That's actually a really good question. They point out the exact parasite that was later examined, but when shown close-ups of her they give nothing to say whether she's alive or dead.
Obviously it's just to drive us up a frickin wall, but still.

The correct term is "batshit insane". Wink

Indeed. Also I agree that there has to be more than just the Special Investigations mode on the Blu-Ray disc, seeing as it can hold about 50 GB of memory.

 		Interesting tie in maybe: Marlena is a native of Norwalk, CT. The US Tagruato/Chaui news report comes also from the Norwalk, CT fictional news station.

well everyone they mentioned were either family of the missing or dead or the missing or dead. So i think Lilys alive and kickin... but as for our pals Rob and Beth, they are probally dead.

Why question Rob's parents about his involvement with Tagruato and Slusho if Rob was around to question himself? Not too logical, is it? Take that as confirmation that Rob's dead. Pretty much the same implication for Beth.

 		just a few things, does the goverment call the event :cloverfield and call MGP, Large Scale Agressor?

Also few interesting things:Further information has not surfaced, and Hanssen and JLASCANO are both currently missing and presumed dead.

Ingame way of saying Hanssen is dead?

Contrasted with the empty Spring Street station, several subway stations across Manhattan were filled with terrified citizens during CLOVERFIELD. It is estimated that thousands were still in the stations at the initiation of Hammerdown Protocol.
-You would think that "earthworm" would put speakers in the subway system much like air raid warnings to warn people or instruct them-

The Atlas Talent Agency that Marlena worked for exists.

Is this part of the Viral Marketing, or just purely coincidence?

This was already covered a long time ago, last July.

...We also have a good potential basis for Cloverfield 2, as it's apparent there is a serious investigation of Tagruato and Ganu Yoshida underway. I find it interesting that the Japanese authorities are also seeking him, considering Japan would normally be protective of it's own 'native sons'.


Japan wouldn't want another Pearl Harbor reaction. With this level of attack, they want to make sure the U.S. knows Ganu wasn't acting on their behalf. A safety measure, if you will.

Has anyone found anything on "earthworm" facilities under New York? It does answer how the military could make entry while everyone else was making exit, since they would already be there just beneath the city, hiding.

doesn't sound real, and if it was there since 2002 for response to terrorist attacks, wouldn't somebody have spilled the beans by now?


There is so much construction going on with NYC's MTA (Metropolitan Transit Authority), it would be easy to hide work done underground by any organization. The MTA covers our Buses, Railroads, Subways, Bridges and Tunnels. Their website offers a powerpoint presentation of some their future projects - like drilling a HUGE hole underground for new subways (let's hear it for the 2nd Avenue line!!) Wink.

Besides... in new york, you don't ask questions, just go on about your day. Razz

If you've ever been in the NYC Subways you would know that speakers don't work..... EVER. Different stations have announcements that are too loud, too garbled, too quiet, or non existent - even though speakers are installed.

It's very difficult to understand the station announcements, let alone emergency instructions.

During a certain 2006 powergrid failure, people were trapped in a darkened subway car, without any news of what was going on above them.

I suppose disasters like that don't warrant a need to update/fix communications for emergencies.

 		The Earthworm thing stated as a means against terrorism could be fabricated towards the lower ranks maybe...it might be a monster fighting facility?

 		Well i dont know about you guys but that EarthWorm thing seems like a load of malarkey to me. But I think that the people who attacked Ganu in Manhanttan were not Tidowave but the Clover cult from the manga and Ganu = Kishin
