UPDATE: Cloverfield Characters revealed in trailer!
UPDATE - Five Days Before Opening, New Trailer
This is going to be the greatest monster movie ever, and it's not even out until 1-18-2008. It's a secret project with the codename Cloverfield, is produced by J.J. Abrams and Matt Reeves is directing, and has this website: 1-18-08.com , and can be seen with the movie transformers. But I've made a new trailer based on the clip. It's got a starting soundtrack that will make your blood curdle.
And what about clues like this website: http://www.ethanhaas.org ?

JULY 18th UPDATE
Some have written that this information excludes the idea that this is Godzilla. But there's nothing in it to indicate that's the case. But I was correct about one thing: New York City is damaged considerably.
From The New York Post :
"A few weeks ago, the movie was shot in Coney Island on the blocks contained by West Eighth Street, West 17th Street, Surf Avenue and the Boardwalk. (picture here)
"A small crew, including Abrams (co-creator of "Lost") and director Matt Reeves ("Felicity"), along with up-and-coming actors Blake Lively and Mike Vogel (both from "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants") came into the park with hand-held video cameras.
"They shot several scenes at Deno's Wonder Wheel, a scary swinging Ferris Wheel in which patrons ride in cages as they look out over Brooklyn. They also went on the Scooter bumper cars, played some ticket-stub games in the arcade, and rolled some skee ball.
"A member of the Vourderis family, owners of Deno's Wonder Wheel Park, gave authorization to the film crew to shoot there.
"It's about an alien that wipes out all of New York City," says one of the owners, who wants to remain anonymous. "The footage is taken the day before everyone dies. A bunch of kids come to Coney Island with a video camera. The movie is a flashback to that day.
"It is reported that they have only a $30 million budget, not a heck of a lot for a monster movie. They also filmed a few scenes in front of the now-defunct and chained-up B&B Carousell.
"The crew steered clear of Astroland and The Cyclone, but shot some scenes on the Boardwalk by Nathan's and the booths selling hot buttered corn.
"They told me I could be in the movie," said Eric Gonzalez, an 18-year-old kid who plays the freak in the paintball game "Shoot the Freak."
"I wanted to be in it so bad and I gave them my number, and they never called. I got new shoes, a hat and a whole new outfit."
NY1 reporter Roma Torre, on the other hand, was lucky to get plucked to star in the flick, and shot "a lot" more scenes than the one you see in the trailer.
"This whole thing was cloaked in mystery," Torre told The Post. "We weren't given any names. They made me sign a nondisclosure agreement, and I'm not supposed to talk about it."
"It was so mysterious that I had no idea that this was going to be a big-budget film or an independent type movie. So I was shocked to hear about the trailer and the buzz it's getting. I'm hearing from friends across the country. It's fun.""
NEW UPDATE
Cloverfield and Slusho: Slusho's not a clue, it's a product placement.
UPDATE:
Well, not only has J.J. Abrams wrote that the Ethan Haas site has nothing to do with his movie, his staff's placed a new third photo on the site at www.1-18-08.com . This photo has a weird connection -- in my view -- between this film and the events of 9-11. It features two women walking in what seems to be a kind of haze and covering their mouthes. This scene reminds me of the aftermath of 9-11, when people in Lower Manhattan were covered in a kind of soot. A photo of the three picts is displayed here above.
With that, you can add the fourth Cloverfield photo , which has a miliary solidier looking one way, with people seemingly running past him. It's all blurry.
The picture also -- in my opinion -- implies a movie that depicts a level of destruction on an enormous scale. If you put together the explosion in the trailer with this photo and reflect on 9-11, well, what you've got is the decimation of the island of Manhattan.
Moreover, the three pictures are in time sequence: 12:01 it's the party; 12:36 AM, it's the horror, and at 12:48 AM the aftermath of a destruction of something. I think buildings. Or given that it's a bright light and we're talking the dark of night, it may be the middle of another explosion. Whatever the case, it's not pretty.
Yikes, what's this story about?
http://www.theparasitemovie.com - is a fake site. It has nothing officially to do with the movie, and leads to a forum on "tossing games."
