after that party and the monster events. Let's have a look around on that site. Not all pages are accessible. But there is an odd feature about the pages that are available. The main page background is on land, the Downloads page background is on air, and the History page background is on sea. Furthermore, the six buttons on the main page cause popups of various animals, namely a Horse, a Whale and a Bird. Behemoth, Leviathan, Ziz."

Also found this

This is a cool resume...

And someone made THIS BLOG to sound like the ones from the trailer writing on it after the monster attack etc.... looks fake to me. is THIS also a fake?

This guy has a pretty good theory of what it might be. Which its kinda crazy but not impossible. Lost friends would love it.

The IMDb for the movie exists.

And as a fan, I feel bad for not remembering that the Slusho drink is on ALIAS! The video below made me remember.... (02:28)

This video is good too, I think this guy has some good idea about all this...

Update 05

2007-07-22T23:28:00.001-05:00

OK.. this dude has some good ones on 1.18.08
About the party on the trailer for the Rob guy, and he will go to Japan, so relations with the Slusho thing etc...
Also Slusho web site
"Now reading on the history on the site mentions a Noriko Yoshida.
Googling Noriko Yoshida leads to this: http://ccs.cla.kobe-u.ac.jp/GenBun/ny/ny.html
There is a picture on this decidedly plain-looking website. The title of this piece of art is: "The Beats of the Sea", in English, by Matisse. The picture shows what appear to be tentacles rising from the water. The picture was just put up the 10th of July."
"She is referred to as "Little Whale" on the Slusho site. Just a little trivia, Godzilla, or in Japanese, Gojira, originally got his name from an interesting story. "The name Gojira is a combination of the Japanese words for gorilla (gorira) and whale (kujira). The monster was so named because his original design was that of a gorilla-whale monster, which is recounted by people who worked on the film. After producer Tanaka saw the American monster film The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms (1953), he got the idea to turn Godzilla into a dinosaur monster. Despite the physical change the name of the monster was kept. There has always been a legend that Godzilla was named after a hulking man nicknamed Gorilla-Whale who worked at Tôhô, but this is untrue. Not only is there no evidence of this man even existing, but the various stories about him kept changing through the years (he worked as a stagehand, he worked as a PR man, etc.). According to Kimi Honda, wife of Ishirô Honda, the Gorilla-Whale man was just an inside joke between her husband and various others on the Tôhô lot--specifically producer Tanaka"
Little Whale and Gojira? Interesting enough for giant monster movie connections.""

"Also, I am interested in the "It's alive" line. If you saw a giant, obviously living creature, I don't believe you would say "It's alive!". But if you saw a giant moving mass of something that isn't regularly thought of or seen as living, I believe you would say "It's alive?!" in shock. Seems to make more sense in that context. I'd almost say this thing is made of Slusho.
Noriko set off to find the best, most tastiest ingredient at Sea, and behold, she was lost. Perhaps she found a monster making ingredient?"

Update 03

2007-07-22T23:27:00.003-05:00

if you take a look at the source code for Ethan Haas was right you will see at the end the text:
"war came, no longer from the elemental nor from the star’s rain of fire. The world was again remade, and the glow was as the coming of the sun upon the Earth. The children of the gods were again too few, scattered and divided and among them walked the ancients and those whose thoughts were not as to the towers and the marvels, but to the End and the destruction of the Earth and to the fires from which nothing could escape"

Update 02

2007-07-22T23:27:00.001-05:00

When you finish that game Ethan Haas was right you see a small symbol on the center ball and the letters CKROX, which took me to http://www.ckrox.com/ and has the image of a messy bedroom and on the mirror that says More to come soon...etc
Now since I finished the puzzle steps I have to wait until August 1st...
The cool thing tho is that the first thing you hear on the video (the ones you see when you end a puzzle) is the dude say "My name is Van!" and at the Ethan Haas was right you cant see the help link but if you type helpme after it like that you will see the same clues you get via email, when you click the first star on the website (the other is the alphabet, clues hello!), and the guy who signs it is Van! =P

and I also found the Slusho web site very weird too... you can see the Slusho logo on the guy's T-shit on the trailer at 00:50.

Also I was watching that damn trailer again and one of the guys at 00:56, isn't that Brad Cooper, who was Will at Alias? It could be, since J.J. Abrams uses the same actors over and over again...

Also one of the videos above show that huge smoke monster thing, that looks too much like the Smoke thingy for my taste, from that Lost theory about the book The Smoky God...

And the 1-18-08 website has a new picture... I think they will keep adding to it.

Update 01

2007-07-22T23:24:00.000-05:00

They seem to think this game is related, you gotta solve each puzzle to see the videos untill the last one at the end where you send your email so they can remind you of the huge black day of August 1st.

and remember 54312 means that the beginning is the end. =P and look to the stars and you will get it.
I spent 4 hours on this shit, and then after 4 hours of no blinking staring at my computer I found the solution online LOL, it did it alone, no cheats... but if you dint have time you can take a look. (it is more fun to do it yourself and put your brain to the test)
good luck!

Even some say that it is not related...we will see. Click on the video to open in a new windw or tab and read the comments on it... And also here you can see a email Abrams wrote (some say it isnt true cause he wouldnt use the word ass like that about his own stuff), so it takes you back to the start where it may as well be related...

my head hurts.

OK, first of: Everything that has a link, as always is bold, italic and green...

As we all know J.J. Abrams is the best. He can make you go hairless waiting for his damned episodes of Lost , or like in the past with Alias and Felicity. Well, he strikes again with the 1-18-08 trailer, see for yourself... The movie has no name, for now they call it the Cloverfield.

some people are already trying to decipher what is the monster in the trailer...

this last one is a typical fan, cause after a while watching Alias and Lost you get paranoid and start looking for those little things J.J. Abrams puts on the shows that you can get clues to everything else, if you are a fan you know what I am talking about...
