 		odd.
what's up with the picture's placement being random each time?

(1-18-08.com)

also, it seems to me that the number for santa monica airport is a constant loop of the same information, so that number is definitely relevant in some way... also, i'm getting a busy tone every time i call now... any speculations?

 		Didn't seem to post the first time
Awww ;-p wow I almost feel famous. Thanks for the plug of sorts and making your video my first ever mention in a YT video ;-p

So the sign in the image is what,

WE'LL MISS YOU
WE'LL MISS YOU ROB

I think somewhere on the Diggs site (it's blurring out now) someone did mention that the guy who is playing Rob is actually Jason Ritter??

For the record, I think the Paramount incident of scrubbing videos on YT is bogus....that's a free marketing goldmine (as opposed to the X thounsands somebody coughed up to get the no name movie trailer shown right before Transformers)....and just the idea in and of itself that Paramount would appear out the woodwork in 24 hours of the release of the "bootlegged" video and demand it be scrubbed sounds like crap to me...as in, the fact they would do that would guarantee the video/s in question would be hurled into viral mode to an even wider audience just because of the controversy attached. CNN reported this morning about the piracy arrest but failed to even remotely mention the now widely circulating "bootleg" copy of the mystery movie trailer...

I noticed the bootleg video is still being shown on a dozen other websites, so Paramount just focusing on YT is a little suspect.

How would Paramount get wind of the bootleg trailer video in 24 hours?

It's only July 6 for crying out loud ;-p





Now I have this to ask.


There has been shown a direct cross reference to Albert Pike that seems to be glossed over in favor of the Ethan puzzle business.


Early on, someone posted the WHOIS that showed the same Albert Pike of the same location/phone number as having registered the S7 domain back in July 2006.

Now Pike's making another appearance with the 1-18-08 domain.


S7 is linked to Transformers, obviously, and this mystery movie trailer comes out immediately before the Transformers flick begins....

There is an obvious connection or link between them, not a coincidence. Yeah we know it's the same people....plus Abrams...but that makes me wonder if the trailer itself, whatever this movie is, is also related in some way TO sectorseven and that story/game.

But we also know Albert Pike is decomposed, they chose this name for a reason as a shill....but why use Pike to register 2 domains that wouldn't be otherwise related, yet easily discoverable?


Is Albert Pike and his Order and the glaring link to the masonic monument in Virginia a red herring....or could the Ethan Hass puzzle thing be the herring?


Or are BOTH tied into the same ultimate story?

In all these articles it's popped up here and there that the Transformers sequel is already underway....and despite the movie's version that S7 is dismantled, the S7 story isn't dismantled.....

What's the role of Albert Pike in S7 if any, and what would be the tie in link to 1-18-08?

They used Pike again for a reason and there's no real good reason for it to be a shill if the two 'games' and movies have nothing to do with each other....unless it was simply a clue toward guilt by association?

They could've just come up with some other dead guy to use as a shill.

They chose to use Pike again.

Why?

Did people miss the trail there the first time? Something that was relevant but never got rooted out? Second chance?

 		I emailed the Facilities Manager at the Washington Masonic Monument earlier today, asking if they had found any USB thumb drives or strange fliers, and I asked if they had a statue or something of Albert Pike. No response yet.

I did explain that it was part of an internet scavenger hunt of sorts, nothing weird (I didn't want to scare the guy). Hopefully he gets back to me.

 		Anyone think of looking into the "Lost" side of this yet, cuz they're was a ton of number references and puzzles in that, and the same dudes workin on this movie, so... anyone up for some cross referencing?

You don't have to type so big. Also, I doubt there's any connection to Lost.

 		Not lost
I'm a huge Lostie and I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with Lost. Although there are a lot of similarities in the set-up:

- Casting no-name (or small time) actors
- Lots of anagrams
- Using numbers

Anyone figure out the new pic yet? I noticed they are appearing randomly to either tell us to keep rearranging them or to just mess with us. Although you do get some interesting things when you overlap the pics while they're turned at weird angles. The guy shoving the drink down the suited dude's face... his extended arm looks fake... like it was placed there?

Anyone notice how creepy the guy's face is wearing the numbered shirt?

when you click and after you press play to load more pics, when you click only that certain picture moves its self to the top, ie, click play over the pic of the 2 chicks so that theres 2 of those, and then make 4 ones with the dude drinking, if you click over the ones of the chicks, only the copys of that picture are layered back to the top. this might help find out the puzzle

 		Anyone good with photo editing. Is there any way to take the "We'll Miss You" sign and zoom in and see what the little images in the letters are? Perhaps they end up being sanskrit?

 		If you left click and zoom in you can make out that they're photos pasted together to spell "We'll Miss..."

 		I screen capped that new photo and did some rough level adjusting in photoshop and it didn't reveal much. Maybe someone else can find something...
