Super 8

Might be a tad behind with this, but it's the first I've seen of it, so if you're all like "dude, that's so old!" you can just blogger off! Get it?

Anyway, this is JJ Abrams' new project. And, like with Cloverfield, no one has a fucking clue what it's about. The similarities with Cloverfield however are superficial. Yes, they both feature monsters on the loose, albeit the one in Super 8 is evidently not Godzilla in size, but that's where the comparisons end. The film is rumoured to command only a modest budget of $45million and is scheduled for release in 2011. Abrams will of course be directing and Spielberg, whose only two hobbies are WW2 and aliens, will be right at home (eh, ET?) as producer. I'm psyched. Are you?
