Pylons

The pylons are shooting up into the air because like an upended cup, it has to release the pressure....sorry, but no MGP involved except to pull the station down.....

i really cant see the firing, no matter how hard i try. it looks more like tracking lights at the bottom of it flashing, either cuz alarms are sounding to evacuatee, or the kind to keep airplanes or helicopters from crashing into it. since it IS one big ass mofo station

another observation:

The armed men firing into the water are firing in ALL DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. So either MGP is swallowing Chuai, or he has tentacles, or is wrapping its arms all around it..or something.


Or, they just don't know where MGP is, so they're firing blindly?

I love this quote in the translated Spanish piece -

Quote:
The platform appears to be the Chuai Station, located in the middle of the Atlantic, which sank a couple of days ago, even though there has been no official confirmation of the incident.


WHAT KIND OF CONFIRMATION DO YOU NEED? BLOODY GOD TELLING YOU IT HAPPENED?

i dont know, to me the part where the tag guard is pointing a weapon doesn't seem like hes pointing it AT the camera guy, it seems like hes pointing it at whatever is chasing the camera guy. if you pay attention, when the camera guy continues to run past him, the guard doesnt turn, he leaves his focus straight ahead of him, past the camera guy. if he followed the camera guy, we'd see the laser sight shine as he past him.


Yes, looks like he's shooting something behind the cameraman. Perhaps a mini grumpy?


Actually that kinda makes sense (well, at least kinda). If there is an infectious disease or something, mini GPs could be on the oil rig, because it's a completely isolated place. It might explain the shooting too.

It's interesting that that's it's underwater roar too.


Hey, weren't we talking about that in a thread a few days ago? How the roar resembles a whale, but we always assumed the monsters roar was above water.

Judging the size of MGP from the trailers, he has to be quite a bit larger than the station... big enough to bear hug it into a pile of floating crap. That's why the guards are shooting all around, cause he IS all around


Doesn't it seem just as possible that he's swallowing it? I mean he spits up that debris pretty quick and with an extreme pressure behind them.

Maybe the debri shooting up is not debri but the little MGPs. As someone has already said, it did look a bit like the explosion at the start of the first trailers...


It's metal grids and stuff, you see it before it hits the boat.

The area that the projectiles are fired from is interesting though, it doesn't all come from one spot.

And given the monster roars before it's spotted (in NY), I'm not sure why were assuming that anyway Smile

Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit!!! This footage is AWESOME! I heard the roars in each of the videos. Even with poor quality, the footage of the station being yoked is GREAT! So much for the closing off of the underwater lab theory (maybe...).

Questions:
If the news reports say that there were some human casualties, but even so, they have to have a shiteload of boats, copters, etc., to get 355 people off that platform. I didn't see any others the copter and the boat.

It would make sense that Tag would have a private army - they are shady and were probably working on something untoward at that station. Bold Futura was probably involved in a big way there. Plus, with TIDOwave on their backs, they probably felt they needed some heavy duty firepower, UNLESS, they had them there, because they KNEW they were dealing with something strange in the deep blue sea.....

Also, each news report had poor sound, with the background videos almost overpowering the reporters, making it hard to hear and translate. All of the reports were from Europe, too. Wonder when Americans will get wind of this, or at least the BBC.


I think the Americans have gotten wind of this, as I mentioned - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WSNS-TV - that may be the Spanish broadcast's root.

Also, after noticing the mentioning of Zwickau Engineering, I went searching on Google. Nothing except this - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwickau
Zwickau is apparently not a bad city to be in if you're a German engineer. No results for Dominic Moltgen, however.


Though that Spanish the newscaster was speaking was Castillian, spoken in Spain. We here in the Americas speak the "adulterated" version of Spanish (at least according to the Spaniards). Does Bermuda have a TV station, and why isn't BBC reporting anything?


Ah.

I'd say the BBC isn't reporting anything because maybe these aren't real news stations. I found no results for NNC News or Dieci News (even using the German and Italian variations of news) on the Italian, German or English Googles. Perhaps these stations don't exist.


True, I should have said the BBN, or some bogus English broadcasting network. Still strange that no English-speaking newscast is up yet...

To further the discussion of the supposed tentacle -- I can kind of see it if I "want to," but I dunno...if it was an obvious tentacle, you'd think the newscasts would address that.



However, if you want to assume that a tentacle is wrapping around one of the rig's big poles, the one it seems to be going after meshes well with how the rig falls apart.

Usually in the movies, they use "GNN" instead of "CNN". I expect an english broadcast soon. Maybe tonight, or tomorrow.

The tower that's being pulled down first is the derrick, is it not? So, MGP would be underneith messing with the drilling shit.

I also find it a cute possibility that little MGPs follow the big one around wherever he goes chucking bits of destroyed things through the air.
And, btw, it looks like the debris shoots up in a linear pattern, as if it were coming from holes that were alligned in a row.

Okay, if the Spanish translation is correct then it's clear these videos did not come from TAG, they simply responded to their release.

So they must have come from TIDOWAVE. They man in the helicopter if Ganu and they were on the way to the station to trade him for their people.

Sounds crazy I know....

The Whistle Blower may have also released the vids and they were TAG's.
