 		Wow, now that's look very interesting! If it's a fake, it's really good done.
Well, spoken Japanese sounds like it were a voice simulation, and the language is too formal to be used in commercial add. So it isn't produced in Japan, I suppose. (Japanese of Slusho-Commercial was much better, and Japanese of Chuai-broadcastings was great).

But anyway interesting.

If you need some help with Japanese btw, feel free to ask Smile

Oh, even read your reply Smile

I want to say, even if it isn't authentical commercial of Tagruato, but it's very well done! Awesome!

Sure, I'll look for it!
I need some Japanese brain junk food Smile

(Well, I'm translating Cloverfield screenplay now too Smile )

UPDATE.

Well, I fear, it is Chinese... The hand-written characters are btw. written by somebody, who doesn't speak and write Chinese/Japanese. It seems to be written off original, because the writing style is not correct.

Anyway, here is what I've got from the hand-written text:

此位不?UV

? - I couldn't find this character in Japanese, so I suppose, it's Chinese.

The typed text is this:

此位不用?油 (the same unidentified character)

Well, to the meaning. Even if it's Chinese, I know the meaning of characters. Of course, there are plenty many "false friend", so since I only understand Japanese I cannot guarantee the correct meaning of Chinese.

此位 = it could mean "this place" or "here staying something"
不用 = "useless", "of no use", "unnecessary", "waste"
油 = "oil"

My very wildest speculation were: "It was unnecessary (waste) to look for oil here" (resp. Chuai station).

Kinda new message of Whistler Blower perhaps??

And perhaps you have to look on this place with UV?

 		Well, if they (the ones in charge of the ARG/ARE) apply this approach for the sequel's game, we're pretty much prepared in where and what to search when some thing pops up. We just need to watch out for any rumors from Matt Reeves, then start lurking.

 		Just a bunch of Cloverfield fans making some fun stuff...having nothing to do with a movie that's not being made.

Maybe they figure if the fans start hyping the idea, JJ will get moving.

Well, it's also possible. I know some examples when Puppet Masters became passive, and players did much stuff to re-activate PMs.

I miss anyway Cloverfield ARG, since it's "ending" was really sudden. Well, perhaps as the monster arrival in the movie...

Now THAT'S what I call a teaser! Shocked The one thing that jumps out at me as being a fake is the typo in the "Exlporing your world" line (see it at 0:39), right before the film melts. Other than that, I'm impressed!


Props goes to you UNIQUELYWIRED. I waited and waited and waited for SOMEONE to catch the typo.... and you did. You win! Yes, it's a fake. But, I really don't call them fakes. They are both originals that really don't say WHAT they really are, but it is intended to give everyone a good feeling that it's coming and just get excited about the possibilities. Let's face it, things have gotten stale. If I did that for you, my job is done.

I have (no thanks to you and with my deepest thanks for catching it with only 400+ views at this point) deleted and uploaded both vids for everyone's viewing pleasure.

More to come with some special surprises.
