Heh.
Those videos are really, really bad.
I don't know who made them in a desire to promote the DVD release, but they didn't even use the original roar sounds. They had those up on the "When Cloverfield Hit" contest site, so I don't know why or how anyone Paramount sanctioned couldn't get them. There's an awful lot of fire in the explosions too.
This looks like something done by the local distributors, or a vendor of DVDs.

ETA: In light of the fact they didn't use even the right sounds and the 'parasites' are pretty much amorphous grey globs, don't take this as canon. The news videos on the DVD are better quality than this, and those were made fairly crudely compared to the film itself.


yeah dude. Hella bad. Wouldn't it be kinda cool tho if they made different versions of Cloverfield for each continent?? THAT would be an interesting concept-that is to say, that the possibility that there is a different monster attacking each continent would be plauseable. I would totally freakin dig it if they did a different version for Australia/New Zealand, and another for Japan, One for Germany/France/England, and one for the Continental United States. U know what i mean? kinda like a COLLECT EM ALL!! typa deal, lol.

SlushoRoar, i would hate it if that were the case... hahaha. maybe i'm being a little bit nostalgic, but i'm hoping this could be IG.

how friggin awesome would it be if the sequel came out, only to show that a half dozen of these things woke up at the same time, and devastated major countries? if this IS in-game, the implications are awesome.

6 hours isn't enough time to get from NY to sydney. what if each station located at a major trench found one of these things. and something occured to simultaneously piss them off, and BAM. worldwide monster attack. way too cool.

i know i sound too much like an overly-speculative newbie, but i'm just excited, hahaha. this has been the first piece of anything that we've gotten in more than a week. Very Happy


Or better yet, what if Tagruato's "drilling stations" each represented an individual holding cell for its own MGP?? If we thought about it THAT way, jesus christ, there would be like 20 different Monsters....

no shit, that's what i was originally thinking, hahaha... then i hit wikipedia to research each different station's ocean location... only six of them are found in a deep trench. but still. that doesn't necessarily mean that only six have capabilities of storing stuff.

hooray for a worldwide, simultaneous monster attack! even is the aussie's have cheap videos! clovers for the win!

Maybe...or it's not cloverfield but an effect of the indiana jones crystal skull?

They're marked 5-22-08, That would be about September of 09 in the cloverfield movie.

Regarding the "Monsters Attack Australia": I think a civilian would regard the parasites as monsters. I'm not saying that there can't be other baby Clovers, but it doesn't necessarily mean that there are, either.

i'm not really sure if those videos are real, but i swear in the one where you see the bombs out the window it has a sound effect i used in my video for the cloverfield contest. i'm 99% sure its the same sound. but its not like i made it, its a free sound so its just a cool coincidence if anything.

EDIT: just looking over the video where you see out the window, it looks pretty fake. i know exactly where the stock footage of the explosions came from, and even some of the sound effects. then again, maybe they're using that stuff.

Is this supposed to be a different creature because the attacks doesn't seem to match Clover's known ablities.

If this is IG i'll just be pissed. At least the Chuai videos had believable acting and decent effects.

Re: Cloverfield Attacks Australia

There are 6 new Cloverfield videos showing an attack on Sydney, for the Australian DVD release on May 22. If you watch (or listen) closely, you will notice some subtle DVD product placement.


Hey Dennis, is there any way you can give me a link to zoom in on that picture with the magazine add so that i can read the article?? i clicked on the pic on your site, but it wont lemme zoom in any more than it already is, so i cant read that paragraph, or the writing below the pic of the dude with his brain all cat-scanny. Could you hook me up please bro?? N btw everyone else in the thread, i just checked out all of the vidz....WOW. thats all ima say. WOW. I mean, i know Australia is a different country, but is their technology THAT far behind from ours to where they cant make the shit look just a tad, a smidgen more REAL for everyone?? WOW.

it kills me that all anyone is doing is crying about the video quality. not everyone, i mean, we all made comments about it. but i see comment after negative comment saying shit like "i'll be mad if this is real becos it looks crappy".

look at friggin missingteddyhanssen. or the USGX site. REAL high production values there, right? but it's serious shit, and it should merit some excitement.

whether or not these videos are amazingly produced, just think about it. we have news footage of the monster attacking australia. what we should be worried about is whether or not this IS in-game, or whether it's just promotional. it would seem VERY stupid to me if it was only promotional. don't get me wrong, y'all... i FULLY agree that these videos look like horse-shit, and the special effects are on par with my avatar, but still. the content is what i'm thinking about.

i'm not trying to bitch anyone out, or start any arguments, i'm just saying. let's put our heads together on this, instead of being all flustered about the quality of the videos.
