Petunia Plasticine, the person who bought the domain names , regularly gets JJ related sites just before announcements are made.
Boldfutura, Bleepbleepbloopbloop and now this.
Not sure if in game or just someone in the know looking to profit.
Could be Cloverfield related.

There are a few rumors about that it's a remake of The Man Who Fell To Earth, also heard Stranger in a Strange Land as an option.

Looks amazing! But as for my opinion the only thing I can point to that had been said earlier is "A stranger in a strange land" but what do I know? Also was it ever said that it would be made in to a movie?
Oh how I wish it was Cloverfield related!
Also what about a new IP, maybe JJ's taking to high-end TV productions again?

Well, Bad Robot has three upcoming projects that aren't Star Wars, coming out between 2013 and 2014. A film called "Infinitely Polar Bear", which is a comedy of some kind that probably isn't related to this, and also two TV shows.
One show is called "Believe" is a sci fi action show about people with special powers (or something?), and the other is called "Almost Human" which is a cop show set in the future where cops are paired with robots. Possibly bad ones, I don't know.
Now, this could be for an unannounced project of course, but it could also be at least one of those two TV shows

I hear a whisper at 0:42. I'll spoiler what I think I hear, but listen closely for yourself before you check this spoiler...
