I've used the "End of Line" sign off myself a few times. Good to see a shout out to that. Smile

EOL was actually a code indicating the end of a command line, which is why it was used by the MCP. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newline

Yes, the guy with the cane is him. I saw it mentioned on an interview with the director where he went over the images in the trailer.

But whatever.

Ha, it got started by Rusty responding to some of the details listed in the Aint It Cool link that Krakmunkey posted a page back. One of the details was the name of Sheen's character and the club he ran.

I'm a bit of a skeptic. AICN seems to be very good at taking some minor tips about upcoming content, then concocting an elaborate 'secret peek' story. Hard to believe that they'd keep so silent for so long with such a scoop, then tell us all about it when most of the details are already out there. Studios nearly never if ever confirm such visits,so it's easy to seem plausible. (I'm sure that if such a visit is official, there's a NDA signed stipulating when or if details can be released.) It's always interesting how much of the information is what we already know from publicity shots and recently released trailers. The description of the Pit Cell image, the description of characters, vehicles - all things we've recently seen. Doesn't sound nearly as juicy to say 'we know the name of that orange highlighted guy with the dual discs you saw in the trailer', does it?

We basically know the rough plot. I don't think their information is so horribly revolutionary as they'd like it to seem. In any event, 6 months from now everyone will have forgotten about the article and nobody will check for errors.

Well, almost nobody. I remember a certain 'extra' telling a story about Cloverfield...

Well, no 4th rejection yet, so either they liked my 350x350 badge or I'm not getting one. We'll see, I guess!

the quiz was released on the 1st right? we should start seeing the badges in the mail within the next week. anxious to see what they will lead us to. i agree that the employee numbers should be something online. maybe they'll have some type of login for employees show up on the ENCOM website....

FYI: Collider interview with Jeff Bridges.

Not much as far as spoilers, but there may be some. And he does mention the club's name and the term "end of line", which Jeff didn't even remember.

It's wild... it feels like they're interviewing The Dude. Wink
