AH HAH! so i hear alot of talk about this ethan haas person, and the ethanhaaswasright.com fiasco puzzles... soo i guess there were videos involved if you beat a puzzle, so i took a look at these videos, and they were well crypted and i'm sure use of a strobe light was involved but through image analysis i've enhanced images from the sketchy video that might help us out, i'll try to find a way to get the videos online, or at least the audio from them shortly, but this is what i have so far...

The "mysterious code" isn't so mysterious if you actually finished all 5 puzzles.

Just to cleanup a little:

Let's just say its

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

directly related to how to solve the 5th puzzle

I sincerely doubt it has meaning beyond this.

Last Thoughts

So did some more checking (really chasing this ETHW trail). After completing the puzzels you get a code word. Just wrote it down and didn't think much of it. But did today and found it's etymology:

Not particulary helpful but helps complete picture.

Edit:
Apparently had a duh momment, and removed the data, if it turns out to be something relate may re-add it.

If you go to this link and watch the trailer.
with 34 seconds left in the trailer if you listen closesly it sounds like the tape goes backwards for a second and then some one says it was a lion it was huge. I wonder if in that little blurp if played slower there is some information.
Just a thought.

This Just In

Well I was up late - or early this morning on here and finally got too sleepy...so I moved to the sofa and fell out. Had the tv on CNN and just as I was in The Zone, I was jarred awake by a quick story that there has been an arrest in a piracy case.

Apparently someone used a cellphone in the theater at the release of the Transformers. The story said the guy was arrested because he attempted to record the Transformers movie....

But after spending several hours here hashing out the mystery trailer and the bootlegged video, I had to wonder if CNN reporters got the right story ;-p

So they busted one guy for trying to film the Transformers movie, they say squat about whoever having thought to film the trailer before the Transformers movie?

Amazing they manage to keep their jobs.

I wasn't sure if this was an unrelated thing or if they were actually referring to this specific trailer video that's been abuzz. Unfortunately I was in that presleep zone and don't know if they reported the guy's name or anything more. This report came out on CNN about 5amCST this morning.

Anyone else hear about this and what do you think?

EDIT: Ah, well so here's a yahoo story link

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070705/ap_en_mo/film_piracy

Interestingly, it was in NY.....

Careful. Turner Broadcasting has more than 12,000 employees. I'm sure one of them is bound to post here ...

I can tell you for a fact that the story was actually an AP wire story, not a CNN original.

Oh wow....nice work. How do you make the videos? Since that's an OT question, if you have any desire to help me out, please pop me an im ;-p

PS it still sounds like T Rex to me....straight outta Jurrasic Park Laughing

So did anyone think to grab a copy of the trailer for dissection before Paramount wigged?

The special effects company that did the effects in the new movie also did MI:3 and all the Jurassic Parks.
