 		Picture # 9
The Night Vision Photo is the latest in the Cloverfield Case File...I still whole heartedly support this Theory!

BTW: I talk to a Navy friend of mine today regarding the 8th photo. Apparently, the wrecked ship is not military. It maybe some type of dredge or cargo....like 'The Liberty" the booms gave him that impression. The ship on the left...is NOT U.S. It has a square I beam formation on its decks which is typical for a UK or French ship. The ship on the right has a blue circle with a white "P" in the middle..."No clue!"

 		Wow, this thread went off on a tangent in a hurry. Me and Squirrel were discussing the possible use and purpose of the pics on 01-18-08.com. And we got off on myspace pages and weather in January and all sorts of stuff!


Let's try again. I think everything on 01-18-08.com is part of a larger file pertaining to the "Cloverfield" incident in New York City on (Date unknown as of now!), and things such as the datestamps could be the dates the images are pulled from the video camera, and the writing on the backs could just be to give clues for the marketing campaign, and that writing won't be there when we get to see the whole file.

 		Just so we don't leave a blurry line about the nuclear fallout question...

The Chernobyl disaster was so bad because the radiation was flung far away from the plant through a steam pressure explosion. Once air hit the core, it caught fire, releasing even more radiation into the area. The area is saturated with radiation simply due to the long exposure of the area to a burning radioactive core. In fact, the radiation caused problems all throughout Europe and the Soviet Union didn't tell anyone the plant had an accident for a week or two after the even.

Now, a nuke is different. The fallout is not as severe to the shorter half-life of the nuclear explosion. The radiation dissipates at a much faster rate than the radiation from a nuclear reactor.

What you should be asking is how in the world the camera survived a nuclear explosion in the first place if the bomb went off in Central Park and most things withing a few miles of a nuke are completely destroyed.

If MGP is nuked in Central Park, perhaps he's between Rob, Beth and the camera. His sheer bulk blocks "Some" of the blast, allowing the camera to simply be buried under debris, instead of being flash-fried.

If the ARG happens after the movie, it could cover some of the discrepencies, except, if the ARG is happening after the attack, then everyone IN the ARG (Rob, Beth, Marlena, ect...) are kinda, Dead.

Ah, so they'd like bomb the upper west side, perhaps the building from a certain movie about four guys, ghosts, and a giant marshmallow man, which roasts MGP who falls during the shockwave but stayed standing through the initial blast to protect a portion of Central Park from radiation blasts. (which happens at roughly the same time that the blinding light occurs right after the nuke goes off).

Now, here's hoping MGP's corpse isn't laying on top of the camera when they retrieve it, that would be a nasty job for the recovery team.

 		I suspect there isn't a corpse. Apparently, we don't get an answer to "Did they kill it?", cause the video ends before the nuke blast. I suspect the new pic on 01-18-08 is After the New York attack. The sucker can even take a nuke and keep on squishing.

I read the interview.

But put that aside. TAG's site stated that Chuai(again sorry if misspelled) would open in September of 2007. Then we get the video which show is sinking/destroyed sometime around late December(sorry if timing is wrong). We can pretty much figure out that it was the monster that did that. Now the only way Starships' theory can work is if the station is opened after the attack on NYC. I read a few sentences of a review of a screening(if it was true) that TAG and Slusho! arent mentioned once. So maybe(this is my theory if in fact MGP attacks in May) MGP does his thing in NYC. Goes into isolation in the Atlantic ocean. TAG "sees" something there because of their satellite or sonar and decide to build a station over it. TIDOwave becomes aware of this and does their thing of investigating it all. Then the News reports come out and eventually TAG is found to have known of MGP where-abouts. Thats where Starships' Theory comes in. TAG is brought to court yada yada yada. Maybe our ARG happens after the movie.

My .02 please add or criticize


The Theory is that the file is building to support a case....Designate Cloverfield...we are trying to support the time stamps with the 'nuke strike' which is supported in one of the commercials, but hmmmm. We still do not know if the writing and time stamps are 'viral' or a part of the Case...

We don't know if the nuke strike actually happens. They said 'we will try one more thing'...but according to the "people who saw the film" we never see what happens... did they have a strike? We don't know, It is a Bitch that the producers say in a public forum that the movie occures in May...

 		I don't think it can be a nuke strike. If I do believe that a nuclear bomb produces a rather large magnetic pulse that destroys all electronic devives. I am by no means an expert but I would think that the tape would be no good. Maybe a cd/dvd could survive.....

opinions please?

 		I'm pretty sure a dvd or a cd can be wiped out by a magnetic force.

harddrive perhaps? Honestly, I think they just didn't think about that when they typed up the Case designate stuff. People gotta realize that this movie wasn't created over the years... all this stuff was made up w/in the last year. and even then they were wingin' it. It didn't really leave much time for research.

 		EMP
If it is a strike...the Elecromagnectic Pulse will effect power generation systems...Magnectic systems? Anyone?

We don't know that this is what actually happens...but how do we explain the time stamps....01-18-08 and May 08?

The "Case" continues to build with the 01-18-08 Files....

The Writing....viral?

"VIRAL" Hmmmm......

Yeah, we discussed that when it came to light there was a nuke strike. The camera SHOULDN'T survive, but since there's a movie, it obviously DOES.

I dunno. Does a small, tactical nuke produce the same kind of EMP that one of the planet busting ones does? If they DO nuke NY, I'm sure they would use a Tac Nuke, to minimize the distruction and fallout.
