[INFO][FAKE] New Cloverfield Posters Are these for real? No! The following site has posted shots of three new posters for Cloverfield:
http://www.moviesonline.ca/movie_posters.php?id=10514
If these are real, they're pretty freaky. One shows what appears to be a large statue's hand (SOL?) buried in muck, and another shows a giant shadow of something (MGP?) looming over the city. These images are all VERY different from any of the material we've seen so far. Although the posters have Paramount logos, they seem so different that I'm wondering if they're real. Time will tell I guess.
[edit] Sorry. These are fakes from back around August. They are discussed on the 1-18-08 News site here: http://1-18-08news.com/?s=posters For some reason, moviesonline.ca decided to post them today as if they were something new and real.

Those are fake. Also that hand can't belong to the SoL because one of its hands is holding a tablet/book and the other is holding the torch. Also imagine how huge that monster would be if it could cast a shadow like that. It'd have to be larger than the official description which is "the size of a skyscraper".

The buried statue hand would have to come from something enormous if the person shown walking nearby is intended to give us some scale. Think of the size of the SOL head relative to the people in the clip snapping cell phone photos. That head size doesn't match up with this hand size.
The shadow looming over the city makes the monster look like the "Iron Giant" (or maybe Thundercleese from Brak ). It looks robotic and nothing like the green "thing" we see slipping between or into buildings from our clip.
The other thing that makes these suspicious to me is the absence of the movie title itself from the posters.

Full of lame.
The third one looks like the Honey Nut Cheerioes Bee is attacking the city.
Meh.

Not to mention that I'm pretty sure that's a really old pic of NYC used in the poster.
Fakes, but still fun to look at.

Are you sure they are fake?...do not believe they would put up on a commercial website fake posters advertising the movie.

I'd put money on it. I believe the posters were debunked before. Also, some of those, particularly the shadow monster...heck, I could make that, and I'm no Photoshop expert. And look at the fonts! Isn't that Arial?

Debunked a long, long time ago. Yes, they're fake, and in some cases the stock photos used for the posters were found.
Fake, fake, fake.
And the only one that looks real is the photo with the officers and scared woman.
