How Cloverfield Paradox Ties Together the Cloververse
The Cloverfield Paradox released in surprising — but appropriately Cloverfield — fashion on Netflix after almost zero marketing for the film. And while the movie may not be the best entry in the Cloververse, Paradox unexpectedly offers a lot of connective tissue tying together the disparate films in the series.
Paradox doesn’t offer a conclusive explanation of what happened, but there are plenty of clues to suppose just how a monster attack on New York, an alien invasion around the world, and a space station’s dimension hopping all fit together.

The Cloverfield Paradox’s 5 Biggest WTF Questions
Full SPOILERS follow for The Cloverfield Paradox.
While many were stuck on the couch in a post-Super Bowl food coma, Netflix dropped The Cloverfield Paradox for all of us to watch while we let the nachos and chicken wings digest. Unfortunately, what we got was a bit of a mess (check out our full review here!) that had us scratching our heads, wondering what in the heck we just saw. So that can only mean that it’s time for our 5 biggest WTF questions about The Cloverfield Paradox...
The whole notion of the multiverse throughout the film is absurd. All the rules are seemingly thrown out the door once the particle accelerator goes off. With most interdimensional shows, like The Flash and Counterpart, there seems to be some rhyme or reason why something is different. A bad decision or a tragedy in a person’s life can drastically affect who they turn out to be. But monsters coming out of the sky -- how does that work?

"Well, to be perfectly honest, I didn't really expect that to be a topic among fans." Koizumi explained, adding "Once I heard that people were talking so much about Mario's belly button, it made me start to think about whether we should revisit the topic on the design side".

Over two years after its release, a hidden cutscene within Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain has suddenly been unlocked, and Konami says it's not sure what caused it.
The nuclear disarmament cutscene was discovered by dataminers, and subsequently posted on YouTube, shortly after The Phantom Pain was released in September 2015.
