I just went over to check out your site when I initially saw your comment, and it didn't even occur to me that you're using the same theme which I'm using here! I think that confirms it... My powers of observation are nonexistent. :) Thanks for the comment and glad you enjoyed the movie. Hollywood needs more films like this -- that don't shy away from trying something stylistically new, while not hand-holding the audience through every plot development.

I like how you summarized things. It seems that people either love this movie or hate it. I'm on the loving end probably due my anticipation of it and like of Abrams directing style. Good to see that you have imagination too and didn't want nor expected to have a movie hand-feed you every little thing you should think about it. :) Cheers, Jami Oh, I found you through Chris P.'s site on his themes. Checking into using one of them. Nice site you've got here. Rick, Great review by the way. I like how you summarized things. It seems that people either love this movie or hate it.

I did not see Cloverfield (yet). I did download the CAM version that hit the torrent world a couple days ago. However, after watching 10-15 minutes of it, I realized that I was watching a handheld camera filming of another handheld camera film... I wasn't ever sure if those people crossing the screen were actually in the movie instead of in the movie thater... And so I will go see this movie in theaters in a coupe days. It will be worth it, I'm sure. First comment on your newly revamped website, Rick!
