Re: J.J. Abrams new project - codenamed Cloverfield / 1-18-08

Right, this is a freeze-frame of what appears to be the big-ass monster thing:



This is a 5 second video loop of it moving to give you a better idea of it's size. It's hosted on Photobucket and I can't seem to save it properly, so here is a link while it's still there.

Now for a picture that was mentioned already in this thread of what seems to be a person (perhaps the girl in the images I attached above) behind held by two people in biohazard suits, this one shows the expansion:



Tentacles coming out of her as she expands, or perhaps just cabling behind her?

Now for some fan-art of interpretations of the big-ass monster thus far:





Bonus shot of Hiro Nakamura and his old man having a drink of Slusho!



UBER-bonus shot from last night's US showing of Heroes with Slusho being drunk on the air!



That's about all I've found so far tonight.

Well, it definitely seems as if it'll be some sort of whale/squid-like monster anyway... Don't know if this has been mentioned already, but there's a site linked to this called Tagruato which talks about deep-sea drilling and some sort of genetic research and marine biotechnology. Looks interesting.

Trailer's up.
http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramo...eld/large.html

Appears to be a "godzilla" type movie.

It's worse man, the sad bastards who came up with those sketches did it before the trailer was even released I think.

There isn't much else coming out ARG-wise just now, despite me wasting an hour this morning browsing through all the websites already listed as active in it.

Re: J.J. Abrams new project - codenamed Cloverfield / 1-18-08

Two guys who ordered Slusho t-shirts received two parts of a letter.

This is it put together (click for bigger):



Translation:

Quote:
LEVEL 1 EMPLOYEE SECURITY


THE ISSUE BEING IN COMMUNICATION OUTSIDE THE SITE.

2007 November 24th


DUE TO THE RECENT INCIDENT WICH HAS OCCURED, IT HAS BECOME NECESSARY TO FOWARD ALL COMMUNICATIONS OUTSIDE OF THE FACILITY THROUGH THE CENTRAL COMMUNICATION CENTER. OUT GOING MESSAGES WILL NOT BE SENT UNTIL GOING THROUGH A LEVEL 1 SECURITY CHECK.


ANY EMPLOYEE WORKING OVERTIME WILL BE APPOINTED A SPECIFIC AREA FOR LIVING QUARTERS.


FAILURE TO REPORT ANY SUSPICIOUS ACTS TO THE CHUAI MANAGEMENT WILL BE IN DIRECT VIOLATIONS OF COMPANY POLICY AND WILL DEALT WITH ACCORDINGLY WITHOUT EXCEPTION.
Back of the letter parts with scribbled notes (again, click for bigger):



Interesting.

New messages began appearing in email boxes, with one of the following images attached - sonar_1.jpg and sonar_2.jpg. There is no note or message attached.

It looks like some kind or sonar image, but of what? Was this the first detection by Tagruato of the monster?
Here are the images together in an animated gif.



Oh, and commercials have started.
