Cloverfield prequal trailer arriving soon? - mrblue - 05-04-2010
There's been much online buzz about a certain trailer arriving with prints of Iron Man 2. J.J. Abrams is said to have created the trailer. But what film is the trailer for?Well, it's for something Abrams himself is not directing. Rather, he's going to let someone else sit at the helm. Drew at HitFix.com speculates what we'll see is a teaser trailer for Super 8 which may or may not be related to Cloverfield, which Abrams produced.Vulture is now reporting: Insiders familiar with the trailer tell us that it shows a bunch of kids who are shooting a movie with a Super 8 camera in the seventies or eighties. When they develop the film, they notice that there's an alien creature in the frame. Our sources also say that Super 8 is absolutely connected to 2008's Cloverfield (possibly a prequel, but not a sequel).Interesting. A prequel, though? Wonder where they're going to go with this. Perhaps the footage is from the '70s/'80s is something that is worked into a Cloverfield sequel?---shocktillyoudrop.com

I'd like to see a Cloverfield 2, not a prequel. I mean, how the fuck could a prequel even be pulled off properly? Are we going to follow the monster through his underground caves?

Funny that you mentioned that because that's exactly what might happen. If you followed the viral marketing as closely as I did you'll find out that the Cloverfield monster attacked a drilling station (Chuai Station) before it made it's appearance in New York.

There is a whole story surrounding T.I.D.O. wave and two characters known as Jamie and Teddy. Although I do not care for a prequel, if done correctly, it could be good.

Well sorry to burts your bubble Freddyfingers but jj abrams is reporting today that the secret trailer has "nothing" to do with cloverfield. In my opinion he could be covering it up now that ppl have already guessed what its going to be.

I don't know Mr. Blue, JJ is the master of keeping things a secret... I have a feeling this is a prequel or sequel but JJ has something up his sleeve.

If its about kids using a camera and record footage of aliens I'd honestly assume its related to cloverfield and if its based in the 70s/80s it has to be a prequal of some sort. Or could be just something new and orginal from him.

Here's what the secret teaser is about: "According to various descriptions, the secret teaser arriving in theaters this weekend shows a pickup truck jumping a train track and driving toward an oncoming locomotive. Onscreen text: "In 1979, the U.S. Air Force closed a section of Area 51. All the materials were to be transported to a secure facility in Ohio ⦠From Producer Steven Spielberg and Director J.J. Abrams ... " The truck hits the train and both fly off the track. Sparks! Explosions! Abrams-style lens flares! We zoom in on one non-destroyed train car and hear something pounding the interior walls trying to escape. More text: "Next Summer. It Arrives ⦠Super 8.

****SPOILERS****
I didn't even read what you typed there because I don't want spoilers. All I know is he is collaborating with Steven Spielberg. That's all I care to know. I have an assumption and I don't think it's a Cloverfield movie but... dude... spoilers.

It wasn't even attached to Iron Man 2 but goddamn it... now I have to scroll past your post every time I come into this thread. Perhaps I should just not read it until after.

There really wasn't a teaser before iron man 2?

No there wasn't. I think it was a rumor and wasn't really confirmed, however some sites have the trailer because it was leaked. Honestly, since it is a Spielberg and Abrams collaboration... I think it's the long awaited 'Area 51' project that Oren Peli (Director of Paranormal Activity) was going to do.
