 		it was only a theory,besides it was probably just the tagruato satellite.I also think that TIDO WAVE could have possibly created the monster some how since they are an enemy of tagruato.

 		yes a bunch of hippies, created a giant monster, thousands of years ago. knowing that tagruato would one day rise to power.
so it is written, so it shall be truth.

seriously people, the falling object is a piece of a satellite that Tagruato had been tracking.

JJ Confirmed this


where does he say that specifically?

also, what happened in the movies and what's in the production notes can easily lead the story into 2 different origins... the fact is, we know that the monster has been down there thousands of years, but the only hint of its origin in the movie is the object falling from the sky, which w/o any prior knowledge to the monster, it would seem that it was from space... So, basing off of that- the sequel could easily take the 'space' approach and run with it, simply because the mass majority of people that saw the movie don't know about the broken satellite or the production notes.


I want a response to this question. I'm pretty sure you are mistaken, sOuLii.

And, xboy, I absolutely agree with your analysis. Unless that falling object were to be explained as the satellite piece, or something else, in the sequel, it wouldn't make sense to the general audience to say that the monster has been around for thousands of years.

For the record, I'm pretty sure that the whole viral marketing thing was done by set of people who didn't really communicate with the actual filmakers much. All they cared about was getting attention for the movie, not fleshing out any official backstory. Which pisses me off. I guess we'll just have to wait for the DVD, or maybe future interviews with the filmakers for answers.

 		the whole thing with the object falling in the water at the end was just a little diddy for all us following the story. it was meant for us to see and be like " hey i know what that is." end of story.

I'd like to think that too but Reeves did come out and say that it has to do with the "origins" of the monster.

I don't.

If that was an egg and MGP came from it then that makes the whole "MGP is thousands of years old" thing bunk and the film makers haven't outright lied to us before.

I've never heard of anything like that and there wasn't an egg on the Brooklyn Bridge.

It's very rare that a sequel does not get drawn into backstory and origins. What do we know there?… The last couple of shots of Cloverfield return to the footage that's being recorded over - To Rob and Beth at Coney Island. In the background, you can just catch a large dark object plummeting through the sky, into the ocean. In other words - the first footage of the monster's arrival?

No, not the monster. J.J. Abrams has said "The concept for the monster is simple. He's a baby. He's brand-new. He's confused, disoriented and irritable. And he's been down there in the water for thousands and thousands of years." What you see falling is a satellite, and it's the recovery of that which awakens the beast…
