It’s called 10 Cloverfield Lane. Trailer is [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ITSO9UYklX8). Unbelievably it comes out this March. I still remember seeing that first trailer in front of Transformers. The Movie didn’t quite live up to it but that was one of the best trailers and marketing campaigns ever.

I’m stoked! It’s kinda cool how they were able to keep this production a secret.

I’m down for it. _Cloverfield_ didn’t live up to its hype, but it was a fun ride; both the hype and even the movie itself.

I was actually hoping they’d follow up the first movie with something. Interesting that they ditched the found-footage angle, but I’m glad they did. I’m curious to see this franchise framed in a more traditional cinematic style.

Plus: John Goodman!

Wasn’t a fan of the first movie (one my biggest movie peeves: “Let’s build the entire plot around people making _exactly_ the wrong decision at _every possible opportunity_!”). But I’ll watch John Goodman in anything.

The first movie was decent as a big dumb monster movie, it was a lot of fun, but I barely got through it without puking 'cause of the damn shaky cam nonsense.

Please tell me that’s not coming back?
