official nerdy Cloverfield discussion/speculation - SPOILERS

I liked the fake whale monster.

 

I liked that too, but imagine it being slow and having a heart attack 30 min. out of the water.

 

Not to mention that some new age label would try to market its roar as soothing music...

 

I wonder why they don't try to market Godzilla's? Maybe in slow motion aka "Chopped and Screwed" (photoshop masters, do it!)

 

If you slowed down Goji's roar, it'd probably sound like any number of Lustmord albums. But he's not a whale, so he can't be mystical new age material with rainbows and crystals in the cover art.

 

Eh, there might be a little bit of whale in Godzilla. "Gojira" was a combination of the words "kujira" ("whale") and "gorilla."

I believe the original roar was created by playing around with a big stringed instrument in a recording studio.

I liked that whale monster design, too, it fit the "parasite" thing and it was a neat looking design. I'm happier with what we got, though. Looked like a naked bat.

 

I think Ifukube used a contra bass.
