Why im skeptic about it, what made her crash then? if the outside was really that bad from when Clover first came around as we know then surely she would of known shit was going down anyway? how can she not know about it? she would of been a survivor of the whole Clover ideal herself.

Amnesia from the crash?


Maybe but i dont know, i mean for someone who just woke up in some strangers bunker and seems fine until the rumble on the ceiling, why does she only then seem to question things? (by the looks of things)

Welp there goes my theory. Aaaand it's gone, it's all gone.

However, this is very interesting, and brings some food for thought. This whole iPhone technicality would make it seem like after the events of Cloverfield, the monsters didn't go on to terrorize and destroy the rest of the U.S. through their own destruction as well as military warfare against them. Because if that were so, how would she end up buying a recently released iPhone imported from another country? Life must've gone back to normal elsewhere from NYC for something like this to occur. But this is really hard to speculate about since it's a mere small detail of the different phones used in both movies. Still, makes you think.

This continuity issue might really be evidence that this movie isn't directly related to the original. But I don't know. I hope it is pretty directly related. Thoughts?

 		Hello again everybody! It's so nice beeing at home again, luv you all Smile

Some thoughts right now:

1) We should try to encrypt the books on the shelves. I hope to find some high-end-HD version of the trailer. For example all those manga (Dragonhead anybody?)
2) Eiffel Tour. Now, I've watched (and re-watched) Le Jetee recently (a weird photo movie that inspired "12 Monkeys"). It's about Third World War, bunkers, manipulations, power, and partly Eiffel Tour. Perhaps the poster we see in the trailer is some kind of allusion?
3) @VirtuallyQuinn: Lizzy Caplan? Totally! I have the same feeling immediately.

im wondering if the bombs didn't work. MGP ate an entire stealth bomber barrage and still had the strength to leap up into the air and take out the chopper that rob, beth, and hud were all in. The military might have resorted to nukes. the sound at the end of the trailer could have been the sounds of an atom bomb detonating in the distance. could be way off because it still doesn't explain the time span between flip phones and smart phones but damn if it ain't fun to speculate! Very Happy

Someone or whoever was left after the bombs dropped on NYC found the footage of the 1st movie. Leading me to believe this is sometime after the 1st event. how long who knows. Maybe JG is a government employee with knowledge of 1st event and subsequent cover up.

Maybe but i dont know, i mean for someone who just woke up in some strangers bunker and seems fine until the rumble on the ceiling, why does she only then seem to question things? (by the looks of things)

Like someone said before, the events in the trailer are all mixed up. The first shot, in sequence, is probably the shot where she is handcuffed to the bed or the shot where she has a brace on her leg. The second shot is of her looking up at the bunker door with the crutch under her arm (I'm assuming this is when she finds out that she is actually being kept in a bunker. I'm also assuming John Goodman has no idea that she has amnesia and HE is assuming that she already knows about the world outside of the bunker.) The third shot in sequence is the one where they are all sitting at the table and she hit John Goodman in the face with a beer bottle and tries to escape, only to be stopped when she realizes the world outside is not the one she remembers before the crash. The shots that take place in the beginning of the trailer all happen AFTER she realizes that staying the shelter is her best bet.

Do NOT return to The Farm. It's crawling with agents on Tagruato's payroll.

the fruit has ties to Louisiana which the film looks like it could take place in

 		Something French?
OK, another thing is interesting: the French theme.

There is a Eiffel Tour poster on the wall


as well the t-shirt of the girl with "Paris Je t'aime" (I love you, Paris)



and some watercolors on the wall (pretty soon on the floor after such bottle distruction)




Is it really some tribute to Le Jetée? Or is somebody in the bunker a French fan? Presumbably it s not in France since all the things are rather tourist souvenir stuff. Or perhaps John Goodmans character (if he is the hatch owner) was in France and just borrowed the t-shirt to the girl? (Well not really size fitting though, lol).

 		There are two scenes of her going to the stairs in the same shirt. One she has a crutch. The other is after she cracks goodman with the bottle and runs for it. Inwonder if these are two different cuts or two different scenes.

We see her in three states.

1) white tee,and knee brace.
2) various articles of clothing (no shoes) and no apparent brace. In the love seat,her legs are tucked under her. Walking around crutchless.
3) white tee,crutch on stairs without goodman or Gallagher

Just wanted to draw attention to those things. Especially the twice on the stairs thing.

I think this film is going to be less about the Macguffin outside, and more about the arc of the folks in the bunker. Seems like a break in character for the BR style of movies, but she did say that she worked ONLY with 2 other actors.
