I don't understand this motion sickness associated with Cloverfield

[Bootprint]

It could be any one, try looking up the number of people that go ill playing HalfLife 2.

That doesn't matter - the problem is caused by a difference in perceived motion versus actual motion. In the car/ship case, there is actual motion but little or no perceived motion, depending on what your eyes are focused on. In the Cloverfield case, there is perceived motion but no actual motion. In either case, this disagreement between the visual and balance systems causes problems for some people. There's more info on Wikipedia.

Believe it or not, some people get sick playing 3D first person shooters. I know my sister does.

I never have had any problem with motion sickness in life, or during any movie, but I got a little woozy once or twice, and got a headache from seeing the movie. My wife felt the same way.

I had no problem with the movie. however, the bourne identity movies are unwatchable to me
