Waaa! People have interests other than my own. WAAAA!
Lets see... socializing with others about what about mutual interests
OR
Trolling message boards to tell complete strangers that they have no lives.
Seems to be a clear cut case of the pot calling the kettle black.
Cloverfield monster??!
lame
I just got and email from Pete Konig himself this afternoon. Here what he had to say about the photo above:
"Nope...haha...nice try though."
So there you have it -- it is not the real Cloverfield monster. But then again, we knew from the beginning that it probably wasn't. I'll be interested to see though, how close we really were. Sneak Preview screenings start on January 15! If you get a look at the monster, email me at neil@filmschoolrejects.com and let me know.

It's only semi-bipedal. The legs are much shorter than
the arms which have hands of uneven finger lengths,
(One finger/claw on both of the front hands is longer than the rest).
It seems to walk on it's wrists. You dont see the face until about
the halfway point of the movie when the gang is fleeing
into the subway. It's eyes (we only saw two) are
black, and on the sides of it's head are membranous
sacs, that later in the movie, you get a very good look at.
It has teeth that interlock much like an crocodile.
It has a large tail with 3 fins on the end.
about a giant monster destroying NYC, because it doesn't seem REAL? I mean, are you
serious? It's not a documentary, it's a movie about a monster.
dark dwarf for the warshade
don't know who said it but he/she was right on....
Just wait, you all will be terrified, it's awesome, in every way shape and form.
This is the monster.
Just a thought.
There were not 2 monsters. The main monster when viewed from the air reminded me quite a bit of Golum from LOTR in that it was gangly. It is not 100% bipedal as the monster here is. It is not armored on the back nor have horns as this monster and other fan art experiences I've seen have. I did not notice the smaller set of arms but it could be there. Its head was humanoid, but had huge teeth outside the mouth like a crocodile might. It did have some sort of air/breathing sacs on the side of its head. It does not EAT people, it does taste them - the final scene has it trying to eat Hud but then it spits him out. He is presumably not food for the creature, although the creature tried to taste him.
Overall I found the movie really cool for the tired old "monster destroys city" genre. Keeping the monster hidden during the film helped the suspense, and its funny even now there are very few sites with pictures of the actual monster. They did a great job keeping things secret. The one thing I did find kinda dumb was how the monster showed up everywhere the 5 New Yorkers ran. It was outside their apartment, then it was in the water and destroyed the bridge, then showed up near Beths, then finally ended up in central park with them. This is incredibly bad luck and just not believeable. It would have been much better to have alternated threats more, and replaced one or two of those scenes with the parasites attacking/chasing rather then have the beast itself continually follow them around. Other then that, really great flick with lots of suspense. I especially liked how the audience (which is normally full of annoying, rude, loud twits) would go so silent as to hear a pin drop during certan scenes - like trying to hear beths message, and when the monster looked down at Hud. It was obvious to me they were quite involved in the story.......
Good job JJ! I liked your movie well enough that here I am on the Internet the day after I saw it trying to google for an actual good picture of the monster to take a 2nd look because it was so intriguing..
