You're right - not the same guy. Confused

Confused

sorry. Still, it aint gramps. As long as we're talking about gramps, though, can anyone get a close and clear look at gramps' tie (in the PacSun pic)? Looks like Japanese/Chinese/?? character(s).

I got to thinking about the function of 1-18 site...from an IG standpoint. We've all really dealt with it as an out of game photo album...but if that was truly its purpose, there would be no way this early to have discovered slusho at all - that came from a sharp eye on the trailer video.

I'm not so sure that Slusho was found through the trailer itself. I did a search for "Slusho" in the 1-18-08/Cloverfield forums herein. The first mention I found was on page 13 of the now-infamous "megathread" (that since has grown to 332 pages and nearly 5,000 posts). That reference, posted on the evening of July 6th, was based on sightings in the LA area of location shooting signs that contained a donut and the reference to "Slusho." I think, but currently can not prove, that the slusho.jp site was discovered before the shirt was spotted in the trailer.

Thank you, Furi161! I thought I was alone on this.

I've pointed that out many times and no one seems to listen. The hint for the Slusho site came from iMDB's a.k.a. of the movie, which was based on someone seeing the name on a location shoot. It had nothing to do with seeing the guy with the Slusho t-shirt in the trailer.

All of mine have borders depending on how I twist and turn the pics. Oh well, I say we all relax, take a breather, and come back in a week when something new is posted.

Liek a baby, I refuse to wait {insert sarcasm monkey here}

No really, you have a point. we should wait before it all dribbles out our computer screens and on to the floor, like my sanity did in the last five posts.

oh wait, that was my bladder... thanks SLUSHO!

Hopefully we'll get something new on Friday. That would possibly signal a regular update interval and we could relax during the doldrums.

I've pointed that out many times and no one seems to listen. The hint for the Slusho site came from iMDB's a.k.a. of the movie, which was based on someone seeing the name on a location shoot. It had nothing to do with seeing the guy with the Slusho t-shirt in the trailer.

Not on here...and this forum is what I'm referencing. Not some other venue. On this one someone came in and posted about the LA shoot and slusho on the signs and basically got ignored.

Later, the high def trailer vid was released and we on here were dissecting it up one side and down the other.

Someone came on here in the middle of it and posted that in the trailer, the guy who suggests going to the roof is wearing a slusho shirt and that had motivated them to try a search for slusho.com the site....and wonder how long it had been up. So yes, it was first raised with the mention of the slusho LA shoot but it was not given a shred of consideration ON HERE until Geist pointed out that slusho logo on the shirt from the trailer. That's probably why nobody's listening. We were here...we saw how it played out.

I remembered the post abot the LA shoot and reposted it again since it suddenly had far more weight than it was originally given under the new circumstances there was a site up for slusho at all.

ON HERE, THIS FORUM, that's the way it played out in discovery. There could've been a million other people in cyberspace that got it right off the trailer, recalled it from Alias, or from the LA shoot, and long since found slusho....but the "scoop" on it gained its solidity after it had been confirmed ON HERE...and almost immediately the slusho site info was being spread far and wide like Jamie's hotness.

So I am not talking about the reference to slusho site having come up first, the "hint" came in here. Where that person got it, who the hell knows. This wasn't about who found it first. It was about how it played out on this forum where WE all are.

See now?

I hope someone can clear this up, i was looking at the writing on the back of the photo where rob is being fed a drink and the handwriting isn't consistent. for example the letter t. one time does it show up normal and twice it shows up like a and symbol. also the letter g in "forget" is written like a p, to me i see a hidden message i just can't figure out what its saying?

Wow.

People really read things into absolutely nothing.

The writing on that card is just a cursive/print hybrid.

The little g looks like a cursive g.

Well...I took the liberty of annotating three images that I think might hold more information, I think I put my best foot forward with this, and I hope others can garner information from them.

Everyone keeps asking about that construction crane that's in the picture of Hud and some girl on a downtown sidewalk (in Chicago, maybe?). That thing in the background is a construction crane - nothing more; they're ubiquitous in most cities.
