It's not even the same thing, and you know what I mean.

I enjoyed the movie a lot and I'd love to see a sequel/prequel/same-timequel as long as it's done properly. The beauty of the way they made the movie is that it leaves so much left to be explained and it shows so much at the same time.

What I'd personally love to see is an alternate view of the same time period. Start a bit earlier, with the Chuai station going down from the point of the US Military (I remember in one of the news-videos, they said US coastguard were stationed in/around the Chuai station area when they heard about the accident) and film it like a conventional movie. Show how they handle assessing the situation and then how they handle the Manhattan attack along with the aftermath.

It'd be cool to show the same events that we saw on the video tape from aerial views. You'd get that whole "hey, thats when the guys from cloverfield were doing X" reaction, which would be great. Things like the monster ripping off the head of the statue of libery, the huge explosion seen in the trailer from the top of Rob's roof..
