Super 8mm film cartridge

Ok so running out of thing to analyze, here. What o you guys think about this frame?

Looks like a flask in the lower right corner but maybe is a Super 8mm film cartridge. Notice the curve...

I believe those are supposed to be the sprocket holes showing.

Hmm maybe you're right. Comparing to super 8 sprocket holes now

ETA: Here is a piece of Super 8 film with sprocket holes. Coincidently, the object on the film is an alleged UFO

IT'S A LION!!!!111!! IT'S HUGE!11!!!1

edit: On a more serious note. The holes do seem to resemble the smaller sprocket holes found on super 8mm film (as opposed to reg. 8mm).

See this picture of a kodak super 8mm cartridge:

IMO that frame looks more like it was shot from the inside of the train, if you look above the flask on the right side, you can kinda make out a bed, plus light shinning thru

or maybe luggage, but it doesn't look like it fits a crash seen, least not the outside part

also, could someone look into that flask? not sure if i've seen anything on it, but there seems to be what looks like letters on the top of it, i'm barely able to see em, but i could be stretching just to make something happen...

I approve the above post. They reuse the same frame with different lightining through out the trailer and well in one, you would freak out if i told you what the image was that popped out in HD...........

f-ing E.T. The kid looking up at him, no joke. VERY visible.

Voices in the trailer
Who says what??

Hey guys, sorry if I'm being stupid but this is the apparent voice over from the Trailer:

"Groom Lake One, Wright-Patt (something) [SITREP?] ETA. Over."
"Wright-Patt, Groom Lake One actual. Cargo intact, ETA on schedule."
"Copy Groom Lake One, expect your..OH MY GOD."

Am I mistaken by thinking that, if the train is Groom Lake One, then the middle quote is from them. Does this not mean it's the guy at the air force base who screams OMG? Am I hearing/reading this wrong? That it's not the train driver who is yelling??

Scream
Train Director

Ya, its the Train Director thats screaming, not the truck drive. All we know about the truck driver is the licence plate and truck. Also, has anyone reversed tracked the licence plate yet?

Your idea makes sense based on my review of the audio, but i just think it was poor editing or something by j.j.'s audio crew more than anything..

Hey guys just noticed something. In the frame with the flask there is something kinda random in the top right hand corner which is EXACTLY the same as in another shot. So I overlayed the two images in Photoshop and they line up perfectly. Makes sense seeing as the newspaper code required you to overlay the information. I think there could be another clue hidden in here somewhere.

I don't know what this means yet, but I do believe that each image is in this trailer for a reason.

I'm going to keep overlaying things. Let me know what you think??
