Cloverfield Newspaper Ads

Here are some of the Sunday newspaper ads for the Cloverfield DVD:

Target has their exclusive "Deluxe Edition", which a "Rob's Party Mix" CD. It looks like it will also come with a different cover too.



Best Buy has the TJ Miller Bonus DVD.

To get an idea of what this will be like, you can see a clip from the bonus DVD here.





Circuit City has the best price for the regular DVD, and has given Cloverfield the best promotion, even putting it on their TV's!




See my previous post for a list of all the DVD versions available.

* If you see any other Cloverfield DVD ads, please let me know!

Cloverfield Exclusive - Breathe TV Spot
Uploaded by paramount

Here is the latest Cloverfield TV Commercial, titled "Breathe", bought to you exclusively by DailyMotion. There IS a very tiny, blurry, smoke-filled glimpse of the monster, but I even slowed it down and I really can't make out anything.

Cloverfield Billboards in Times Square

Here are some pictures of Cloverfield billboards in Times Square.

I think Konamouse from Unfiction said it best: "Makes me wonder if the budget for advertising and distribution is bigger than the filming budget."

In addition the the billboards, and the New Year's Rockin' Eve special, Cloverfield has been busy sponsoring a variety of TV shows on Comedy Central, Discovery, and SciFi.

UPDATE: They were apparently handing out Cloverfield cups and postcards at the Rose Bowl! Too bad there was no Cloverfield rose parade float!

* Thanks to JookNy21 for the images, Aeon for emailing me about the TV shows, and Marco for emailing me about the rosebowl!

Cloverfield WAP Site

Cloverfield now has a mobile phone website (WAP) for the movie, in addition to the Slusho! WAP found a few days ago.

There's information on the Widget contest, a movie summary, theater showtimes (coming Jan 13th), and you can download Cloverfield wallpaper and clip from the movie.

I was not able to download the movie, so let me know if it is different from what we have already seen.

Cloverfield Radio Ads

Slashfilm has an exclusive sneek preview of two Cloverfield radio ads that are scheduled to start running Christmas eve.

There is some interesting new dialog in these clips, so head on over to Slashfilm to check out these "monsterific radio spots".

* Thanks Peter!

Here is the transcript:

[Monster Roar]
HUD: Did you guys see that? Did you guys just see that?
Lily: What is it? Is it coming this way?
Matt Reeves: I saw it! Its alive! Its huge!

Slusho Commercial Contest Ads

Ads for the Slusho Happy Commercial Contest of Joy have started showing up online.

The strange thing is, there is no mention of Cloverfield. Maybe there haven't been enough submissions yet?

Speaking of contests... don't forget about the Cloverfield Widget contest, where you can help CloverfieldClues and it's readers win a hometown screening of Cloverfield, before it premiers!

Cloverfield Guerrilla Marketing

Slashfilm has a new post about some sidewalk chalk advertising Cloverfield showing up "all around" San Fransisco.

It appears this may be part of a larger, overall guerrilla marketing campaign.

The slogan "What is Cloverfield?" matches some promotional postcards I have found (more on that later). Another slogan "What Is It?" is also featured on postcards, as well as mini-posters (like the kind you would see "flyposted" on construction sites in L.A.)

The fact that the advertising began today also coincides with a job listing posted on CraigsList for seasonal help promoting a "NYC Monster" movie from December 21-January 4th (with possible extension to January 18)

I don't know if the viral marketing is winding down, but the street marketing campaign looks like it is alive and huge!
