The Facts of Cloverfield
Created on: January 24th, 2008
It seriously had less plot than Godzilla, and was more resistant to attacks than the Godzilla monster. Literally nothing could hurt it, it could live anywhere, and do anything. I bet it could fly and live in space if there was a second movie.

Oh my god, I hope someone got fired over all those facts! By the way there is a reason it's called a monster and not an undersea lifeform, because it's a monster! Besides the most realistic fake drawing "leaked" by the movie company shows its body as that of a mutated seacow, and that alone would destroy most of those facts.
"I bet it could fly and live in space if there was a second movie."
LMAO. The intense unrealistic nature of the monster ruined the submersion into the movie for me. Even for science fiction, it was laughable and ridiculously outlandish in terms of breaking the laws of physics/nature/biology. Even Godzilla (King of all Monsters, right?) gets hurt and takes some sort of damage, this thing would have survived the planet exploding.
By the way you might want to check the splash radius of that assumption. If it was falling from space it would have to survive re-entry or just entry which is possible being that it's a monster and the only plot line for the movie so it can't die by any means. It would also have to travel over 100 miles straight down after entering the earth's gravitational pull meaning the impact at which it would hit the water, if it didn't atomize the monster on impact, would make a wave so large as to destroy everything
That isn't the monster. It's supposed to be a satellite. It relates to the story behind the viral marketing for the movie in some vague manner, it has been confirmed by Abrams to be a satellite. This is another knock against the movie, all the viral marketing stuff was ultimatelty just to produce hype, because none of it factors into the "plot" whatsoever, theres really no point in it at all.
Fireballs are falling from the sky, people are dying, but let's stop, stand still & calmly get cell phone pics of the Statue of Liberty head. A 22-year old girl gets deep lacerations all over her torso from a monster parasite in a dark subway...but calmly talks and smiles about the whole thing a few minutes later. Every time they grip you into a sense of reality about what you're watching they turn around and snap you back into the fact that you're just watching a poorly written movie.
The idea of an awakened near-invincible prehistoric monster = THE INHUMANOIDS. Yes, lame 80's cartoon and toylines are being covertly and outrightly (Transformer, GI JOE) adapted for major motion pictures. No surprise who's making a Cloverfield monster toy...Hasbro, makers of the Inhumanoids some 20 years ago.
