This is kind of a weird compliment to be giving a movie, but the reaction of those crowds looks super realistic, like buildings are actually exploding and stuff. The time at which they start running, the patterns they run in. On point. 👌
buildings are very unlikely to explode unless there certain types of buildings, and also regardless of how big a creature is, a tank round isnt just going to piss it off, its going to take out a chunk, and if its durable enough to not get penetrated, then that whole part of the body would shatter because its too hard, samuel colt made all humans equal, abrams made all life equal
@@stormjin2242 The funny thing is, the concept of kaiju having weird side effects from being blasted apart is as old as kaiju movies themselves, with The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms having a pathogen in its blood that makes it tricky to kill without also spraying an area with a sickness. It would've been kinda neat if there was a movie where the kaiju dies in the first or second act, but the parasites living on it end up causing long-term problems. 🤔
@@gsesquire3441 look, he seems to care about his fans and actually interacts with them. It's not hard to understand why a lot of people appreciate that
me and my dad figured the parasites had a blood thinner in their saliva to increase blood flow to the bite wounds, but since its a human and not a giant monster, blood pressure is increased to the point of people popping like pimples
It makes sense, that would explain the sudden dizziness and the whole exploding, you tend to get dizzy when you go deeper underwater and then that pressure is so great that it results in an explosion.
One thing I find really.. confusing (to say the least) is that Saliva in sea creatures especially insects, when they bite you and inject this saliva, they are extremely painful depending on how much saliva was injected so considering that the girl that got bit from the creature that INJECTED SALIVA shouldn’t be in extreme pain, but in pain so great that should leave her crying IN PAIN on the ground? Or even kill her of how great the pain is unless she can endure the pain then yeah she’ll live but I still think she would be crying in pain on the ground , even I as a man I genuinely don’t know if I could endure such pain like I experienced saliva injection pain but only a small amount a microscopic amount, but the amount that those small creatures in the movie injected is not something I consider endurable as far as I know. I mean.. if I saw this in a movie that is supposed to be realistic (not Cloverfield)…. let’s just say I wouldn’t be surprised.
@@AdhvaithSaneAssuming she's not screaming in pain from the giant puncture wounds alone the saliva probably has a pretty hefty dose of pain killers in it, so she would feel way less pain than she should have
I remember back in the day me and some friends would look at the official website and see soda brands connected to the monster, so we thought it was like the video game Rampage, where people mutated into giant monsters, but this time due to soda. Looks like I was completely wrong on 2007 haha
As a kid, I used to find it heroic to save someone from a monster while risking your own life. As an 18-year-old, I kinda realize that the protagonists and side characters are stupid for saving one ungrateful ex of the protagonist. I notice this in many movies where the main dude saved his ex, his friends die, the ex's bf dies, and they are happy together? I actually cheer on the characters who flee for their own lives. It's much better than throwing the lives of your companions to save an ex who caused you nothing but hurt. 2023 Me: Well, I did not expect this to gain much interaction so thanks for reading my cringe rant. And I kinda agree with your disagreeing comments now Im a different person
@@slimbrady6691 If its something you can fight sure. But if its a giant monster taking tank shots and ripping down buildings then nah fuck that coochie theres more put there
@@slimbrady6691 He can die, Imma ride my ass out of the city. Like if my friend's ex got killed by some dickhead then I'll ride with him, but if its a monster the size of a skyscraper then fuck that
The craziest thing about this movie is how all of his friends agreed to save his ungrateful ex who brought her new bf to his farewell party. I would've bailed on him on the spot
Pathetic especially if that one person literally broke up with the SIMP, and then brought another man with her to his going away party at his own house
Fair enough, the big monster in Cloverfield is an ugly bugger, but at least you'd know he was coming. As for the parasites, they are one of the creepiest, nastiest ideas anyone has dreamt up in a long time. It's interesting to speculate if the huge monster in Paradox also dropped larger versions of them. Another excuse not to go swimming (I'm still suffering from the trauma of Jaws).
That’s a good question because it also depends on how high the clouds are so imagine if it’s as tall as how far clouds can reach but I think the video says the exact hight
if you could get thousands of bunny close together and really easy to hunt , would you go hunt days for deer in the forest ? Replace bunny with human and deer with any large mammal .
Telmo Brito yes but change up the scenario a little. Tons of said bunnies are extremely aggressive and try to kill you. Other bunnies run away or hide. Meanwhile the deer does not fight back and does not hide.
@@telmobrito519 In that scenario, it'd be more comparable to someone snacking on small stuff while cooking. Sure, humans might make a decent snack, but why put that much energy on small-scale nonsense when there are bigger foods to catch?
@@declanedmison5442 Come in, Cooper. Do you copy? Forget about Freeman. We're abandoning the base. If you have any last bomb targets, mark them on the tactical map. Otherwise, get the hell out of there. Repeat, we are pulling out and commencing air strikes. Give us targets, or get below!
Stefano the Brazilian yea but they were movie scraps. They were supposed to be different movies but along the way they just stamped the name of clover field
that would be a cool fight the adult clover field monsters vs godzilla while being smaller zillas tought enough to survive the beating and its heat beam would dice the adult clover monster
FYI: Sodium exploding in your hand wouldn't require you to dunk your hand into water. The moisture in your skin can cause this. Pure sodium samples are normally kept in caramel colored jars or bottles and these vessels are filled with an oil to keep moisture out. Holding a greasy peace of sodium for too long could cause moisture in your skin to ignite the sodium. Potassium reacts in the same way and is stored using similar methods.
I always thought that Clover was likely an ancient creature that was accidentally/purposefully awoken. The features of Clover made me think of deep-sea creatures.
@@JacksGameReviews it's called "inspiration." If you give it a good think, Cloverfield is way different from Godzilla, instead of focusing on being Epic, it focuses on Horror, surprisingly. (You don't get much Kaiju horror now and days!)
@@JacksGameReviews JJ literally said he wanted to make America's Godzilla. It's not even close to stealing or reinventing Godzilla, though, as not only are the origins TOTALLY different, but so are the messages.
@@sunsetlover123-y7c Gojira itself has its share of almost horror movies, see the original 1954 film and Shin Gojira for a good example, it has a lot of action focused movies but in its origin is pretty much about the terror of nuclear danger. As far JJ, yeah it was not stealing, he literaly saw the first Gojira movie and tought would be cool to create a american equivalent to it, a monster to represent a national tragedy, Gojira is about the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (the director and producer of the first movie saw first hand the bombing), Cloverfield is kinda a 9/11 alegoric despite being a lot less thematic than Gojira.
@@CoracaoAcidental98 I guess so, but Clover is 100% horror, Gojira is more action and sci-fi if you ask me. And yes, I knew about the fact that Clover is based off 9/11 much like how Gojira is based off nuclear use. I love the way the film makers take inspiration from said tragedies for their monsters, adds a sense of deep meaning to them.
Regarding the issue with such a gigantic creature walking on land, this monster is also a deep-sea monster. The difference in pressure alone would kill it. The famous ''Blobfish'' pictures that were popular memes back in the day are actually examples of what happens to deep-sea creatures when they are brought into surface level.
I think Clover may actually have an exoskeleton of sorts, which would help with deep-sea pressures and also pressure on land. However, I don't like arguing physics when it comes to monsters this size since we literally have no idea what their skeletal structure, let alone the composition, is. All of those deep sea creatures that die being brought up to the surface are soft-bodied, whales are rigid but definitely not structured to survive either.
That isn’t true. Dinosaurs are reptiles, vertebrates. Oxygen amount has absolutely no effect if vertebrates. And there were no giant insects during the Mesazoic. The oxygen count wasn’t high enough. If you want giant bugs look for the Carboniferous.
@@carnotv6136 I'm no paleobiologist but it makes perfect sense that larger creatures can comfortably exist due to higher oxygen amount in the atmosphere. Insects have no proper circulatory system and would benefit more from pure tissue osmosis, whereas sauropods (The largest dinos) would have had much less strain on their circulation, and can thus grow larger, if oxygen was more abundant.
@@kaydenlewis9246 Dinosaurs where probably better at taking up oxygen that's all With insects it's a different Story Insects "breath" through their surface But the bigger you get the smaller your surface area becomes relative to your Volume Soo they would need more oxygen in the atmosphere Fortunatly for them this was the case during the Paleozoic (a time before any dinosaur) Hope I could help
I remember seeing the trailer for this film in the cinema, knew nothing about the film before I did. Trailer starts off at an ordinary party, power cut, then they go to the roof to witness an explosion - trailer ends with the clawed statue head being tossed into the street. I was like WTF is this film, there was no monster in the trailer at all. Still one of the best trailers I've seen as I knew nothing about the film and it gave nothing away. I left the cinema wanting to know more about this film and couldn't wait to know what it was about and see it.
I love the idea that armour piercing ordinance designed to pierce hundreds of layers of heavy armour can't take down a organic being with what seems to have no armour plating
Except they did. They used Bunker Busters to finally take it down. Regular ordinance is not designed to penatrate and thats what they were using until the very last strike which finially killed it. Using nukes would have made the Island uninhabitable, and regular ordinance was having no effect, so they resorted to Bunker Busters. Did you even listen to the video? He even confirms that the monster is dead via the director. Not to mention the thickness of the skin to survive the depths of the ocean. In fact, the parasites should have bitten that girl in half if they used the same bite strength they use to pierce the hide of Clover. Unless they all are able to find a place where the tissue is a lot thinner or it took multiple bites with specially evolved teeth to pierce. Those bites on the chick are probably WAY deeper than they appear and she's lucky, at least for a little bit, that they didn't pierce a vital organ.
Well, what if her passive-aggressive move to attend the party can be compared to the large-scale invasion of the monster? Both led to destruction galore. And there you have a literary interpretation of the writing. 🤔
This dude had Marlena's sexy self he could have saved but he gets her killed to go save his ex-girlfriend? I don't get it. I may need to re-watch the movie though.
I was 16 when Cloverfield was aired in the theatres and I loved it from first sight because nothing is better than a shaky camera, growling monsters and undescribed emotional connection between people. But that couple’s “love montage” is so cringe! They would become a weird RUclips family channel in the future, definitely.
Clover field monster: awake SCP foundation and Monarch: *heavy breathing intestify* Edit: My comment aged like fine wine, thank you everyone for tunning in.
Love how writers try to make it seem like these giant monsters are native to the planet when they shouldn't be able to grow to that size because..... Science.
@@susten8684 because black holes are formed when a lot of atoms are compressed by heavy gravity which socks even the light in it so it's no wonder earth can have big animals
@@spygo4513 it's not the atoms that are compressesed, it's the matter, and still this doesn't have anything to do with big animals on earth, it probably wouldn't be possible because of biology, not physics
Best explanation for the explosive bite of the Clover parasites I've ever heard. That makes way more sense than a reproductive chestburster situation like most people theorized in the past.
17:54 I had no idea that weird sensation was sea lice. I had no plans of knowing, but thank you anyway. Now to add that to the list of why I don't like bathing at the beach.
"One of the most annoying couples I've ever seen in my life" I actually couldn't stand any of the main characters in this movie. Every time one of them got killed, I was like, "HA!"
Huh, honestly I never thought Clover was designed to look like an aquatic beast, much less a quadrupedal angler fish. I always thought its face was bat-like. A bat with an underbite, but a bat nonetheless. The fleshy protrusions behind its eyes, to either side of the face looked like bat ears to me, and the long spindly front legs even looked akin to how bats walk on their wing-fingers when not flying.
I was unsure upon my first viewing until the scene where it flares these protrusions. And I 100% agree with you, it's a very Bat Like creature. Perhaps one thing distressing it was a sensitivity to sound
I wish we'd gotten a proper sequel to Cloverfield. I'd love to have seen a more 'realistic' portrayal of a giant monster apocalypse. Godzilla is fun but him becoming a superhero that just fights other monsters to protect the world never feels real. A giant monster like this stomping around would be apocalyptic. Especially if there were more than one. They could have made a good series of films showing different groups of people trying to survive a world where this thing exists and has brought down society.
It kinda depends on which Godzilla movie and series you watch. Some versions of Godzilla tried to destroy cities just because and had to be killed by the military. Plus, giant monsters fighting each other isn't too out of the ordinary especially when we look at normal animals who fight each other for territory or mates.
Have you watched Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters? That might be more down your alley, though not exactly what you're describing. In any case maybe you'll like it :)
Thank you for your videos man, I got a test about evolution and I got perfect scores because of your frequent mentions of concepts regarding Darwinism.
I feel like this movie is pretty underappreciated. (NY times called it a "feature-length gimmick.") I really enjoyed it, yet literally everyone I know disliked it if not hated it. Thought it was dumb and uninteresting. This video perfectly encapsulates the intrigue I felt when watching the movie. I wanted to know more about it, why/how the monster existed. What were the creature that fell off it, where they it's babies or other creatures? Why did that woman explode after being bit. The movie gave me a odd sense of surrealism. I felt grounded in its reality. I don't watch many movies. So maybe it's just because I had already low expectations, but this is one of my favorite films.
Agreed , the reason why they take much time to kill that thing , is because saving people , they can't just bombard the monster while there is people nearby
I remember seeing about 80% of this movie at the age of 7 when my parents were watching it on TV, and hating it because of the found-footage format. Now my first thought is that Racoon City from Resident Evil took to the nuclear option even faster. It did take 3 days, but Umbrella was most definitely pulling strings to get battle data from the multiple types of B.O.W.s they sent in with the government probably desperate to actually nuke the damn city.
"When tested on humans, it turned out to be edible." ...Okay, which friggin' grad student got handed something they dug up from under the sea floor and told to take a bite?
Kinda like how people discovered cow milk. Also the sea bed nectar is the liquid from inside the creature's egg, so maybe in-universe this was seen as medicine and maybe Tagruato (Slusho's parent company) knows more than J.J and us
I mean this is us assuming the Army used AP ammo on Clover at all. We can clearly see they are firing an M109 (in the street scene it's actually a British Abbot being a stand in, later in the film an actual M109 gets stepped on) which was most likely loaded with fragmentation or HE rounds. Again, expecting small arms to do much to a creature this size is unreasonable, however if the military assumed HE would be sufficient, it's entirely possible that they all left base loaded up with primarily HE rounds. Not to mention, even with APFSDS we have no idea what the physiology of this creature really is. For all we know, and for suspension of disbelief, it is entirely possible that most shots either miss Clover entirely (due to the frantic nature of a giant creature shaking the ground and moving exceptionally fast) or hit a non-vital area on it.
@@hellcatdave1 Well I think those membranes for it's ears looked like real nice targets for some A-10s to go BRRRRRTTT on. 30mm rounds should penetrate that with ease.
Reminds me of the Deep One in the last Jonny Quest episode "SEA HAUNT" the creature was impervious to death bullets just bounced off it and fire didn't burn it.
I remember watching this movie 7 or 8 years ago. Thanks for the nostalgia and Quarantine Entertainment, my dude. Hopefully you will do a video on Crysis series. I really want some of that roanoke Science Touch to my fav fandom. Maybe Ben 10 as well cuz why not. Anyways, stay healthy and cool, my dude.
I was totally unaware this was based on a manga, that's awesome. I've been watching your vids and you've filled in so many gaps of knowledge on these movies that I've loved for years. Thank you for all your hard work on these
When you think about the parallels between Godzilla post WW2 and Cloverfield with 9/11 it sounds like a real deep thought that I lack the inteligence and patience to fully expound on in a RUclips comment section.
@j and the first Godzilla film came out in 1952, coincidentally 7 years after Japan got nuked. also movies take a long time to make my man. Writing, pre-production, filming all that jazz. I don't super know why you think 7 years is long enough that major events dont effect the artists involved but believe me, a lot of Americans were still thinking about 9/11 less than a decade later
I hate how terrifyingly adorable Clovie is. And then finding out it was just a baby with separation anxiety made me so freakin’ sad like why would you do this to me
I think it would have been better if in Paradox, when the protagonists enter earth, it'd turn out they were the ones in the background of the first Cloverfield crashing into the water which woke the monster up.
This video literally remenbered me why I love your content so much: you try to explain it as best as you can , but you also call BS when you say it, and you proceed to inform us on your theories for something similar or generally just share information related to the topic. Would you consider doing a video on the seabed nectar?
4:16 I remember the bridge and tails being the scariest part for me, I think it was the thought of the dude being crushed instantly, he evens looks up for a sec.
I really hope we'll get a movie about this monster that doesn't try to be that kind of multiverse bullshit we got in the last two "Cloverfield" movies, I just wanna see this guy either destroy more cities or get thrown into the Godzilla universe and get into a Kaiju fight
I reckon the monster and its parasites came from an alternative world (earth or other) when the events of the cloverfield paradox occurred. The paradox event likely phased the monster from it's deep ocean into our (movie) world's ocean, and then remained hidden for a long time before being discovered and disturbed, leading to the first movie. The monster might even be from a time that is ancient or far into the future, but brought to the present time of the movie when phased between dimensions. The adult seen in the paradox movie could have a similar story, but local to that version of earth. Hopefully the 4th cloverfield movie will shed some more light. It's very exciting stuff.
it's like the movie predator, it comes here to feed or is seeded here to get accustomed and then feed, stuff is talked about like this in the bible; beasts arising out of the oceans.
No ammunition can penetrate meters of steel, just milimeters and perhaps centimeters and armour piercing misiles are made for specific tipes of armour so while probably a specifically designed misile or bullet made to pierce thru large amounts of relatively soft material would work on anything if you have enough skin you can theoretically stop an explosion from a tank round
@@felipedaiber2991 armor piercing rounds can penetrate up to 80 cm of solid steel, and anti tank mini missiles up to 120cm. Big missiles like those found in planes are messured in the meters of penetration. No creature has 40 meters of skin to protect it, and even if it does, the impact zone will get blown away, and be completely exposed to more fire. Anything will go down in 2 impacts. And you can still tactical nukes, which are small nuclear bombs that can still generate up to 15.000.000 degrees celsius. There is no element that can resist an even remotely close temperature to that, its the exact same as the cemter of the sun
''Hey we found a giant monster sleeping here, what do we do?'' ''Poke it with a stick'' Monster wakes up ''Oh shit its pissed and we have no idea why'' xD
One thing that always bothers me when it comes to these monster movies is how ineffective the military is, US or otherwise. Like, let's take Cloverfield for example. If we go on the assumption that it is a deep sea animal, well first of all, the pressure difference would be enough to give it a very bad day as it's organs start to expand and it bloats up. You can see this happening with other fish that get pulled up from the lower depths of the ocean. But moving on, even if it's physiology is strong enough to withstand the effects of the massive pressure difference, it's still just flesh. Now I know what you're saying. "BuT iT hAs ArMoR!" Except no. It wouldn't need armor. A creature as large as that, who is also a JUVENILE, would have no natural predators and therefore would not need any physical armor. EVEN SO! Let's say it has armor. OK. Natural armor like chitin and keratin exists sure. Let's surmise that it's exterior is armored, which doesn't look like it considering how easily and flexibly it moves. A standard issue Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot round would be more than enough to penetrate any naturally occurring armor. This is a round fired from a mainline battle tank such as the M1 Abrams. We have such an enormous variety of weapons and ordinance that even if freaking Godzilla himself showed up, we would be able to kill it without a problem. I mean, for Christ's sake we have man portable GUNS that can kill elephants. You wanna tell me that this anglerfish looking motherfucker would last more than 5 minutes against any modern army? Nah huh. Buddy would get wrecked so hard and fast he wouldn't have time to orient his shit anywhere. The volume of overwhelming firepower would turn this thing to a fine red mist.
It's a movie, so I'm not exactly acting for realism, but you are absolutely correct. Let's ignore even the arguments about armor. Because we don't even need to speculate. We just need to ask one question. Can a bullet kill a whale? The answer is rather obviously, yes, a bullet can and will pass into a whale's skin very easily, because while they can live in high-pressure environments, that is not the same things as being naturally armored. Bullets (not even touching higher energy munitions such as tank shells) are purely a physics driven weapon,. Even if the bullet doesn't penetrate the target (which is highly unlikely given how flexible the creature is) it's still going to have an impact, because a bullet doesn't just disappear if it failed to penetrate, it'll pancake out and still exert all that kinetic energy into the target. Even if it doesn't go through, it's still gonna leave a bruise. Same with bombs. It doesn't even have to penetrate the skin to cause massive damage via concussive force. Explosion goes off close enough to the creature, and the concussive force alone can cause massive internal damage to the Hell, a standard 5.56 bullet can actually penetrate up to 3mm of RHA (Rolled Homogenous Armor) steel, which is far more structurally sound than any organic creature. It's metal that has specifically been prepared to remove structure imperfections and provide the most uniform distribution of defense possible. 5.56 still penetrated that. Not 7.62, or .50 Browning, but normal 5.56 used in almost every NATO pattern rifle. Course, in the real world sci-fi monsters don't exist, with their surprisingly unstoppable skin, so there'd be no movie if the monsters were always stopped by common ballistic weapons. But it does always seem to irk me how the physics at play almost never make the slightest lick of sense.
@@arbiterally101 Yea its on and off, one of the things I liked about king of the recent king of the monsters movie is they brought back a weapon that can seriously hurt the monsters to reinforce that humans are ALSO alpha animals. But even in godzilla they show that modern weaponry can usually hurt it... it just needs to be attached to big ass robots cuz thats way cooler. In many of godzilla's movies it can absolutely be killed but the means to kill it in those same movies don't seem very worth it since godzilla rarely ever comes to the surface and when it does it tramples like 1 city barely and then leaves for another 50-80 years. (atleast in those olden times of the big G). And then theres some forms of godzilla which are just stupendously overpowered and so ludicrously strong it makes you wonder why it's the way it is when nothing should feasibly be able to hurt it enough to warrant such outrageous natural armor (See godzilla's that survice direct meteors to the face, ones that surface getting thrown into black holes, ones that survive being actually dead etc) But yea there are alot of incarnations that can be killed by or at the very least hurt by conventional weaponry and its always wild when conventional weaponry doesn't work.... like for big ass creatures we can just be like "Oh they have a healing factor and cuz they are so big usually we can't do enough damage before they retreat to kill them" But then you have the death angels from a quiet place and they make absolutely no fking sense how they are IMMUNE TO ALL DAMAGE but simultaneously can be killed with 1 standard shotgun to the face when they lift their armor... like how did they survive that meteor impact with the earth... if sound is their weakness why didn't the military use sonic weapons? like wtf is that shit
Thank you for the parasite explanation. I have wondered why the people bitten exploded since the first time I watched this movie. All your vids are 100% A+ material and I love the diverse biological facts too.
The reason why Humans don't start mutating like the Monsters is because the monsters were on the Sea-floor, consuming MASSIVE amounts of the stuff, and as such, a Human would also have to consume massive amounts as well, which considering how addictive it is, it's not entirely impossible.
@@jakespacepiratee3740, That's what I mean. How would long term exposure change the human body? I'm curious would are cranial cavity get bigger. Would the human body be able to live without the "nectar"; after long term exposure(or generational) or become dependent on it to survive.
Thank you for finally explaining why the Statue of Liberty head got yeeted into the streets. I actually rate this movie much higher than when I originally saw it.
Awesome vid man! Didn’t know most of this about clover! I found it very interesting and also awesome! Love how the biology of the creature makes sense. Always thought that thing falling from the sky was the monster, I didn’t know their was a back story to it. I always thought it was an alien or something. This information is very cool! Thanks for sharing!
One minute in and I never knew there was a manga about this. Dude nice job, no other video I saw about the topic ever mentioned a manga as far as I remember
The prequel manga is....... interesting, to say the least. You get the feeling that the author was given an entirely different script, or at least had no idea what the movie version was supposed to be besides its appearance and general origins.
Probably one of my favourite videos from you. I’d love to hear how you think the “seabed nectar” itself works and how it has the effects it does on both people and the creatures in the film
I never understood movies like these, though arguably enjoyable to watch i can't help but to feel like the militaries around the world could EASILY eradicate a monster that seems to actually hurt from regular missiles from fighter jets.
I agree, it should of been killed before it reached land, whether by nuclear torpedo (much safer then an above water nuke for humans, though not so much for animals) or some heavy weapon airstrike. No way would the US allow this to get to the coast, before bringing out their big guns. (Big enough to kill it guns, the US was still holding back on some of its Trump cards)
@@speedy01247 exactly the troops that were deployed were probably maybe several companies that are stationed near the area and just a small portion of military capability was probably used in order to take the cloverfield monster out. There was no navy destroyers, aircraft carrier’s deploying a shit ton of fighter jets, bombers, and attack helicopters.
Not buying the Sodium explanation, why? Because i'm a chemist. The sodium would immediately react with the blood and bodily fluids before ever making it far enough into the body to cause an abdominal explosion in fact just the presence of sodium in the blood would alter the pH as it reacted creating NaOH (strong base) likely resulting in a heart attack (basically the opposite of acidosis). I think the culprit you're looking for in terms of the old sternum buster is probably more in line with Gas Gangrene (do not google images unless you want nightmares), it spreads rapidly and causes a large production of gas often causing the skin to rupture violently ejecting fluids some distance. Similar to the bite of a Monitor Lizard or Komodo Dragon it might be some kind a pathogen that lives in the saliva of the parasites that rapidly spreads throughout the victim due to higher temperatures of the body than in the deep sea. A general rule is that for every 10C/K increase you double the rate of reaction so if we say that in general its about 0C in the ocean depths and about 30C in a human you're looking at increasing the growth rate of the pathogen by a factor of 8. That seems more plausible to me.
Realism aside, I love this movie, which is an odd statement considering I've only seen it once. I can't stomach the "we got a bite" scene, gets me all pukey. Honestly, the parasites in general, from their appearance to their abilities gets me super nauseated. Within the world of realism though, the army dudes had M2 Abrams (American Tanks), which are known for turning operators of other tanks, effectively bunkers with wheels, into a fine red paste, so this creature definitely would've gotten its shit rocked much faster
@@PrinceIsot depends where you live, i guess. shorter asian folks, or just kids, might be more akin to rice, especailly if we're going the racist joke sort of lean europeans or poorer countries could go potato chips - long and lean but i'm from the US, dude, fucking full on chicken nuggets being sold as 'bite sized popcorn chicken' type shit. we'd need to put a choking hazard warning on the roof of places like walmart to warn the kaiju not to try to just swallow without chewing. throat's as big as an office hallway, well, so are they.
When I was in college I tried being friends with an Ex. I was having a birthday party and was being nice and invited her. She asked me if she could bring a new guy she was dating. I hung up on her.
This film is the greatest experience I've had ever had at the cinema. It just blew me away. Even though not everyone likes it, I love it, even now. P.S. Poor Marlena; bloody hell!
I think inside a mind has a point with the seabed nectar being part of the clover monster’s “egg” and the oil platform collecting it eventually waking it up.
It’s such a shame this series isn’t given the respect it deserves, they could’ve made such an interesting horror take on the Kaiju genre with clover, oh well we can only hope

This is kind of a weird compliment to be giving a movie, but the reaction of those crowds looks super realistic, like buildings are actually exploding and stuff. The time at which they start running, the patterns they run in. On point. 👌
Yeah. Its like those scenes in horror movies where they dont tell the actors in order to get their real reactions.
It is very relistic if this could/did halpen
buildings are very unlikely to explode unless there certain types of buildings, and also regardless of how big a creature is, a tank round isnt just going to piss it off, its going to take out a chunk, and if its durable enough to not get penetrated, then that whole part of the body would shatter because its too hard, samuel colt made all humans equal, abrams made all life equal

@@stormjin2242 The funny thing is, the concept of kaiju having weird side effects from being blasted apart is as old as kaiju movies themselves, with The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms having a pathogen in its blood that makes it tricky to kill without also spraying an area with a sickness.

Shit man..this guy is everywhere..like..it doesnt matter the topic or type of video..you will find one of his comments anyways xD.
me and my dad figured the parasites had a blood thinner in their saliva to increase blood flow to the bite wounds, but since its a human and not a giant monster, blood pressure is increased to the point of people popping like pimples
It makes sense, that would explain the sudden dizziness and the whole exploding, you tend to get dizzy when you go deeper underwater and then that pressure is so great that it results in an explosion.
Should have used alcohol
One thing I find really.. confusing (to say the least) is that Saliva in sea creatures especially insects, when they bite you and inject this saliva, they are extremely painful depending on how much saliva was injected so considering that the girl that got bit from the creature that INJECTED SALIVA shouldn’t be in extreme pain, but in pain so great that should leave her crying IN PAIN on the ground? Or even kill her of how great the pain is unless she can endure the pain then yeah she’ll live but I still think she would be crying in pain on the ground , even I as a man I genuinely don’t know if I could endure such pain like I experienced saliva injection pain but only a small amount a microscopic amount, but the amount that those small creatures in the movie injected is not something I consider endurable as far as I know.
I mean.. if I saw this in a movie that is supposed to be realistic (not Cloverfield)…. let’s just say I wouldn’t be surprised.
@@AdhvaithSaneAssuming she's not screaming in pain from the giant puncture wounds alone the saliva probably has a pretty hefty dose of pain killers in it, so she would feel way less pain than she should have

@@sunsetlover123-y7c Gojira itself has its share of almost horror movies, see the original 1954 film and Shin Gojira for a good example, it has a lot of action focused movies but in its origin is pretty much about the terror of nuclear danger.
As far JJ, yeah it was not stealing, he literaly saw the first Gojira movie and tought would be cool to create a american equivalent to it, a monster to represent a national tragedy, Gojira is about the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (the director and producer of the first movie saw first hand the bombing), Cloverfield is kinda a 9/11 alegoric despite being a lot less thematic than Gojira.
@@CoracaoAcidental98 I guess so, but Clover is 100% horror, Gojira is more action and sci-fi if you ask me.

Regarding the issue with such a gigantic creature walking on land, this monster is also a deep-sea monster. The difference in pressure alone would kill it. The famous ''Blobfish'' pictures that were popular memes back in the day are actually examples of what happens to deep-sea creatures when they are brought into surface level.
I think Clover may actually have an exoskeleton of sorts, which would help with deep-sea pressures and also pressure on land. However, I don't like arguing physics when it comes to monsters this size since we literally have no idea what their skeletal structure, let alone the composition, is.
All of those deep sea creatures that die being brought up to the surface are soft-bodied, whales are rigid but definitely not structured to survive either.

That isn’t true. Dinosaurs are reptiles, vertebrates. Oxygen amount has absolutely no effect if vertebrates. And there were no giant insects during the Mesazoic. The oxygen count wasn’t high enough. If you want giant bugs look for the Carboniferous.
@@carnotv6136 then why were they big
@@carnotv6136
I'm no paleobiologist but it makes perfect sense that larger creatures can comfortably exist due to higher oxygen amount in the atmosphere. Insects have no proper circulatory system and would benefit more from pure tissue osmosis, whereas sauropods (The largest dinos) would have had much less strain on their circulation, and can thus grow larger, if oxygen was more abundant.
@@kaydenlewis9246
Dinosaurs where probably better at taking up oxygen that's all
With insects it's a different Story
Insects "breath" through their surface
But the bigger you get the smaller your surface area becomes relative to your Volume

Fortunatly for them this was the case during the Paleozoic (a time before any dinosaur)

I love the idea that armour piercing ordinance designed to pierce hundreds of layers of heavy armour can't take down a organic being with what seems to have no armour plating
Yup
What do you mean no armor plating? That thing had 20 layers of plot armor
Don't forget these little dog sized creatures are able to apparently bite into it and cause enough damage to feed off of.
Except they did. They used Bunker Busters to finally take it down. Regular ordinance is not designed to penatrate and thats what they were using until the very last strike which finially killed it. Using nukes would have made the Island uninhabitable, and regular ordinance was having no effect, so they resorted to Bunker Busters. Did you even listen to the video? He even confirms that the monster is dead via the director. Not to mention the thickness of the skin to survive the depths of the ocean. In fact, the parasites should have bitten that girl in half if they used the same bite strength they use to pierce the hide of Clover. Unless they all are able to find a place where the tissue is a lot thinner or it took multiple bites with specially evolved teeth to pierce. Those bites on the chick are probably WAY deeper than they appear and she's lucky, at least for a little bit, that they didn't pierce a vital organ.

I can see angler fish resemblance in its jaws. The segmented tooth looking lower jaw definitely signifies anglerfish to me

I wish we'd gotten a proper sequel to Cloverfield. I'd love to have seen a more 'realistic' portrayal of a giant monster apocalypse. Godzilla is fun but him becoming a superhero that just fights other monsters to protect the world never feels real. A giant monster like this stomping around would be apocalyptic. Especially if there were more than one. They could have made a good series of films showing different groups of people trying to survive a world where this thing exists and has brought down society.
I love Godzilla movies, but he is definitely over powered to an absolutely absurd degree.
But J.J had to become a hack, or maybe he was always one
It kinda depends on which Godzilla movie and series you watch. Some versions of Godzilla tried to destroy cities just because and had to be killed by the military. Plus, giant monsters fighting each other isn't too out of the ordinary especially when we look at normal animals who fight each other for territory or mates.

I feel like this movie is pretty underappreciated. (NY times called it a "feature-length gimmick.") I really enjoyed it, yet literally everyone I know disliked it if not hated it.

What were the creature that fell off it, where they it's babies or other creatures? Why did that woman explode after being bit. The movie gave me a odd sense of surrealism. I felt grounded in its reality. I don't watch many movies. So maybe it's just because I had already low expectations, but this is one of my favorite films.

Again, expecting small arms to do much to a creature this size is unreasonable, however if the military assumed HE would be sufficient, it's entirely possible that they all left base loaded up with primarily HE rounds. Not to mention, even with APFSDS we have no idea what the physiology of this creature really is. For all we know, and for suspension of disbelief, it is entirely possible that most shots either miss Clover entirely (due to the frantic nature of a giant creature shaking the ground and moving exceptionally fast) or hit a non-vital area on it.

Well I think those membranes for it's ears looked like real nice targets for some A-10s to go BRRRRRTTT on. 30mm rounds should penetrate that with ease.
Reminds me of the Deep One in the last Jonny Quest episode "SEA HAUNT" the creature was impervious to death bullets just bounced off it and fire didn't burn it.

I remember watching this movie 7 or 8 years ago. Thanks for the nostalgia and Quarantine Entertainment, my dude.
Hopefully you will do a video on Crysis series. I really want some of that roanoke Science Touch to my fav fandom. Maybe Ben 10 as well cuz why not. Anyways, stay healthy and cool, my dude.
I remember on a whim looking at the special features and when I heard the makers say that clover was a baby...SCARED me.
I was totally unaware this was based on a manga, that's awesome. I've been watching your vids and you've filled in so many gaps of knowledge on these movies that I've loved for years. Thank you for all your hard work on these
When you think about the parallels between Godzilla post WW2 and Cloverfield with 9/11 it sounds like a real deep thought that I lack the inteligence and patience to fully expound on in a RUclips comment section.
understandable haha
Well, just hope someone smarter can get a point out of that thought.
Giant monsters are walking disasters and metaphors for real events
@j and the first Godzilla film came out in 1952, coincidentally 7 years after Japan got nuked.
also movies take a long time to make my man. Writing, pre-production, filming all that jazz. I don't super know why you think 7 years is long enough that major events dont effect the artists involved but believe me, a lot of Americans were still thinking about 9/11 less than a decade later
@j and the first Godzilla film came out 9 years after the Hiroshima bomb event, what's your point?
I'll be honest, I didn't notice some of the dialog or visual cues in this movie.
I hate how terrifyingly adorable Clovie is. And then finding out it was just a baby with separation anxiety made me so freakin’ sad like why would you do this to me
I think it would have been better if in Paradox, when the protagonists enter earth, it'd turn out they were the ones in the background of the first Cloverfield crashing into the water which woke the monster up.
would be so random tho & retconing it’s whole ARG (Cloverfields ARG)
This video literally remenbered me why I love your content so much: you try to explain it as best as you can , but you also call BS when you say it, and you proceed to inform us on your theories for something similar or generally just share information related to the topic. Would you consider doing a video on the seabed nectar?
4:16 I remember the bridge and tails being the scariest part for me, I think it was the thought of the dude being crushed instantly, he evens looks up for a sec.
I really hope we'll get a movie about this monster that doesn't try to be that kind of multiverse bullshit we got in the last two "Cloverfield" movies, I just wanna see this guy either destroy more cities or get thrown into the Godzilla universe and get into a Kaiju fight
it really was a great monster movie!
Yeah if your gonna use multiverse bullshit then use it to put it in another monsteverse
Godzilla wants to know this guy's location
Godzilla would clap his fucking cheeks.
Cthulhu Because Why Not King Kong would pull a DK side smash on Clovey
I reckon the monster and its parasites came from an alternative world (earth or other) when the events of the cloverfield paradox occurred. The paradox event likely phased the monster from it's deep ocean into our (movie) world's ocean, and then remained hidden for a long time before being discovered and disturbed, leading to the first movie. The monster might even be from a time that is ancient or far into the future, but brought to the present time of the movie when phased between dimensions. The adult seen in the paradox movie could have a similar story, but local to that version of earth. Hopefully the 4th cloverfield movie will shed some more light. It's very exciting stuff.
it's like the movie predator, it comes here to feed or is seeded here to get accustomed and then feed, stuff is talked about like this in the bible; beasts arising out of the oceans.
There's a fourth Cloverfield movie?!
Isn't clover 4 going to be set in world war 2?
Don't over complicate it.
I like the idea that it's a big fish more
The classic creature somehow completely immune to ammunition that can penetrate meters of steel.
le classic meat and bone being stronger then synthetic materials bullshit
No ammunition can penetrate meters of steel, just milimeters and perhaps centimeters and armour piercing misiles are made for specific tipes of armour so while probably a specifically designed misile or bullet made to pierce thru large amounts of relatively soft material would work on anything if you have enough skin you can theoretically stop an explosion from a tank round
@@felipedaiber2991 armor piercing rounds can penetrate up to 80 cm of solid steel, and anti tank mini missiles up to 120cm. Big missiles like those found in planes are messured in the meters of penetration. No creature has 40 meters of skin to protect it, and even if it does, the impact zone will get blown away, and be completely exposed to more fire. Anything will go down in 2 impacts. And you can still tactical nukes, which are small nuclear bombs that can still generate up to 15.000.000 degrees celsius. There is no element that can resist an even remotely close temperature to that, its the exact same as the cemter of the sun

I remember the parasites scaring me the most, and not even the monster was as terrifying. Just, one bite and your organs explode.
Same, I’m still terrified..
One thing that always bothers me when it comes to these monster movies is how ineffective the military is, US or otherwise. Like, let's take Cloverfield for example. If we go on the assumption that it is a deep sea animal, well first of all, the pressure difference would be enough to give it a very bad day as it's organs start to expand and it bloats up. You can see this happening with other fish that get pulled up from the lower depths of the ocean. But moving on, even if it's physiology is strong enough to withstand the effects of the massive pressure difference, it's still just flesh. Now I know what you're saying. "BuT iT hAs ArMoR!"
Except no. It wouldn't need armor. A creature as large as that, who is also a JUVENILE, would have no natural predators and therefore would not need any physical armor. EVEN SO! Let's say it has armor. OK. Natural armor like chitin and keratin exists sure. Let's surmise that it's exterior is armored, which doesn't look like it considering how easily and flexibly it moves. A standard issue Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot round would be more than enough to penetrate any naturally occurring armor. This is a round fired from a mainline battle tank such as the M1 Abrams. We have such an enormous variety of weapons and ordinance that even if freaking Godzilla himself showed up, we would be able to kill it without a problem. I mean, for Christ's sake we have man portable GUNS that can kill elephants. You wanna tell me that this anglerfish looking motherfucker would last more than 5 minutes against any modern army? Nah huh. Buddy would get wrecked so hard and fast he wouldn't have time to orient his shit anywhere. The volume of overwhelming firepower would turn this thing to a fine red mist.
It's a movie, so I'm not exactly acting for realism, but you are absolutely correct.
Let's ignore even the arguments about armor. Because we don't even need to speculate. We just need to ask one question. Can a bullet kill a whale?
The answer is rather obviously, yes, a bullet can and will pass into a whale's skin very easily, because while they can live in high-pressure environments, that is not the same things as being naturally armored. Bullets (not even touching higher energy munitions such as tank shells) are purely a physics driven weapon,. Even if the bullet doesn't penetrate the target (which is highly unlikely given how flexible the creature is) it's still going to have an impact, because a bullet doesn't just disappear if it failed to penetrate, it'll pancake out and still exert all that kinetic energy into the target. Even if it doesn't go through, it's still gonna leave a bruise. Same with bombs. It doesn't even have to penetrate the skin to cause massive damage via concussive force. Explosion goes off close enough to the creature, and the concussive force alone can cause massive internal damage to the
Hell, a standard 5.56 bullet can actually penetrate up to 3mm of RHA (Rolled Homogenous Armor) steel, which is far more structurally sound than any organic creature. It's metal that has specifically been prepared to remove structure imperfections and provide the most uniform distribution of defense possible. 5.56 still penetrated that. Not 7.62, or .50 Browning, but normal 5.56 used in almost every NATO pattern rifle.
Course, in the real world sci-fi monsters don't exist, with their surprisingly unstoppable skin, so there'd be no movie if the monsters were always stopped by common ballistic weapons. But it does always seem to irk me how the physics at play almost never make the slightest lick of sense.
@@arbiterally101 Yea its on and off, one of the things I liked about king of the recent king of the monsters movie is they brought back a weapon that can seriously hurt the monsters to reinforce that humans are ALSO alpha animals. But even in godzilla they show that modern weaponry can usually hurt it... it just needs to be attached to big ass robots cuz thats way cooler. In many of godzilla's movies it can absolutely be killed but the means to kill it in those same movies don't seem very worth it since godzilla rarely ever comes to the surface and when it does it tramples like 1 city barely and then leaves for another 50-80 years. (atleast in those olden times of the big G). And then theres some forms of godzilla which are just stupendously overpowered and so ludicrously strong it makes you wonder why it's the way it is when nothing should feasibly be able to hurt it enough to warrant such outrageous natural armor (See godzilla's that survice direct meteors to the face, ones that surface getting thrown into black holes, ones that survive being actually dead etc) But yea there are alot of incarnations that can be killed by or at the very least hurt by conventional weaponry and its always wild when conventional weaponry doesn't work.... like for big ass creatures we can just be like "Oh they have a healing factor and cuz they are so big usually we can't do enough damage before they retreat to kill them" But then you have the death angels from a quiet place and they make absolutely no fking sense how they are IMMUNE TO ALL DAMAGE but simultaneously can be killed with 1 standard shotgun to the face when they lift their armor... like how did they survive that meteor impact with the earth... if sound is their weakness why didn't the military use sonic weapons? like wtf is that shit

For the people who never put 2 and 2 together, Clovey the original monster is not the same one from paradox as Clovey is much smaller.
Clovey is such a cuter nickname than the actual name Clover 🤣 love that.
Thank you for the parasite explanation. I have wondered why the people bitten exploded since the first time I watched this movie. All your vids are 100% A+ material and I love the diverse biological facts too.
Wonder how the "nectar" would change/mutate the human body, and in what ways.
Have you heard of Attack on Titan?
@@shoesncheese The thing about it though is that it seems to improve mental faculties, not degrade it.
The reason why Humans don't start mutating like the Monsters is because the monsters were on the Sea-floor, consuming MASSIVE amounts of the stuff, and as such, a Human would also have to consume massive amounts as well, which considering how addictive it is, it's not entirely impossible.
@@jakespacepiratee3740, That's what I mean. How would long term exposure change the human body?
I'm curious would are cranial cavity get bigger. Would the human body be able to live without the "nectar"; after long term exposure(or generational) or become dependent on it to survive.
Erectile Disfunction for starters
Thank you for finally explaining why the Statue of Liberty head got yeeted into the streets. I actually rate this movie much higher than when I originally saw it.
Awesome vid man! Didn’t know most of this about clover! I found it very interesting and also awesome! Love how the biology of the creature makes sense.

One minute in and I never knew there was a manga about this. Dude nice job, no other video I saw about the topic ever mentioned a manga as far as I remember
Glad I could bring some more perspective!
The prequel manga is....... interesting, to say the least. You get the feeling that the author was given an entirely different script, or at least had no idea what the movie version was supposed to be besides its appearance and general origins.
Probably one of my favourite videos from you. I’d love to hear how you think the “seabed nectar” itself works and how it has the effects it does on both people and the creatures in the film
Gonna tell my kids this was a documentary
'We're going to have to go into the Manga momentarily' THERE WAS A MANGA?!

I never understood movies like these, though arguably enjoyable to watch i can't help but to feel like the militaries around the world could EASILY eradicate a monster that seems to actually hurt from regular missiles from fighter jets.
I agree, it should of been killed before it reached land, whether by nuclear torpedo (much safer then an above water nuke for humans, though not so much for animals) or some heavy weapon airstrike. No way would the US allow this to get to the coast, before bringing out their big guns. (Big enough to kill it guns, the US was still holding back on some of its Trump cards)
@@speedy01247 exactly the troops that were deployed were probably maybe several companies that are stationed near the area and just a small portion of military capability was probably used in order to take the cloverfield monster out. There was no navy destroyers, aircraft carrier’s deploying a shit ton of fighter jets, bombers, and attack helicopters.
They trying to study it and kept it alive as possible for keeping it in area 51
@@iancruz6617 You’re making his point. In real life, fear rules over curiosity.
Not buying the Sodium explanation, why? Because i'm a chemist.
The sodium would immediately react with the blood and bodily fluids before ever making it far enough into the body to cause an abdominal explosion in fact just the presence of sodium in the blood would alter the pH as it reacted creating NaOH (strong base) likely resulting in a heart attack (basically the opposite of acidosis).
I think the culprit you're looking for in terms of the old sternum buster is probably more in line with Gas Gangrene (do not google images unless you want nightmares), it spreads rapidly and causes a large production of gas often causing the skin to rupture violently ejecting fluids some distance. Similar to the bite of a Monitor Lizard or Komodo Dragon it might be some kind a pathogen that lives in the saliva of the parasites that rapidly spreads throughout the victim due to higher temperatures of the body than in the deep sea. A general rule is that for every 10C/K increase you double the rate of reaction so if we say that in general its about 0C in the ocean depths and about 30C in a human you're looking at increasing the growth rate of the pathogen by a factor of 8.
That seems more plausible to me.
No
What the fuck I googled it
I-
Never tell me not to google something ever again.
Shut up and enjoy the video man XD
Yeah I looked it up. Pretty nasty, but, nightmares? I've seen worse man
What is gas Gangrene?
Realism aside, I love this movie, which is an odd statement considering I've only seen it once. I can't stomach the "we got a bite" scene, gets me all pukey. Honestly, the parasites in general, from their appearance to their abilities gets me super nauseated.
Within the world of realism though, the army dudes had M2 Abrams (American Tanks), which are known for turning operators of other tanks, effectively bunkers with wheels, into a fine red paste, so this creature definitely would've gotten its shit rocked much faster
