[POLL] Which title is best? Self-explanatory.
Anyway, this poll asks which title you think is best, not which you think it will be based on current evidence and all that.
Mostly compiled from a list of rumoured titles in my memory and what came up on Google.

w00t, I was second post and vote... Just be careful about making topics really close to others' similar topics. Not troutable by my standards, but some people on here are picky.

I like Cloverfield the most. It sounds more ominous. Dramatically ironic. A title that suggests peace, yet heads a film about destruction.

The film with no name? Brilliant. My favourite virus is the poetically named Sin Nombre , best said in cod spaghetti western accent.

Yea... it was a tough choice... but I do love the idea of having no name...
or atleast show it at the end...
if its at the end, I'd like it to be the name of the monster, and have them never name the monster in the actual movie... (like, they'd call it "That Thing" or "The Monster" but never come up with a name for it...)
then again, Overnight isnt THAT bad...

You know, I think the people that put it out there are full of it, but I don't think "Chuai" is a bad name for the monster. It's got a Japanese horror movie feel to it and seems like a name of a monster that's easy to remember. They should name the movie after the monster though, if they really want to make this a Godzilla-like franchise.

I like 01-18-08 the best, though no name is close.
Although Cloverfield is what I call it, it isnt a good name.

Hey "rose" isn't a choice? It is one word.

I don't care what it's called, it had just better be freakin' good. I've never put this much energy and time speculating about a movie release. JJ had better make it worth it, or I'm going be pissed. I'll be sure to bring lots of soggy gummy bears to lob at the screen if need be.

original, sounds kind of ominous, and if it's called anything else (apart from Cloverfield) people might not know what it is.

An enormous rose? Threatening NY and using devastating petal attacks on lady Liberty? Let me know when it's safe to go back in the garden!
