Found: Rob from Cloverfield, walking down Main Street in Park City Utah. Turns out that actor Michael Stahl David has a film at Slamdance called The Project. Glad to see that Rob made it out alive.
Disclaimer: I apologize in advance for anyone who might think of this as a spoiler. Those who have seen the [...]

Hasbro has opened up pre-sale orders online for a 14″ Cloverfield monster figure that includes two interchangeable heads (calm and agitated), 10 parasites, one Statue of Liberty head and hours upon hours of fighting off dust-mites. Obviously, an extremely jelz Godzilla is subbing in above because no images have been released by the company, [...]

This is a forum for all of you piling out of Cloverfield this morning, afternoon, evening and throughout the weekend/month. Did you think J.J. Abrams’s and Matt Reeves’s film was a modern day classic? Did the monster meet your expectations? Did you expect [that] to happen? I’ll be chiming in with my review shortly. This [...]

Paramount’s 2008 is off to a spectacular start. The J.J. Abrams-produced Cloverfield has delivered a monster opening day of an estimated $18.25M, and it will easily coast to both the All-Time January 3-Day record and the All-Time 4-Day MLK weekend record. The Friday number is a tough call because there’s no clear answer about where [...]

“Look! What is that?!….Why, it’s the Hollywood System!”
Haven’t seen the first Cloverfield yet? Well, get to it kiddo, because Cloverfield 2 has already been discussed, according to the probable smash hit’s director Matt Reeves.
“Only time will tell. While we were on set making the film we talked about the possibilities and directions of how [...]

Before I begin, let me say that I am not one who hyperbolizes my thoughts on movies that I like and dislike. I prefer to lurk and watch other people do that. For months, I have purposely avoided the viral marketing for Cloverfield because I didn’t want the campaign to interfere with the actual movie [...]

If you haven’t seen Cloverfield, than read no further as we’re about to enter spoiler territory.
Where did the Cloverfield Monster come from? Japan? The ocean near an offshore drilling site (as hinted by the viral)? Not so according to director Matt Reeves, who supposedly told Film School Rejects that an easter egg within the film [...]

I received an email from long time /Film reader Glenn D, who was lucky enough to attend “Rob’s Party” last night in New York City. Here is his report:
First off, the setup and execution of the party was a pretty poorly crafted event. I understand the premise and it was great to see the [...]

The star-studded premiere of Cloverfield (Paramount) was last night (Wednesday, January 16) at the studio lot on Melrose. Young Hollywood was out in full force, including everyone from Lindsay Lohan, Patrick Stump and bandmates from Fall Out Boy and, of course, the cast of MTV’s The Hills (with LC, Audrina and Whitney not giving the [...]

I saw it! It’s alive! It’s Huge! I just got home from a screening of Cloverfield, the JJ Produced monster film which has hogged the online hype since July. I don’t have the time to do an extensive review of this movie, as I need to catch a plane to Park City for the Sundance [...]

/Film Reader Flax points out that a new photo has been uploaded to the Cloverfield viral website 1-18-08.com. The new photo features what appears to be a destroyed oil tanker, possibly off the coast of New York City (just a guess). Something is blurred out in the photo, I wonder what it could be. Cloverfield [...]

Since the first Cloverfield reviews have hit the web, fans have started creating art (some of it, pretty incredible looking) based on the descriptions of the Cloverfield Monster. Because this is potential spoilage, I have posted the photos after the jump.

Over at U.S. News & World Report, assistant managing editor James Pethokoukis has transformed into a sort of hedge fund swami, predicting that next week’s Cloverfield will be the most profitable film of 2008. The key word here is “profitable.” With a reported $30 million budget, average marketing costs and countless [...]

/Film reader Ryan S sent in this photo of the beheaded Statue of Liberty from the Paramount lot. I’m being told that the statue is part of the promotion for the Cloverfield premiere, which will be held on the lot next week. Very cool. Check out the photos after the jump.

Breaking News: On January 17, 2003 a devastating earthquake hit Japan. This event was caught on tape by two American filmmakers. But it wasn’t an earthquake. And it wasn’t Cloverfield. It happened five years before. Like, duh. No, it was…MONSTER. And, oh yeah, it hits stores on 01-15-08.
