Spockydog Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Blimey. There's a sequel to Cloverfield coming out in March. They kept that under wraps.Even though I loved the first movie, I'm glad the sequel will not be another found footage thingy.Also, John fucking Goodman! Yay!Trailer here.

RumHam Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I wish more movies had trailers like this, instead of just trying to condense 80% of the film into two minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonesy Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Seconded. That was dope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nictarion Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Looks intriguing. I've had a thing for Mary Elizabeth Winstead since Scott Pilgrim Vs the World. Add in John Goodman and monsters this could be worth checking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiDisaster Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Well I'm intrigued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leofric Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I wish more movies had trailers like this, instead of just trying to condense 80% of the film into two minutes.Totally agree, between this awesome teaser and knowing it is a sequel to Cloverfield is all that is needed for me to want to see it in the theater.

Howdyphillip Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I also applaud the trailer... It was perfect to get me to want to go see the movie, while not giving the whole thing away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HexMachina Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 That was about 5000 times cooler than I expected it to be. Very much this. I liked but didn't love Cloverfield, but this teaser is perfect and makes me eager to go see this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veltigar Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Surprised by the amount of love for Cloverfield. I thought it was a shit sandwich myself. The trailer does look rather neat, so who knows Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calibandar Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I'd love a Cloverfield sequel, have hoped that would happen for years.Great film.This does look notably different, but hopefully we will go beyond the single room at some point during the film.Trailer definitely intrigues.

polishgenius Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Surprised by the amount of love for Cloverfield. I thought it was a shit sandwich myself. The trailer does look rather neat, so who knows I appreciated Cloverfield for its ambition in trying to do something different, but the seasick-o-vision and necessarily stupid decisions by the protagonists on occasion meant it wasn't a great film. It'd have done far better to keep the idea of focusing on one group of normals trying to survive, but ditch the found footage and just keep the camera very tightly focused on the group for similar, but less blurry, effect.Still, this looks interesting.

RumHam Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 http://screenrant.com/10-cloverfield-lane-connection-sequel/“This film was originally made under the names Valencia and The Cellar for Paramounts Insurge division (a subsidiary for films made for under 5 million dollars like The Devil Inside), and when Paramount closed it down, this movie (shot and completed) was thrown out to the wind and orphaned. Paramount bought it back up and had Dan Casey and Damien Chazelle do some re-writes so that it would connect to the Cloverfield universe and they went back and did reshoots and add-ons in March 2015 in New Orleans and L.A.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veltigar Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Ah, the gall these people have in slinging crap towards us is magnificent. Fuck you J.J., you're eating away at that SW credit you earned rather fast.I appreciated Cloverfield for its ambition in trying to do something different, but the seasick-o-vision and necessarily stupid decisions by the protagonists on occasion meant it wasn't a great film.

The King in Black Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Whaaaaaa.....Come on man. This is bullshit. I knew something was wrong the second I figured out Valencia - a dark, real dark movie version of The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt - was the same as this movie. Damn it, John Goodman and Mary Elizabeth Winstead deserve better.Cloverfield is the kinda film that isn't super entertaining as you watch it but when you think about it after you realize that there were a lot of cool things in it. That shaky cam was an atrocity though.Boy, when Hollywood wants a cash grab, they sure know who to call.1-800-J-J-A-B-R-A-M-S"Thank you for calling the office of J. J. Abrams. For confusingly complicated monster of the week shows, press 1. For indulgent homages to earlier movies, press 2. For illusory spinoffs, press 3. For 3Fast2Trek: Spock's Stag party, smash the keypad with your palm, now."Courtesy the Internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RumHam Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 In retrospect we should have known it wasn't a proper sequel when the normally secretive Abrams released that statement calling it a "blood-relative." I'll still go see it. The Colverfield connection was never the main draw for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Writhen Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I thought Cloverfield was just ok. What is the point of having the first film be POV but not the sequel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
