Mine finished after about 5 hrs yesterday and I went to work last night..This morning It started over at line 4.. its at line 6 now..

Seems to be no memory or signal of completion activated yet.. so it wants to reload again even if you have completed it already.

I can't imagine the movie will be from the Cloverfield-type home recording view point.

With Cloverfield, this was ok, because Hud was using a modern HD camera. Going by the title of the film and the time period (1970s)...I would assume that the people filming in the movie will be using a Super 8.

Super 8mm film has nowhere near the quality of today's movies, and I doubt they would be willing to risk releasing an entire movie filmed with Super 8mm.

Just thinking out loud.

To me it looks like (spoilered so you can decide for yourself)
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ET emerging from the toppled train. There's an homage to Spielberg.


You're fully right about homage! JJ Abrams told about it:
http://nymag.com/daily/entertainment/2010/04/vulture_exclusive_jj_abrams_ne.html

Quote:
Our sources tell us that Abrams is in discussions with Spielberg, and insist the DreamWorks co-founder will be involved in some capacity, whether as an executive producer or at least as an adviser, since "J.J. wants to make sure Steven is properly paid homage to. This is really an interpretation of some of Spielberg's earlier films, but done in a personal way."

Folks - please use SMALLER screen caps or just provide ATTACHMENTS to avoid the stretching of the thread with overly large images.

Thank you!


Carry on.

Alright. I analyzed the sound through a program and got some interesting stuff. Kinda.


14sec~ : Some guy says (southern accent), "I put it on there twice."

22sec~ : Military com speak...hard to understand.

31sec~ : More com talk, I can only understand the end of it, "Target in tact, [something] on schedule."

44sec~ : More com chatter. Easier to understand, "Copy [something, I assume he's responding to the train's previous message], expect [EXPLOSION]

58sec~ : Honestly sounds like a dinosaur scream. Could be noise from the train, or maybe another homage to Spielberg's works.


And...that's all I could get. Seems like nothing, just com chatter to and from the train. I wish I had a better program to analyze the sound with, but alas.

If anyone wants to analyze the sound themselves (or has a better program), let me know. I'll send you the sound file.

Interesting. I've been out for a few hours and left the computer on to carry on with the countdown. When I return and wake the monitor up I'm now on line 6 and line 5 says Sectors loaded. This is strange as Darth Gram Gram's line 5 say Previously accessed.

What have other people got?

Mine is also on line 6 , but the other five lines say "previously accessed", none are saying "sectors loaded" anymore. Last night before i went to bed, it was at line 4, line 3 said "sectors loaded" and the rest said " previously accessed"

Ok I had the window open when the line changed. since then ive opened a new tab and that one displays previously accessed on line 5. I'm wondering if its a case of if its open it will say Sectors loaded.

Has anybody kept a screen open since the very beginning? If so what does it say?

Myself I keep shutting the computer off but now it stays on.

EDIT:

D'oh! I literally just closed the tab I had open, now I got to wait for the next line change.

So I put this up on super8news before I found this site which seems to have a ton more people...So I don't know much about computers, and know even less about computer programing, but a couple of things are catching my atention and I don't know if they are just computer stuff or JJ stuff. The first is NOSCOPE. It comes up a couple times on the screen as SET TT: NOSCOPE. Also if you hit shift + tab to scroll through the icons at the bottom if you go too far 3 yellow boxes show up on the green text screen. Last The date Feb 5th 1977 shows up when the program is first loading. Wikipedia says a swedish physicist that came up with a theory of extra dimensions died on that day. Yep so that's what I got so far. A bunch of...well not sure. Anyone make anything of that stuff?

Ok i did the tab thing myself and found that those 3 yellow boxes are the close, print and cancel buttons for the Print window.
