There isn't a lot of love on Twitter for the Super 8 trailer being promoted as a trending topic because of today's Earthquake news.

The Earthquake is a horrible thing to happen to all concerned, and my thoughts and prayers are with anyone affected.


same here man. Lord be with them.

In the 41 clip I hear the man say "...exposing the craft to a barrage of..." then in 61 and 62 I hear "...these cubes. Even more surprising were their biological attributes. Most remarkably the-..." hmmmm.

Is there any possible way that someone with the equipment to do so, could skim back to the beginning of the three clips, where the countdown begins. There is a quick slide of writing, like from the original Super 8 trailer. Can anyone make that out?

ic could imagine, that this cube is the "E.T.'s flower" of this movie. So the source of the strength of the "alien" or an indicator of his vital-signs. hope you know what i mean :d

And is it Dr. Leyda Cupe testing it?

So it appears that "these cubes" (meaning several) seem to be connected in some way to the vitas relic (hopefully) I'm curious as to how these clips will come together in the future.

So if we theorize that this cube is a life-source for this alien, that makes some sense, in a way, because of what the scientist said: "biological attributes."

Okay, so recap. The new trailer shows Josh Minker's father, covered in blood, (whom I assume probably came in contact with the "creature") pointing a gun and telling the kids to "go." The father questions the colonel about 9 people missing. He also mentions that all the pet dogs from Lillian have fled the town, and have been found in other states or cities, whichever (because he recieved calls that weren't local, notified that the dogs had been found). We see the boy and the girl who have apparently come across either one of the "cubes" or piece of artifact, or shard, experience some telekinetic whiplash as the piece flies through the wall and into the night sky. The creature is indeed hostile, hence the 9 missing persons, and it doesn't like dogs. But somehow it is connected with the children because they feel the need to "find" it. Near the end of the trailer, there are some Super 8 slides that need to be dissected. Now, as for the clips located on the new website posted, "41, 61, and 62," There are some particular writings that slide by before the countdown of the clip too quickly for me to make out (so i hope someone with equipment can solve that issue) but what i did make out was what the narrator was saying. "...exposing the craft to a barrage of..." and "...these cubes. Even more surprising were their biological attributes. Most remarkably the-..." As far as I've seen. No new chat, printouts, or pictures on Sties. No new news on Rocketpoppeteers.com......just waiting for the next piece of information.

How about the RP site is updated in the next few days so we can log in and go on some sort of mission or series of missions.

When we have finished a mission we get a new snippet of the video ?

I tried to have a look at the slides / leader at the start of the clips and I can't see anything particularly interesting so far.

Seems to be a lot of text written on the films on the editing room videos...

Who says the cubes aren't the life form itself?

Reminds me of Trillions by Nicholas Fisk, book I read when I was tiny.

Is there anything significant in the fact that you can rotate the hooks with the film strips on and from the first strip you get two then rotate again you get the same two, but on different position hooks.

Edit - Here is what I mean -

What I can gather, the message is something like 1912 SUB OBJ INCD TRVW ... K. IA but I've not seen the whole thing... trying vainly to try to extract the actual SWF to analyze directly.
