[SPEC] DSI - Sea Bed Nectar

Eggs. That's what I think the SBN is.

You have to keep them chilled just like eggs. There's no other reason to keep a nectar of all things refridgerated. Nectar and honey are thick enough as it is without it being coagulated in cold temperatures. What other reason would there be to keep it cold? Maybe to keep monsters from hatching and growing at an exponential rate.

The Japanese eat alot of raw ingredients, sushi being one, and it hasn't mutated them yet. Soybeans as well, and I believe they have some healthy properties as well. Maybe it's difficult to analyze because they haven't done so in the past yet, so there's nothing to cross-reference it to.

If a SKYSCRAPER sized beast bit her, there would be nothing left to explode.

I hate to bring this up, since it's just random garbage that popped up four months ago, but it seems to make a little bit of sense now. Not to say that I think it's authentic now that it suddenly makes sense. Just reminding people it's around (though I probably don't need to). It's just an interesting coincidence.

Granted, it could be eggs or seed pods, but then I think there must be something special with the DSI used in america, or the japs would burst all over the place after years of drinking Slusho!

I find it more plausible that the "nectar" or "honey" is a biproduct from some biological prosess in the ooze. And that this stuff goes bad when heated (maybe loose its effect as an active ingredient?) But maybe Tagruato either has made syntetic DSI or found a different kind, that does not just loose its pep when exposed to heat, but actually acts as some sort of toxin?

If the sample Teddy sent Jamie is not just DSI, but the PRODUCERS of DSI, eating the sample could mess up the recipient in all kinds of ways. The "Freeze-note" could just be a way to make the biological process act as in-situ...

I don't think the DSI has anything to do with "exploding" or "infected" people. As said, the Japanese have been injesting it for years (And any American visiting Japan, no doubt), and no bad effects yet. If heating activates the Nectar there would have been plenty of incidents before now.

Who hasn't left their Icee or Slush Puppy in the car for a couple of hours, came back to find it melted and warm, and sipped it anyway?

I sure hope it's not eggs...It just CAN'T be eggs. As someone said before, we already ruined one great monster movie legend by taking away brains and giving "her" eggs. Forget the ARG, if it's eggs, the movie will blow to no end. I'll feel like I'm watching Zilla all over again. Sigh, *looks on Cloverfield IMDB cast list for Matthew Broderick*

Not sure about the whole eggs thing either. I just cannot see how there would be so many eggs and only one giant monster. And I gotta tell ya, I sure hope there are no little monsters. One more thing, I will go on record right now and say I do not think there are any exploding people either. Don't get me wrong, infected zombie like exploding people would be sweet, I just don't picture it along with a giant monster in a movie. I cannot see how that would work but then again I am not a rich film producer/director with a huge staff of writers either. Just my opinion. Confused

As with all things JJ Abrams, this exploding girl may not be what she seems. If you think about how LOST works (which I know JJ doesn't have much to do with anymore, but the "mystery formula" is still the same as it always has been).

First, we see something that's scary and we don't understand it...It just raises a lot of questions and makes little sense to the plot at hand.

Second, we see a character or even or object that ties into the mystery.

Finally, the mystery is explained and what once was scary is now innocuous and harmless. A good example of this is how in the first season of LOST we see a very strange looking golden retriever staring at the survivors off in the jungle. The dog seems ominous, but it turns out it's just a survivor's dog. This formula has been applied to the show time and time again, and I see it being present in Cloverfield as well.

Jamie's gift contains the lamest surprise ever. If this guy Teddy was in real, actual trouble...Why put your desperate cry for help in a box that isn't supposed to be open for two months?!?!?! Probably something totally harmless...Maybe the monster is actually a good thing...

Where exactly does it say 'Has she been bitten?' in the trailer? I just watched it, and I didn't hear anyone say it once...

Can you please tell me at what time frame the person says it? I'll watch it one more time to see if I hear it, but I think I would have heard that, or more people would be talking about that..
