After catching the midnight showing of cloverfield my friends and I were not disappointed in what we watched. My friends were not hyped into the movie like I was and were still happy with how it went. With gasps and laughs and screams the theater seemed to be happy with the film. The monster itself was a sight to see and well worth the smoke and shadow done by the director Matt Reeves during this roller coaster of trailers and viral marketing.

You get to see the monster from so many angles you wonder how you're going to see this giant beast from next. Don't blink tho or cover your face with popcorn or you will miss something just a warning.

This film is supposed to feel as tho you found this ****fied video of the events that took place in New York so says the disclaimer at the start of the film with military and government code shown on the big screen.

Yes the camera moves, but you have to keep in mind that this is supposed to be a film from the perspective of the human, not the monster. Ever once wonder in a Godzilla film or other how much damage it's doing to the people below? You don't go knowingly to a black and white film and then complain about there not being color. I'm saying if you really hate movies that aren't attached to a steel beam and 100% smooth. I say fine don't go see this film, but you will hear about it.

Best thing of all. It eat people, now this isn't a spoiler since the director told people this way before the movie's release but man is it a breath of fresh air to see a giant monster eat people. Instead of the normal uh oh this species of animal wondered into unknown habitat.

If you like giant monsters and films pushing for outrageous phenomenon's to be in a real world environment. Go see it.

If you want to see something fun go see it but don't think this will change your life and inspire you into a new franchise.

I like it.

p.s if it was **** wouldn't i be ranting about how i regret wasten time since the transformers movie researchen this?

Japanese magazine Shone Ace posted the first installment of a manga based on J.J. Abrams' new monster flick, Cloverfield, to its website last week. The tie-in manga, titled Cloverfield/Kishin, follows the story of a Japanese boy named Kishin whose fate is somehow tied into the apocalyptic events taking place in New York City. Artist Yoshiki Togawa will draw three more installments of the manga, with the next one slated for online release in late February. There aren't any English translations available yet, so for those who are curious, here's a brief synopsis:

The first chapter opens with Kishin helplessly being picked on at school. The bullies tease him about his mom being a weirdo (we find out she is dead in a flashback sequence). Just as a pretty ****ate helps Kishin out, giving him back his stolen pants and untying his arms from behind his back, the school emergency alarm goes off. But that doesn't mean he's off the hook yet -- the bullies decide to lock him in the gym storage space, snickering: "Isn't that what you're supposed to do in an emergency? Go somewhere safe when you're in danger? It's dangerous outside, with us here."

While this is going on in Japan, a cargo shipper at sea is anxiously waiting to dock. He has a baby on the way and can't wait to get home to his wife. Just as he's being reassured that they're not far from shore, a mysterious set of eyes starts to emerge from the sea. The last sentence reveals that Kishin and this monster are somehow tied together.

___________________________________________

Now whether or not this has a tie in with cloverfield is still unknown. No one really knows if this got the ok from JJ and he has a hand in its story. The only things that are related are Tagruato corp "A company that has made billions on ocean oil drilling plants and their NEW discovery SLUSHO!!!"

It is thought that Tagruato is responsible for awakening/making/harvesting of this monster. Ganu is the founder of the company and did loss his mother after she left on a journey to find the worlds best ingredient for a drink. However went missing.
