Cloverfield/1-18-08/Secret JJ Abrams Project/Monsterous??

monsterous.jpgmonsterous.jpgMovie enthusiasts were treated before the movie Transformers to a brief glimpse of what has become one of the largest internet phenomenons since buzz about Snakes on a Plane began to build. (Trailer -> http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramount/11808/) Fortunately or unfortunately for us, JJ Abrams (Lost, Alias, MI 3) has a great track record as an innovative director… and has not let ONE plot point be leaked. So in a nutshell, the only thing known about this movie is that A) its mostly filmed through a first person shakey video camera (similar to Blair Witch Project) B) has no A or B list actors on the reel C) and is about “something” terrorizing New York City.

There have been a few developments made online regarding the movie, such as a young fan claiming to have found a secret movie poster for the film in an unknown comic book store (naming the movie “Monsterous”), that the film is basedon a team of rescue workers who find a camera after New York City is destroyed. Additionally, its been discussed that the film is about the three major monsters from the old testiment (water, earth and air), or that it even may be the new Godzilla sequel!

No one knows for sure, however JJ Abrams has cleverly left clues for die hard fans scattered all over the internet (remanisant of the Lost Experience! Coincidence? I think not.)

Hopefully more news will trickle onto the net in the months to come, otherwise we all are going to have to grind out teeth, wait patiently for January 18th, and just hope that we all havent been psyching ourselves out for a major dissapointment.

“this is a one man project created just to have a good time. i am no professional and i don’t really know what i’m doing. therefore my music is completely random and experimental. i go with the flow and never make plans. if you like what you hear, let me know.”

if you don’t understand, then you’re not hitting it right.

Bistro 422

“The Bistro is an ideal bar for casual gatherings, especially for those low on cash. A narrow, small-sized basement bar with just enough tables and chairs lining the walls, Bistro 422 can be a little cramped in winter, but it’s worth it for the laid-back environment and inexpensive draft. Their notorious house draft is less than $10 per pitcher, so this is not the place for individuals looking for upscale beer. However, for those after a relaxed, no-frills bar with charmingly surly servers, an eclectic, fun clientele, and constant old school punk rock on the stereo, this is the place. Along with pitchers, Bistro 422 serves beer by the bottle and pint, and also offers a number of simple mixed drinks and various shots like “Slippery Nipples.”

CHEAP beer, JUGS of mixed drinks or margaritas for 10 bucks?! 1.75 shots? You cant go wrong! Bitchy bartender though and not to appealing to the eyes.

Cool server, who talks in a different accent every time you see him, and is the best chillout spot. Great vibe.
