So I don’t know if you know, but there is a huge amount of viral information out there on Cloverfield. You can see most of it here, as well as some stuff here on Slusho, which has some information, which tells you where the monster came from. I won’t say where, because it ties in to the final scene of the movie [spoiler at the end of the post].
This has me enthralled. J.J. Abrams is pretty much a genius because of how he put together this entire thing. Seeing the movie without the viral info is a completely different experience than it is with it [both still awesome].
So when I read this article, my imagination started to go wild. The monster is coming.
I’m pretty much obsessed with Cloverfield and all this viral stuff.
The final scene depicts two of the characters on Coney Island, videotaping themselves in front of the ocean. If you watch the far right side of the screen, you’ll see something fall into the water. A company in Japan said that it was their satellite that fell. This is what woke the monster, which was at the bottom of the ocean, dormant. Read up on the different viral stuff to learn more.

I loved Cloverfield, then came home and spent a few hours online researching how the monster got into NY and loved Cloverfield even more.
