A new trail for us junies...

Ok this took a few hours of snooping around, but I have reasons to believe (though this would not work well with slusho unless he did that for all his Bad Robot advertising) that this may be a Revelations type movie as well, and here's why:

I searched and searched thru the Mystery Street thing but to no avail. Then someone here posted something about revelations 18:8 so I went for a read. I found this there:

'And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!'

Link

Which led me to 1:18
'I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.'

While browsing I found this one too:
And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY (as in Mystery St???), BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

(Now if you have read Revelations you know that Babylon is 'the great city that falls' which is supposed to be the world's business/sin hub...not NYC u say? lol)

NOW - I went back and searched ABZ 3293, tried everything. I tried history of the date 3/2/1993 and even 3/2/1893, and even 3293 BC and found this:

Scroll down to ABZ it is an abbreviation that has to to with a man named Rykle Borger who coincidentally wrote a book and was a leading researcher in guess what? BABYLONIAN LINGUAL DECIPHERING!!!(Assyriologist)

Link

His book was called 'Assyrisch-babylonische Zeichenliste' (ABZ) Guess when it was friggin last published? '63... Anyone notice that it was 63 degrees in the news flash in the trailer? 63 degrees in NYC in Jan at midnight??? I think not.

At this point, I nearly shat myself, and began hunting deep into the world of translation of babylon scripts. I found out that AKM can also be Aleph-Kaph-Mem, lost link. Aleph-kaph-mem when googled led me to the definition 'Angel'...


Upon more searching for the 3293 part I found this:
Estimated Death Year of Adam (from Genesis and of Adam and Eve fame) to be 3293 BC...

Link


HMMMMMMMMM.........

Now, throw in the fact that we have been bombarded with the number 6 (mark of the beast)...


Extra Facts:

-The Beast is synonomous with the Abyss (ABZ = Abyss also? prolly not but hey Ive been up a few extra hours now so sorry)

-People claim that someone could have drawn in the 'devilish' looking silhouette in the girls' hair, very true - but the hair thing is overdone so moving on...

-I have to sleep. I'm sure theres more links I forgot to add but this is long enough as it is.


Good Luck


Will you marry me? Cool

Anyway that is some extensive research which i never would have found / as for the relevancy of any of it is still in question obviously. But that is some good detective work.

Well, remember 300 was made with a 60million, and that was nearly ENTIRELY done by computer graphics. 30m isnt a bad budget for something that doesnt completely require lots and lots of graphics (outside of things that need to be digitally rendered. Actors and what not in this type of movie dont need that, where as a lot of the actors in 300 were touched up with lots of cg)


Also, most of the talent is unknown and probably not paid much in comparison to most theater quality films.

(2) Its easily possible that it was thrown, it was flying easily 50-60mph into that building (judging it going a few block in under a second or two)with hardly any arc to it. That could cover 2 miles easily.


Assuming it's travelling at 60 MPH, it would take a whopping 2 minutes to just clear the water. That's unrealistic hangtime. However, I'm willing to assume that either it's travelling at either an unrealistic speed, or that it's been carried to Manhattan.

Holy. Freaking. Crapweasel.

Well, I can't argue with how you've marked the trail. Wow.

There is an untouched Japanese angle via Slusho that's not touched by this, but really...that's a hell of a chunk of research. It definitely bears keeping in mind.

 		I'm not gonna lie, I haven't read through this whole thread so I don't know if this has been covered or not.. But does anyone else wonder what the note on the fridge says in the trailer?



All I can see is "16** Life Has."

Also, is there any relevance to the sign that the SOL head hits? I tried to read what it said under the numbers (to try and see if I could come up with some sort of location) but all I can see is 401. Mean anything?


BTW, you people will have to have to put up with me.. I'm a complete noob at this so I'm sure that you're all a little better. But it's okay, my mom says I'm handsome so high five.

There's no discernible meaning or patter to the movement of the photos.

I think whatever picture that is resting on top is the one that rotates. I left the new pic up and when I went back to it it had almost rotated all the way around. I could be wrong though..

im just saying that i think whoever made the site is trying to get us to look at the photo upside down, for whatever reason. whether it has something to do with the supposed numbers in the photo, or something someone may have missed, i dont know.

It says "Your life has meaning" and is taken from a sidewalk in Austin, TX that had been spraypainted with the message, exactly as it appears in the movie if it weren't covered up.

 		Apparently it says "Your Life Has Meaning" Do a search for it if you want the details.

 		the party pic is rotating on my screen, and its at the bottom of the "stack" currently. i refresh the page and move all the photos around and its still rotating. maybe just coincedence, but im not so sure. i dont know what it all means, but im thinking theres a definite reason we are able to flip the photos around and upside-down on the site.

 		That "Life Has" thing? It says "Your Life Has Meaning," and seems to be recurring. There was evidence of this found on another forum, but that thread is 80-something pages and I'm reluctant to go spelunking through it.

Also, if the head of the Statue of Liberty is carried to Manhattan, I would think that this giant monster has some understanding of our culture. If I was a creature in search of a weapon, I'd just take the giant arm with the pointy torch on the end.
