Has anyone thought that they are actually looking for real verification papers from real businesses to send real Slusho machines to, and that the "false business claims" are referring to all our emails?

Just a thought.

Nah - if Bad Robot/Paramount/JJabrams wanted to put "Slusho" in real stores, he/they wouldn't go about it by soliciting contacts on a fake IG website. Instead, someone would simply make a call; well, ok, a few calls. Still, they would NOT use an IG website.

Don't get me wrong - I certainly thought about it. But, it just don't add up, IMO.

I don't think it is intended for real businesses, at least no exclusively. On the distribution page it's practically begging us to email and inquire about it.

"STOP WAITING
opportunities are for everyone,
CONTACT US IMMEDIATELY!"

Sounds like a pretty strong prompting for the ARG players to contact them. Not to mention, there are lots of better ways to find US distributors than a small body of text on a predominately flash-based website.

They didn't have any opportunities for Apu's Kwik-e-mart.
Maybe I should file a discrimination lawsuit on his behalf.

If they wanted us to contact them for the ARG, and we all got those replies... them maybe those replies are part of the game.

While we wait for a diferent response, we should think about it. What if the false companies are not us? Maybe there is someone in the US interested in getting a large supply of Slusho for something different than selling it to the kids. A rival company trying to find the secret ingredient? Some rich slusho addict? The kid with the giant pet monster who eats only slusho?

Ah, you really made me laugh with that 'I'm only 13' Bit.

But yes, I meant a fictional company rival to Tagruato. Like Dum dum ice Cream Inc. trying to produce his own Slusho. And then Tagruato will release their monster so it can go and claim copyright on them.

If this movie turned out to be about one company stealing another's secret ingredient, I wold be so disappointed.

"Want to go see a monster movie?"
"Yeah!"
"I hope you like the exciting world of frozen drink companies!"
"What?"

When Tagruato was discovered, I began thinking Slusho! was just an amusing way to uncover this really cool corporation that does deep sea construction, drilling, and research. I'm not convinced that Slusho! itself is entirely vital to the monster's origin.

again that'd be 11:20 at night Japan time... late workers... they're email back from the US

Umm to all those that replied back to Mr. Toga , its Mrs. Toga, sounds like a secretary to Daiske Kagashima. I'm posting back that I'm representing a local computer gaming store (know the owner too). But I gave a website and said that the store wasn't incorproated (therefore no articles of incorporation), but I would be more than happy to give a copy of the business liscence. I also asked about any alcoholic or other controlled substances in Slusho! I'll post the exact wording if anything comes of it.
