So where is the helicopter going from here? Newfoundland is well out of range for most helicopters, Portugal and African countries (and costal islands) as well. The Azores are plausable... A Tag ship nearby perhaps?

That'd be my best guess. Maybe the ship that comes to NYC - with any survivors? The tanker could be miles away, and the chopper used to shorten the waiting time for arrival for the VIPs onboard.


Interesting you bring that up. IF, and its a big if, the survivors head to NYC, there is a nonzero possibility that our gang runs into briefcase man. That would be a way to put more detail about the backstory/MGP into the movie.

The families of the missing Japanese people have been notified, etc. The spokesman is saying that this is a difficult situation and that the environmentalist group TIDOWave is known to have been close to the scene (doesn't say on the scene)

The bit about the tanker is hard for me as it has the English from the tanker in the background which makes it hard to pick out the two languages.

It seems to be saying that at the present time it seems that this could be relation to a losing contact with a tanker on it's return to Norway from New York (or may be the other way round)

As for the TAG Ninjas, they are definitely TAG security. Why the masks? Maybe they alwyas wear them to intimidate employees. Certainly I don't think they expected media on station.

Why would you need your target laser going if you were shooting at MGP? Might be you were shooting at smaller beasts? Or just at terrorists?

A private army is good in case of EcoTerrorists, but might also be relevant if you though there were wee beasties that needed shooting.

Mayday, Mayday

There are two voices in the background during the tanker segment. One is someone from the ship radioing "Mayday! Mayday! (unintelligible)" Then the US Coast Guard responds, followed by another "Mayday" and what sounds like "...first assitance..." from the ship.

Trying to isolate the sound here.

Maybe the masks are because they patrol around the outside of a rig in the middle of the sea and it's a bit cold Smile

ok - here are my posts of the Japanese translation condensed into one post - I've not translated the bit with Ganu at the end, but seems to mention the old name of the company and not a lot more than that Ganu is the businessman in charge of Tagruato.

My Japanese is not good, so don't take this as a full translation - some words are a bit too fast for me, so there may be a couple of blanks and mistakes.
I am sure I am mis-hearing "news liaison" but can't think what else it can be.

December the 27th, this was the situation on the Chuai maritime platform(?)
This shocking scene of a group of 3-4 people at the moment of an attack was caught on a mobile phone camera.

This full details about this event have not come in, the (condition is at a standstill?) but, from a helicopter (news liaison?) person filmed it breaking and falling into the sea. 2 Japanese people from Tagruato and 5 people of unidentified nationality are missing (location unknown).

Today is the first time the (news liaison?) event has come to light.

I think it's saying that the people on the boat are unknown, but in these images the Tagruato logo is visible on group of armed men's clothing.
Something about (they) are unknown, or something about them is unknown.
At the end of the video, the lifeboat is fired upon by missiles but no word has been heard from them

The spokesman is just saying that there is no loss of life and the channel is reporting to have received this late.
The families of the missing Japanese people have been notified, etc. The spokesman is saying that this is a difficult situation and that the environmentalist group TIDOWave is known to have been close to the scene (doesn't say on the scene)

holy crap I made it to the end...

Didn't see this posted yet, forgive me if I missed it among the 1.2 million posts on this subject Wink

French video of Mme. LeClerc - she walks past a pic on the wall...



Anyone else think that looks like a "classification poster" - where they outline a species and show multiple drawings of it? Anyone else think it looks like an plesiosaur?

To me it just looks like a picture of two birds, probably a male and female version, perched on a branch.

It's a soaring eagle holding a trout in it's mouth, and it is gliding above a falling whale, ala HGTG.

 New Russian newscast???

Edit #2: ----> Russian Newscast Video?: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTXQVOs3Kxs


I was searching on Google Videos / YouTube for 'Chuai' recently added and stumbled upon a Russian version? But it seems to have been removed...

Search for "Нападение на платформу Чуай" without quotes in YouTube...

Is this a dupe? I thought I have read everything on the post...

Edit: Here is the user who posted it, I believe you can now view the video:

I'll say what I said last night. We won't get an english version until later on tonight or maybe tomorrow. God help us if it's from Canada.
