And what coleman canteen picture ?
I though there was only the suitcase , the date , the Quasimodo doll and the debris or park ... 4 photos .. not 5 ..


Coleman canteen is meant to be the thing behind the suitcase. Smile

I have no idea if these pictures lead anywhere but I haven't been following this closely, is there any in-game significance to the missing dogs?

No not yet on the dog front ... The pictures arent that clear to start off with and you can make out its 4yrs old .. Black and white .. and the name DAVE .. could be the dogs or owners .. there is another word like Labyrinth or something like that ..

So, the items in the suitcase picture are all things you take on a road trip, or maybe a train trip. The trailer has the scene which looks like a train station stop blowing up... maybe it's a scene from the station before it blows up.

Good point, I thought it was just random objects but I see a man sitting down holding a black and white object now. His knee is above the viewfinder. Sorry if this was obvious or already pointed out Smile


Should make more sense once the other sections appear.

Yeah, that's right. For me, he is sitting and holdig a keyboard or something flat (perhaps some documents?). And is the dark roundish object in the right part of screen actually the cylinder which was mentioned by Josh?

I don't think we can see THE cylinder, there's the green camping jug thing and behind it maybe a black suitcase with silver & red lines.

Weren't Quasimodo and Moby Dick both unjustly hunted down and thought to be evil monsters based on their looks?

Maybe a clue to the premise of the film?

sorry

Sorry if I'm stating the obvious, but that's someone's butt on the left side of the picture.
And the way the boy is holding his hands, it may be a handheld video game from the time period (such as Mattel Electronic Football).

Moby Dick (the white whale) was not supposed to be precisely of a sentient, premeditated malicious intent, but was a killer. All who hunted it felt its wrath, and it had become legendary for attacking the hunting ships - surely after having been pursued and attacked by so many of them.

A big white skinned beast, becoming violent and killing on instinct. Sound familiar?

Quasimodo was deformed physically, and thus had an outwardly unappealing appearance. By appearance alone people feared and reviled him as evil. Most portrayals only suggest violence as accidental or a purely defensive response.

So our creature in Super 8 is not so much a monster as poorly understood and persecuted being trying to survive. Sounds about right.

Isn't that suitcase the same type we saw in Josh's pics?

If you flip this over it looks like a picture of Quasimoto. With the eyes and mouth.

This picture from the second set interests me the most because it's so hard to understand..

Is that a make-up bag on the ground in the bottom right? Fedora top right? I don't know.


could it be underwater ? the image has that look about it, almost like the picture was taken as something was rapidly descending through the water

Another thought - Part of Area 51 is shut down and stuff moved to Ohio. Perhaps the lab workers and others have to go to Ohio as well, and this is a scene with those workers and their families packed up and ready to travel to Ohio. Perhaps A. Minker is one of the people packed up getting ready to travel. --Maybe--
Of course this could be footage from the super 8 camera, so that wouldn't make sense then. Just speculating.

Coocat72-
I mentioned this in the post when I said I saw a man and a bag, but Slusho Addict said that elements of the picture had been adjusted.So it's not as distinct in the original shot. When I look at the original, the 'person' I saw just looks like the lens cracks. (But the image you put in your post does resemble Quasimodo.)

To mie it looks like the eyes and ear with either someone/something looking over his shoulder or in his mouth.

I'm still trying to decipher the white poster on the dog board.

To review, we have:
DODGI (?)
4 YRS
BLK & WHITE
LABRAYXX or LARSAYXX (Xs are unknown)
DAVE (?)

What do you think about that LARSAYXX line?


Every time I look at that poster, the image of the dog looks like Petey from the Little Rascals...


He was a pit bull, so no help on the LARSAYXX there if that is related to breed, but that ring around his eye just reminds me of the pooch in the poster...

Labrador
Dodge
