No, he just thinks that we're all so gullible as to have already eating this bullshit hook, line and sinker, so now he's just rubbing it in. I officially hate this guy.

[the long undertow]

You guys are amazing.  I don't know what it's called when you're laughing at someone and feel pity for them at the same time, but that's what I'm experiencing right now.

I can picture poor Ric Astley (sp?) going to the theater and seeing this trailing.   

[dignan]

Man, it's like y'all have never been Rickroll'd before. 

[Bairman]

Man, it's like y'all have never been Rickroll'd before. 

I didn't even know what it meant.

But now I do.  And now I have.

My life feels complete.

[Shinigami]

I seriously can't believe you people believed that's the real trailer.  Although, having a theatrical rick'roll would be epic.

[Bairman]

Rickroll'd or not, I never believed it was a real trailer.  I'm a little smarter than that.

In fact... I'm a lot smarter than that.

[SmilinJackRoss]

Man, it's like y'all have never been Rickroll'd before. 

I guess some of us are sooooo behind the times, man.

[dignan]

Man, it's like y'all have never been Rickroll'd before. 

I guess some of us are sooooo behind the times, man.

Guess so.  Wait, are you actually upset by this?  Because if so, that's way funnier than the original prank.

[SmilinJackRoss]

Nope. I've just never heard of this Rickroll stuff.  carry on.

[dignan]

Ah, fair enough then.  Basically, as you might have figured out, it's a Youtube thing where people usually get others to click on a link to a video saying it's breaking news, and then it just turns out to be Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up."  Some people are taking it to the next level and editing Rick into the actual video to further dupe people.  I got fooled yesterday over at Film Drunk and thought I'd repost it.  That's all.

[SmilinJackRoss]

Kids these days, with their youtubes and their ipods and their Hula Hoops and their Rickrolls....who can keep up!

[Junkyard]

I'd be less gullible if I was capable of being shocked.

[Jinto]

Listening to the roar, I'd say something Lovecraftian isn't entirely out of the question, but it could be any large animal.
"This January.... GORGO."

I'm certainly hoping for something Lovecraftian. It'd be a heck of a lot better than Godzilla.

[Cosmic Muse]

The second Cloverfield/1-18-08/lame January release trailer is supposed to be attached this weekend to Beowulf, and it's hit the web, so, enjoy!

Hmmmm......maybe there's a subliminal hint here.....I guess the most unique thing about Rick Astley, other than he's a small, pasty, ginger haired Brit with a big voice is the huge pompadour on his head.....I'm still standing by my assumption that the creature is going to be Michael Bay's mutated mullet.

P.S. That music just made me get up and start dancing like Rick Astley for some odd reason.
