[Viral/Trailhead?] Altars of Science
For the movie adaptation of Dan Brown's "Angels & Demons"

The Angel's & Demons official site (www.angelsanddemons.com) just recently put up a teaser trailer. If you look closely at the spinning Illuminati symbol, there are letters across its center when it first comes onscreen.

They spell out altarsofscience which leads to www.altarsofscience.com. Whois confirms that the site belongs to Sony. And the timer is counting down to May 15th, 2009, the movie's release date.

For those of you unfamiliar with the book, what we're seeing on the video is the same thing that the characters of the book see: a "live" feed of a stolen canister of antimatter that is presumably going to be used as a bomb.

Edit: In the page's source code there is a message "We will destroy your four pillars, brand your preferiti and sacrifice them on the altars of science...and then bring your church down upon you. Vatican City will be consumed by light." So it does indeed seem to still be a bomb threat against the Vatican by the Illuminati.

This may or may not be related to the official "Path of Illumination" movie contest starting in January: http://angelsanddemons.msn.com/Default.aspx?mid=en-us#/aboutcontest/

Angels and Demons was before the DaVinci Code.

Don't know if that helps in any way.

The "altar of science" reference is only found in the english movie, whereas the "Path of illumination" contest is for all languages.
Strange!

Thanks for the post Degravedi Smile . I dig those books and hope this pans out.

So Mark Palmer drew up my last tattoo. He's also the guy that created the Illuminati ambigram for that movie trailer. I just checked his site (HERE) and it has that trailer posted (scroll towards the bottom).
He also says:

We're currently also working on an "un-official" movie trailer to be released by us here at Wow Tattoos this week, so check back here again soon!

I'm not sure if that "un-official" trailer is related to this at all, but I guess we will see.

Hate to argue, but the Illuminati ambigram used in the trailer is the same one that was in the book, and the one in the book was created by John Langdon.

No where on that tattoo website does it say, we created that ambigram, it just says check out the trailer and pay attention to the ambigram.

@ danashulps
I'm not going to argue because you are right. I assumed that based on, well, assumption. Nuff said...Anywho, I hope this jumps off as I started waiting a month ago Very Happy

Btw, if anyone wants to make extra money waiting, there are some job posts open in the forum now Rolling Eyes

@Psysop: Yaha, it's sooooo tedious watching CAM 84 and waiting for the mega-evil illiminati to "brand your preferiti and sacrifice them on the altars of science" Laughing
