[UPDATE] IMDB & Wiki change title to "CLOVERFIELD"

**Posted:** Wed Nov 07, 2007 12:26 am

Nighthawk

Both of these are fueled by user content and public response. Until the studio comes out and publically refers to the movie as such, I ain't buyin' it.

I agree, Nighthawk.
That would be TOO simple.
I would believe it by hearing it from JJ himself.

I'm willing to bet money this isn't called Cloverfield -although if it is, it is such a terrible title that I can see why they omitted it from the trailer and went with 1-18-08.

I refuse to believe it's "Cloverfield". Why? That title doesn't mean anything.

The movie's title should be associated with the movie's content. The only reason "Cloverfield" was chosen in the first place is because of a street in Santa Monica; what does that have to do with a monster in New York City?

Looking at the wiki article, the opening sentence reads:

Check the edit history. I think it was set that way but the edits pushed it back to just being a working title.
There was a lot of stupid edits going on yesterday, based on what I was seeing in the edit history.

I hope we can please leave discussion over wiki edits to wikipedia. The talk pages are wonderful for that purpose! What wikipedia says about this film is up to wikipedia. And good luck to them. Wink

Thanks.

Just read it on IMDB:
JJ is not longer listed as the Producer?

I've said this before but I'll say again:

Something is wacky w/ IMDB and this movie. They're supposedly peer reviewed, but they've had wrong info up for ages re: the casting. I've personally tried to edit the page and for whatever reason it didn't take. I think others on this forum have tried as well, but it STILL has the wrong info about the cast up there. I don't know enough about how IMDB works to know if that's normal, but that strikes me as odd, particularly when every fan of this movie should know character names by now and it surely should've been corrected. Any ideas?

July 5th 2007 was the date of the trailer, no? So I guess this is someone "squatting" on a URL as soon as they found out the "cover name" -- or whatever its called -- "Cloverfield," for the movie?

But trying to be mysterious and clever by quoting the Bible. "In Hoc Signo Vinces" means "In this sign you will conquer."

Which makes me further doubt its relevance.

Qua?
