What do you guys think?


I think the film comes out in January, and I think that until we have another hint or more information, we're come as far as we can.

They'll throw another picture up in a few days, and that will move us one step closer to the prize. But until that happens, folks, we're hung.


Thoroughly agreed. I'm calling it a day at this point. There's very likely no more active clues to get us where we need to go, and if there are, well, they're so well hidden that it's not fun anymore.

in the message from Abrams it reads:

"Regarding the online stuff you posted: yeah, we're doing some fun stuff on the web. But, obviously, if the movie doesn't kick some massive ASS, who gives a rat's about what's online? So as you can imagine, we're focusing mostly on THAT," Abrams wrote. "For what it's worth, the only site of ours that people have even FOUND is the 1-18-08.com site. The others (like the Ethan Haas sites) have nothing to do with us."

he writes 'who gives a rat's about what's online?'

why would he omit the word ASS..it seems like an unlikely omission...and seems more intentional than anything...

What do you guys think?


It's a grammatical omission. He's referencing the the massive ass that needs to be kicked by the movie. If the movie doesn't kick massive ass, then who gives a rat's about...blah blah.

Hey Everyone i'm new so bare with me on this.

I was browsing around on one of my fav websites IMDB and i was looking through the forum and saw a post called this.

"Unlockable picture on http://www.1-18-08. com/"

So i was reading the first post and this is what guy had to say.

"I do not know wtf did I clicked but I was messing around with the pictures like rotating them. Out of no where another picture popped up. What I saw on the picture 1-18-08 and the time was 1:18 AM. The picture had 3 unknown people on it which were hiding behind a wall looking to the sky. So I had to refresh my page because it was frozen. The picture was gone after the page got refreshed Idk if this means they are going to put the picture up soon or something or some glitch with the website. But im trying to mess around with the pictures again to see wtf did I do to unlock it. O ya one of the guys on the picture had a SLUSHO logo on them. No it wasnt the same person from the previous picture on the website nor Rob. People help me figure out how did I do this cause I really got no idea."

Now a bunch of people posted back trying to figure out what he did. Now to me i think its bull but then again you never now

here is the direct link to the post (you may need to register on the site before viewing)

Because the swf file was edited, and obviously is set to not be able to change the current settings of it (eg: Play, Zoom, et. al.)

Is it possible there could be clues on the listed actor's websites?

Got bored

I got bored at work and looked at the pictures and decided to use the times stamped on the photos as .com's.

Only 12:01 cam up. www.12-01.com Some Japenese pet store. I doubt this has anything to do with the movie but who knows at this point.

 slusho wierdness
index.swf is weird too

Okay, so I've been going over the index.swf file on slusho and trying to find inconsistencies.

Here's what I've found so far:

1.) (click here for uber-wide image)
(moderator removed giantic embedded image above -- catherwood)

See this strange triangle on the left? This doesn't appear on the site but yet is present in the picture files. I think that it's hidden via some clever alpha blending. Regardless, do these markings mean anything to any of you?

2.)
(click here for large image)
(moderator removed giantic embedded image above -- catherwood)

Now this is weird. You'll notice that this isn't an option and never shows up like this in the actual website. To make the "flavors" text for the navigation button text, they actually cover up both the english text and what is supposed to be "menu" and leave only the Japanese for "flavors" (with no parenthesis) and manually add the English "Flavors" text below it to make the final object. It's a very roundabout way to make such text. Why would they do this?

This might be a flash designer trying to cover up a mistake, but who knows, it could be something too. Can anybody confirm that the first Japanese word truly means menu? Maybe somebody might try to e-mail the customer support using the keyword "menu"?

BTW, the image number for this is image 69. Maybe that's relevant?

3.)

This is very strange too, and it's like this on history.swf too. For some reason, this text is initially reversed. Before the image is displayed is reversed again in the final animation. Again, why would they do this? Is this a hint that maybe we need to reverse the text (maybe the Japanese)?


-------------------
What I haven't found:

1.) No weird scripts like in history.swf
2.) No outbound links of any kind.

I wanted to add on the subject of zooming.

You can get around it by going to the pic files
http://www.1-18-08.com/images/pic_1.swf
http://www.1-18-08.com/images/pic_2.swf

So far no other single digit pics and the /images/ directory is inaccessible.
