The reason I haven't posted much all month is because I'm supporting my striking brothers and sisters in Hollywood and across the country. It's certainly got nothing to with the fact that I'm lazy and nothing all that interesting has happened to me lately.

Anyway, I crossed the picket lines to tell you to go see "Cloverfield". If you are a fan of the way J.J. Abrams spins a yarn, then you would enjoy this movie. If you get carsick leaving your driveway. Skip this movie. If you like get carsick leaving your driveway but enjoy puking in public, see this movie. There's a lot of shaky cam, that's what I'm saying.

UPDATE: Case in Point

Cloverfield Warning

I wanna see it! But I have heard stories of people hovering over trashcans during and after the movie. I'm a bit afraid.

I saw it with a girl who gets pretty severely motion sick and she was ok through the movie. Afterward she was a little queasy. But she never spewed. So I would say unless you're really really bad about getting motion sick you'd be ok. Also, the theater where we saw it was relatively small and the screen wasn't as huge as a lot of the majorly huge googleplexes these days. So that helped too I think. Food for thought.

[this is good]

I find it hard to comprehend that a movie that is so shaky as to induce vomiting could get through test screenings. And there I was thinking that the last Bourne movie was as bad as it could get :)

Then again, I also don't really understand rollercoasters… so don't listen to me!

Think of all those crappy home movies your dad shot when you were a kid with the family video camera. Now imagine there's a monster in the background.
