Ok, I have to admit it does sound a bit Lovecraftian, but really absolutely can't see HPL ever being pulled into the Hollywood mainstream at such a high level as this.

Besides the M.O. for Lovecraftian creatures isn't to stomp buildings, it tends to be more on the side of what you see in movies like EVENT HORIZON where Outside forces cause humans to rend themselves into pieces just in time for the Big Bad to come gobble up tenderized brain morsels.

Of course there is the movie coming out starring.... Tori Spelling, now that is freakin scary!!!!!

On the one hand, I'm a little sad that it doesn't sound like a straight-up monster film anymore...

...on the other, this is still going to #$%^ing own.

This is silly. I'm sorry, but a certain segment of the population on places like IMDB and AICN has really gone goofy over this. I suspect 99% of what's being posited (Ethan Haas, Cthulhu, August 1st, lions, Voltron, Freemasons, yadda) has NOTHING to do with this movie. I can't decide if the guys at Bad Robot are laughing their butts off, or terrified at the unbridled power of what happens when you don't tell your audience anything.

I saw it with fans of LOST and now it's happening again. People make connections that aren't there, see things that aren't there, and spend a LOT of energy and time in the process. They get all hyped up to the point that what comes out could never meet everyone's expectations, and today's hype machine becomes tomorrow's poop sandwich.

On this particular topic, I'm outta here, at least until there is something truly substantial to discuss. Which could be 1/18/08 for all I know!

at the very least the writings on the ethanhaaswaswrong site....defintly make it sound like Cthulhu. The writing about the end from space, anceint ones etc...

...war came, no longer from the elemental nor from the star's rain of fire. The world was again remade, and the glow was as the coming of the sun upon the Earth. The children of the gods were again too few, scattered and divided and among them walked the ancients and those whose thoughts were not as to the towers and the marvels, but to the End and the destruction of the Earth and to the fires from which nothing could escape."

not a big stretch

The teaser is probably a representation of when humanity finds out they are making a live action Alvin and the Chimpmonks.
