I went to the supermarket yesterday and guess how much a crate of stella was?

Yup, you guessed it.... £13.66


very expensive...
in belgium it's about 15€ with the recycle money included...
so it's less than .50€ a beer...

 		Brigid/Video
Maybe the cinematic is indeed a reference to the video. I apologize if anyone has done this ahead of me, I did try to search through the site to find. But has anyone else noticed that even though the relative content of what Brigid is saying in the video and the text beside it is the same, there are some slight differences of wording? Perhaps a comparison might reveal something...though I don't know about clues since she is working against Jon.

 		Marlowe Digital Email
In response to asking what exactly Marlowe Onbrand was and inquiring if there was a website i could check, i got this response:

"Marlowe OnBrand is a cutting edge thinktank and brand consultancy. It does not have a website as its work is not directly consumed by the public, although the effects of it certainly are.

If you believe that you have something to offer Marlowe OnBrand, email your CV back to this address (no attachments please). "

so i sent them a cv and an application,
gues we'll have to wait now, to see what comes out of it....

Just wanted to share it, any clues welcome...

 		Sorry to necro a topic, but I was just perusing the forum to see if I could find anything worth finding.

Anyway, "Marlowe Onbrand" is an anagram of "We Marlon Brando". Is there a film somehow related to the devil, or selling one's soul, that Marlon Brando has a part in?

The best I could come up with on a search was "Die Faust im Nacken", which seems to have been the German name for On The Waterfront, but does at least contain the word "faust" (it translates as "The Fist in the Neck").

Their reference to The Godfather with the "offer we couldn't refuse" quote could mean something. Brando was The Godfather in that, so maybe they are saying that Marlowe Digital is the big boss in this game?

"Hey, STELLA!" — Brando as Stanley Kowalski, A Streetcar Named Desire

"I have seen the devil in my microscope, and I have chained him." — Brando as Dr. Moreau, The Island of Dr. Moreau

There have been references to films in other parts of the game, so I thought this was worth a mention. As usual, I don't have any answers, just throwing conjecture around to see if anything sticks in anyone else's mind.

 		I emailed Lounge Lover in Shoreditch to ask them about Marlowe Digital's launch party. The response was:

Quote:
Dear Chris,



You are the second person who is asking about that company but I am afraid that I cannot answer if they had or will hold a party at Loungelover.



Best regards,



Emmanuel Tremolani

Loungelover

1 Whitby St

London

E2 7DP

United Kingdom



Tel: +44 (0)20 7012 1234

Fax: +44 (0)20 7012 1236


Only the second person to ask?? Anyway, it looks like he's never heard of Marlowe Digital.

 		Wow - I'm wondering if the address is just a coincidence but a lot of the action in Dracula is based in Whitby.
