 		JJ is probably just tired more than stoned. Look at me I am stoned and JJ does not look like this.

Probably the Star Trek, LOST, Cloverfield schedule. Oh wait, maybe he is stoned.

 		I know this is off topic but did anyone ever figure out the "Randy" puzzle?

So here are the things that stuck out to me in the clip:
*Marlena is clearly already very sick.
*Unlike the teaser, originally no-one thinks is an animal/monster. Which is much better, because I remember that when I saw the teaser for the first time, I rolled my eyes when they said "what kind of animal sounds like that?", because the immediate reaction would be "its an earthquake", and the animal thing was just to put an idea of a monster in our heads.
*People were saying earlier in the game "why would the be stupid enough to go to the roof, stay inside!" now we know why; they're really close, close enough to see something from the roof.
*I like the idea someone gave that the monster comes from the oil tankers, considering the Tagruato/Oil connection.
*Yay! Profanity! Very Happy
*The SOL head has more than just scratch marks, it's got holes and ares tha look like they're...melted. As if it was exposed to extreme heat.
*What's with all the huge discharges of electricity?
*The monster can't be in the smoke, or at least not in most of it. We clearly see people running outside the store window after the smoke starts to pass by.
*Not a clue, just a technical question: Why is does the colour temperature change between when the first go outside (warm) to the "where's Jason?" part (cooler)?


See, I don't think Marlena's sick yet... I mean, she could be sick

But her look could also be an overly concerned one... Like she knows something.

Another reason why I think that is because she didn't respond when HUD asked her if she was okay. If someone asked me if I was okay, I'd say "I'm sick." If someone asked me if i was okay, but I secretly knew something that they didn't- I wouldn't say anything.

And this could mean that there will be another Jamie Video out.


I agree, there is no inclination that anyone is 'infected' that early into the story... As for later on, well the oompa loompa scene has proven somethin....

As for the electricity, well... Mr. Grumpy pants is a big dude... Him stomping around probably is just shaking cables and the such causing brown outs... The explosion in the beginning most definitely has to do with the oil tanker... A spark from something Mr. Grumpy pants is clawing at or something... Who knows... But if the monster comes from inside the oil tanker I'm going to be very disappointed... I mean, that would mean its growing really fast and all this dumb crap... I just want a giant pissed off thing terrorizing NYC!!!

*Also... Not to be a negative nancy, but the acting is very diverse in what we've seen. Some of the actors portray the situation perfectly. Others overplay it or underplay it... The extras for example... Alot of the performances involving extras seem a little lackluster... I think the acting is something we cant really pick out... I think Marlenas sick look is just bad acting (or to much alcho-mo-hol XD)

I dunno.

you're alright.


I believe in what Dennis did...I think the forum saw what it needed to see. I kiss no one's ass. Seriously. I think the exclusive is the real thing. I looked on early, and the blog excelled faster than I could keep up. I still support, whole hartedly, Dennis. He has not steared us wrong yet. If he is wrong for posting something that he should not have, I sincerely hope that Paramount, though I love Star Trek, has a legitament protest. Otherwise, Dennis in a free domocratic society has every right to free speech and to post any damn thing he wants to......If you have a problem with the Supper Squirrel Fu***ing bring it becouse I will deal with you as welll.....MF Dennis I support you..Proper English...

 		Wow. Thanks for that YouTube link, whoever posted that.

Looks great. I'm glad they took out some of the odd, mechanical dialogue. Sounds much more natural now. Good idea showing the monster (or at least, that clip of the monster) that early into the movie, rather than waiting halfway through.

I'm excited to see this now. I hope the widget contest goes well for those who go for it.

On the other hand, there is a part, right after the SOL lands on the street, that a guy is yelling in the background. He says, "We're lost!", and then, the rest of what he yells was lost to me. Could anyone hear that better than I? It might not be important, but just thought I'd bring it up.

Thanks again for the clip. I'm excited.

P.S. - I don't see what Squirrel's yapping about. Care to fill me in.

 		Somebody needs to put together a frame by frame of the monster.

It is definitely filmed longer. In the trailer it only shows it slightly moving, in this video it shows him completely going behind the building.

I mean, you do know that the video will be back on. They didn't ban it or anything. It probably wasn't a leak. They realized that it wasn't ready, so they let him and a few other people know this. This wasn't a "slap on the wrist" e-mail he got. They were being very friendly. They know that he's a huge source of promotion and they want to give him the right stuff. They don't want him, or anyone else to get cheated out of winning this contest by having a dud posted on their site.

But, i mean that's not even your problem... You came on late today- it happens- and you were confused, and when someone finally started to help you out, you freaked the hell out and became all defensive, which in turn- made us defensive.

Yeah, everything seems really touched up. What we saw a couple of months ago was awesome, what were seeing now is AMAZING.

Squirrel? He's all pissy cause people are jumpin' Dennis' bones about removing the widget.

Look on page 6 for a transcript. What he says is actually pretty funny.

On another note, why do we think Marlena is already sick? I think I missed something.


She is very pale (almost green in my opinion) and does not responed to stimulas...ie.."Marlena, are you all right?"

God knows its from drinking like I said above...

Theres no plausible way she would be sick with anything... JJ knows that would just be STUPID.

(anything relating to the monster I mean...)

true... but she's pale anyways, so skin complexion is hard to go by. I honestly don't see her eating the "evidence" if anyone's implying that.

And i think she didn't answer him because she knew something. But that's my take on it.

Not that it's important, but the plural of stimulus is 'stimuli'.

 		I'm not sure why I think she's sick, it just seems like it. I knew someone who died from cancer a few years ago, z"l, and before she realized it was cancer, she just looked extremely sick, and would run out of the room with that exact look in her eyes that I saw in Marlena, not even able to talk. Obviously, this doesn't mean anything, one's real and ones acting, but just explaining my hunch that Marlena's very ill at that point.

What's genius about this viral marketing scheme is that its the lack of information that continues to grab us. JJ really didn't give us all that much more than we already had, but we're kissing his feet for, because its the little connecting pieces that string it all together and make all the difference.

EDIT: Why would it be stupid if Marlena's sick, WillardBateman? She drank the Slusho!, and it infected her. We have proof that she's in a critical condition later on in the film.
