[glow=red,2,300]10 Cloverfield Lane [/glow]Trailer - Sequel to
Cloverfield
I have a love/hate relationship with J.J. Abrahms Cloverfield. I
thought it was brilliant and fresh in everything except the POV
shaky cam.
Now a surprise trailer for the follow up...

[quote]Back in 2007, when J.J. Abrams had recently signed on to
direct Star Trek, Paramount released a surprise trailer in front
of Michael Bay’s Transformers for… something. That teaser –
which came without even a title – was the first bit of promotion
for the Abrams-produced Cloverfield. The trailer set the
internet ablaze with theories and speculation, most of which
were only answered after the found-footage monster movie debuted
in January of 2008.
Flash-forward nine years, with Abrams in the midst of taking a
victory lap for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and it has
happened all over again. Early Friday morning, Paramount
released a surprise trailer for something called 10 Cloverfield
Lane, which is screening in theaters nationwide in front of
Michael Bay’s latest movie, 13 Hours. Produced by Abrams, the
film is not a direct sequel to Cloverfield, but what Abrams
called “a blood relative” of the earlier feature in a statement
to HitFix.
So what do we know? Some stuff. For starters, Mary Elizabeth
Winstead, John Goodman, and John Gallagher Jr. are the film’s
stars, but they didn’t originally sign up for 10 Cloverfield
Lane. Back in 2014, the project was called Valencia or The
Cellar, and after Winstead was cast in the film, the trades
released the following plot summary, here via Variety:
“The majority of the movie takes place in an underground
cellar, and revolves around a young woman who wakes up in the
cellar after a severe car accident and fears she has been
abducted. Her captor, a doomsday prepper, tells her he saved her
life and that there has been a terrible chemical attack that has
left the outside uninhabitable. She does not know what to
believe and as tensions rise, she decides she must escape,
regardless of the terrors that await outside.”
Whether that basic structure still holds true is unclear, but
the trailer does include Winstead, Goodman, and Gallagher living
in an underground bunker that looks like the hatch from Lost,
with something nefarious possibly waiting just outside the
doors. (A maybe-anachronistic use of Tommy James and the
Shondells’ version of “I Think We’re Alone Now” only adds to the
creepy, hatch-y Lost-ian vibes.)
Fortunately, the mystery of this Cloverfield follow-up won’t be
secret for that long. Directed by Dan Trachtenberg, and written
by Josh Campell and Matt Stuecken with help from Whiplash
writer-director Damien Chazelle, 10 Cloverfield Lane will arrive
in theaters on March 11 of this year.[/quote]

This took so many people by surprise, honestly, I can't believe
we're finally getting to see this, it's been on my radar
forEVER. I honestly thought it was one of those movies that got
made but kept out of circulation (which happens way more often
than you'd think).

Man, I never heard a word about a sequel, except "Why haven't
they made one". But I guess you heard other things.
Well, it just got real

Well, I hadn't heard it was a sequel (and I don't really care
for Cloverfield), but I knew Dan Trachtenberg had joined Bad
Robot and shot a movie with MEW and Goodman... heck, they
finished filming a year ago.
This movie is why The Totally Rad Show ended, the director was
one of the panelists and they wrapped up the show when he left
to make this flick.
