It implied he kidnapped and killed a young girl, so not really. Michelle should have stayed though, he clearly wasn't going to hurt her.

I don't know if this has been discussed but I watched the leak and when Michelle was crawling through the vents to get away from Howard, he yells "You can't run from them!" which shows that he knows there are aliens out there.

Guys this is crazy but I think I found something nobody has found yet. At the end of the movie as MEW is driving away the mailbox says 10 Cloverfield Lane on it. I think that has a connection with the title of the movie. This movie gets more and more complex as I continue to watch it!

Maybe he did. He just didn't reveal it because he very likely knew the truth and it would be a futile effort, and due to his crippling autism, he believes it would be used to escape and bring harm to the shelter. Or maybe he was too fat to fit in any production hazmat suits

It is theorized that Emmett would fit and in fact has been through there and killed Megan in the air handler room. Couldn't have been Howard considering the padlock is in the inside and he wouldn't fit. Emmett however suggests that he knows his way around the ducts when he volunteers to Howard, but Howard dismisses the idea because of his arm and how he wouldn't fit anymore with him in a sling.

considering the short time Michelle was locked up, the killing of Megan took place before the outbreak, or in the short timespan Michelle was isolated? And the padlock on the inside of a room only accessible through an air vent, in a bunker made for an overweight man?

i'm left in mystery
>>
>>69226409
He knows the ducts because he was the contractor who helped built it

He volunteered but there is no way he would have fit
>>
>>69226944
Megan in all likelyhood died a while before the outbreak. I think Howard suspected Emmett, or at least Emmett also knew Megan and was creepy about it, considering how hostile and protective Howard was towards Michelle, and how hostile and suspicious of Emmett he was the whole time.

>>69227062
If he built it, he'd have known that he wouldn't fit, but instead he volunteers pretty quickly.
>>
>>69226472
>>69226409
>autistics say the darndest things

where the fuck do you retards come up with this shit. emmet knows the ducts cause he helped build the shelter. he wasn't living there before the events in the movie, he never killed anyone down there what the fuck are you talking about?

howard was a fucking psycho who wanted a surrogate daughter and he was using the bunker as a jail for girls he abducted. emmett is only there because he forced his way in as howard was coming back with a new victim.

this movie is really fucking straightforward but you dipshits are trying to make it better than it was
>>
>>69227162
He was being nice
MEW was the only one who can fit and she barely makes it
>>
>>69226409
>>69226944

There was no fucking padlock ever show blocking the hatch from the common room to the air filter room. It is never explained what was blocking the hatch, but Howard had full access to the room in the past.
>>
>>69227171
It wouldn't make sense that Howard was able to kill Megan/Brittney in the air handler room though, since it would be impossible for him to enter and leave the room in the condition it was in. The only other character that knows of the location and has enough clues to fit is Emmett
>>
Did people really not understand the movie ?
MEW built the bunker and was keeping John goodman prisoner

Jeez fucking pay attention
>>
>>69227247
No, the exterior hatch is padlocked from the inside. Howard could not enter from this side, or if he padlocked it later, his only exit is through the air duct which he cannot fit through. Thus it is impossible for Howard to access this room
>>
>>69227247
There was a padlock on the inside, retard.
>>
>>69227239
And if he was wrong, he'd be stuck with no way of rescue and everyone dies. If he built it, he knows better than to offer such a dangerous thing
>>
>>69227257
She didn't die in the fucking air conditioning room
She escaped into it and wrote "help" on the window which was padlocked (it was built with a padlock on I guess...though that makes it impossible to get into from the outside without smashing the plastic)

She then went back through the vent where eventually John goodman killed her . Probably for trying to escape

Goodman never knew she wrote "help" on there or he would have replaced it

MEW actually has plenty of space in the duct. Someone larger could easily fit

If I was Howard I'd rather shoot Emmet in the face right then and there, rather having him flirting with my waifu for the longest time. I know he was autistic, but he wasn't stupid. He surely should have known sharing his waifu would be impossible living situation.
>>
>>69227257
Howard had full access to the room. The hatch got blocked sometime after the aliens showed up, it isnt like he designed a bunker where he couldn't get to one of the most vital components.

Britanny was killed before the movie and disposed of in the acid barrel, it is never even suggested she was murdered in the air filter room, just that she had been there at one point and left the message+earring.
>>
>>69227471
Do you have a link to your YouTube channel discussing Facts I Might Have Missed?
>>
>>69227404
Howard never knows it has help written on it because he didn't do it. The earring appears to be torn from her ear, and dropped in the room. She has plenty of other tools in the room to scratch the window. Plus the hatch window cover is extended just enough to make the help and blood less visible from outside because whoever did it couldn't replace the thing and could only do what he could to cover it up
>>
>>69227327
>>69227351
That padlock is from air filter to oustide, there is another hatch Howard tries to open that goes from the food room to the filter room - but it was blocked sometime since they started living there.

Actually watch the fucking movie instead of googling retarded theories.
>>
>>69227479
Yeah that is the biggest flaw of the movie. Howard clearly has no qualms about killing someone in cold blood, so it makes no sense that he didnt dispose of Emmett before MEW wakes up.
>>
>>69227484
The room is only accessible from the outside
Though he some how put a lock on it from the inside

Maybe the entire hatch is removable from the outside (and also it's locked
>>
mews sweaty ass face turned me on
>>
>>69227458
Basic human interaction wouldn't be to offer to do something that would get everyone killed.

>>69227484
>>69227534
The hatch probably led to an alternate set of controls and an access port for maintenance of the filter system, probably directly below the system. This doesn't mean that the hatch leads to the room. Especially considering that MEW doesn't unblock the hatch and there's no other way to enter the room from what's shown.

John goodman was the girl
She was trapped down in the bunker for so long she became fat
Emmet was an alien that's why he said he could fit through the vent (he's a shape shifter)
MEW was a ghost and that's why no one interacted with her
The aliens were actually robots from the soviets

Did people Really not pay attention ?
>>
>>69227634
Basic human interaction would be a guy trying to impress a cute girl by offering to do something even though it would be impossible
>>
>>69227678
No you dumb fuck. That just goes to an alternate set of controls and maintenance port. Why would MEW not unblock the hatch when she made it through if it led to the room? Why is that entrance not shown if it leads to the room? Why would Howard design it so that he has to expose himself to contaminated air when he had to service it or access controls?

Howard probably built the air conditioning room first and put the padlock on. after that he buildt the duckt and rest of the bunker. Realizing his stupid mistake he sent his kidnapped girl through the vent to remove the padlock, which he had also padlocked on the outside at this time. The girl only scrawled help on the inside, knowing goodmans fat ass could never reach this room, then she promptly crawled back out.

goodman was angry at this, and dumped her in acid.
>>
>>69227678

They didn't imply anything, it's literally smacked over your head. The girl wasn't his daughter, Emmett said his sister when to HS with the girl who went missing.
>>
>>69227815
or maybe he lured her there, she climbed through vent, noticed there was no way out, climbed back, got caught, and got thrown in acid

You could just screenshot this other entrance to the room. And then explain why MEW doesn't bother unblocking the hatch since it's so crucial to their survival.

>And then explain why MEW doesn't bother unblocking the hatch since it's so crucial to their survival.

if youare gonna just make up stupid theorys, maybe because she doesnt unblock it because it is a place she can access that howard currently cant? Did you think of that you stupid fuck? also it is where she plans to escape from, why would she give howard quick access?

Except she's not planning on escaping at that time, and it would benefit her to have a quick way into that room instead of crawling through like 20 meters of exposed constricted venting. Plus if it were possible to unblock the hatch, Howard would have told her to do so and shit on her for not doing it when she came back

By any screenwriting standards, absolutely yes.

He says her mother turned her against him and they moved across the country away from him.

We then learn from Emmett that the girl in the picture wasn't his daughter but a girl that went missing.

We find out that the girl was also kept in the bunker against her will, having used her earring to write help on the hatch.

We later find out that he keeps a body-sized barrel of human-dissolving acid and is obviously familiar with that whole process.

there's literally no evidence to support that it was him. if the screenwriters wanted you to think emmet was the bad guy, there'd be more definable proof.
>>
>>69234968
doesn't matter what the writers want. its OUR film now boy
>>
>>69234968
There's a decent amount and it fits. That's not to say that it is, but out of the 3 characters in the movie with any background, he fits the best. They clearly want you to think it was Howard regardless of if it were true. That doesn't necessarily mean it couldn't have been the writers intention for Emmett to be the true killer.
Plus the whole saying how creator's intent should have no bearing on how art is interpreted
>>
So the theory being thrown around itt is that emmet was the killer because he could fit through the vents? Are y'all saying he killed the girl up in that room?
>>
>>69235087
>There's a decent amount and it fits.
There fucking isn't and it doesn't. He's a classic kill the dog character. He's naive, well-intentioned, and borderline retarded. He stupidly put himself out to help MEW, because he's an inherently, self-destructively altruistic person. He's the human equivalent of a good dog. And the previously ambiguous antagonist shoots him in the fucking face.
>That doesn't necessarily mean it couldn't have been the writers intention for Emmett to be the true killer.
It wasn't. Emmett wasn't keeping a girl in Howard's bunker. Emmet wasn't the one obsessed with living in a bunker with a girl that looks and dresses like his daughter. Emmet wasn't the one with the fucking human-dissolving acid. Emmet wasn't the one that was OBVIOUSLY waiting for Emmet to give him a reason to shoot Emmet in his face. That shit was Howard. It was a crazy-person rape bunker first, and a doomsday bunker second. Howard was clearly a delusional murderer, he just happened to be right about the benefit of having a bunker.
>>
>>69235163
Impossible for Howard to reach the room, Emmett had access and fit through there and claims to know how to navigate the vents. Howard has clear issues with him.
>>
>>69235236
I don't see how being able to get into that room makes emmet the murderer
>>
>>69235163
Anyone who thinks that shit is fucking retarded. At some point the girl that Walter had previously tried to do the bunker scheme on was sent up, like MEW, to fix the air machines. At some point she carved HELP with her earring while up there.
>>
my dick cannot get enough of dat ass
holy shit those legs HHHNGNNGNGNGN
>>
>>69235233
So basically you just want to entertain basic tropes even when the movie provides evidence of something more. Nothing you said disproves the Emmett theory.

>>69235264
I clearly wrote more than just Emmett fits in the duct
>>
>>69235267
And then she also retracted the window cover to make the message less visible from outside. Something someone that could access the room from inside would do to cover up the message. Ok
>>
>>69235318
When Howard is watching pretty in pink emmet asks him if MEW would've touched the filters and shit. Why would he ask him that if he's been up there before?
>>
When they find out the picture of the girl wasn't actually goodman's daughter another picture falls out showing goodman and kidnapped girl on a couch together. Who took that picture?
>>
>>69235370
To trick Howard obviously. That was the whole purpose of that scene.
>>
>>69235391
Camera tripods and timers have been around a long time
>>
>>69235391
You ever heard of a timer?

>>
>>69235410
>>69235415
>>69235423
timers are gay.
>>
>>69235404
But if he's already been up there before he wouldn't need to ask that question. He could just say that she touched the filters and Howard would've thrown the shower curtain out either way.
>>
>>69235507
He's also a beta that was too afraid to assert any declarative statements which is why he kept making it a point he wasn't trying to tell Howard how to run his bunker. Emmett was contracted to help build the place anyways even if he had nothing to do with Megan so he would know regardless
>>
>>69235391
this is a good point. the obvious answer is emmett but i think it was actually the alien
>>
>>69235443
good point
>>
>>69235576
So the bloody earring is the only evidence for the girl being killed in the air filtration room?
>>
>>69235749
And the blood on the window and the partially closed window cover and possibly the jammed hatch
>>
>>69235318
Nothing you said proves the Emmet theory. Nothing in the movie even supports the Emmet theory.
>>69235360
>And then she also retracted the window cover to make the message less visible from outside.
White plexiglass scratches are more apparent against a dark background immediately behind it.

Nice headcanon though. 9/11.
>>
>>69219402
Why did Howard flip out when Michelle touched Emmet's hand at the dinner table? Why did she touch his hand in the first place? Was she trying to bait Howard into flipping out so she could steal his keys?
>>
>>69236041

Yes.
>>
>>69235978
There's already plenty in this thread that supports the Emmett theory. Nothing proves it of course but it makes him the most likely of the 3 characters.

Glare hitting it head on will wash out the scratches against a background and will mask the color of the blood left on there. Only if the light catches at weird angles will having a close dark background do anything to make the scratches more visible. Leaving it open would catch the light way better than having it all wash out from the background also reflecting off the cover
>>
>>69236171
>There's already plenty in this thread
And essentially nothing in the movie. Hence:
>Nice headcanon though.

You literally didn't understand anything about the fucking movie or Walter's charaterization. Are you memeing or are you actually this big a dingus?

All these words just to try and autistically justify your retarded theory.

Emmet didn't keep a girl that looks like Walter's daughter in Walter's rape bunker, particularly not when Walter's obvious psychosexual obsession is as explicitly laid out. Particularly when Emmet's stupid naivety literally gets him killed. Walter is the murderous psychopath in the story. We know that because we see it. You're being goddamn silly.

I'm not insisting shit. They very clearly played on a very clear trope, and very clearly did not subvert it. They shot the dog. The dog wasn't secretly Cujo. Deal with it m8.
>Good job resorting to calling people autistic when you get proven wrong though.

No, the fucking movie says it "can't be anything else." What medication aren't you taking?

How did the girl Howard Kidnapped sneak into the ducks and get into air filtration unit.
>>
>>69237156
Probably the same fucking way MEW did. He was clearly storing stuff in there and it's clearly established that the air filtration unit is prone to shorting out.
>>
>>69237054
Bringing up character tropes and archetypes isn't evidence of anything. All it means is that you think he fits a pattern. Beyond that it means nothing.

I'm not arguing against the movie since the movie has made it clear Howard couldn't have killed Megan/Brittney and the movie gives you enough to suspect Emmett.

And no I'm not pointlessly doubting and rejecting since the whole point of the movie is for you to doubt and reject what the movie gives you. So pleb tier that you didn't even understand that.
>>
>>69237234
Except no it's not clear established it's prone to shorting out and left over materials and trash does not suggest storage

NO IT FUCKING DOESN'T. IT MAKES IT CLEAR THAT HOWARD HAS OBVIOUSLY KILLED BEFORE. YOU'RE TRYING TO PRETEND THAT BECAUSE HE DIDN'T KILL HER IN THE FILTRATION ROOM, HE COULDN'T HAVE KILLED HER. SHE HAD NOWHERE ELSE TO GO AND WOULD HAVE EVENTUALLY BEEN GOADED OUT OF THAT ROOM. SHE WAS CLEARLY NOT MURDERED IN THE ROOM. SHE WAS CLEARLY DISSOLVED IN FUCKING ACID.

A narrative function does not set a character or event or movie in stone as much in a movie as in real life. It's merely a commonly seen pattern. Nothing more.

If Howard goaded her out of that room he would have done a complete check of evidence and replaced the hatch cover. Howard has keen attention to detail and wouldn't have overlooked such a simple detail.

A system breaking down one time does not make it prone to breaking down. In fact Howard wasn't very sure on the restart procedure should tell you it's not prone to breaking down at all.

No need to be so mad about being wrong. We all make mistakes

Yeah. In that room locked from the inside that he couldn't get access to from the vent. Keep digging m8.
>A system breaking down one time does not make it prone to breaking down
IT'S FUCKING OBVIOUS THAT IT'S "PRONE" TO BREAKING DOWN. BECAUSE WE FUCKING SEE THAT IT DOES YOU GODDAMN ASSHOLE. AND IT'S FUCKING OBVIOUS FROM THE FUCKING DIALOGUE THAT THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME GARY HAS THOUGHT ABOUT IT. THE IDEA OF SENDING THE DAUGHTER-SURROGATE WAS IMMEDIATE.

AND NOW WE'RE ASSUMING THAT HAD TO BE ANY GOADING AT ALL. THERE'S NO REASON HE HAD TO HAVE KNOWN THAT SHE SCRATCHED THE HELP THING AT ALL. YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT INFERRING UNSEEN THINGS FROM THE MOVIE, BUT YOU'RE APPARENTLY INCAPABLE OF BEING ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THAT SHE DIDN'T HAVE TO DIE UP THERE AND HE DIDN'T HAVE TO KNOW SHE WAS UP THERE LEAVING "EVIDENCE." HER DEATH COULD HAVE BEEN COMPLETELY UNRELATED TO SCRATCHING HELP IN THAT FUCKING ROOM.

What do you think he's just going to leave that shit sitting out there plain as day? It's like you can't think past what the movie spoonfeeds you.

One break down is not prone. It's obvious he'd choose the smallest person first to go through the vents since they had the best chance. Who the fuck else wouldn't have immediately picked her. He still has trouble remember the simple restart procedure so no, the thing isn't prone to breaking down.

If he didn't know she was up there, she could have survived up there for an extremely long time eating shelter food and leaving trash and shit and he wouldn't be the wiser and think she escaped somewhere. Thus your scenario falls apart again

John/Howard was after a replacement for his daughter, he abducted the girl, she tried to escape he killed her and disposed of the body in the corrosive fluid, hence the dialogue about it corroded everything to the bone, Emmet was just a lucky retard/bum, Howards intentions were honourable in his own twisted mind, he just misssed his daughter.
>>
>>69238114
I bow out. You win. You're totally right. Big fat badman did nothing wrong. The disappeared girl that he referred to as his daughter was obviously killed in his rape bunker by the naive nice guy that he murdered at the first chance he could get. The daughter-obsessed delusional, violent psychopath with the bunker designed to keep a prisoner, and kidnapped the protagonist and keeps a person-sized vat of body-decomposing acid, and shoots someone in the face because they moved his scissors, did nothing wrong.

Are you younger than 9/11?

>Being this upset at an alternate theory that fits
Are you autistic? Or is it because you have a nagging feeling that I'm right and is now challenging your narrow and basic interpretation of the movie?

>>69238586
To be fair, I'd probably have shot him too if he was trying to steal my gun, overthrow the bunker, and enslave the girl. The acid is probably good for getting rid of organic waste, including dead bunkermates. I'll keep that in mind if I ever become a prepper

He killed Emmett. He went into a violent rage at the sight of his daughterfu flirting with Emmett. He was always going to kill Emmett. If that wasn't abundantly clear to you in the first act, I'm sorry about your disorder.

You are so bad at characters. Not just character motivations but people in general. Sounds like literal autism to me.
And if Howard wanted be could have just shot Emmett to keep him out. The movie never even makes it clear how he broke his arm trying to get in, he could have broke it pounding on the door or sticking his arm in as the door was closing. Who's making up headcanon now. Not to mention all the headcanon about shit like the filter system being prone to breaking.

In fact the original script Howard was completely in the right and Emmett was the antagonist manipulator so your whole author intent goes out the window because you don't know how much they want to draw from the old script on who's really the good guy and who's really the bad guy.

You'd have an argument there if you hadn't brought up a bunch of your own headcanon of your own, some of which is directly contradictory to what is shown.

>Watching and following the narrative logic of the movie, as obviously presented, is for plebs.
This is true though, especially in movies that have a background of wanting you to think outside of what's presented.

And once again due to the original script which spells out the writers intentions more clearly
>>
>>69219402
Nah, he was unstable and fundamentally self-centered. Not much is known about how he treated his wife and daughter, but one can make an educated guess based on the fact that he abducted a girl as his replacement "daughter" and ended up killing her. Plus he builds this apocalypse bunker with the express intention of it housing only himself and one such weird daughter/doll figure, who he basically chooses at random because she looks like MEW. Sure he allows Emmett in, but clearly has nothing but disdain for him and was basically looking for an excuse to kill him without making himself look bad in front of his fake daughter. He's sort of a Travis Bickle type guy, as the result of these festering neuroses that make him a dysfunctional monster in society, but finally gets the opportunity to be the hero, or at least be right, when the world ends. He fucks it up though, because his plan for MEW is delusional and unsustainable, he would have ended up killing her eventually if she didn't make a move to escape.
