hell no that is what makes the movie so good... if you and your friends were running away trying to live and shit how much explanations would you really have? seriously think about it.... did you want a scientist to magically appear and start explaining where the monster came from and how to kill it etc etc?

i thought it was great as it was.... fools running and trying to live while they happened to have a camera on them.... good film

It leaves a lot to the imagination, that's what's so great. That is why people will be talking about this movie for months to come.

We are so used to finding out the entire plot based off the trailer so that we can determine whether or not we want to see a movie that we don't know what to do when there is actually some secrecy held within a movie from start to finish.

it's a good point, but if there's no payoff to such things, as a fiction reader/comic book reader/sci fi fan it really is not worth it for me. the trailer just strikes me as so pretentious that if it's not paying those seeds off then it's kind of like 'fuck off' you know?

anyway, can someone show me full real images of the monster?

i think it's not trying to be a sci fi movie though. it's ASSOCIATING with those genres for SURE, but i think the people behind this movie are trying to go in another direction that hasn't really been explored and treaded through that at least two films do every summer. lol.

[Tanjential]

i see what you're saying, but i guess it just looks kinda pretentious to me

[Don Jacob]

i think you'd like it man, peep it.

[Tanjential]

i'll probably make it a blockbuster night at some point

Just came home from pre-premiere, dope ass movie!




SPOILER
What bothered me the most was Hud's annoying ass, he was talking too much bullshit during the whole shit, lol
And damn, that Beth must've been a good fuck for him to run all the way up to her again..
I'd get the fuck outta there, damn.

I'm feeling we're going to see a sequel

when they're at the brooklyn bridge and hud is filming the statue of liberty with no head etc.. there is another guy who is also filming, and hud and that guy film each other for a second or two. matt reeves did an interview saying if they did a sequel, it would be something like that.. so do a movie of the same attack but following a different group of people this time

i like that idea better. who gives a fuck about that one chick. plus it's cool that the two people died together I THINK.

Yeah, that would be great!

Did anybody else notice at the last few seconds of the movie after Rob & Beth die, they show footage of them at Coney Island. Well when they're looking at the water, you can see something crash land into the water at the right side of the screen.

Damn, missed that too, guess I'll have to get it on DVD

[Doggystylin]

I found it entertaining. Not an amazing piece of cinema but it was good for what it was.

[Elano]

[Drop A Gem On Em]

Ahhh it was ok. the dude wit the camera was annoying ass hell. haha, u seen that part right after the helicopter crash, he picks up the camera and looks up and that big ass monster was standin over him?

i was like  "AWW HELL NAWWWW!!" LOL.

[Don Jacob]

^ in your mind or out loud?

[Sparegeez]

My friend and I were really debating on what the thing was. He claimed it was a robot, but I'm pretty sure it was a monster. Someone please tell me who's right on our debate.
