Anyone who has seen Transformers probably noticed that mysterious teaser trailer during the previews. Raw camera footage of a party. Everyone feels vibrations and then evacuate to the rooftop. The building is located in New York City. Once on the rooftop, they see massive explosions tear through the city. The Statue of Liberty's head hits the street right in front of them. It ends with people running and screaming. There is no title for the movie. It only shows “Produced by J.J. Abrams" and says “1.18.08" and flashes the credit block of names for about a half second and that's it. Apparently this is a top secret project called Cloverfield that J.J. Abrams is producing and not directing. Also, it seems that most of the film is going to be shot using home video cameras, as if from the point of view of real people who are experiencing an attack on New York. Thats about it, I can't find anymore info on this one. They're keeping this very secretive. Edit: Found the trailer online, it wont be up for long. |

It sounded like there was a monster going after them. Monster movie, attack on NY, I don't care as long as its entertaining. |

Wow pretty cool trailer. Would've been better if the video was decent quality, but at least we got to see it. Pretty cool effects in some of the explosions.

Yeah I saw this too. There is a current debate going on about what a guy said in the trailer. Either
"I saw it, It's ALIVE, it's huge" OR "I saw it, It's a LION, it's huge"
I seriously doubt that anyone would make a movie about a giant lion so it's probably the 1st one. I bet it's a Creature Feature though. If it's anything like The Host it should be good. Does anyone remember the American version of GODZILLA? |

"Ugh" pretty much sums that movie up. I hope this turns out a little better than that. Matt. |

Hey, has anyone thought about what the monster in the film could be? I think there's a good chance that it is none other than the mighty, mighty Cthulhu! I mean, I know Tori Spelling made a movie about it recently, but what else is tough enough to just rip the head off the Statue of Liberty? |

A new URL is now up, 1-18-08.com, featuring a screenshot and a date stamp. The domain was registered by the studio on March 30th, long before anyone knew about the movie. |

So far, the "monster" is only being referred to as "The Parasite". |

The plot thickens:
When you solve some puzzles on Ethanhaaswasright.com you get access to some video messages. Something about the new world order. Now, if you go to youtube, someone put up the messages, but Paramount took down 3 of the 5 messages.
A date is mentioned. August 1st.
When asked, Paramount reps claim they've never heard of the film.
Exciting! |

Ho ho. That's pretty cool. But they'd better knock off this secrecy crap pretty soon and give us an official announcement. This kinda stuff is gonna get really old, real quick. No matter how mysterious something is, we can only care for so long.

I think it's a genius marketing ploy to give us videoes and then take them down after 24 hours. This means 10% will have seen 'em and 90% won't have. That means 90% will WANT to see them. Curiosity is what gets people in the theater.

It took me a while, but I managed to complete all of the puzzles at the Ethan Haas website. Now I'm very interested. |
