UPDATED: Just saw over at ComingSoon that Vulture has more info on this that definitely goes into Spoilerville. Don’t read their articles if you don’t want to know. I won’t post what it is here.
It seems that J.J. Abrams is all about secrets. Fans of Alias and Lost can attest to that. Three years ago, in front of Transformers, there was a little-known teaser for a film that turned out to be Cloverfield. And that Star Trek Enterprise construction teaser managed to whet our appetites for a franchise that had grown old and stale. I’m willing to bet that Abrams is still the only one who knows why Felicity really cut her hair. And God only knows what the hell Tom Cruise has told him.
Anyway, Drew McWeeny over at Hitfix is reporting that Abrams has managed to keep a project titled Super 8 completely under wraps, even though he’s shot a new teaser trailer for it. Well the secret will be out this Friday, when the trailer premieres in front of Iron Man 2. Head on over to Hitfix for more details, including a video of J.J. explaining his rationale for keeping a mystery box.

I hope it's for Lost: The Movie, and it's 98 minutes of them discussing their plans while walking through the jungle, only to end with a preview for a sequel where something finally happens.
I love that people find this information out, and instead of just holding off just a few days, they come out with it. I know CHUD isn't to blame, they have to report it now that it has been leaked, but come on, why can't we have anymore secrets.
Name aside, I truly did wish the secret trailer would have remained a secret. Some people just cant keep their fucking mouth shut, eh? That's what made Cloverfield so fucking epic. Yup.
Is spoiling this trailer better or worse than spoiling the post-credits scene in Iron Man 2? And how sad is it that Chud is now reporting that another site is reporting something another site has reported?
