Cloverfield Premier Photos With Cast ,Crew, and the Headless Statue of Liberty

Headless Statue of Liberty at the Cloverfield Movie Premier

IESB.net has landed a ton of Cloverfield premier pics. You'll see the cast and crew of Cloverfield along with some out of place celebrities looking for attention. I'm not sure what Ashlee Simpson and that Malcom in the Middle kid are doing there but if you told me that the Cloverfield Monster ate Ashlee Simpson I'd be very, very happy!

Unfortunately, they don't label their pictures so some of the people are a mystery to me. Along with the Cloverfield cast you'll notice another cast of J.J. Abrams newest movie. The new cast of the Star Trek flick is on hand. And yes, Greg Grunberg is among the list of stars that showed up. No one's mentioned yet if they've seen him in the Cloverfield movie during the screenings. You'll also see some cast members of NBC's Heroes including Zachary Quinto who will play Spock in the Star Trek movie. You'll notice a couple stars from "Lost" there as well.

The highlight of the photo album has to be the headless Statue of Liberty replica complete with claw marks on the backside. (see photo album)

Cloverfield In The News





A semi- humorous look at the world as it has been touched by J.J. Abrams.

Unfortunately, she discusses her interest in the film and brings out the Cloverfield-9/11 connection at the end.



A look at the production of new movies Cloverfield and Paranormal Activity, which both borrow heavily from the infamous Blair Witch Project.




This is a limited time advertisement, but Cloverfield is the latest movie to take over the homepage of MySpace.

Another Fake 'Cloverfield' Site Folds Up

1.18.08 Blog (formerly the 'Untitled JJ Abrams' Blog) noticed this little update. Remember the license plate site for the Jeep in the trailer called ABZ-3293 ?

Well, it was kind of a fun site that just posted a message that a family trinket was in the Jeep destroyed by Lady Liberty. It allowed posts and after 600 comments the guys called THEMSELVES out (here) and told the world they were just having fun and it got out of control.

It was fun while it lasted...

Also, for those of you that might not know already(or just don't want to admit) the Ethan Hass tie-in was just a video game that their producers, in my eye, were using the 'Cloverfield' momentum for their own gain.

In the beginning a few blogs were leaked out with the Ethan Hass/Cloverfield tie-in. It was called out by someone (I don't remember who made the finding offhand) for being a video game called Alpha Omega. They have officially changed the Ethan Hass stuff over to the game now. Guess they milked 'Cloverfield' for all they could get.

If I remember right, and maybe someone can back me up on this, they stuck 'Cloverfield' tags in their blogs to get the 'Cloverfield' traffic or something like that. I'll have to look into that. Anyway, stick a fork in it - Ethan Hass is now officially out of the game.

What is Cloverfield?

Welcome to 1-18-08 Project Cloverfield Blog.

Cloverfield is the J.J. Abrams (Lost, Alias) produced monster flick directed by Matt Reeves. Get caught up on all the Cloverfield news including the viral world of Tagruato, TIDOwave, and Slusho!? And now Aladygma?

However, I love viral campaigns. Cloverfield taught me the fun of being involved with the viral world of movies and TV. That's why I'd like to branch out this site to cover some of the major viral campaigns as they are developing. Feel free to drop me a line or tip on any you find interesting.

Welcome to Cloverfield

Very few facts emerged from the viral campaign that was Cloverfield. It all started after a short, teaser trailer for Cloverfield appeared with the Transformers movie in early July of 2007. Since then, speculation surrounded what the title of the movie would be (Monstrous, Overnight, etc...) and what the monster really is and why it is tearing up New York City.

A few pictures and covert videos from the film showed up online and there were only a few core facts we knew of including the poster, the teaser trailer, and a few websites at 1-18-08, Tagruato Corp, and Slusho .

In November, the official full-length Cloverfield trailer was released that helped open up the story as well as cement the "Cloverfield" name for the movie. A short glimpse of the Cloverfield Monster was seen but for most people they still had little or no clue as to what it was.

The movie centered around five young New Yorkers throwing 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. Cloverfield opened the weekend of 1-18-08 and set box office records for a movie in January with a monster take of over $40M.

Get Started with the Cloverfield Viral Marketing

If you're new to the Cloverfield viral world than let's get started. First off, for the beginners let's look at what we're talking about.

What does viral marketing mean? Click here.

Click and hold the mouse to 'grab' an image and move it around. While holding the image, shake it back and forth quickly and it will flip over. Some images have writing on the back.

Slusho This is the Japanese frozen drink made from a secret ingredient gathered from the bottom of the ocean. Slusho gives you a kick and makes you extremely happy. Prior to 1-18-08 Slusho was not sold in the US. However, recent FDA approval gave Slusho clearance to come to the states. Rob Hawkins, the lead character, was recently promoted to vice-president of Slusho and was on his way to Japan the night of the attack. Slusho is owned by the Tagruato Corp. of Japan. Slusho also first made an appearance on J.J. Abrams Alias during a scene where characters buy the drink at a store.

Tagruato This ficticious Japanese company is the parent company of Slusho as well as the Yoshida Medical Research, Bold Futura, and ParafFUN! Wax Distributors. Besides drilling the oceans for Slusho ingredients, Tagruato builds everything from space satellites to medical gear.

T.I.D.O wave An activist group set out to bring to light all the damage Tagruato has done to the envirnoment.

Jamie and Teddy A minor character from the movie, Jamie popped up on a 1-18-08.com picture and the MySpace profiles for the movies characters before getting famous for her "Jamie and Teddy" website. The site is comprised of video journals from Jamie. The site is password protected but can be accessed by the password "jllovesth"
