Burky talks CLOVERFIELD
If there is one person outside of JJ Abrams that knows what the hell all this CLOVERFIELD business is all about - it would be Bryan Burk. And hey, look at that - SciFiWire figured that out, too! Read the interview HERE, taking special note of when JJ came up with the idea.
Here is one snippet from the article:
“It’s an entirely original story and monster,” Burk, a producing partner with Lost co-creator J.J. Abrams, said in an interview in November. “There’s no tie-in to any of our other projects quite yet. We’re obviously fans of the great monster movies. I remember when we were starting Lost, and we had references in it to all our favorite things, be it Jaws or Alien, and this feels like this is the same thing. I don’t think it feels like any other movie you have seen before, but we were definitely inspired by a lot of our favorite films.”
Ah yes, JJ and Co. are quite fond of the hommaging of their favorite movies. Also, for someone who HATES to do interviews, I think Burky does a fine job in this one.
