Rocket pops

Rocket pops have been a big part of this viral. It has been mentioned on Revalistic, the North Dakota town is circled on the map, the special comics, ETC, and now we hear it is hardly mentioned in the film

I feel like Ralphie on Christmas Story:



"a crummy Commercial?"

Again, unless I missed something, the three dots are not addressed. They are shown on the military trucks, but not explained.

And I agree that rocket poppeteers should have been more involved in the film. Again, there is a chance I missed something, but I was paying close attention so even if I did miss something it means it is not very significant haha.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The opening scene was at a factory and it had a sign that said something like safety is the most important thing to us and it had a count of how many days had passed since the last "accident". It showed a guy switching it from a number in the 700s back to 1. I thought of the story on the rocket poppeteers website, but the factory looked like a steel factory or something, not rocket poppeteers.

Nope. Its really weird, the ARG did not seem to be all that significant to the story.

Wow you're fantastic Tagruato, giving a good description of what the alien looks like, I got another one:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Is the creature that big?! Is it really scary as shit?! And does it fight a bit with the army?!


Thanks a lot for your time!

I was kind of serious about my Kati perry question. Ever since that song came out I thought it would be good credit music.

Sorry for the sudden pause in replying to questions. I am at work and don't have access to a computer at the moment so I'm typing this on my phone. I'll be sure to answer more questions when I get home tonight!

How bad is the language in the movie? Is there a lot? I've heard they drop an "unnecessary" F-Bomb in the movie.

Alright let's get back to it.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
When joel courtney and ryan lee's characters go down into the monster's underground lair to find it. They try to help several of the monster's "captives" escape and the monster reacts by snatching the people back. When he gets to Joel courtney however, the monster just picks him up, looks at him then sets him down and goes back to the "headquarters" of his lair. This scene is where we get our first really good look at the monster. It is a very revealing scene. Think of the scene in cloverfield when the monster just looks at hud before he eats him. This scene is like that, except the monster does not eat joel courtney haha.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Its pretty big! Its definitely not as big as clovie. Its pretty scary looking as well. Especially when you see it attacking something. JJ knows how to show just enough that its scary without seeing too much of the monster. And I don't recall a time it actually faces the army.

This one's probably not a spoiler, but just in case...
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
No thats not playing during the credits. The credits start with playing the kids' film and there is no music in the background, just the sound to the kids' film. When the kids' film ends, the score picks back up. By the way, amazing score! Incredibly beautiful!

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Charles curses quite a bit. Not any more than any other PG13 movie these days though. And the F-bomb you are referring to is spoken by a guy that is very very high. He sees some damage that the monster has done and just says it. That is the only f-bomb though. The rating was pretty spot on though for everything. It's funny too because Charles looks at the guy that is high about to pass out in the car and just shouts "drugs are so bad!" haha. He shouts because its kind of an intense scene.

Eh kinda. You're not TOO far off. The head isn't as wide though. And the color and several little tiny attributes make the actual thing alot scarier/realistic. You'll have to see it when you see the movie. For some reason it is hard for me to describe it lol. I will say, two of the most memorable features to me were it's nose and eyes. It's eyes were almost like big human eyes. And its nose was very unique. As I mentioned before, picture a grid with 4 quadrants. Very cool!

I think this technically counts as a spoiler
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Are there many signs of the creature's intelligence?
