I'm off to Cloverfield... Right Now!

I arrived in Melbourne yesterday and see it's screening NOW.

I'll let you know how it goes.

This will certainly help alleviate the homesickness. :thumbsup:
 
I want a word-for-word description of the Star Trek trailer.

Forget about the fact that we already have one.

And make sure it is as filled with Trek fan propaganda as possible! I want opinionated judgments! Overreaction!

Don't let me down, now. ;)

Wait, I can't believe it (the teaser) hasn't gotten up on Youtube yet?

Sharr

Yeah, the fan reaction thus far has been boring!

I want protests, internet petitions, pinenotkirk.com, strife in the streets, cats and dogs living together.

PANDEMONIUM!

I seem to recall your last post said you wouldn't have time. Guess you're sleeping on boxes (but happy) in Melbourne tonight? :lol: Ran right to the theatre, didn't ya?
 
Oh I'm jealous, wish I could get that excited about anything these days. :)

Sure thing!

Oh, wait...

Just one slight complication.

Just one tincy wincy problem that prevents me from rushing back here, excited as a very excited thing, bursting at the *seams* to share some fan love regarding the trailer.

NOT. ATTACHED.

:brickwall: :brickwall: :brickwall:

They went thru trailer after trailer, ad after ad. As the lights dimmed and the Paramount logo flew onto the screen, I hoped against hope that they may have saved it for last and were giving it the special treatment given the Abrams connection.

Nope.

Nada.

Zip.

Australian Star Trek fans, heed my words! Avoid the movie Cloverfield at all cost... at least, until there is confirmation of the trailer circulating with the movie.
 
^ How disappointing! :(

I guess that means I don't have to watch it here in Germany either ...
 
Well, I just got back from Cloverfield (fantastic by the way, much better than I expected), and the teaser trailer was indeed attached.

Well, it was pretty much what has been described so far, welders, sparks, dirt, grit, googles, what appeared to be a saucer and nacelles, JFK, Spock: Space the final frontier...

Now, based on it though, I would be very surprised if any of the footage was in the actual movie, it was clearly just meant to convey the construction of the Enterprise (which you can tell by the lettering that appears - just).

And from the trailer it's hard to see what the ship will look like (if indeed this was a model of the actual ship from the movie and not just a mock-up), the only recognisable thing was the lettering on the saucer's hull, which is indeed the original font from the original show (yay... ish).

All in all, a decent trailer that gives even less away about the movie than the Batman Begins teaser (Man, was that a mind-fuck). :D
 
^Are you joking? It's showing in New Zealand... the country I left yesterday?

Hmmm.

If you'll excuse me, I'm going to leave this sterile cafe and go lay waste to Melbourne... Cloverfield style.
 
Starman, I thought you would have known: Never leave New Zealand!

Sure, she's a bitch to you when you're here, but if you leave... she will hate you even more. :D

Mwahahahahaha!

Enough of this childishness.
