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.

"I don't have a great bedside manner," Bergstein acknowledged.
Bergstein needs to join me at the Bunny Ranch to learn beside manners from the ladies who work at the house.
This guy comes off as a quick turn artist who got into a business where he can't just make the quick deals and split.
And how the hell does a film about a waitress with a nail in her head cost $30 million?

I've been hearing a lot about this guy over the last couple months around the water cooler (well, whatever is analogous to the water cooler at my workplace), as my company is one of the ones from whom he stole. I'm not versed in the details, but my employer is not happy with him to say the least.
