From "Rob Banzai" on Ars Technica reguarding "Cloverfield":
No one really likes blowing up L.A. because we have fewer landmarks. After you take out the Hollywood sign and Capitol Records you're pretty much done. "OMG HE'S GOING TO STEP ON THE BEVERLY CENTER!" just doesn't build much anxiety.
Plus the buildings are so short you'd see Godzilla coming from a looooong way away.
The big fella would probably get frustrated from having to stomp on three story buildings instead of rows of towering skyscrapers filled with hipsters.

Some horror, science fiction, monster flick? I don't know, but I know I want to see it already! Shame that it's not about Gojira or something like that... The guy directing the flick (J.J. Abrams) was also responsible for
Lost, so it's bound to have at least some mind fscks. Wikipedia has already
gathered some info.
Thanks to
Daring Fireball for the heads-up.
