Cloverfield sequel in the works

Cloverfield Movie Poster
"Cloverfield" was a big hit - the secrecy surrounding the movie enticed viewers, the movie itself gave us what we wanted: big monster beatdown, and the gimmick of the movie being a handheld camera tape held up for the 80 minute runtime.

What I'm not interested in, is a sequel.

I'm dressed in heavy skepticism, because I suspect that a sequel will be the same gimmick, different city, different monster. I'm not sure I could sit through that.

Are they making a sequel? Well, according to the cash register-lovin' executives at Paramount, there's one on the way, with director Matt Reeves attached to the project.

I found this news on I Watch Stuff, which points out that the 'success' of Cloverfield was perhaps a one-time bonanza:

"...despite a massive box office drop from its opening week, an indicator that maybe audiences don't want to see more Cloverfield"

I agree. I don't really see where they can go with this one. Let's hope they use a little imagination.

Seriously, a sequel??? You're right, I really don't think that we need a sequel.

i think that a sequel would be great. SPOILERS i know that the sequel COULD be based on the message heard at the end of the film - "it's still alive"
