It was cloudy and rainy today. I made my daily trip, but didn’t stay long because of the weather. Then I pretty much vegged out. I did straighten up a bit, and then spent some time cruising the ‘net, read some blogs, and worked on CerealWednesday.com (which if your connected to me via Twitter is what your seeing there). I was doing well until I came to Episode XVII. I just couldn’t do it, so I skipped it… but just for now. I’m not used to taking things one day at a time, as many of you may know, but there’s really no other way for me to go about it.
So anyway, I got this e-mail from this guy through the site, and unfortunately I got it AFTER I saw Transformers. He basically asked me to record the trailer that they are showing before the movie for a new film by JJ Abrams. Needless to say, besides the fact that I would never digitally record anything in a theater (I have people for that dontcha know), I totally got the message too late. However… through the power of search engines… here is a recording of the “mystery” trailer.
Now since I saw Transformers with KC, who happens to be a LOST fanatic, I immediately heard from him that it’s either a LOST movie or a new Godzilla movie. I don’t watch LOST to be totally honest with you, but I have seen plenty of Godzilla movies… and yeah… I could totally see Godzilla throwing the Statue of Liberty’s head in a fast ball. She is kinda stiff ya know and probably would give him the cold shoulder.
Well it turns out that supposedly its a movie called Cloverfield, and it isn’t necessarily about Godzilla himself… but a monster movie along those lines. Ontop of that, they’re supposedly shooting the movie using home cameras as if it was all being documented by the actual participants in the movie. That’s a real novel idea.
Apparently the trailer isn’t the only thing going on. There are two sites, Ethan Haas Was Right and Ethan Haas Was Wrong that are rumored to be attached to the project as well. Supposedly if you solve a puzzle you get some “raw” video footage that has appeared on YouTube already… but then was quickly taken down.
Right there smacks of cover-up… which will undoubtedly generate a buzz.
I just hope all this hype doesn’t lead to a let down. Anyone have any other theories?
