Yeah, a friend picked this version up for me, but I don't have it in-hand yet. Supposed to have an exclusive 2nd disc, too.

Very cool DVD! I couldn't see Clover all that well in the theatre, but now I can actually see what he is doing more clearly. Like the part where he turns a corner and smashes his whole body through a building head first and just demolishes it.

Also, I still don't know if he is from outer space, or the ocean. That scene at the end on the ferris wheel is so confusing.

That's a satellite falling into the ocean, which wakes up Clover. Clover is from the ocean.

Anyone got a chance to see the alternative endings? I think I saw one on youtube but it was pretty crappy.

If it comes with a second disk I got ripped off. There isn’t a place for a second disk in the box.

Here are the different versions. Best Buy and Target do come with extra stuff.

Still sounds like it came from the ocean. JJ said it, and the special effect guys said in an interview that he was initially covered in seaweed, barnacles etc., but that JJ ordered them to take it off to keep his visual origin as vague as possible.

So, he was a baby, from the ocean, awoken by a crashing satellite. How long was he down there?

I cannot wait for a sequel. I would like to know more about why the parasites cause people to bleed from their orifices, and then asplode.

Thousands of years, appearantly. o_O

And that was something else the special effects guys talked about. Appearantly, it's some kind of severe hemmorphage(spelling check) infection...
