Super 8

cardew1975 · 05-06-2010, 06:57 PM

well , hopefully we can get a teaser there next days. any ideas of the plot ??

Deexan · 05-06-2010, 08:19 PM

Written/directed by Abrams, produced by Spielberg. Has a budget of around $35-40m and will share a "tonal similarity" with Cloverfield. There's going to be less shaky-cam (yay) and it will be released next year. "It’s a blend of the Star Trek director’s own love of sci-fi and the Close Encounters ethos of Spielberg’s early work."

Yeah, I don't like it either. I am not interesting to watch the movie.

ddel54 · 05-07-2010, 02:25 AM

Yeah so the teaser looks pretty cool but it sucks that It didn't play in front of the copy of Iron Man that I saw.....I was waiting for it and it never showed....For a sec I thought it was going to be about that Area 51 movie I was hearing they are making but I guess the movie will be called super 8. To me it sounds like a Gas company or a bigger and better version of motel 6.

Nick1988 · 05-07-2010, 02:42 AM

saw the teaser, and i have no clue wtf it is about.

Comingsoonfan777 · 05-07-2010, 02:59 AM

Having known nothing about this teaser except that it has something to do with a monster, I liked this teaser, it was pretty beast and deff had the whole theater say "What the f**k was that?!"

But.

The cloverfield original teaser beats this by...ALOT lol

jbailey84 · 05-07-2010, 03:44 AM

ditto 777. the Cloverfield teaser was and is way better than Super 8 but S8 was still pretty cool.

Deexan · 05-07-2010, 06:25 AM

Pretty average teaser. Meh.

Fanible · 05-07-2010, 10:54 AM

Everyone is going to orgasm over nothing again, aren't they?

Tornado · 05-07-2010, 11:03 AM

Only if everybody else is willing to complain endlessly about it again.

I don't remember that all. In fact, I just looked over the original thread, and it was pretty much nothing but people saying how intrigued and excited they were after watching the teaser, and trying intently to solve the online viral marketing.

I will follow this more closely than Cloverfield, though, because it's JJ Abrams directing it. Hopefully this won't be as vague in it's marketing for as long as Cloverfield was. IE, like how Star Trek's first teaser was overly simplistic, but it was nothing but more solid information from then on out.

DAN! · 05-07-2010, 12:27 PM

This is looking pretty good. Looks like it is an alien like thing. But with abrams directing and spielberg putting his name on it, I am excited. I like the little mystery. What sucks though is that this is so far away from being released which sucks. But I enjoyed cloverfield, and I am hoping for the best for this one.

Tolkien · 05-07-2010, 12:57 PM

I'm excited about J.J. Abrams directing this, for the most part.

Last time Spielberg put his name on something it was Transformers 2, lol.

Birdy · 05-07-2010, 03:58 PM

I have never in my life seen a trailer bomb in front of a crowd. But today I witnessed it. Personally there isn't anything to get excited about with the trailer. But I couldn't help but laugh at the huge groans & what the f**ks that came from the audience.

Blagojevich · 05-07-2010, 04:53 PM

WOW at the trailer. Dying to see what exactly busted out.

the elmo zombie · 05-07-2010, 06:31 PM

i'll see anything J.J Abrams makes until he disappoints.

FranklinTard · 05-07-2010, 08:29 PM

? mission impossible?

Tolkien · 05-07-2010, 10:12 PM

That was no where near a disappointment.

cardew1975 · 05-07-2010, 11:02 PM

part 1 and 3 were ok .

FranklinTard · 05-07-2010, 11:15 PM

mission impossible 3 is pretty awful. his tv editing style is also a problem for me, but star trek was pretty awesome. not gonna label him unmissable though.
