 		[QUESTION] about the pictures on teh website..when taken?
how the hell do u have enough time in the middle of a party to take a picture print out a copy and write something in the back of it all whike there is a monter attack?

i dont think this was meant to be an arg its just viral marketing and making myspace pages to keep us busy.

 		thank you someone who gets it but elvis has a point it could be done before it attacks. what i mean is jj gives you a lot of leads(crap) but very few actually have connections with the movie like MARKETING

 		ITS OBVIOUS
they know people are going to be dissecting every page so they throw in some brand names and they probably already paid for the movie expenses.

its only about a 30 minute interval between the picture and the monster attack i didnt see them using polaroids so when was the picture developed

I argued that very point, that the 'photos' aren't neccesarily meant to exist (as print outs) in the film, but simply as part of the viral campaign.


I've never really bought the idea that they were printed out during the party... But maybe I'm injecting too much realism into it.

 		Ditto....

Only my angle was being unable to justify why digitial photos could have anything written on them at all. Razz

I guess logically- the only pics with writing on them are pics from the party. These could've been a "hey, I'm going to print these before I get hammered drunk and forget later." The others, I'd imagine the camera was found and pics printed for posterity. Smile

 		PEOPLE think about the movie, having a monster in new york is the the most unreal/unlogical thing that can happen to us. so for this movie ANYTHING GOES Rolling Eyes

Does not seeing polaroids in the trailer mean that no one had a polaroid camera? I had assumed that the pictures were polaroids simply because of the way they looked.

also theres a chance the disaster photos were printed later unlike the party pics.
