Hopefully... It'd kinda suck if, like, through out the entire movie we don't ever see it. o.o We will, though.

Just a site that a lot of people have been trying to pick up clues on. The only thing that annoys me is that the picture with the guy holding the pan doesn't have a date or time on it. ._.

I wanna see it in theaters, but I don't have anyone to go with. ._. I'll just wait for it to come out on DVD.
Aww that sucks, I'd go with you if I could :[ A movie like this has to be seen in the theaters imo.

I remember that site, after a couple of minutes you can hear the monster roar.

I read somewhere that we'll definatly get to see the monster according to the producer or director, so no worries there. Besides, a monster that big is kinda hard to miss
There's a really short clip of him in the 5 minute preview where he walks between the skyscrapers.

The first-person style is supposed to add realism, and in reality, in a situation like that, the camera would eventually run out of battery power, or just get messed up beyond use from being dropped/jostled/hit/whatever. If it does manage to stay intact I somehow doubt that the battery power would really hold out long enough for the conflict of a monster tearing the **** out of NYC to be completely resolved. This would certainly not be a problem for traditionally-filmed movies, but since the director seems to be shooting for realism, I have a very strong feeling that this movie will be ending rather abruptly.

Despite this, I'm sure it's going to be great. At least, I hope it will be- all the buzz and secrecy is certainly getting my hopes up.

EDIT: YouTube - The official Cloverfield trailer

Trailer that was first shown in theaters. To generate curiosity and publicity, it didn't even give the name of the movie- just the release date.
Wow, aren't you glad I showed you that trailer?

Anyway, such an abrupt ending might leave people unsatisfied, I think the movie might end with a short story about what happened afterwards. But I hope the guy finds some new batteries to replace the old ones of the camera with or maybe even have an extra set with him (however unlikely)

The monster by itself is very mysterious, we know nothing about it or where it came from or why it's here. We only know that the government knows something about the monster and has named it "project cloverfield"

I wonder if the movie will reveal it's mysteries, I hope it does.
