According to the resident TGT genius, they aren't getting concussions. It's all an act. This is probably all a ploy to get the drooling masses to feel sympathy for the players.

Speaking of which...those things are awesome.Quote:

Interesting!
JJ Abrams calls it a "blood relative" to Cloverfield; which was a movie I really liked. It has John Goodman in it too so that's definitely a plus. They had secret names for the movie to keep it's origin a secret.

This is a good article breaking things down on it too: http://www.slashfilm.com/10-cloverfi...cloverfield-2/
I read that article last night. Pretty interesting.
It sounds like this might be a thriller that was adapted to be set in the Cloverfield world. I wonder how much (or if) it advances the story or mythology from the first movie.
I'm concerned it won't be a pure sequel like many who seem to be excited are hoping for. IIRC Cloverfield had some clever pre-release marketing so I wonder if/what this one will do.
So maybe it is a Misery-type story in the Cloverfield world, but at the same time, Goodman was protecting them from something as she shits her pants at the end of the trailer.Quote:

An Abrams project set in a hatch? There has to be some LOST/DHARMA hidden references in the movie. If I caught it correctly, the first two numbers typed in the jukebox were 4 & 8.
My gut is this is all within the first 20 minutes. But with Abrams, you never know.Quote:

My prevailing thought while watching was that I wished modern-day special effects existed 30 years ago for the original.
Agreed on the first part. I think you just saw every funny scene in the movie. My interest in the movie went from low to almost none.Quote:

The original Ghostbusters was a classic!
I'm sure most agree with you but I just didn't think it was particularly good. Just because it's a blockbuster from my childhood doesn't mean I give it any automatic accolades. In reality, to me, it's lame.Quote:

I thought the first was a classic, the second a huge letdown. However, I caught the second one on cable a few months back and it wasn't as bad as I remembered. This new version might make Ghostbusters II a lot better in hindsight.
Movie of the yearQuote:

I absolutely loved Star Wars as a kid. The movies don't quite hold up as well 40 years later but the universe they are in is cool. Everyone likes a classic good vs evil story. The new trilogy sucked for the most part as it centred on cgi and had lousy writing. This last one was very good and you don't have to be a Star Wars fan to enjoy it. I was only really bothered by a couple things: they re-used some plot devices of earlier films which wouldn't bother those who haven't seen them. And the good guys are always super skilled and/or lucky at times but that's star wars.
I think anyone can enjoy this last film and most newbies would probably say it's the best star wars movie made.
I have no wordsQuote:
