Cloverfield Myspace Pages Updated

For more than two months, the majority of the Cloverfield Character MySpace pages have been left alone, although HUD had his occasional blog entry about comics. As of yesterday, they’ve all been updated--except for Jamie’s page, her last login was 10/17/2007. Jamie’s probably been taking more strip classes and is too busy to update her page.

You can view their interactions here:
Rob Hawkins
Beth McIntyre
Lily Ford
Hudson Platt
Jason (JJ) Hawkins
Marlena Diamond

In other MySpace news, the folks at UnFiction have begun to convince me The Glass Helmets may be in-game. Their song, "The Green Force," is the same song Jamie danced to in her latest video. Even more convincing is their latest show at the TIDOWave Rally, which was subsequently canceled.

Rally Show Cancelled

We were really looking forward to seeing you guys at the Tidowave rally next week but we had to cancel our set. There's been an accident within the band and we are currently recovering, both physically and emotionally. That's all the info we can give out at this time. Thanks to all of you who sent cards and well-wishes.

Know that this will not in any way affect the release of our next single, "Arbiter of Digressions". We're super proud of it and can't wait for your reactions. Keep checking the site for more updates!

Is there any significance to the character MySpace pages? How about The Glass Helmets? Your thoughts are welcome.

Cloverfield Plot Summary Revealed

A few days ago, Crave Network Web sites received an official plot synopsis for Cloverfield. Today, the movie's official site, http://www.cloverfieldmovie.com/, was updated with the plot synopsis as well. It reads as follows.

Five young New Yorkers throw their friend a going-away party the night that a monster the size of a skyscraper descends upon the city. Told from the point of view of their video camera, the film is a document of their attempt to survive the most surreal, horrifying event of their lives.

This comes as no big news. We know about Rob and his friends. We know there's a monster attack. We know it's filmed with handheld cameras. We know they are fighting for their lives.

The big question is, who are Rob's five friends? From the MySpace accounts we've already discovered, we know Rob has six close friends. Beth, HUD, Jamie, Jason (his brother), Lily, and Marlena.

In the trailers, we've definitely seen Jason(1) and Lily(2) and Marlena(3). Promotional photos show Beth(4) and HUD(5) are in the movie. And from a picture featured on 1-18-08.com, we've seen Rob with Jamie(6) and HUD.

That accounts for all six of Rob's friends, all who we assume would be at the party. So, is this a simple mathmatical mistake on Paramount's part, or is it something bigger?

Also of note: During the credits for second trailer, only six actors are mentioned. The actress that plays Jamie is not one of them. However, Jamie has been featured in a series of four video blogs, which seem an integral part of the plot leading up to the movie.

Subscribe to the 1-18-08 Characters' MySpace Blogs

Project Cloverfield has compiled the blogs from all the characters' MySpace pages.

If you want to stay updated with the Myspace blogs that belong to the 1-18-08 cast, you can subscribe to each blog separately. However, if you would like to subscribe to just one feed that pulls in all seven blogs, you can subscribe to http://feeds.feedburner.com/projectcloverfield/myspace (alternatively you can add this syndicated feed: 11808blogs to your livejournal friends list.)
If you do not want to subscribe, but would rather just view on occasion, you can visit feeder.projectcloverfield.com/MyspaceBlogs/. However, do note that the timestamps that are being shown at Feeder are the actual timestamps that these entries were originally created. The dates that are posted at the blogs itself have been edit (backdated) to appear as if though they were posted months upon months ago.

There has also been a lot of talk about the significance of these MySpace profiles. Could the characters themselves give us clues to what this movie is about? While it's certainly possible, this blogger thinks the characters are as clueless as we are.

1-18-08 MySpace Pages

After reading the back of the newest photo on 1-18-08.com, I did a quick search for Jamie Lascano on MySpace. Wouldn't you know it, the site exists! She's also got some interesting friends. I think you might recognize a few of them. Check out her MySpace page.



Be sure to browse her friends' pages as well. It turns out Rob Hawkins and the guy wearing the Slusho t-shirt in the trailer (Jason) are brothers. Some of these guys even like the show LOST. Too bad they're probably going to miss the start of season four.

Thanks to jts1123 for suggesting I check out MySpace profiles. I also updated the IMDB page based on the names given on the MySpace pages. Hopefully they accept my edits.
