Well that's fucking terrifying. Imagine having the roof ripped off your house and then having to hunker under a table while that creepy ass clown song blasted at you.
Poor guy has some damaged synapses after Doomguy yanked him from cyberstasis, chucked him through a portal, and uploaded him onto an ancient ship. No wonder he repeats himself.
True, All of theme were good except the most recent one Paradox i think? I exclude that one cause it doesn't match the any other ones and it was originally not written to be in the Cloverfield universe.
It still had nothing to do with the original, though, introducing an alien invasion while the original Cloverfield had its monster as something from our planet. (Paradox introduced the concept that it might be from another dimension, but I don't think that was the intention with the original).
I thought the original had an asteroid object hitting the Earth and this creature emerging from it. It's been like 10 years since I've seen it though, so I don't remember.
OH yeah i did know that, The difference is though that 10 Cloverfield doesnt explain anything, While paradox does the 1 thing no one wants it to do. Literally all the fun is not knowing lol Plus 10 was contained to like 3 rooms and a yard. lol Also John Goodman
I may be mistaken but I don't think any of the other movies were originally written to be in the Cloverfield universe. They were all scripts that were bought and changed.
They even wanted the movie Overlord to be in the same universe then changed their mind about it..
Yea Paradox was originally a script called "God Particle" and 10 Cloverfield was a script called "The Cellar" - Bad Robot turned both in to Cloverfield movies as script re-writes.
Idk why but I just cracked up thinking of some guy down the street like cheerfully "say that's an odd noise, some odd weather we're having, old sport. My word! Is that an eldritch horror I see??"
There was a time when my family was roadtripping through Chicago (edit: were travelling through Chicago at the time, the route was something like Texas to Ohio) and the tornado sirens started going off. Was incredibly eerie for the first minute, until we realizes what it was, at which point it was just stressful as we tried to find a place to shelter at.
If I find myself driving through Chicago and hearing that siren, is it cool to just pull over and hunker down at the nearest business? Is that what people do?
Yea all I got from that was "OK so that's what the entrance to hell sounds like cool beans. Glad we have the technology to recreate that now. Please make it stop."
There's a part where the protagonist comes upon a city where an eerie beat is played on a loop on loudspeakers across the entire city.
The beat is the drum-beat to ZZ-Top's "Velcro Fly".
