The site has a lot of french writings and we're decrypting them now and they will be brought over and added. It's V's diary, which states that the truth can be found on buses in the mail and other places. looks like this just got more real.

Viral Marketing/Hoax Theory I wanted to share a theory I've been toying with for awhile that's reinforced by V's journal. Over the weekend I looked at the searchforbrody blog and got to thinking about the RonnieTimeSquare.jpg that is posted as My Photo. And I recalled from Brody's blog and the main site that it was Ronnie's idea to make T-shirts and to have a street team. The idea for viral marketing is confirmed by what V wrote in her journal. Brody wrote in his 11/16 blog:
"From V' Notebook:
Quote:
Viral marketing is a good idea, but I think it's getting old the way it's been done.
We need a trailer cut that either scares the shit outta people or that they can't get outta their brain for days.
Cut the trailer to random blank dvds and mail boxes full to places that will give them away. Organize street teams? Unreliable at best. Still could work.
Brody won't like it so I'll just poke around and see if I can find anyone.
Tapes too.
~V~
This film has to be huge. I think the future hangs on it.
She knew me. I hate that stuff. If the film is good it will sell.
Still, it's her film and it's not the first time someone's mentioned "street teams".
What do you think? Do they sell mineral water and tennis shoes that way?"
It's not only that they want the film to succeed but also they need for it to succeed, but Brody is at odds with V's tactics. I've thought the accident was set up somehow and think both that and now
the "disappearance" of the filmmaker could well be their attempt to get national attention for their documentary and put SKGfilms on the map.
Remember the interview with Her Sin Is A Secret To Her when she is gushing about Brody, and Ronnie turns gleefully to the camera? I believe Ronnie or both of them enlisted Sin's help in the accident setup. Maybe they got her to make that threatening tape and told her it was for some other purpose like an audition for something else, and that's why her sin is a secret to her; she didn't know what they were using her for. We're told Brody has a memory problem as a result of the accident, but he seems to know what he's doing aside from his occasional seemingly drunken posts. Is the Jan 4th post about a misguided heart telling the truth someday about this? Is all of this an elaborate set-up to create national interest in the whereabouts of Brody and, thus, gain attention for their film? Is this plot of Ronnie's the reason is was too dangerous for him to meet Idta? What do you guys think?

Re page 6 of V's journal:Beleive it's "M'epave serez-vous?",meaning "Will you be the ruin of me?" Reckon that also fits,Hawk,and Props for the awesome translation. And THX,Think,for the completed p/p board.

On page 2 I think it says "Panneaux réclame," which translates literally to panels claims, but I think it actually means solar panel, but either way it doesn't seem to fit.

I'm intrigued by her sketch of the girl with the black balloon and found a song by The Goo Goo Dolls called "Black Balloon" that's about using a balloon to carry heroin or to tie off an arm to inject it. I think there may be a connection with Brody's clue about the deep being dark and cold to heroin use/withdrawal. I suspect his fascination with The Heroin Diaries has a personal meaning.

People use drugs as an escape all the time. Brody is more vulnerable than others.
I've personally listened to Black Balloon many many times and I can see how that would work with Brody.

on page 4 where it says "Sometimes how much we can read is dictated by us returning time and again" just makes me think we need to check this site over and over and see if there is anything new - also the other sites and brody's blog, etc. I know we are doing this and I hope some fresh eyes can shed some light on these ideas as well.

waiting for the new ones to show. Thing is, I doubt the news and rumors board thinks we exist still and posting about it there again may piss off the admins.

Good point Will, what I actually meant by "this site" was skgfilms.com. Not sure if that was clear. I am also wondering who the sketch on page 4 is of, next to the picture of coney island. Could that be Brody?

I was just looking at that as well. It doesn't seem to be the person on Jagt's blog or in the green chair at the HRC.

I could guess that it does look like Brody if I knew what he looked like.
Something learned from TV: Girls tend to doodle about the guys they like, dunno if it's true but I threw it out there anyway.
