 		I'm thinking that it's just a very fortunate coincidence for the Ethan Haas/Mind Storm Labs folks, but not a gamejack.

 		yeah I thought it was a little too coincedental that an ARG site, named for a character in a cancelled CBS show, was launched the same day as the imdb page for another internet hyped movie goes up, which another castmember of that show was in. The Mind Storm guys would have had to know in advance that some one from the CLass was going to be in cloverfield and that they purposely picked the name ethan haas to capitolize on that obscure fact.

Just goes to show that if you look hard enough you can find connections between whatever you want. Which is why the main thread for Cloverfield is over 300 pages lol.

 		The coincidence just seems MASSIVELY improbable to me, in the context of these two apocalyptic IPs launching at the same time and how they've been mixed together.

 		On a related note, I found this over at IMDB and was wondering if anyone with stronger web skills could tell me if this guy is high or not:

Quote:
original message:
not sure if this has been brought up, but
themonstrousmovie.com comes from http://cdn.eyewonder.com/
the link is forbidden, but will link you to donny mak0wer's red interactive agency at eyewonder.com with an embedded link to ethan haas http://www.ff0000.com/

UPDATE--------->

How does the domain themonstrousmovie.com have any connection to eyewonder?


the server is currently down (but was up the day i first tried this)

when you type in themonstrousmovie.com, the page starts loading from cdn.eyewonder.com (obviously they will be the site developers)
when you try to go to cdn.eyewonder.com you get a "FORBIDDEN" message, but there's a link to http://www.eyewonder.com/ which has a video blurby by donny makower who owns red interactive agency ...
(there's other blurbys by companies who's site's are VERY strange ...)
but, red interactive has ff0000 embedded in their 'page info' and i just thought it was background or text color in some way, but i did not see any RED ...
UNTIL, i typed RED INTERACTIVE AGENCY into google and got this:
http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4GGIH_enUS211US212&q=red+interactive+agency
the link to red interactive takes you to ethan haas @ www.ff0000.com!!!
red interactive agency has one of the best urls ever. they also happen to be the firm behind ethanhaaswasright

so NO, i don't think it's The Monstous!

I stopped reading right there. Where did they make that assumption?

"themonstrousmovie.com" doesn't even have an IP address. It doesn't resolve to an IP even at the root server level.

Like Nighthawk mentioned themonstrousmovie.com has no published zone file, so the only way it could 'start loading' or much less 'resolve' is if the end user has some spyware/crapware or some other misconfigured system.

 		Now that I see it, "cdn" most probably stands for "content delivery network". So, yes, lookin' like spyware.

 		 Oh come on!
SLUSHO UPDATE - LOOK TO THE STARS!
I REALLY hate to beat a dead horse - but COME ON! I just went to the new Slusho update - and on the make-your-own-slusho page there's STARS IN THE BACKGROUND. AND one is flashing DIMLY, more dim than the rest... and you mouse over, it gives you the tip, " New Slusho flavors added!"...................... EXACTLY LIKE THE TIPS YOU GET FROM LOOKING TO THE STARS AND MOUSING OVER THE DIM ONES on Ethanhaaswasright.com - Did you guys play the games?

This is RIDICULOUS people. All the connections, and now even a DIRECT RESEMBLANCE from the Slusho.com site?!?!

How could they not have ANYTHING to do with each other??? With the latest flashing star-tip on Slusho.jp, I refuse to believe the two have no link. Or at LEAST it's a game-jack.

If you don't think I'm right, look for yourself! Go to Slusho, make your own flavor, you'll see the flashing star in the background. Mouse-over and you'll get the words to appear.

THEN go to ethanhaaswasright.com, do the puzzle and you'll get some flashing stars in the background! Mouse over to get THAT tip too!!! TRY it!

 		Oh my God in Heaven.
The quote, too? ARE YOU ONE OF US??
Ok, that's it. I've decided. They're connected. I went through the happy talk on Slusho.com just now, and the quote SPECIFICALLY says, "Are you one of us?"................ HELLO??

It's time to take down the sticky that says the two aren't linked. Why on EARTH, when they KNEW the fans had connected the two sites, would they deny the connection and then put references to it on the proven-to-be-connected slusho.jp???? The stars twinkling on the make-your-own-slusho page, AND the quote "Are you one of us?" EXACTLY like the default subject in the email you send to vanSPLATethanhaaswasright.com (I am one of you... help me" or whatever it exactly said.

Can someone tell me I'm wrong? Or was I right this whole time?!?

Jensey- go to EHWR and see where it leads you. The site now links to what it advertised for. Locky!

Okay, slappy, if you'd bothered to read or utilize the search you would know...also, you dont "mouse over" the slusho star...it pops up randomly.

Oh my God in Heaven.

 		Wow, nice group of people you got here.
Why is everyone so angry all the time?
I bet it's cuz you can't figure this stuff out, huh? I mean, honestly, don't sites like unfiction want traffic and people coming to share their opinions? And you guys just make people never want to return by being so rude, calling names, etc. I doubt the owner of this site would like your reactions to new visitors like this?

So forgive me, if I don't sit down all day and devote myself to finding the most flawless theories. And forgive me if I got caught up in my own little theory, feeling good about my own observations, even if they were incorrect.

I was just a happy, innocent, non-professional visitor, linking some stuff that I thought was cool or interesting to me, and you all made me look and feel stupid. Well, congratulations if that was your intent. You can go to sleep feeling good about making me feel bad.
