So, I just saw the movie yesterday, and I'm so happy to see I'm not the ONLY one who liked it. My boyfriend thought it was alright, but certainly wasn't as awed by it as I was.

Anyway, I've been reading this community and others around the web for about an hour, trying to get more info about the movie, and my head is spinning. I'm a bit confused, and excited.

Sorry to ask but...



So- what the hell is the deal with this tidowave and tagruato stuff? I am thoroughly confused about those sites, which seem to be a big deal on http://www.cloverfieldnews.com/ -but both sites are shut down now?

I'm also totally in awe that the monster may not be dead?!?! I'm so pissed! My boyfriend and I almost always stay past the credits, and this time we didn't. I also missed the whole "thing" falling into the ocean. Apparently that's connected to tagrato somehow?

I don't know, I really should be in bed but I just want to know more about this movie!

I LOVE stories like this, haha it faintly reminded me of watching my boyfriend play Half-Life the pc game (not totally the same, but if you know the game, you may understand)
Wow anyway...
Can someone just explain to me the things I don't get, just a little? Thanks so much!

Tidowave and Tagruato are just apart of the ARG that was setup for the movie; It gives backstory to various origins, and more detail into each character's life.

The "thing" falling is just a satellite that Tagruato owns; Supposedly this is what awakens the monster that's in the sea. Matt Reeves mentions this somewhat in a recent interview.

A really good place to look is here. It answers a lot of the basic questions about the movie.

Tagruato.jp is back up!

There's a story about Ganu Yoshida fighting off some attackers who poured something over his head, but I'm not sure if that was there before the site went down for "maintenance".
