God Particle is the 3rd Cloverfield Movie

[Andrew NDB]

I kind of wish they'd have abandoned alternate dimensions with this. Just stick with time, with an altered present. What do I mean?

OK, they activate the collider, POOF, they accidentally open a rift up 10 years into the past from which an alien invasion force enters. Simultaneously, the station in the present loses contact with Earth (because now, on Earth, they've been dealing with this alien invasion for 10 years). The crew (minds insulated from the change in the timeline since they're on the station, of course) has no idea what's going on, maybe has to contend with one of the alien ships investigating their station, and in the end have to make an emergency landing on Earth... and we see the planet is all busted up everywhere, the ships from the end of Cloverfield Lane buzzing around gassing everybody and Cloverfield monsters roving around smashing up everything.

That'd work and be a legit tie-in to everything, wouldn't it?

That's a heavy price to pay the piper. Of course, if your movie is legit bad (like "God Particle" was) to begin with... hey, why not.
