During a new interview with producer JJ Abrams, he talked a little about what the latest is on Paramount's Cloverfield sequel, which has already been put on fast track by the studio with Matt Reeves behind the camera once again. Inside you'll find a transcript and video of the conversation, which carries a few little teasers.
Tagruato transcribes: Another Cloverfield? "There is an idea that has come up that . . . we're exploring so we'll see if it's worth doing then hopefully we'll get a chance to do it."
Handheld again? "I think that to some degree I think it can be a good thing. I think that there are a lot of movies that seem to be doing that so I think that you know, no gimmick is good once its been done again and again and again. So I feel like you know, I loved it when I saw it in Blair Witch and I thought how cool to sort of take that idea and kind of do a monster movie through that kind of prism. But you know at a certain point it's the kind of thing probably wears out it's welcome you know, for some people probably while watching the movie, you know what I'm saying?"
Another monster? "A monster, yeah, another sort of a interesting way in but we have some cool ideas and Drew Goddard, the writer and Matt Reeves the director have sort of cooked something up so we're . . . you know hopefully that'll get a chance to happen."
yea, and the most interesting news to come out of that was the dark tower bit, its in the early stages, which to me means its in the same place it was this time last year when they announced that they got the rights.
im guessing its on hold until after Lost, and that the Dark tower will take over for Lost when it ends, cause these guys can kind of do the same thing they do on lost with the dark tower so it works for everyone.
JJ says "you know" more than Tarantino. And that's frightening. On the other hand, I think that as long as it's the same guys working on it (which it is), they can make a worthy sequel. While I did like the novelty of the first film being POV from the handheld, I think if they do it again they should incorporate cinematic footage. Too many damn people complained about it being handheld.
i like the pov and i hope they use it again and another thing when asking questions arnt you supposed to put the microphone to your mouth then to theres i could hardly here her ask the questions
