That's exciting! Very Happy IMBD says the seal will break next week.
The graphics remind of of Project Abraham.

Considering they still don't know for sure the fate of this movie, or whether it's going to be released on said date due to the legal problems, it's kind of surprising that they're still pushing a campaign on all fronts.

Then again, maybe a campaign is what they need to save this movie.

That's a pretty half-assed feed there.

where's the feed linked from? or was it just discovered?
there's no active link in the site source, so it's "half-assed-ness" may be because it's not supposed to exist (yet) Razz

Went searching through my firefox cache and saw it, disassembled the flash but since im no programmer I can only guess that I saw the feed referenced a few times, so yeah, Don't think they mean much but still, it's there.

The fact that it might not have been meant to be found, but was, *IS* "half-assed" by definition. Wink

And, for the record, it's apparently referenced by the Flash file.

In the case of it being in the flash source, I wouldn't call that 'half-assed'. Give'em a break. If it's not yet in-game (intended to be found), and the content is irrelevent, then ignore it... only a special few might actually attempt to decompile flash.
So finding irrelevent assets by decompiling code and labeling it 'half-assed' work smacks of arrogance... *shrug*
just sayin'...

-it's not linked anywhere.
-it's found in decompiled source code not easily or readily available to anyone who doesn't know how to get there.
-the file bears no visible relevence to the viral itself; even contains 'test' data.

...oh well. Coffee
patience Razz

I haven't decompiled the Flash file; just noticed it loaded in my cache as well. I assume it came from the Flash.

Do we know if this is truly official? Yeah, I know it came from "/Film", but at one point they also thought Ethan Haas was for Cloverfield... Rolling Eyes

Uh, OK. The entire list wasn't necessary; I get the point. Very Happy

(ETA: Damn it, Paramount, how many sequels to "Dance Flick" you plan on making?!?)

So what's the word on http://www.thenewfrontiersman.net/?

I've been dying for a Watchmen viral to kick up. Anyone think there is going to be anything to this?
