I think that is the direction they are going with - where some kind of incident like the particle accelerator malfunction (probably that event linked over multiple realities) unleashes something across multiple dimensions and the one(s) we are seeing in this one aren't necessarily the same as the other movies or our own.

That wasn't nearly as bad the critics said, but then I tend to make my own mid up rather than let some pretentious ********* tell me what I should be watching. OK, it wasn't the best thing but it was a pretty enjoyable new chapter in the Cloverfield series. I had just one major disappointment with it.
Oh, and it had Zhang Ziyi so it could be the worst movie ever and I'd still sit through it.
Why the hell didn't Mundy suggest they turn it off and on again the first time the accelerator failed?

This should explain things better. Why couldn't they just keep things simple ffs.

Not as good as the first two, but very welcome as a Monday Night film, included in my netflix subscription. Not sure I would have enjoyed it as much with hype, and additional expense of cinema etc... but for a "wow it's out, I can watch it now at home" to seeing it through I'm very happy.
Lol, did you sleep through the whole movie? Or were you on your phone the entire time?

Well it sounds gash.

Watched it last night and I enjoyed it, after watching I was left with questions but I didn't feel like it was a waste of a hour and half. The sound design was great throughout.
Roll on Cloverfield 4.

I think "pants" is the best descriptor I have for it. High production value with a good cast intersect with unnecessary comedy, poor story, characters and obvious
throwaway ending. Surprised it was green-lit in that state.

I'm currently half way through it, having watched it on the train this morning. It's better than I thought so far. But that could be because I was expecting something dire. I'm glad I didn't pay for it though (obviously I pay for Netflix but you know what I mean ).
An interesting observation.
There's also another one as well.
I think this is genius if it's all correct, and I am a firm believer in the alternate universes all being linked and this is indeed an origin film done in a very clever way.
I just think people expect to know everything and then get disappointed or don't think about events that aren't laid out in front of them (see critics as well) so it gets a lot of push back. I also think it's one of things you can't see if you stand too close as it were figuratively speaking.
Given how bad it was i may as well have fallen asleep.

It's no where near the level that Skyline was.

Well that was completely and utterly abysmal with not one single redeeming quality in sight.

That's a bit harsh. Some of the CGI and cinematography was excellent, even if you didn't like the film itself.
I quite enjoyed it. Some cool scenes. The first Cloverfield is still streets ahead. The second one was brilliant up until a point. This sits somewhere in the middle for me.
I've just been down the lost/Cloverfield linked rabbit hole.
