 		[FRINGE][SHOW] Clues from pilot episode
** I split this thread from the original, which can be found here. -- jamesi

Watching the show... very awesome. Could someone take the little images from between the show and commercials and overlay them? Maybe a message in the little lights, we've had braille before. Just a suggestion.

Yeah, there is definitely something in the images and the placement of the dot. Saw a frog with an omega on it... we need to get screen caps of all of these.

Oh, and...loving the pilot.

 		-Hand with six fingers
-Frog with Phi on it
-Halved apple had fetii in the seeds

This was not highlighted as it was in the preview however. You had to look very closely to see them.

 		Watching it too. May be able to do screen caps tomorrow when they put it on Fox website if nobody does it first. Oh, and its Phi not Omega.

Also, there is a part when Olivia is questioning Richard Steig and Walter Bishop is messing around with the recording equipment. Olivia says something and it's repeated twice. Sounded like a kl00 when I heard it.

 		the fringe symbols found on the official site (butterfly, leaf, hand, apple, frog, flower, seahorse, smoke) all seem to have a 'modification'...

the initial images in the show were unedited (butterfly, leaf, hand, apple, frog) followed by modified versions (hand +a finger, apple +fetuses, frog +phi, etc)

The Kayak in Dunham's dream sequence also had some writing on it. Seems it's different between the leaked version and the official version though. The leaked version has "CONSTANT 1.61803" on the upper left (see clip) but reports are that "zeno" and the Phi symbol appeared on it tonight. Waiting to see a screen of that =)

Zeno - Zeno's paradox?

 		Damn I turned away for a second and missed what the blurb about massive dynamic at the end. I heard the jingle and when I turned back I saw the logo and that was it. Anyone catch anything?

Just icons for their various services, now available for reading on the MD site.

 		I wonder why they changed the Massive Dynamic building in the pilot?

It looked like this in the "leaked" version:


Could be for numerous resons; it was a place holder (like the music in the leaked pilot), artistic preference, or maybe they weren't allowed to rip off the design (it is pretty much a cut and paste of the Royal Ontario Museum)



Like I said, probably nothing, but there have already been some whispers saying that some of the changes made between the leaked and official pilot could hold some significance....

 		Is it just me or does the "leaked" version look incredibly faked and shopped?

Just a note for anyone interested- the pilot episode is widely available online already. It 'leaked' months ago (if you want to call an intentional early internet distribution of nearly complete material in order to create buzz a 'leak'...). I saw it twice at Comic-Con, but will still watch tonight to see if any new ARGish material is included (MD commercials, codes/clues, etc).


Did you notice that they cut a second or two from the co-pilot's shocking reveal just before the opening credits?

It's not just you, when I first saw it all I could think was WTF?
Funny thing is, though, the building interior is the same and it matches much better with the original version, with it's large angular rooms and "futuristic" design. When I watched the show tonight and saw the new MD building, I thought it was an improvement, but when the went inside and it was exactly the same, all I could do was chuckle a little.

Just finished watching it on the west coast. I thought I might have seen a few minor cuts throughout, to tone things down a bit, but wasn't completely sure. If you saw it too then it's definitely possible.

This was almost identical to the Comic-Con version, the main difference being the loss of the 's' from 'Dynamics'. Either they ran into legal trouble with the name, or they wanted to ensure the show properly integrated with the extended experience. I know massivedynamics.com was already registered long before Fringe (two years ago), so they went with massivedynamic.com instead. Could be a simple solution to correctly direct traffic.

The symbols shown before each commercial were the same in the Comic-Con version, all the marketing material I've collected, and in the pre-game viral stuff. In all, nothing really jumped out at me as being a new 'clue', though I'll have to sit down and scan through a few scenes to be sure.

Ah, and there it is... glowingmonkeys.com definitely wasn't thrown in there by accident. There have been a few links to OOG sites in the pre-game, but the registry info definitely looks right for this to be part of the ARG.
