"Cloverfield"

Do we really need the horror of 9/11 to be repackaged and presented to us as an amusement-park ride?

    @Brightstar

    When you say "more than half the country" do you mean "more than half the people you know"?

    Just wondering.

    As for the movie...I'm not one of the pre-fans that obsessed for months, but it had piqued my interest. I really like a good sci-fi monster movie, but I'll wait until I see more reviews so I can find an average and then decide if I should see it, wait for it to get to the $3 movie place, Netflix it, or wait for my sister to buy it and then borrow it from her.
