"The whole scene in the subway," Stahl-David said when asked for his favorite moment. "Once we go in there and get stuck and have to walk through those tunnels ... it's not a nice place to be ... I can't wait for the world to see that, and to hear their reactions."
First time I've heard of this scene....

Thanks, Fignut.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"The concept of Slusho! is something that I'm not at liberty to discuss," he recited robotically, only half-kidding. "I think [my character] might've been better off if he found some Slusho! [during the attack], but that would've been too much like Popeye eating his can of spinach."
That's kinda wierd, supports the effect Slusho has on people.

Gotta love that deep-sea ingredient!

Your Welcome. Yeah, that sounds intense...could lead to many different ideas about what's going to go on down there.(in the subway) Has it been a solid confirm on the presence of little monsters in this movie? Cause if not, this may add yet another brick to that line of thought. Makes sense...stuck in a NYC subway getting run down by Grumpypant's little posse. Or...not.
hmmmm.....
EDIT: yeah the Slusho! comment was interesting as well.

We did, however, learn that the monster is not named in the movie.
Grumpypants it is!

military Yep...and it almost seems insinuated that out of all the tapes found...why is this one so important. I could've read too much into it though.
ALSO: No mention of Jamie and/or Teddy as being a part of the group eh? Almost proves beyond a doubt that those 2 are ARG characters only??

First time I've heard of this scene....
When they hear the insect like noises and then start yelling "Run, run, run!" in trailer #2, it's clear they're in a subway tunnel. You can see the stop/go track signals in the distance ahead of them.

The mind is old and the eyes are getting older.
You are correct....I totally forgot about that scene.
Also, I love the pic in this article...can't wait to see what they are holding the door against on the other side.

Neat find Fignut...Good read.
But everyone knows, behind that door is the HUGE wave of
speculation thats been created over the last few months...
And it is ugly, angry and very confused...

good interview.
I'm surprised that after reading this
no one has dissected the subway scene again.
According to him its a very big scene in the movie...
so I'm definitely going to pay close attention at that point.
What sucks about this though is
the scene is shot almost completely in the dark.
So, how are we going to see what's happening?
o-O
This article was very useful in many ways.

Thanx! Cool and interesting.
What was the thing with spinach? I've never seen Popeye, so I cannot understand that symbolic,
could somebody explain it pls?
And subway scene - we've everybody seen the set pics from subway entry. Wow, I wonder if it will be like Kontrol
