Although I believe you, I'm going to play devil's advocate here: prove to me, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that it's NOT related. "I got an email from J.J. Abrams saying it isn't" doesn't quite cut it for me. Give me your email address and I can send you an email that looks like it came from J. J. Abrams, the President of the United States or God Almighty himself.

I know EHWR is an ARG (see my blog regarding Triton Enterprises), but I'm still not 100% convinced that they are completely separate ARGs.

XD I'd totally see the fancy, proper Cloverfield. "I say, I'm going to crush your city!" Nice.

I also like that J.J. Abrams is "known for working on mysterious projects...like something called 'Felicity.'" Laughing

A great still from the show, though. Everyone looks so serious. I guess it WAS the seed that started Alias, after all...

If the mail isn't from Abrams, then he's letting someone lie about him unchallenged.

"On June 21st, before the first screening of TRANSFORMERS with the

trailer attached, before anyone outside of Paramount had mentioned

word one about the film anywhere, we broke the entire story here on the

site." This was quoted from the AICN site as has clearly been shown by

myself and others quite a few sites had and were talking about

Cloverfield before June 21st thats what i was trying to prove .Anyway

Rhialto its all part of a game and i wonder how many more people had

checked up on the cloverfield project before June 21st unfortunately

nothing seems to have been unearthed to progress this thread.

Onto a more serious point fxdude has been sacked from working on it

for privately showing those pics and someone posting them. Exclamation

I think you needed to continue reading:

"Well, 90% of everything that's out there now came from one source, guys. Me. I broke the following facts about CLOVERFIELD exclusively: The title being a cover. It being a giant monster movie shot as if from a hand-held video camera. The low budget on the movie. The fact that Drew Goddard is writing it, and that Matt Reeves is directing it. The fact that the creature is nicknamed "the Parasite" by those working on the film. I described the trailer beat-for-beat before anyone outside the studio had seen it."

I'm pretty sure that was his point. As far as I know at this point it's true.

MSM has confirmed the AICN article (linked in this very thread).

Also, both the ethanhass people AND the Slusho people agree the two are not related.

Looking at those posts, I think we're being post griefed, folks. Just ignore them if you are apt to become annoyed.

what to believe...

If you're gonna be thinking that the jj abrams email is a fake too and that he's not telling the truth about EH not being related then how in the world do we know what or who to believe? u know urself that it's part of the game thats coming out so y would jj abrams have anything to do with that even after it's been said that he doesnt... he would say something about it...

Well, I am not so sure we HAVE to prove anything to you. We are going off of several pretty good sources that it is not related. It has been said over and over again that it is not related. If you want to talk about it, fine... but this is treading over stuff we have already eliminated.

It is an ARG related to a Role-Playing game. Why must people insist on bring this up over again. Start a 01-18-08/Ethan Haas thread if you want to try and mesh the two. We won't stop you.

Not trying to be hostile here... just tired of people telling us we MUST prove crap to them.

You're pretty dense if you still believe EHWR has anything to do with Cloverfield. I was certain everyone knew by now that whole shebang has been uncovered.

Some email harvesting spiders are smart enough to replace the at in emailATexample.com back to an @ sign.

Quote:

If you look at the trailer you can see the number 3 being referenced to everywhere. The 63 degrees on the news channel, The 12:36, the 2004 ACE, numbers that are all dividable by 3.

Last, but not least, you hear the thundering monster sound three times, each sound accompanied by a different event.

Romans 1:18 "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness"

So what in biblical mythology has connections to the slew of references in the trailer? The three great monsters.

In Jewish belief, Behemoth is the primal unconquerable monster of the land, as Leviathan is the primal monster of the waters of the sea and Ziz the primordial monster of the sky.

1) The first monster roar is accompanied by an earthquake (Behemoth)
2) The second monster roar is accompanied by a huge fireball (Leviathan, for it can breathe fire)
3) The third monster roar is accompanied by the flying Statue of Liberty head (Ziz).

Not convinced?

The guy who says "maybe we can get a better view from the roof" has the Slusho logo on his shirt. Slusho is a classic J.J. Abrams icon, and it has appeared in both Alias and Lost, which are his shows.

Slusho.jp has, by now, been confirmed as a part of the viral marketing campaign revolving around 1-18-08. Japan. Strangely enough, the character Rob, who is present in the trailer, was gonna fly to Japan a day after that party and the monster events.

Let's have a look around on that site. Not all pages are accessible. But there is an odd feature about the pages that are available. The main page background is on land, the Downloads page background is on air, and the History page background is on sea.

Furthermore, the six buttons on the main page cause popups of various animals, namely a Horse, a Whale and a Bird. Behemoth, Leviathan, Ziz.

GG, J.J. Abrams.
