 		Has anyone sent a message to Tragruato with the scanned page attached?

... kinda like black mail or some such. Maybe Tagruato corp. would be interested to know info on their Slusho products and the Nectar are out for the "public" to see. Shocked

 		anythings worth a try.

anyone fancy a go? i don't want to be put under the spotlight by a major organisation (be it fake or not) for attempted blackmail. They'll probably say "whats to say you ain't the blackmailer??? hmmm?" and then they will send their henchmen round and rough me up...... Shocked *peaks through his curtains*

 		I'm on it.

*EDIT* Message sent to Tagruato:

Quote:
I am still looking to hear from you regarding distribution opportunities, but I have received some disconcerting information that needs clarification.

Attached is an attachment I received through anonymous email, reportedly linked to the Ravaille Research Center you are now disassociating yourselves with on your website. It's not clear, so I'm answering them back to try to get clarification, but it points to some potential risks in your product.

I personally think they're unfounded - you would not have gotten as far as you have if these were true - but I am concerned what effect this might have if it gets the attention of the FDA in the states. Suffice to say, I have some associates that have assisted me in the past, as well as some good contacts in lobbying groups, that can assist you in quashing these unfounded rumors before it causes problems regarding your presence in the states.

Please clarify the situation for us please. If necessary, we will be more than happy to sign and deliver a Non-Disclosure Agreement to ensure privacy in these communications.

Thank you.

 		Someone should e-mail Tagruato pretending to be a stock holder. They would have to disclose certain information about their product to investors. They're obviously concerned about what investors think. If you sound pissed off enough, they might disclose some more information to prevent you from selling off your shares.

I'd do it, but I'm off to Thanksgiving celebrations...

So, a fake article in a fake book about a fake documentary? House of Leaves anyone? Funny to think that so much of Cloverfield bears a striking resemblance to Danielewski's novel and that it was also a story involving several people shooting a documentary which involved a monster. The House of Leaves monster being a minotaur...

Crazy. Looks like Abrams picked up a few pointers from the book. (House of Leaves is also mentioned on one of the Slusho 7's myspace page.[/i])


Exactly, the whole hype we experience with the trailers are just a repeating of a hype around "Navidson records". I find, Danielewski was really genious, or simply he can understand very well the group psychology.

And we exist in the fictional level of Zampano, imho.


I find the new trailer to bear quite the resemblance to House of Leaves. With all other citizens of Manhattan hiding, running or otherwise vacant from many of the scenes, members of the Slusho 7 seem determined to head right into the eye of the storm as it were, to the place where the monster has been wreaking havoc. Likewise, Navidson, Tom and Reston in the book kept plunging deeper towards the monster they encountered. All for the sake of documenting the events on Hi 8 cameras for the world to see.

 		1. Nighthawk, "A" for effort, but remember that JJ wants us to find out more information, so being so excruciatingly cautious in your wording may be a waste of your time. The guys "running" Tagruato are Hollywoodites (sp?), aspiring scriptwriters perhaps...
2. Did anybody realize that Tagruato never distances themselves with the allegations about (to quote 5Pancakes) "the weird affect it's having on people," but only from the fact that "there is no Seabed's Nectar available outside their contained factories." As in, what investors are really worried about is that rival companies may have access to Seabed's Nectar, as opposed to the health dangers, according to Tagruato.

Oh come now, it's not like I have anything else to do today on Thanksgiving... Besides, play along, will ya? Smile

And it probably took me less time to write that email than it took them to update the Tagruato page. I've been an aspiring writer, too...

 		OK, I've sent 2 emails, to 5pancakes and to tagruato.jp.

Hope, they'll understand what I mean with my miserable English.

To 5pancakes (something tragical, position: rage against Tagruato)

Quote:
Dear 5Pancakes,

I'm also worry about my girlfriend, she drinks Slusho! in very alarming dosis. I think, there is something to do against Tagruato.

Btw do you have another sites of the Article by Dr. Abe? I would be glad to read the whole report and to know, what does my girlfriend drinks and how I can help her...

Or perhaps do you have some other informations about the problem?

Best regards,
sincerely yours
Endoman


And to Tagruato (now are RRC and Dr. Abe the bad guys)

Quote:
Dear Tagruato team,

I fully support your remonstrance. The actings of Ravaille Research
Center are really unscientific. I've read the only one page of Dr.
Abe's pasquil and it was really clear which intentions he follows: he
doubts your researches just because he cannot reach your scientific
level.

I have a question, whether I could read the other pages of this
remarkably negative presentation of your great work? Are there some
informations more about this Dr. Abe and his "Ravaille Research
Center". I'm sorry if the informations are confidental. But if they
are officially, I would be glad to have some more informations about
it.

And also I would be glad to help you to spread the happiness of Slusho
also in Europe.

Fully supporting you,

VA


Well, various positions, same hope: an answer.

Still waiting...

 		Unfortunately, even though they don't celebrate Thanksgiving in Japan, they do at Paramount... We'll have to wait a day at least. Smile
