Whale/crab eggs perhaps?

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> Yes, I agree. There are no survivors in Cloverfield, and it does look like Slusho is tainted.

And Kirk seducing someone to do his dirty work ... who'd a thunk it?! ;-) He isn't a programmer, of course he got some hottie to do it for him. Though it would have been a twist if the hottie was actually an AI or something.

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @NefariousNewt: You're right. A lot of us New Yorkers do feel weird about it, and a whole bunch of us would be excited about Cloverfield if it had been set someplace else.

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @JDGiotta: I almost pointed out that this is Bana's second role where something science fictional happens when he gets stressed out. But I try to keep the morning spoilers really brief. But thanks for pointing that out!

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @NefariousNewt: Because NYC, D.C. are easily recognizable the world over. Noone is going to go see a movie where a giant monster trashes Rapid City, SD...

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @SurplusJ: I hated the title character. So. Much. She was such a dishrag. Such a nothing. She spent her whole life waiting. She was all about HIM from near-infancy to decrepit old age, and when he wasn't around, she just sat there waiting for him to maybe show up for three seconds. That isn't love; that's just sad.

The daughter? Now THERE was a fantastic character. Whole damn book should have been about her.

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @jennaw: Seriously? I think it's an *amazing* book. The movie shots aren't super exciting, but it's a fucking great book. If they ruin it, I will murder someone.

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @hortense: Yeah, I don't expect much from Cloverfield at this point either. It's starting to remind me of the Blair Witch Project.

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> Eric Bana is NOT how I envisioned Henry. I pictured someone nerdier, ectomorphic, and squinty... Like Rhys Ifans with a buzzcut.

Viva-La-Diva

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> According to one TOS episode ("Shore Leave"), Kirk was a nerd who was bullied at the academy. If the movie's writers are smart, they'll make that part of the plot.

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> So... this would be the second stress anomaly role Eric Bana will play.

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @Falconfire: I heard something about the monster being killed off early on, and then lice destroying the city. That may have been debunked, though.

The viral marketing is tired at this point. I don't have very high hopes. Maybe I just want to see another city get the shit kicked out of it for a change, too. Not L.A., I agree. But what about Orlando? A secret society of aliens living inside of EPCOT would be tremendous.

hortense

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @BeAgrestic: Maybe because L.A. doesn't have iconic structures/buildings. Remember "Independence Day?" Or "Armageddon?" I think watching the Chrysler Building, or Empire State Building, or Brooklyn Bridge collapse engenders more feeling than say, L.A. Coliseum? Of course, San Fran I think has enough stuff to make it a better target. Iwas just thinking that after 9/11, people would feel weird about watching NYC being crumbled to dust.

NefariousNewt

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> because L.A. is already dead.

mitchel_stevens

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @NefariousNewt: I think it has to do with what NYC symbolizes. Power, Prosperity, Greed, etc. But yeah, I agree with you. Why not destroy L.A.?

BeAgrestic

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> I hated the book Time Traveler's Wife -- putting Rachel McAdams in the lead ain't gonna make me like her lame-o character any more... though Eric Bana as the guy may help.

JennaW

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> Kirk seducing a woman? Nah! Never gonna' happen! That wouldn't be canon! ;)

NefariousNewt

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @BeAgrestic: Cloverfield looks like a good movie, but then I remember the hype over "Godzilla" and well... we'll see. BTW, why does everyone have to destroy NYC? Are they trying to beat Tokyo in the category "world city destroyed most number of times in the movies?"

NefariousNewt

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> @Falconfire: I think you're right. Too many spoilers have been leaked for me to think that Cloverfield would end any other way.

I am going to love reading spoilers every morning!

BeAgrestic

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> ITS A FAKE!

Though I do think everyone dies, its been proven the thing is a fake. For one thing the monster is not humanoid at all, its a Whale/crab thing from what other people who have seen a pre-screening have said.

Falconfire

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> "'The Sontaran Stratagem'(...) is written by Helen "Daleks In Manhattan" Raynor, so be warned."

That's the horrible episode with a hybrid Dalek/human. It's rumoured that her Sontarans have been gene spliced with Mr Potato Head.

]]> <![CDATA[Find Out Who (Maybe) Dies In Cloverfield!]]> Some of this is good news but Im still not sure about cloverfield. The previews make it seem like a Godzilla movie.
