that movie was kind of dumb!

it wasnt dumb. okay for the clues i believe there is 2 monsters because when the oil rigs go up into the air and fall on the boat there are 2 many pieces for 1 monster to throw. also just a hint. maybe the oil spiilll caused the monster

Actually I think the 'oil spill' was the monster. What I'm trying to figure out is if this is going to related to the hinted at sequel.

i have an idea from the blog video it has something to do with the sequel

Those videos are nothing new. There have been links to them on the IMDB boards for months now.

she said something about december 9th....cloverfield 2 release date maybe?

Those videos have been around for a VERY long time. They were out before the movie came out on January 18 2008. I'm guessing you haven't been keeping up-to-date with the viral marketing...

you should change your name to Mr. Retard

True that these videos have been around for a long time now, but why would Mr. D get this in the mail NOW?

These are old, I've seen a lot of these before the movie came out. Still, it's nice to see the Oil Rig destruction again XD

Those videos are Easter eggs and can be found on the DVD. I think you have to go into "scene selection," and choose the screen with scenes 13-16. If you wait a couple of minutes, the hidden chapter 17 will pop up. Once you click that, you'll have access to all sorts of goodies (including a Slusho commercial). Also, if you look to the upper right side of the oil rig as it collapses, you can vaguely make out a/the monster swimming away. Cool stuff!

Jesus Christ, stop being such arrogant jerks to him. Grow up for crying out loud.

I think the sequel for Cloverfield will deal with another monster...that would be sweet...Something dealing with tentacles...It would be awesome if they made it seem like all the oil spills in the ocean created the evolution of a huge sea monster

It's still news to people who haven't seen them yet, so f*ckin chill out.

All this is old, OLD, stuff. I watched all the videos before the movie even came out- well the second one wasn't as long, but still old though. I don't think we'll learn anything else about the monster until the next movie comes out- and even if then.

I, and many other horror geeks I know, are seriously diggin' all the Cloverfield related info that makes its way onto the web -- every little scrap! So PLEASE, Mr D, nevermind the haters and whiners; they obviously do not appreciate the value of a seriously fun, old school, full-on, 4 star MONSTER MOVIE! Long live Clovie! And keep us loyal BD fans abreast of all the new developments, we're counting on you! Keep up the good work! ;->

I honestly can say that these clips didnt help in making me want to see this film anymore now than before. The whole hand held camera idea was worn then when "Blair Witch" stole my $10.00. The only thing that could possibly help in the sequal is that the half wit blonde in the last clicp finds her death ... I myself know of chuckleheads like this in my real life and i to desire the thought of watching them get there throats chewed out by sewer rats. ...God Bless

I have seen the "News reports" before but not the Blog and Commercial (being in UK the dvd hasnt been released yet) Isnt there Something about the Secret Ingrdient of "SLUSHO" (which is found on the oceon floor)being a source of mutation. (making things basically MASSIVE) - also on the Slusho site there is a caption in Japanese saying "slusho makes my tummy explode....) could this reference exploding bodies!? Also did the company make the monster or diturb it: Was it the satellite crashing or drilling which distrubed the monster

I didnt understand what the commercial and blog had to do with it please let me knoe how that ties in with "cloverfield" isnt that the name of what the case is filed under???

I wanted her to show her boobs.... that would of been good...It would be so cool if you turned into a monster.... Clover ruled the 2nd one will rule too. FUCK YEAH

Actually, a lot of people do appreciate any new tidbit of information, especially when it relates to a great film like 'Cloverfield,' which had one of the best viral campaigns in recent memory. But, that said, for anyone who followed the movie closely in the months prior to its release, these videos are not news and it's frustrating to log onto the site and see such a prominent display that suggests the origin of the monster has been revealed. I would like nothing more than to know more about the creature's origins, and hopefull ythe sequel will delve deeper into that. If you followed the viral campaign, it was clearly suggested that a compound found in Slusho (the same organic matter sent to the girl in the blog video) produces euphoria and other side-effects. And it was also clearly suggested that the company responsible for Slusho was deep-sea drilling into a part of the ocean floor previously untapped to recover as much of the compound as possible, which some people theorized might have caused the creature to awake. Personally, I think the creature was a direct byproduct of pollution from the drilling rigs, ala The Host, whose creature was spawned by the dumping of old embalming fluid into the city reservoir.

You Lied to me. None of this is new. damn it

Here's what I'm hoping: I'm hoping that the 0bject crashing into the sea in the final scene is a UFO, because it makes it a lot easier to accept the idea that Clovie's an alien lifeform, as opposed to a mutation or a deep sea creature we never knew was there. I hope the sequel focuses on the same monster -- or his pissed off momma, but the same species, anyway -- because if this is to become 'America's Own Iconic, Giant Monster', as JJ Abrams discussed, I'm pretty sure he's gonna need to star in more than one film before he officially qualifies for American Icon status. And I hope they maintain the film's contemporary, hand held camera, YouTube-ish origins, because I, for one, found the whole thing to be much more immediate and believable as a result. It had this aura of seeing-is-believing, unbridled terror. And it left you feeling like, if this really happened, THIS is exactly the way it would look -- as something captured by the man in the streets. I think it was a damn smart film and I'm pretty sure it's one of those movies that people will still be talking about 20, 30, 40 years from now. It was a tale for our times, a product of our global climate, and a brilliant reflection of our collective national angst. How many films can even come CLOSE to achieving all that?!?!?

CLOVERFIELD SUCKED...end of story.

The monster looks fucking stupid too...what a waste of time and money.

disanti's is apparently the only opinion in the world that matters... yeea.... just STFU ass no one gives a fuck about your opinions.

Oh, I'm sooooo sorry I have an opinion on something. Please forgive me for being critical. What I meant to say is I love hand-held camrea movies that don't focus on a monster but some douchebag looking for his girlfriend while all the action is somewhere else. I surely didn't want to see a monster that actually looked somewhat cool, I'd rather see some gangly armed vagina faced CGI travesty any day. This one ranks up there with the American Version of Gozilla....blow it out your ass Maelstrom.

Was their 2 monsters?

Cloverfield was a great unique Film!!!!! Some people didn't understand the story and failed to keep up with the Movies Viral Marketing! "Clover" is not an Alien He's an underwater Creature that was awaken by the Tagruato Satellite that fell from the sky!!!!!

Did Anyone notice at the end of the movie when they went back to the coney island part if you look very closely in the backround over the ocean an object falls from the sky i think that proves it was from space

Cloverfield was sent to earth by other life forms that plan on taking over our world and in part two different monsters will be sent and we will see the aliens in charge of this

good flick. the motion ade it a little hard to follow but that almost adds appeal because seriously look at all the stuff dedicated to finding out what the monster was and looked like. i enjoyed it and i just hope they don't go all gay like blair witch two and take away the hand held action.

clovie is not an alien. for one the thing that fell from the sky was part of the Tagruato satellite called chimpanz3. Also, it fell in the water on April 27, according to the date at the bottom of the screen. The footage of the oil rig being destroyed was at the end of december.

also, did anyone notice at about the 2min 10 sec mark of the english broadcast just to the left of the screen there is something floating in the air. the camera pans over just a bit "by accident" and you can see it. At first I thought it was the helicopter giving the footage from the air, but at second glance it doesn't quite look like a copter.

im gonna look for that

It does indeed appear that something is swimming away from the rig as it collapses
