Are there more than one monster?(J/K)
Serious: (i know its been said but...) What decriptions of the monster were you given prior to creating it, and what notes did they give you, mr. Page

Also: I <3 you Eddy Wink

How about: "Do you think that the Cloverfield Monster really and truly represents an American version of Godzilla and how?"

I didn't read the whole thread so I might have a duplicate question:

What is MGP/the creature's natural habitat?
Was it sleeping for all of these years?
What does it eat?

Minor setback. I was doing a last once-over before I emailed the questions and researching the "parasite" questions when I found this: http://io9.com/357856/io9-talks-to-cloverfield-monster-designer-neville-page

Turns out io9 has asked a number of the questions I'd intended to, and the answers answer many of the questions posted in this thread. So, based on the above interview, any follow-up questions?

Ask about a little more description on its other methods of eating... Very Happy

Also... ask if he is allowed to show us all his concept art for the monster AND the parasites. Tell him he'll get some virtual brownies if he does. Laughing

Ask him just what the hell those parasites DO to people in order to make em go 'splody...

And finally... ask him (if he knew about it) what he thought about all of our crazy ideas, such as the ITS A LION, + the fanarts that showed up.

*EDIT* two additional questions... How long before the movie was released did he actually begin working with them?

If MGP is a younger version, how much different would a full grown... whatever... look? He described it as being like a young deer... would its arms bulk up more as it grows, or stay fairly lanky lookin?

What did he think of the infamous giant-whale concept art? Very Happy

How long did he have to design MGP, and how much creative control was he given when it came to contributing to the overall appearance?

Also...ask for some Avatar info!

Hope its not too late, but since he said that he had about 50 sketched ideas of what clover would be....

Sorry. The questions went out yesterday. Speaking of which, by the time I was finally done formulating them, they really didn't lend themselves to direct attribution. By that I mean, I tried to write the questions both indirect and combine similarly aimed questions into one. So I'm going to have to renig on my promise to attribute certain questions to those of you who submitted. Instead I'll attribute Unfction in general.

Thanks for the brainstorming.

When are you going to be interviewing him, and approximately how long from then will you put the interview up online? I'm curious to see what he says. Very Happy
