The Sci Fi Guy

So our favorite Lost mystery man, JJ Abrams, is just putting the finishing touches on his new feature film, temporarily dubbed “Cloverfield” after the studio code name leaked on the web.

Note: Of course we all know that NOTHING JJ Abrams does is “leaked” - rather it was “let out”.

So what is this film about? Well, it’s your typical New York City monster disaster flick, but I’m sure with a twist. So far there’s a pretty decent list of what it’s not:

• It’s not a Voltron movie. However, there is a Voltron movie in development, tentatively slated to release in 2010. Considering the huge success of Transformers as a proving ground for whether or not we’re ready for big robot blockbuster movies, I’ll bet Voltron’s stock just moved up these last couple months.
• It’s not a pure-play Godzilla movie.
• It’s not going to be named Monstrous.
• It’s probably not a movie about Cthulu, a mythical tentacle creature. However, this last rumor has been around the longest, and as far as I can tell from searching, there’s no official denial that this is our main baddy.

So, there you have it. A long list of speculation.

JJ Abrams, always playing games with his audience, continues to keep this one well in the dark, as well as the next season of Lost. What are we, the innocent audience member to do?

Hang tight.
