Top 10 Reason Why I Won't Go See Cloverfield The Movie:

1. SHAKYCAM

2. The entire movie was filmed with a friggin SHAKYCAM!

3. The same reason why Transformers sucked - you couldn't see the robots because of the damn SHAKYCAM!

4. J. J. Abrams thinks he's so cool, he can film a whole movie with a SHAKYCAM.

5. Moronic movie execs spent millions of dollars that could have feed the homeless, or China for a day, on the premise that the nausea one feels watching a SHAKYCAM for 2 hours will increase it's horror potential.

6. I was burnt by Blair Witch Project already, not gonna fall for another movie with a damn SHAKYCAM as its hook.

7. I can save $10 by watching the trailer on Youtube, while my friend repeatedly hits me in the head with a baseball bat and get the same effect as a SHAKYCAM!

8. Hollywood seems hellbent on following the crappiest trend in film making, by taking what was once a minor annoyance in most action films, and devolving a complete set of shot styles to the lowest common denominator - the SHAKYCAM.

9. I was hoping this movie would have been the next Godzilla, but instead, it looks like we got Youtube -The Movie, filmed by a drunk two-year-old with a damn SHAKYCAM.

10. Going to see Cloverfield at the theaters will only validate the stupid idea of using a SHAKYCAM will make a movie about a 500 ft. tall monster seem more 'realistic'.
