Literally nobody asked for a Cloverfield sequel as the first one REALLY sucked.

I liked Cloverfield, and will be looking forward to this one, I read that this film is not a direct sequel, but its more a blood relative to it, but set in the same universe.

-It is very common knowledge that the monster “Clover,” was a baby.

Clover’s mama is home, and she is angry

Pretty impressive of JJ to keep this under wraps until 2 months from release.

Agreed. Although it helps Star Wars probably runs pretty massive interference...

Cloverfield's a good movie the first time you watch it because you have no idea what's going on and you feel like you're with the characters. Second time? Nope. That's when it gets aggravating, and the shaky cam really hits.

The only thing I'm really worried about this movie is if they're stuck in that basement the whole time.

I think it's actually a conspiracy theory whacko bunker...

Man I remember the hype for Cloverfield, did the movie live up to it? maybe not but it didn't ruin it, it just didn't show us enough of what actually was going on to judge if it lived up to our dreams. This was done on purpose though so yeah I guess a bit of a disappointment for that reason but not necessarily bad. I never felt compelled to watch the movie a second time though but I guess I will before watching this movie.

Now this sequel looks to be about the same as the first, I'm already very intrigued but I'm also guessing they won't actually show us much of what is actually happening outside, even the tagline suggests that it's more about what happens inside the house. Still it looks fun enough and I can't believe this was a secret for so long, would love to get more surprises like this instead of 3 year waits like with Batman vs Superman.

Wow I was just thinking about Cloverfield a few days ago and wondering if they'd ever make a sequel or another movie anyway.

This looks cool but only if they actually show what's happening and legitimate shots of the monster.

I hate the whole "less seen the better" thing. No, that only works to build up a movie. By the end...show us whatever it is. Actually show it. Not just glimpses you have to pause either.

Genius. It's like all the classic Godzilla movies right?! Nobody's interested in the parts where cool monsters trash the city while humanity tries desperately to destroy them. You watch those movies for the interpersonal relationships between inconsequential bystanders. Don't you?

that's why the original Godzilla is still one of the best.

I watch it for the monsters, while the humanparts add to the story and flesh it out more.
