Cloverfield [BLU-RAY] (Paramount Home Entertainment, 6.3.2008)
Disguised under deliberately goofy, yet deliciously edible-sounding, aliases such as Cheese and Slusho, Matt Reeves'
Cloverfield was produced and rushed into theaters under an equally appetizing shroud of secrecy. From last year's incredibly elusive Super Bowl ad to the film's viral marketing campaign,
Cloverfield had everybody scratching their heads and drooling in anticipation. Aside from the as-yet untitled title and the
Blair Witch-ian visual style, the film's biggest appeal was the enigmatic creature who was last (un)seen hurling the decapitated head of the Statue of Liberty onto the crowded streets of New York City. All we knew about the mysterious beast was that it was big and angry. Now that the highy-anticipated project has come and gone, one question has fortunately been answered:
Cloverfield was a major success.

Hmmm...East Hampton, nice boats, a fancy bike...a reveling in comsumer culture and luxury to rival the SEX AND THE CITY movie.

ah, the hamptons, the place where nomad biker poets go to connect with the cosmos...
...Wells, after your hate-fuck of Sex and the City for the last week, a trip to the Hamptons is just about the only thing that could make you even more of a pun than you've already become...enjoy the "good conversations with really interesting people" who abhor materialism and superficilality...in the Hamptons...
