or, teddy could be rob's brother, and it's possible that he told rob he was in trouble. The reason he didn't tell Hawk would be the age difference; he's closer to Ro'bs age, they're probably closer friends. Also, Rob is more of an insightful thinker - and he's into writing. Just the kind of person to expose Tag. Remeber the password - 'jllovesth. The whole reason he's going to Japan might be because Teddy's in trouble.

Rob and Jason "JJ" "Hawk" are both Hawkins.
Teddy is Hanssen (hence jllovesth).

all in all I think is a fair assumption to say rob is interviewing with Tagruato. Regardless of if he is or is not i don't think the new employee manual has healthcare benefits, info on relocation package, followed by a section on "Giant monster attacks and you"

Also, (my .02 cents) has anyone put out a good motive why Tagruato would want a giant monster to attack NYC? I am of the school of thought that seabed nectar is like popples and the Momma MGP is kicking ass for eating her babies. Anyways I just dont see what good destroying a major slusho market does for Tagruato

The idea that Tagruato leads the monster to NYC is nothing more than speculation, I, personally do not agree with it but some folks do.

Of course, it could be revenge for that 1998 travesty with Matthew Broderick, or maybe Hiroshima/Nagasaki. Indeed, revenge is a dish best served cold. Wink

Perhaps he's peeved he had to fly to Japan for the interview, and then got turned down? Perhaps he's just pissed cause he doesn't get the job....but he definitely looks a bit put out in his expression.

So, I would think that he either met with a hiring agency, or possibly some higher-ups from a company based in Japan (we still don't have confirmation from anyone that Rob is going to work for Tagruato - there ARE other companies in Japan Rolling Eyes )


Indeed, but they don't seem to have anything at all to do with this film or this ARE/ARG.

Probably not, but we know there is one more Hawkins sibling, I think. Didn't Rob post a picture of his nephew on his blog? If it isn't Hawk's kid, then it must belong to another (older?) member of their family.

WHAT? ARE YOU BLOODY INSANE? GODZILLA WAS A BLOODY TRAVESTY FROM THE VERY BEGINNING! THE ONLY COOL THING ABOUT IT WAS JEAN RENO (coz he's a kick-arse Frenchman)!

Anyway, back to the speculation.

I think it's pretty obvious his interview is with Slusho!/Tagruato, and he gets the job with Slusho!/Tagruato. Why do I say this, you ask, when we clearly have only circumstantial evidence to suggest this? Four words.

The plot demands it.

It would pay not to look to deeply into the story, seeing as this is still a movie, and, in the end, everything will connect up in the way most convenient to the story. Which means, in this case, Rob has an interview with Tagruato/Slusho!.

As for the Umbrella Corporation-style evacuation floated earlier - I doubt it. The base problem with this is why would Tag/Slush let a guy who has been working in their marketing section for two/three weeks all of the secrets about Tag/Slush? It's implausible. Also, the fact that the army were scrambled pretty damn quickly to meet the monster suggests it was simply a monster Tag has no control over, and Tag called it in.

I would still like to think Rob might return Beth's comment via Myspace.
I understand he might just phone or text her,or speak to her in person about how the interview went. (And what company he applied to!)
Im sure many of us have a Myspace account, but dont use that as a 'chat' platform, not anyways between your closest freinds.
But i did expect a whole lot more IG dialogue from the Slusho 7... Confused

Please Jamie say something sensible...PLZ...

Edit: 100th post...hai, I can has cheeseburger naw...kthx...
