Waking Clovie: Recent Updates on 4th Installment & Slusho Website

 We are back! There has been enough recent news that it was worth of bringing the blog back...

First off, original director Matt Reeves has confirmed that a fourth installment of the Cloverfield franchise is in the works, serving as a sequel to the first Cloverfield movie. Sources told Deadline that director Babak Anvari and writer Joe Barton are attached to the project, with J.J. Abrams producing alongside Hannah Minghella and Jon Cohen while Bryan Burk, Matt Reeves, and Drew Goddard are executive producing. The current WGA writers strike is most likely causing this project to be on hold until that dispute is settled.

In addition to the movie news, a new trademark for Slusho! was filed on March 1st of this year. You can find the details of the filing at the bottom of this page: https://trademarks.justia.com/owners/bold-futura-llc-1432956/

Lastly, a new website at slusho.com was recently discovered by reddit user /u/EliteFreakozoid over at /r/Cloververse on April 4th. While it hasn't been confirmed as an official site, the fact that it was registered around the same time as the original slusho.jp has given fans hope. Be sure to join the subreddit and the discord to stay up-to-date on the latest rumors and theories.

While these updates are exciting, we want to keep expectations managed. We don't have too many details about the upcoming movie just yet, and the Slusho website may not be official. However, we'll be sure to keep you posted as more information unfolds.

'True' Cloverfield Sequel is in the works

via Comicbook

We've waited ten years. It may be finally happening.

CinemaCon has brought us more news than Overlord's departure as fourth film in the Cloverfield Universe.

Paramount and JJ Abrams have confirmed that they are finally 'developing a true, dedicated Cloverfield sequel.' This was announced after Overlord was confirmed to NOT be the fourth film in the franchise. Abrams has said that this film is coming 'very soon' to theatres, but with no clear release date or official press for the film so far, we don't know when. The theatre release for this 4th instalment is in stark contrast to the previous entry in the series, The Cloverfield Paradox, which had a direct to Netflix release straight after the Super Bowl in early February this year.

But what should we expect from this 'true sequel'? While the plot is only to be speculated, we can only guess that the Cloverfield monster will make an appearance again. Whether or not we will see the fate of our original characters (including Beth, Rob and Lily), we will have to wait and see.

Overlord is not Cloverfield 4

Official Overlord photo, unveiled at CinemaCon.


JJ Abram's comments at CinemaCon have confirmed that the aforementioned film 'Overlord' is NOT the fourth film in the Cloverfield Universe. This comes after Abrams unveiled footage for the WWII horror/thriller, including revealing the film to be R rated. This will be Bad Robot's first R-Rated Feature. Vulture has quoted JJ's thoughts on the matter: 

"Because it is R-rated, I can describe it as bats**t crazy," Abrams said. "It is a crazy sci-fi, action, horror film that takes place in World War II, directed by Julius Avery. It is super fun. We're really excited about it."

The filmmaker was quick to qualify: "It's not a Cloverfield movie. We are developing a true, dedicated Cloverfield movie soon."- (via Vulture.com)

In terms of the reason why Overlord has been pulled from the Cloverfield Universe we can only speculate, however many fans have linked it to the critical outcome of the previous film in the series, The Cloverfield Paradox. While this remains unconfirmed, it may play a factor in Bad Robot's decision.

Overlord is set to hit theatres on October 26th, and stars Jovan Adepo, Jacob Anderson, Pilou Asbæk, Iain De Caestecker, John Magaro, Wyatt Russell and Bokeem Woodbine.

All Updates to 04182028.com



Since our initial article on 04182028.com, the site was updates numerous times during the ARG. The following will be all the updates to the site in chronological order, starting with the discovery of the site. To find out more about how the entire ARG progressed, check out reddit user u/blueonred, who helpfully created a whole thread outlining it. The Youtube channel 'Cloververse' has also collected all the videos from the Cloverfield movies ARGs spanning 2007-present. All videos seen and connected with 04182028 are available there.



01/19/18

Initial 04182028 site is found. Our article on it is available here.

01/24/18

04182028.com is updated with a new video. The visual aspect is still mostly distorted, with a few new frames of the figure visible in video 1.

The transcript for the video seemed to be a news broadcaster:

"Welcome to the show... Cloverfield Station...joining us today...controversy... Mark Stambler, author of the book..."

01/27/18

This update to 04182028.com welcomed a new video with cleaner audio. The same figure that was in videos 1 & 2 (the consensus being that this IS Mark Stambler) is seen more consistently.

The transcript for the video:

"Woman (interviewer): Your thoughts, Professor Mark Stambler?

Mark Stambler: ... because of Tagruato... Everything that's happened, I was right. The CEI was a lie, just like I predicted in my book, the Clover-"

CEI we know is in reference to the Cloverfield Energy Initiative, that was printed on official Tagruato brochures included in the delivery of the Slusho! Truck bobbleheads.


01/30/18

04182028.com is updated once again. These updated have been coming frequently and fast, living little time to absorb information fully before the next update is flung upon us. This new video seems to suggest someone talking about a social media hoax. It mentions a location and a lamp. The transcript reads:

"... This is a social media hoax... social medium, my email...why does this have to happen again... third floor, by the lamp."



02/04/18

The trailer for The Cloverfield Paradox premieres at the Super Bowl, and in a massive twist the movie is released after the games ends on Netflix. 04182028.com is also updated. In the newest video, Mark Stambler (who is being interviewed by the woman we heard in earlier videos) reveals his book, titled 'The Cloverfield Paradox'.

Video Transcript:

"The experiment could unleash chaos, the likes of which we have never seen. You have no idea how much I would love to be wrong about this. It would be no fun for me to be right. If you want to know more, read my book..."





In The Cloverfield Paradox 
(Minor spoilers ahead for one scene in the Cloverfield Paradox)

During The Cloverfield Paradox, the distorted videos we have been seeing finally
come together in a scene taking place aboard the Shepard.

Mark Stambler is being interviewed live and we finally get to see the complete video, with proper audio and visual quality.

The interview is often cut away from or spoken over in the film, but the transcript for the interview seems to read:

Woman: Another test aboard the Cloverfield Space Station. The 47th test in just over two years is scheduled for 8:00am Eastern Standard Time. All eyes are on--

Mark Stambler: Right this minute, they are testing a particle accelerator up there, so we can learn how to make unlimited energy down here. But those who have accepted the

Woman: Why does this accelerator worry you so much? 
Mark Stambler: Because that accelerator is 1000 times more powerful than any ever built. Every time they test it, they risk ripping open the membrane of space time, smashing together multiple dimensions, shattering reality. And not just on that station, everywhere. This experiment could unleash chaos... the likes of which we have never seen. Monsters, demons, beasts from the sea-

Woman: To clarify, you believe their efforts to solve the energy crisis might unleash demons?

Mark Stambler: Yeah. Oh, yeah. 

Mark Stambler: And not just here and now... in the past, in the future, in other dimensions. You have no idea how much I would love to be wrong about this. 

Mark Stambler: If you want to know more... read my book--



Suzanne Cryer, also newswoman in The Cloverfield Paradox
Note some small and interesting points in the scene:

- The woman interviewing Mark Stambler is actress Suzanne Cryer, who played the woman trying to get into the bunker in 10 Cloverfield Lane.


- The @Paradox_Is_Real account (that is seen under Mark Stambler on the screen in the movie) is real account on Twitter, created in January 2018. Currently there is no content on the page. The official Cloverfield Paradox twitter page recently tweeted this in reply to Chris O'Dowd (one of the actors in TCP)-




Hinting at the fact that this is either a still more of the ARG still to come, or a cheeky wink to the audience and ARG players. This is where 04182028 has led us, up to this moment.

Cloverfield Paradox to debut on Netflix TONIGHT after the Super Bowl


While the Cloverfield Paradox trailer said "Coming Very Soon", the Netflix iOS app says that Cloverfield 3 will be available TONIGHT, after the Super Bowl. 

* Thanks to Kevin S for the tip!

The Cloverfield Paradox Superbowl Trailer


Here is the trailer for Cloverfield 3, which is now officially called "The Cloverfield Paradox".

The trailer also confirms the rumor that it will go straight to Netflix, and NOT be shown in theaters.

Tagruato Update - Road Closure


The Tagruato website was updated again today, with an image of an Israeli news article from 1/30/2007 which, according to Redditors snirOP & AlphaFalccon, discusses a road being closed for several weeks.

Scrawled across the article is another warning message from TIDO Wave:

TAGRUATO'S REAL REASON TO STEAL THE REST OF THE WORLD'S ENERGY. THEY'VE SPENT TWENTY YEARS (????) TO OPEN IT. NO MATTER THE COST TO THE WORLD.

Cloverfield 3 ARG 04182028.com Website





A new website has been discovered, found through deciphering information in the distorted text underneath the error message on tagruato.jp. Reddit users Camille and MagicJesus were able to break down the text, finding that it reads-

Tokyo – January 18 2018: Tagruato has begun development on a revolutionary new energy technology in what Ceo Ganu Yoshida called a technological great leap forward for our planet. This renewable technology will take at least 4 years to complete along with another six years International regulatory bodies to bring the powerful revolutionary energy source by April 18 2028.

From there, 04182028.com was discovered using the date (April 18th, 2028) similar to the original Cloverfield's infamous 1-18-08 site. On the website was a 11 second video, featuring distorted images and audio, including frames where a face is clearly visible. The video is available here



The audio from the video was then examined extensively, resulting in words being distinguishing-able. Reddit and Discord users have so far been able to discern the following-

"...That is why I'm trying to warn you about the dangers of what Tagruato is trying to do..." 

The end of the message is much harder to hear, though it is speculated it reads-


Helios Spacecraft
"That is why we must now battle to save the helios." (Which would make sense as the Helios are a pair of spacecraft probes launched into orbit to study solar processes, and could relate to the 3rd Cloverfield film). 

For now we are still trying to examine every aspect of the video and see if we can find any other clues, messages or codes within the video.

Slusho Truck Update, Bobbleheads and Brochures


A Slusho truck appeared at Comic-Con last July, and was giving out free drinks, and other surprises. Some people that were there are now receiving Tagruato swag in the mail. Imgur user narciee shows the unboxing of their package.


The return address of the package is listed as Tonopah, AZ, which was one of the stops of the Slusho Truck, and also the site of the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station.


Just like in the original Cloverfield ARG, the items were wrapped in a Japanese newspaper.

The package contained a Slusho Bobblehead, a certificate of authenticity, and a Tagruato brochure explaining the Cloverfield Energy Initiative (CEI). The brochure also mentions: Seabed Nectar (aka Kaitei No Mitsu), Quantum Biology, Exo-meteorology, centrifugal force-based artificial gravity.

 

Here is the full text of the brochure:

Overlord is Cloverfield 4

Let the 'Cloverlord' theories begin...

It seems that the fourth film in the Cloververse has been confirmed to be the movie 'Overlord', and the movie has already been filmed! There was some speculation in early 2017 that this would be the case, but the rumour was not confirmed... until today.



Overlord is reported to be a World War II mystery/thriller, starring Wyatt Russell (who previously worked with Dan Trachtenberg on the Black Mirror episode 'Playtest'), Jovan Adepo, Bokeem Woodbine, Jacob Anderson and more. The synopsis for the movie reads:

"On the eve of D-Day, American paratroopers are dropped behind enemy lines to carry out a mission crucial to the invasion's success. But as they approach their target, they begin to realise there is more going on in this Nazi-opccupied village than a simple military operation. They find themselves fighting against Supernatural forces, part of a Nazi experiment."

Overlord is directed by Julius Avery and is set to release October 26th of this year, but considering the delays on the third film and the fact that there is only a matter of months between the two movies, it would not be surprising to see Overlord delayed, possibly into 2019.

The premise of having a Cloverfield film that is set before the first movie will be a new and refreshing instalment in the series, perhaps providing some backstory or origin to the first film.

 While the movie has been wrapped under a heavy layer of secrecy, like all both Cloverfield movies before it, some pictures of the set & cast have been uploaded to IMDB. You can see those photos here. Some pictures were also also found coming from the crew of Overlord (via Instagram), presumably when the film had wrapped. They used the hashtag #overlordmovie.

Tagruato Update - Cloverfield Energy Initiative


The Tagruato.jp website has been updated again, with another new error message.

The latest memo talks about "The Cloverfield Energy Initiative", which will reshape "the way we power the world". Whatever this project is, someone is trying to stop it (TIDO Wave?).

There is a warning message scrawled across the tap which might read (according to DamienJohn of Reddit):
SOMEONE MUST STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING! THIS IS NOTHING BUT A COVER FOR A RECKLESS EXPERIMENT THAT WILL RESET THE WORLD'S GRID. STOP THIS TO SAVE THE WORLD.  
T.I.D.O. WAVE

Tagruato Update - Oslo Memo


The Tagruato.jp website has been updated again, with another new error message.

While there doesn't appear to be anything to the error message itself, you can separate it from the underlying page, which reveals some interesting information, although it is mostly distorted.

The 'Olso" memo, dated January 22, 2022, talks about an "Energy Revolution" and mentions the companies "Oslo One" and "Norway Renewable".

It also mentions 'something' being added at record pace, by a ‘Paulo Hydroelectric’.

The rest of the memo is hard to make out.

Cloverfield 3 ARG has begun at Tagruato! - Updated


The Tagruato.jp website has been updated, so it looks like the ARG (Alternate Reality Game) for Cloverfield 3 may be underway.

Tagruato is the fictional parent company to Slusho!, the frozen beverage featured prominently in the original Cloverfield ARG.

While the website doesn't appear to do anything at first glance, maybe there is something to the error message:

06110-.,&0tm_auth=6l0H7iMgYrWnr6ciiW69zg&gt6_pre2028%-66*nt--d0--18,=--..,.,n-0061026873966

UPDATE: The image on Tagruato.jp has changed slightly, and the error message is also different:

Happy 10th Birthday 1-18-08






This January marks the 10 year anniversary of the release of Cloverfield on January 18th, 2008.




In terms of the A.R.G, it's been over ten years since the original trailer premiered and viral marketing sites like 1-18-08*, Tagruato, Slusho, TidoWave were found. Who knew that we would still be anticipating the third film 10 years later?

10 Cloverfield Lane came as a pleasant surprise in early 2016, sporting another Alternate Reality Game, 8 years after the first film in the Cloververse. Hopefully the 're-branding' of the Cloververse as an anthology series means we can expect more original films in the future, under the umbrella of the Cloverfield name. As JJ Abrams stated in an interview with Vanity Fair:

"It's like Cloverfield is the amusement park, and each of these movies is a different ride in that park."

After the past entries in the Cloververse, it's exciting to anticipate what the future of the series will hold, especially with the plans that JJ Abrams has for the Cloververse.

So here's a thank you to all the blog-readers, Unfictioners, Redditors and internet-scavengers that have been here from the beginning, for 10 long years. Here's to anyone who has joined along the way. And here's to anyone who will find us in the future. Welcome to the world of Cloverfield... and always remember:

It's a lion, and it's huge.

Happy 1-18-18.

Cloverfield 3 Update- Now coming April 20th


After another delay, the third Cloverfield Movie (still currently untitled) is now scheduled to hit theatres on April 20th, 2018

Paramount Pictures has confirmed that the highly anticipated third Cloverfield movie has now been delayed for the third time. Ever since the Slusho Truck appeared at San Diego Comic-Con, we've been eagerly awaiting the next step in the third movies Alternate Reality Game. However, there hasn't been any progression within the ARG or the marketing for the film, with no trailer, poster or promotional material being released. 

Since this most recent delay, we are looking forward to hopefully receiving all of the above in the next coming months, in time for the April 20th release date.

Cloverfield 3 Movie Delayed Until 2018




It seems the appearance of the Slusho Truck at San Diego Comic Con has marked the beginning of an exciting new chapter in the "Cloververse". Surely this signals the imminent start of the ARG for Cloverfield 3.

There has been a lot of speculation that 'The God Particle' would become the next movie in the “Cloververse”, however screenwriter Orn Uziel confirmed in May the 'The God Particle' script would be rewritten so it could be turned into the third Cloverfield movie.

Originally scheduled for release on February 24th, 2017, it then got pushed back to October 27th. Then at this year's San Diego Comic Con, it was pushed back again to February 2nd, 2018 —and the name "The God Particle" was officially removed and replaced with "The 2017 Cloverfield Movie". This almost certainly means that the film will receive a new title before it's release in February next year.

This news, while surprising, may have been a strategic move by Paramount and Bad Robot. Sources have reported that Jigsaw (the 8th film in the Saw franchise) opens on the same date, October 27th, and going up against an iconic horror franchise right before Halloween could result in a challenging opening. Perhaps Bad Robot and Paramount didn’t want to risk sharing an opening day with such a large, moneymaking franchise.

With all this news, hopefully we are going to get some new intriguing leads to the new ARG soon. Especially now, with just over 6 months until the release of 'Cloverfield 3', it certainly feels reminiscent of the amount of time Cloverfield’s ARG had to develop. Nevertheless, it’s going to be very exciting to see how this ARG plays out!

What are your thoughts on the new information?

Slusho Truck at Comic-Con 2017


Steve Zaragoza, from the Cloverfeels Podcast, spotted a Slusho truck outside of Comic-Con last week, handing out free drinks. #InGame

The truck displayed a new twitter account - @SLUSHOTRUCK - and based on some of the tweets, it appears to be driving around the country.

Is The "God Particle" The Next Cloververse Movie?


There has been a lot of speculation about the next JJ Abrams movie, God Particle, and whether or not it will be connected to the "Cloververse".

Here is a synopsis of God Particle, which was written by Oren Uziel, and will be directed by Julius Onah:
The story, set in the near future, centers on a team of astronauts on a space station making a terrifying discovery that challenges all they know about the fabric of reality, as they desperately fight for their survival. 
This scenario certainly sounds very similar to the audio recording that Howard left at the dead drop, assuming what they find is aliens. 

Howsoever anything is certainly possible, I don't think this will have anything to do with the Cloververse.

But Space!?! And Aliens!?!

10 Cloverfield Lane International Poster - Spoliers!


The 10 Cloverfield Lane Thailand facebook page has a new 10 Cloverfield Lane poster which contains a major spoiler, revealing something that happens at the end of the movie.

It's a completely different approach to marketing the film, and ruins the surprise of the 'monster' at the end of the movie. However, since this is a Cloverfield movie, most people assumed there would be some kind of monster somewhere in the movie, so it's hard to say how much this would affect the impact of that scene.

Here is the full poster:

Swamp Pop Moves Long-Term Storage


Swamp Pop, the non-fictional drink that appears in 10 Cloverfield Lane has made some changes to their website.

They have removed the "Long-Term Shelter Supply" item from their online store, and now there is a a Long Term Storage link at the bottom of their home page.

The blurb on the page is longer and slightly different than the old description:
INTERESTED IN LONG-TERM STORAGE?

Swamp Pop Sodas is happy to offer a long-term storage supply option, formulated to sustain peak flavor and carbonation for up to fifteen years in proper dry storage conditions. This service is available by special request only due to the large quantity and special process required. Our standard products are still available for purchase from our web store and from retailers throughout the US.

Note: This item unavailable until further notice. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Also, the "alt text" for the fall out shelter image is "4.8.13", which mirrors the original item's price of $4813.

This still doesn't mean that Swamp Pop is "in game", Mike. IMO, it looks like they're just having a little fun, but don't want people trying to contact them about this anymore.

International 10 Cloverfield Lane Trailer - Spoilers!



The international 10 Cloverfield Lane trailer takes a much different approach to marketing the film, specifically highlighting what takes place outside of the bunker, and revealing the monsters that live outside the bunker.

Here are some of the very spoilery screenshots:

The Original 10 Cloverfield Lane Script: The Cellar


In recent interviews, JJ Abrams has stated that 10 Cloverfield Lane was based on a spec script that he received. The script was titled "The Cellar" and was leaked long before the move came out.

This has been a major spoiler topic over the last couple of months, but now that the movie has been released, it's interesting to see how the original script compares to the finished movie.

The core bunker story is essentially the same, although the characters and their motivations are all slightly different.

The changes are significant enough that I don't think we can draw any conclusions about the movie from the script, but it is an interesting read nonetheless.

btm29 at Reddit has posted the PDF version here.

Give it a read and let me know what you think!

UPDATE: Paramount has the script removed from dropbox with a DMCA takedown notice. If anyone has a mirror link or a torrent of this, let me know in the comments.

In the mean time, I'll post a brief summary of the script and the differences with 10CL soon.

The Last Scene of the Original Cloverfield Movie: Splashdown



On the Blu-ray & DVD versions of Cloverfield, you can clearly see "some thing" falling from the sky and into the ocean in the very last scene of the movie.

During the Cloverfield ARG, we were told that this was a piece of the Japanese "ChimpanzIII" satellite. However, just like the Chuai "oil drilling" station, this was probably a cover story by Tagruato to cover up something much bigger.

NOTE: Be sure to set the video to HD quality and view it full screen.

I have plotted the trajectory of the splashdown so you know where to look:

New Voicemail From Howard On Megan's Phone


Megan's cell phone has finally received a new voicemail from Howard!

helveticatt, the owner of Megan's phone, has posted a recording of his latest message.

The recording is a little hard to hear clearly, but here is what I think he is saying:
It's my fault, I see that now(?).
Now it's too late for you to leave Chicago.
I was(?) never going to see you again.
You were my little girl, and it was my job to protect you. I failed.
I'm going to make it up to you, I know how to make it right, I promise.
UPDATE: Here is a mirror of the voicemail file if the link above is not working:

10 Cloverfield Lane Early Screenings Tonight

While the official release date for 10 Cloverfield Lane is 3-11-2016, tonight is "Early Screening" night - the first night that it is available to the general public.

It is currently "Certified Fresh" at 91% by Rotten Tomatoes, and Tribeca Film called it "The Best Big-Studio Sci-Fi Film In Years."

I loved it, and after two months of anticipation, it exceeded my expectations.

I have added two polls to the side-bar so you can weigh-in on what you thought about 10 Cloverfield Lane, and how it compares to the original Cloverfield.

If you have seen the movie, let us know what you think!

New Outgoing Message On Howard Stambler's Phone


Howard Stambler has a new outgoing message on his cell phone. It sounds like he is getting ready to head to the bunker!
This phone belongs to my daughter.
I don’t know how you got it,
but it doesn't matter much anyways.
It’s happening…
and, I wish everyone just listened to me.
I could have helped you all if you just listened.
Howard also texted Megan's phone, asking her to delete all the messages in her voicemail box so he could leave her a new message:

I don't care who you are, but if you are with my daughter, clear your voicemail so I can give you a message to her.
No word yet from the owner of Megan's phone if Howard ever left a voicemail...

10 Cloverfield Lane Poster Giveaway at IMAX Theaters


AMC IMAX Theaters will be giving away exclusive Saul Bass style 10 Cloverfield Lane posters.

PS, if you are going to see 10 Cloverfield Lane, and you have the option to see it in IMAX, I highly recommend it!

Fun And Pretty Things Update - Message From A Frenemy


There is a new mysterious message on the FAPT chat page. It appears that a colleague of Howard has reached out to Howard using FAPT to pass a secret message.

The initials of the poster, NR, likely match the name of fellow Bold Futura employee Nikolia Roza.


Linked in the message is a strange audio file, which starts out as haunting music, but appears to contain some sort of encoded message.

The file is called my_audio_file.mp3 in the message, but when you download it, it is named T_03072016_6SW.mp3

Andrew posted in the comments that the file is encoded using a HAM radio technique called ssTV (Slow Scan TV). Essentially, it allows you to broadcast images using a radio signal.

Playing the audio file, while running a decoder program (I used MMSTV), the signal generates this hidden image:

Life Preserving Information Update - I'm Not Wrong About This


There is a new entry on the Life Preserving Information page on the FunAndPrettyThings website.

In the latest update, it sounds like Howard may be giving up up on hearing from Megan.
