I think this is as close to a video of MGP himself we are going to get.

I mean, the only other way that we would get a video is if someone snaps it on its way to NYC.... and if they knew it was on its way to NYC then it would have been evacuated or something.

We have some tenticle evidence and other little tidbits that I am sure will pop up with each news clipping that is found.

I hinted at this before but this is my theory. I believe that there are more than one MGP, I also think that the stations are actually holding pens for MGP's,and that our MGP is trying to cut across the country to get to his other buddies/mates at the other stations. New York just happens to be in his way. And the lil creatures I think were weird experiments that hopped aboard MGP while Chuai was going down and hitched a ride to dry land. And as for the debris flying again, maybe he does have multiple blowholes that he can swallow stuff and launch it out at great speeds. but who knows?

I remember saying ages ago that knowing TIDO's members and locations wouldn't be much use to Tag unless they had some sort of private militia, and it turns out they do!

Like I said before. I don't expect to see an English version anytime soon. Give it a couple days. JJ would love to have us on the edge of our seats trying to figure out new clues in the multi-ligual versions before giving us an english one.


If that's what they do (JJ probably isn't that involved at this point) it would be super lame. News breaks on international stories worldwide on the same day, a story like this wouldn't ever have a 17 hour lag between being reported in Germany, Italy, France, and Spain and being reported in the United States and Great Britain. I call shenangins on the PMs. Wink

Hi! during the interview with the french lady you can clearly see a painting of a typical french farm...


Are we not suppose to see any picture from a woman call janice soon?
like it was written on T.I.D.O website.

You can also see a man sitting behind the lady in thereflexion of the mirror at 1:21. (perhaps it was the interviewer)

Heh, Shenanagins. I find that hilarious since I just saw Juno.

Anyways. The french version was supposed to be announced tomorrow at about 3PM eastern time.

Anyways, it took the rest of the world about a week to figure it out, why not wait a couple more days for the english one.

what if the first time they even get mention of this is during the party? but that would be a massive delay in information on part of the news.

My thought is that was Tagruato's controlled release (or attempt at) of information. Now that the story has broken, a delay just doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

I think that man may be her second son. But good call on the farm there. Could be a clue.

As I mentioned about 6 pages back, don't be surprised if there's no American story, or only a 30 second blurb. Our media is too concerned with Brittany Spears, toy recalls and hating on Bush to worry about real news.

I'd expect our English Update to come from the BBC, or Canada.

Maybe there'll be a BBC story shortly

It occurred to me that, perhaps, these videos are the actual beginning of the movie. Rather than just show the footage from HUD's camera, maybe they actually show footage from several cameras relevant to the case. The movie would, in effect, be a reel put together by the government documenting the attack and any events pertinent to it.

These videos would be a quick and intriguing way to provide some backstory to the great unwashed masses who will arrive in the theaters not knowing the difference between an ARG and an aardvark. If I'm someone who just showed up without having ever even heard of any of the online content, then I'm gonna be seriously puzzled as to why a monster shows up out of nowhere to rip NYC a new one. If the movie starts with these videos (or at least, the eventual English language one), then I at least have a clue that something started out in the Atlantic leading up to what we see from HUD's footage.

Besides, that looks like a somewhat expensive piece of CGI work to only use as part of an online viral campaign.

Rob's myspace update on Tagruato, jamie's vids on Tagruato, and now those those news about Chuai, shouldn't we warn Rob that Jamie possibly knows something about this event, since all those infos are now IG and public?

I haven't read through this thread yet, but I just gotta say- watching the Chuai Station fall apart made me spasm... in my pants.

To all those that thought the Chuai Station was underwater....


hahahahahaha... ha.


Now. I'm sure someone's translated something by now.

Can anyone PM me w/ any new information please?

It would be so very greatly appreciated.

Please. There's one word that should technically have your American journalists all over it like an STD over Paris Hilton -

TERRORISM.

It's that simple. American journalism is horribly ethnocentric unless terrorism is involved. And terrorism is being bandied around here. So, it should be pounced on.

Well she does show us a picture.

That's a big key.

Also, look at the box. In the Empire interview Matt Reeves mentioned that years ago he walked in on JJ making an "incredibly beautiful box" and that JJ found the idea of a container that holds something fascinating. That people would want to know what's in the box but the box itself is more mysterious and exciting than what's inside.
