[SPEC] Black object in water in new videos
Come here.

This thread is for people who want to discuss the black thing floating in the water, so that it wouldn't choke the other thread with posts: I had to click on "post reply" 6 times, because so many people were replying!!!!

This is not meant to be a trout, merely a new thread so multiple conversations won't happen at once in one thread page.

Edit - tagged - I'm not sure I entirely agree with your justification, but I'll let you get away with it this time - MikeyJ

Re: Blackish Stuff in the Water and Stuff like that.
Come here.

I've finished anyway, I'm only interested in what it looks like, but there's not much to go on with this clip.

All I'll say is Mr GrumpyPants is not bright green!
There is green lighting on the Woolworth building, top right, which illuminates the top half of him.
The bottom half looks brown, which is the lighting from the street. So he could be any mix of green, brown, or grey. We don't know yet.

Now look, I've tried to not sign up to unfiction's forums for MONTHS now, just frequenting the forums everyday specifically for Cloverfield stuff. I can't stand it any longer. This stupid topic has broken this camel's back. Or donkey, or whatever it is.

ANd now, from page 32 of the new video thread:

it's smoke


There it is ladies and gentlemen. On more time for impact...


IT'S SMOKE

Now to get our evidence. Pull up the spanish trailer and pause it at 26 seconds. This is when the station first begins to capsize. If you look just above the pillar on the right you'll see a large black thing.

This is the beginning of our black object. Smoke has emitted from the building.

NOW, the reason that most people have overlooked this is because the footage from the camera moves so we see a great shot of the legs of everyone in the chopper. Keep in mind that the chopper is moving in a circle around the platform and at exactly 33 seconds we see the station again.

Insert "MGP", which is in fact just smoke.

Still not convinced? Check where the smoke is coming from. Note how once that section of the station is submerged the mysterious black MGP has now "swam" to the right.

The smoke trail has ended because the flame is extinguished.


Watch it again and again and again if you have to, but one more time, for the record, MGP or "bloop" is nothing more than smoke.

Welcome Morph. Nice first post. Now go find out where these damn videos came from.

Please, somebody. Stop talking about the black thing in the water.

Thanks! I agree, less talk of Smoke on the Water, more finding of the source of these videos. I know someone mentioned having contact with another person. I'll see if I can find it again.

It's vague on purpose. They want you to try and guess. Could be a bit of the critter, could be nothing. It really honestly doesn't matter either way. We know it's there, the roar more than gives it away. It destroyed it. So may well be a tiny piece of it. And you can't tell squat from what you can see.

well, from what the Spanish guy said when the one guy here messaged him and asked where he got it from, he said he got it e-mailed to him from a site, you goto that site and its a video-ish site, i guess its a daily video site where they put up stuff daily, but since i don't speak Spanish idk what it is

but i'd have to assume, like what they did to the second and third memo from the WB, that they are sending them to the major video sites of each country, but if thats true then it'd be on youtube, like the rest, everything ends up on youtube eventually

The English version of the video makes a point of mentioning the black shadow, apparently it's oil leaking into the ocean.

It's been mentioned a long time ago, even when the first teaser and poster came out. Personally, I'd be very surprised to see that we would be dealing with a "smoke-monster"... I don't think we're going to be dealing with a smoke-monster, sounds to much like a spin-off for Lost.

Even though the argument was on the other thread, i still have like 20 pages to plough through first >.<

Anyways, people are saying the black object moving away from the station is the boat the people are escaping on... yea its nice that you try proving this with camera angles but, what about the fact that the object is BLACK and the boat is WHITE...?

That object cannot be the boat the video was recorded from.

PS: is it just me, or are the forums under MASSIVE stress? because it takes FOREVER for me to load new pages...

As far as we know there is no oil at that rig. According to the Whistleblower's memo found in some slusho hat orders to some of us here.
