 		Possible Harry Potter ARG
I ran across an interesting poster at the movies this weekend, and made note of the URL to check out when I got home. What I found was this: http://www.azkaban.com
Obviously related to the upcoming Harry Potter movie.

If you enter something and submit it or click on "Past Sightings" you'll see a lot of entries. The first thing that occured to me was that all the entries are spelled correctly and are generally coherent. These entries are obviously NOT being submitted by the public. Two recurring themes I found in the entries are dogs and trains.

So, is this an entry into some type of game, or just some kind of inexplicable promotional material for the movie? I thought some of you might want to look into it.

PS I found the scrolling on the page slow, if you are a fast reader you might want to view source and read it there.

 		The "Dog Theme" is referring to Sirius Black.
The "Train Theme" refers to the mode of transportation to and from Hogwarts.

As far as the postings go, I didn't take time to look into the various "non-english" versions, but everything else seem fairly bland.

My guess: not an ARG.

...but then again, it's been a while. I could be rusty! Wink
