IF this is true, they didn't find the tape in january. its obviously passed hands a few times. why would they find a tape with a big notice that says "MULTIPLE SIGHTINGS..."

maybe the ARG continues and we find out his trip to Japan has been postponed until the spring - doesn't explain why it takes so long for MGP to make it to NY but maybe we'll find out later where he spent his time. there was never anything to say he was on a direct path to NY. maybe he went back to sleep or got lost. i don't know, just trying to make sense of it all.
Well, if they're planning on getting anything else to us, they have 5 days to do it.

This taking place in may stuff is even more confusing considering that the pictures on 01-18-08.com were timestamped for January 18th.

Said this in another thread but it bears repeating.
It looks like there were two major miscommunications between marketing and the screenwriters/editors
1) Marlena was one of the friends and knew everyone in the VMC. That's FALSE, by way of interview with the actress.
2) The going-away party (and as such the arrival of MGP in New York) happens on 1-18-08 in the VMC. FALSE again, since we now know the movie takes place in May, thanks to early reviews.
Stuff like this happens. Some novelizations have stuff in them that never made it into the movie or were changed at the last minute. Promotional clips get cut out. IT HAPPENS...especially when you don't give marketing all the details for fear of secrecy.
Ignore the Myspace pages and the dates on the photos. Then you can still salvage most of the VMCs story. MGP doesn't have to beeline from Chuai to NYC, you know.

I actually have leaks that the monster stopped at a 7/11 for a butterfinger... and a slushie. [Not a slusho]

So THAT'S why he's rampaging through New York. 300 foot tall brain freeze!

Well the pictures of the party on 1-18-08 where dated, obviously, 1-18-08.
I thought that was pretty concrete.
Edit: I see others have posted this, eh, whatever.

exactly.
So- the real mystery is, where is there a 7/11 at in the Atlantic Ocean?

You should read the Matt Reeves interviews.

I don't assume the actress knew anything about the marketing storyline (MySpace pages).
And the marketing people may not have been told the timeframe of the movie (whoops! side effect of all the secrecy).

this could be true- but she's also the second actress to say that as well. The actor who played Rob's character also said that Marlena doesn't really know the other characters that well.
She's roommates with Jamie- who's friends with Lil'.
