Yeah there's absolutely no way Clover could have been covered up by the US Government, not with the events depicted in the film. Thousands if not millions of New-Yorkers saw Clover rampaging throughout the city in addition to the Military and reporters

Even if the US went full USSR secret police censure style. There's just no way something of that magnitude could be dismissed as anything but a gigantic monster. Cloverfield hadi the evacuation and destruction of one of the biggest cities in the world, as well as the deployment of the army that is far too many witnesses to ever silence or fool

I think what the mention of a coverup was referencing was Cloverfield's ARG and background lore involving the company that woke Clover up

[Jetty_Jags]

I don't know, I think its somewhat believable. I mean if the government can brainwash the population into thinking the Earth is round, surely they can handle something like Clover.

Life is Strange (the video game) and Rick and Morty exist in the same universe.

[GodzillaFan1990's]

Deep Blue Sea and the Apes Reboot Trilogy are set in the same universe. Deep Blue Sea was a prequel to the trilogy where the sharks were the first attempt for the cure of Alzheimer's which failed and was eventually moved onto apes due to them being our closest relatives.

[Noble Saber]

Noble Six acted as Colonel Ackerson's "personal grim reaper," as stated in the dossier for Six. Someone on the Halo reddit made a post about it and it totally fits Ackerson's character to have a private operative for blacker-than-black wetworks ops.

G4 MLP takes place millions of years in the future of Skyrim. The ponies are descended from horses that became magically enchanted through some sort of means, this same enchantment sometimes creating extra features such as wings and/or horns, resulting in the creation of pegasi, unicorns, and alicorns. Some enchanted horses were experimented on with transmutative spells that gave them buglike features and shapeshifting abilities, these equines being the ancestors of changelings. Other horses still were infused with the blood of dragons in an effort to create a creature with the power of a dragon, but also with the ability to be tamed; these draconic horses would go on to evolve into kirins. Abyssinians are descended from khajiit, while the dragons are descended from the interbreeding of argonians and dragons. Discord is the newest incarnation of Sheogorath, while the humanoid races such as the nords and the like eventually went extinct, though their descendants would go on to become some of the sentient races with humanoid features such as the minotaurs and centaurs.

Love this timeline! Only three minor flaws in your diamond:

*The main story of Frankenstein vs. Baragon is said to occur 15 years after Hiroshima. That's 1960, not 1961.
*Ghidorah the Three-Headed Monster should be set in 1964, not 1965. I'd say it occurred many months after Mothra vs. Godzilla. In fact, it was released in Japan after Dogora.
*Should The Mummy's Curse even be in there? Better to include just The Mummy's Hand, The Mummy's Tomb and The Mummy's Ghost, since continuity-wise, Curse doesn't belong in the storyline. I always thought Ghost was a good ending, since Kharis and Ananka were finally reunited in the end, relatively speaking.

The Scream series takes place in the same universe as Behind The Mask: Rise of Leslie Vernon, along with the other referenced horror movies. In this universe, the big slasher films are "ripped from the headlines" movies about the real slashers like what ends up happening with Stab.

Frankenstein vs Baragon and War of the Gargantuas are prequels to Attack on Titan.

Sorry to revive a dead topic but if Cloverfield really did happen in the Monsterverse, why didn't Godzilla come out of hibernation and beat the thing up?

[Voyager]

Time to revive this with an obscure Pokemon theory.

Victini is the atomic bomb. Victini's name comes from Victory and Tiny. It's Pokedex entry states that it creates limitless energy from within its body, which is a reference to nuclear power. It's also found at the bottom of the Liberty Garden Square, which is based off of Liberty Island in NY Harbour. Two nuclear bombs were dropped in Japan, being Little Boy and Fat Man. Little boy was smaller than Fat Man (tiny, if you will). Victini's fire typing is maybe a reference to the atomic fireballs and the firestorm caused by the detonation.

And of course, Victini's whole deal is being the victory Pokemon. Victini is America's victory bomb, or in this case Unova's, seeing as Unova is based off of the USA, NY in particular. Also Victini makes the victory sign with his hands, popularised after the victory in Europe and the Pacific.

In The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Eye of Sauron was just a conjuration.

The real Sauron spent most of his time in his own private quarters in the tower dancing to "Safety Dance."

If you can't tell this is a joke, shame on you.

[Bigdog]

Sorry to revive a dead topic but if Cloverfield really did happen in the Monsterverse, why didn't Godzilla come out of hibernation and beat the thing up?

Maybe the Cloverfield monster doesn't upset the balance as much as the MUTOs do, and being it's like any other average giant monster save for it coming from outer space, there's no need for Godzilla to attack it. It's not as if this Godzilla cares about humanity in particular.

Here's a few theories of my own.


1. The Power Rangers in the 2017 movie are a military force not unlike the Green Berets or the fictional Starship Troopers. There's a reason why Rita in this timeline left her team and why Zordon is extremely antipathetic towards his team of Rangers. Outside of trauma on Zordon's part, Power Rangers aren't just do-gooders any more than the Romans were noble in preventing piracy in the Mediterranean by imposing its authority over the entire region. At worst, they are the Stormtroopers and whoever rules over them are the Empire. They beat down their recruits until they either crack or they as a team become killing machines. Still don't understand why an advanced alien civilization would lock their military gear behind "being worthy" or a team or never accidentally creating a Megazord from exposure to Zeo Crystals.


2. Battle Royale, the movies, happens as a natural and realistic sequel to Godzilla vs. Biollante. The events of Biollante cause the Japanese economy to crash five years after Godzilla's attack on Tokyo wrecked the city. Fed up with the cover-ups and lies that have gravely damaged the Japanese economy and wrecked cities since 1984, all the conditions are under way to initiating a communist revolution. While the USSR falls, The Japanese People's Republic rose from Japan's post 1989 ashes. Over the next decade or so, the new government gets it in their idea to remind the people to be thankful for their government by killing bourgeois students
at a random school every year. Since the ANEB worked so effectively, Godzilla was killed off rather than stalled for a time. Everything else is retconned out of existence, other than its technology being used for surveillance and other purposes.

[Gigantis]

Maybe the Cloverfield monster doesn't upset the balance as much as the MUTOs do,

He literally got all of New York City blown off the map. And considering how the M.U.T.O's did less property damage and he still showed, i'm inclined to think Godzilla already would have made an appearance.

[SoggyNoodles2016]

The "Velociraptors" in the Jurassic Park/World films aren't Deinonychus or Achillobator (they are the latter in the novels). They're Dakotaraptors, which in this universe, were discovered earlier. This explains their size and body shape, them being found in Montana, the seemingly inherent rivalry they have with Tyrannosaurus, and their speed. As for why they're called Velociraptor, in this universe, Acheroraptor was labeled as a species of Velociraptor and as is being currently debated, it is possibly synonymous with Dakotaraptor, hence the listing.

The Walking With and Prehistoric Park series take place in the same universe. Their paleontology inaccuracies are a direct result of humans interacting with the envoirment by time traveling.

The reason Jason Voorhes and Michael Myers get more inhuman and supernatural thought the series is the belief in their legends as killers slowly makes them become beings of supernatural power (like what happened with Freddy Kruger and is implied in Leslie Vernon)

[Kiryu2012]

The Lion King series takes place in a universe where humans don't have the same technological advancements as they do IRL.

The Jungle Book and The Lion King take place in the same universe.

Rampage takes place in the Monsterverse.

The Land Before Time, Disney's Dinosaur, and You Are Umasou all take place in the same world.
