So sorry for him. Alas, this world is full of semi-adult persons, who doesn't know how to communicate.

Children, behaaaaaave!

Bad Robot and J.J. Abrams...

Found this...

"Today, XPRIZE and Google announce a new digital documentary series from Academy Award-nominated director Orlando von Einsiedel, Executive Producer J.J. Abrams, Bad Robot, and Epic Digital, premiering March 15 on Google Play and March 17 on YouTube."

"In this 9-part series, 'Moon Shot' goes behind the scenes with the 16 teams competing in the $30 million Google Lunar XPRIZE. Launched in 2007, our biggest prize to date challenges teams to design and build a rover, land it on the surface of the moon, drive it 500 meters across the lunar landscape, and send HD video and imagery back to Earth by the end of 2017."

More info at the official site...

Sooooo.... The thing I immediately noticed about that project is - the logo? It's in Bold Futura.

You can tell because it looks like a Wes Anderson movie title card.

Soundtrack listing is out and there are some HUGE nods to the ARG in the titles!

It may be a little spoilery, so be forewarned.

This site is reputable, it's obscure, but it's the one that broke that Bear McCreary was composing.

http://filmmusicreporter.com/2016/03/04/10-cloverfield-lane-soundtrack-details/

EDIT: If nothing else, media stuff hitting peak saturation.

Pretty neat NYT article, with some interesting tidbits. If you read no other article, read this one:

http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/03/06/movies/10-cloverfield-lane-comes-out-of-nowhere.html?_r=0

Love JJ's comment about doing an A version of a B movie. Fit's in with Dan's "Elevated popcorn movie" comment, and draws a line back to the Cannibal Airlines/Troma Easter Egg.

Here is the track list from that site. Thanks,
Gimlet!

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
1. Michelle
2. The Concrete Cell
3. Howard
4. A Bright Red Flash
5. At the Door
6. Two Stories
7. Message from Megan
8. Hazmat Suit
9. A Happy Family
10. The Burn
11. Up Above
12. Valencia
13. The New Michelle
14. 10 Cloverfield Lane

So many nods to the ARG events. I love it! Also Valencia, lol. Didn't the movie also get score early on in the ARG. Before the first drop? That makes it sound like the composer was well aware Okie-dokie! What was coming. Cool. Smile


And am I the only one reading the track list and imagining the story line? It seems pretty clear to me, though I bet we all have different ideas.

Also, that second link Gimlet. Oh man, I'm getting the feeling more and more that there won't be a monster in this movie, and that it may even be a different universe, aka the Twilight Zone theory proposed ages back. While I sincerely think that would be a good series, it's not what I want at all. I want a literal giant monster. I hope that there is one.[/spoiler]

I've found a higher resolution version of the IMAX poster (the Slashfilm version is a little pixelated).

I added it as an attachment, but if it's too big or whatever, I uploaded it to Imgur as well: http://i.imgur.com/0bTZ093.jpg


I know I am old but this looks like a remake of Zork!

Ha! I knew that scene from the poster looked familiar!

"You are standing in an open field west of a white house with a boarded front door.
There is a small mailbox here."

>open mailbox
Opening the small mailbox reveals a tiny scared woman holding a broken bottle of Swamp Pop. In the distance, you hear a strange roar."

It's linked in the article, but here it is for easy access. You can preview the soundtrack on Amazon right now.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CJFMAJW?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B01CJFMAJW&linkCode=as2&linkId=BMOGOSRTN2Y42AAK&redirect=true&ref_=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl&tag=filmusrep-20

Anyone else think that maybe the monster will be named Valencia? I haven't read that spec script, so I don't know if there is something else with that name instead. Razz

LOL, that would be very meta. Sadly, that Zork quote is not up on my site anymore since I "remodeled" it for the new movie.

Non spoiler review from Patton Oswalt

Wow. Just saw 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE. Non-stop tension, insane-o ending, and a testament to the power of single malt scotch. GO SEE IT.

Thanks for the links, gimlet...read the NYT article, and this caught my eye...

"Their brand (Bad Robot) is about keeping precious what people are going to experience and not trying to ruin it for anyone', Trachtenberg said."

And that's, most likely, why our ARG suddenly 'went dark'...BR might have been trying to repair the hacky-sac chaos that whole 'discord-reddit' drama caused throughout our communities. Now we have an update on the FaPT site...and we can continue on with that ARG-y goodness.

Who is Patton Oswalt? He has a ton of followers, though. Whoa.

I am very excited for the insane-o ending!!!
