But I'm currently calling BS on the call sheet.

There is something very, very fishy about it.


Like that it was probably planted by National Lampoon?


Like there shouldn't be speculation on who planted it, but rather on the validity of this call sheet. I can understand everyone wants more, but you can't just take the first scrap throw out and be content. I say until we get more news from Abrams or an IG site, BS on all of this "information" that has been popping up lately. (Except the set films. GJ, Nooneimportant77)

Sorry, but has anyone actually read the NYE story about the call sheet?

Quote:
While we were near the film's set on the southwest corner of Central Park, a random crew member handed us something interesting: a call sheet for "day 33 of 33" of shooting that appears to give away Cloverfield's ending — and alternate ending! Major spoilers ahead, obviously.


Uh... What?

"Hey, you! I have no idea who the hell you are, but here's an ultra-secret document that someone is probably keeping track of that tells you everything you need to know." [Ninja vanish]

Nobody considers that exceedingly convenient? Hell, the DOCUMENT ITSELF says it's a "closed set."


I guess I should RTFA once in a while. That certainly is questionable.

Either this is a very deliberate and very thought-out plant/prank (plank?) or that "random crew member" is now unemployed.

 		Could it be an IG clue?
Considering all the evidence, I've got to throw in with those who are calling fake. My only question now is whether or not the fake is somehow IG. In other words, it's definitely a Plank, but is it a plant or a prank?

I don't really see how it could be IG, either, unless things are going to get seriously meta. Which would be crazy cool, but unlikely. In any case, I'm not really familiar enough with call sheet format to figure out if anything stands out as odd or worth investigation.

 		Guy Benhamou
Could be....
So I was trying to figure out if there was a clue imbedded in that call sheet somewhere, so I looked into the address at Trump Tower listed as the location for scene 1: Benhamou Residence, Trump Int'l Hotel & Tower, 1 Central Park West @ 60th Street, Apt 26D.

Here's the thing. It's a correct address for the CEO of a major jewel sourcing firm, Guy Benhamou. WTF. If this is some sort of "plank," why would the plankers be giving away the address of a rich CEO? This seems to lend the Call Sheet a bit of legitimacy.

Not that it doesn't strike me as odd that they'd be filming "Beth's apartment" in this guy's living room.

Anyhow, here's evidence that it's the correct address for Guy Benhamou. (Don't worry, the search is legit. It's all on public record.)

 		yes i've been on sets and worked with call sheets, "thats a wrap" means the end of filming on location in NY, they're probably still filming in LA but hey we dont have a call sheet for that now do we.

 		Almost certainly a prank.

GanuYoshida.com. Look at the page source.

The page is hosted at harvardlampoon.com/dude.html.

EDIT: Covered in another thread.

 		So, do we think that National Lampoon planted this call sheet as a prank? Is there a consensus?

I think the locations listed on the call sheet are all actual locations in the city where they would be filming. I'm betting this isn't a clue of any kind..

I'm not sure that if this were a prank they would leave a real person's home address on it.

In any event, I know that no one will try to bother the people who live at that address.

I hope no one goes so far as to knock on the door and ask, "ARE YOU MY MAIN DUDE?"

That's what I was thinking, but there is still the question of the National Lampoon involvement.

At first, I found it odd that someone's swank Trump Towers apartment would be used to film Beth's living space, but then I realized that Beth is a program trader for Citigroup. So, maybe it's not so odd.

(On a separate note, program trading's kind of interesting, as it turns out.)

 		I just got an e-mail from Paramount's lawyers asking me to remove the "document" from slashfilm. Looks like it's legit, or at least Paramount wants us to think it's legit. I'm going to do a full posting on slashfilm later about this.
