    Abrams has said its because the camera is turned on and off throughout the movie, conserving battery. I think he actually mentioned it was only about 90 minutes of footage over the 7 hours they were out there so real time I guess.

    At no point does it say they are going to Nuke New York and from all the information we got from the movie they didnt. For one as you say, the tape and recorder would not have survived. Plus we know that there were two explosions at the very end, one which buries the recorder along with Rob and Beth but they are still alive enough to say "I love you" then we hear a second explosion.

    No I think they have confirmed that there was only one giant monster in Cloverfield, people did wonder because it seems to change size througout the movie but they have explained that away due to Huds filming

    According to Abrams that monster was just a baby so its possible we'll see a mother maybe in the sequel. As for the broken bit of satellite waking it up, personally I dont think thats it. There was an oil rig that was involved in getting the "Slusho" secret ingredient which exploded after an oil tanker left there. Ive read this theory and its the one I currently believe which is that Clovie followed this oil tanker to New York and we know that an oil tanker is the first thing destroyed in the movie. The main thought it that the secret ingredient of Slusho is something to do with the monster and that the oil rig woke it up. I really do love movies like this where you can really delve into things afterwards and come up with theories etc. Lets the enjoyment you got from the movie continue for quite a while afterwards.

    The thing that crashes into the sea at the end of the movie most likely isnt the monster, but part of a satellite that was mentioned in the viral marketing.

    I loved the movie, thought they revealed the monster really well throughout and its been interesting reading about all the viral marketting that went on before the movie came out. You arent the only one who thought about news footage at the end either, both me and my mate came out thinking that would have been a good addition but now ive properly thought about it I think it was a nice ending still not knowing what really happened. Oh and this movie had possibly one of my favourite lines from a movie ever: "I just cant stop thinking of how scary it would be if a flaming hobo ran out now from the dark!" Im not too excited for the announced sequel though as im not sure its really necessary. Aswell I think they will have a problem with the filming as it would feel a bit far fetched to have POV filming again and if they went with normal movie style filming others would complain. I posted this in the rate the movie thread but people who have seen Cloverfield should read through the IMDB FAQ as it has some answers and theories concerning where "Clovie" came from and what the splash into the water was at the very end of the movie. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1060277/faq

    Anyone whos actually seen Cloverfield and wants a bit more information you should check out the IMDB FAQ as its quite a good read: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1060277/faq

    Cloverfield I really did love this movie, it revealed the monster at the right amounts throughout the movie and it was nice to actually not get spoon fed information about the monster and make your own decisions. 9/10 Not too sure what I think of a sequel though, not really needed and feels more like a cash in.

    Buying all the manga has just reminded me that I used to have some Ironfist Chinmi books. Has anyone else read any of them?

    I think it was on the James May kids toys program shown over xmas but im pretty sure it said that pink was actually associated with boys and not girls about 100 years ago

    Yep, although as I was mentioning to my friend last night ive never actually managed to watch the series all the way through after owning it for more than a year. Did love the movie though.

    Im just planning on ordering a few threw amazon until I can get the free delivery and just do it that way EDIT: I do wish though that Amazons book section had a manga sub-section so I could just look through without knowing what I want
  22. Happenstance
    Well Gantz is proving hard to find, found a few places that seemed to originally have it but not anymore
  23. Happenstance
    Thanks for that
  24. Happenstance
    Yeah I was gonna use amazon to get some FMA manga, was also looking for some Gantz but have yet to find it

    Just asked this in the Post Your Purchases thread but this is probably a better place to. What are some good sites to order manga from?
