Epic movie? Looks like it! :shock:

i see. i saw. i conflicted.

it looks pretty epic. here's hoping it's not godzilla.

Don't worry it's not.

It's an original movie.

here is the Viral site for it.

This shit has way to much viral marketing. I'll post up ( or hibia ) some more of the viral sites later.

FUCKING EPIC MOVIE OF 2008 RIGHT HERE FOLKS

Way to make me do it, Deox.

Ok, well this has to be the best viral campain I have EVER seen for a movie. The websites that they set up are so legitmate, that unless you think about there being an underlying theme, it's just Engrish.

The line We are coming, We'll find you soon!! is just plain scary when you think of how that sounds. Under normal conditions, that would just sound like engrish.

Anywho, after discussing it in great length on IRC, I may as well put the Viral sites and other bits of information up.

http://www.1-18-08.com/ <- The first site to originate. It only had two pictures before, but now it has a few more. Try clicking on them, moving them around. You can flip the pictures too, and see what's written on the back.

http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramount/11808/ <- Offical trailer site. You should watch the main video in large format, and give it about 10 minutes to load. But make sure your headphones are plugged in and turned up before you hit play, eh.

http://www.slusho.jp/ <- The first Viral site I saw. Yes, it's damn random, but has subliminal messages splashed throughout the entire website. Like the We are coming one. Seriously scary if you think of the entire site with the hype behind it.

http://tagruato.jp/ <- The seccond offical Viral site I saw. It's an offical looking site. Just read the english, some of it sounds so seriously wrong. They have a phone number you can call, and a member of a fansite did, over Skype. What you hear in english is this: http://www.archive.org/download/TagruatoPhoneCall/tagruato_message_en_64kb.mp3 (TRANSCRIPT: Thank you for calling Tagruato. Due to high call volumes, your call has been transferred to an automated answering service. There are no updates at this time. After the tone, please leave a message, and one of our associates will find you as soon as possible.) Doesn't anyone else find the "find you as soon as possible" rather than "call you back/contact you" slightly... odd? The rest of the site is full of oddities like this. And yes, it only works in English. "Ensure your future. Invest in Tagruato." Ensure? Why, are you going to take it awa- OH SHI-

http://jamieandteddy.com/ <- Third Viral site I saw. Click on the picture of the teddy bears and enter in the password: jllovesth

http://www.youcantdrinkjustsix.com/ <- Slusho's catchphrase turned into a URL. Why does it lead you to this website? Is it related...? Who knows...

Well, that's about all I have to say on the matter. It looks like an epic campain, I'm hoping that the movie doesn't fall flat on its face, because the marketing is FUCKING AWESOME.

http://cloverfieldclues.blogspot.com/ <- Is a good place to read peoples opnions, and gets you really thinking about the movie and what might... happen...

Damn better job than I would have done Hibia. :mrgreen:


Seriously this movies back story is fucking disturbing

lol fan art of what it might be.

To bad that fan art looks like a Sin rip off.

:roll:

That's a damn near godly marketing campaign. Only problem I see, is that it seems to have taken off too late. Only 2 months until it airs, and this is the first I've heard of it. Anyways, I hope their marketer gets massive approval for that.

The marketing campaign has been around since Transformers. This is everything that has been found since then.

New site

Wow this looks like a very Intresting Movie to Watch. I'm intrested in learning whats up with all this Engrish; Is it done on Purpose? Overall on my own personal rating I would rate it a 9/10 just by watching the Intro.

Anyone else getting the crepy feeling of Cthulhu? But this movie looks damn good

J. J. Abrams conceived of a new monster after he and his son visited a toy store in Japan. He explained, "We saw all these Godzilla toys, and I thought, we need our own monster, and not King Kong, King Kong's adorable. I wanted something that was just insane and intense."


New monster :)

Here's a clip slowed down where you can see a part of the new monster, at first it just looks like tumbling rubble but if you look closely you can see a leg and some body.

You know, Deox thinks that it's a whale. I'm pretty clueless so far, and won't make any guesses. I'll wait for the movie, thx.

The tagruato site has been hacked and is now showing this image


Here is the Unedited version

Pssh, more like more Viral advertising. I think they just did this to further the damn hype emanating off this movie. Which is getting better and better.

Of course it's more Viral advertising. It's a storyline hack and a bad ass one at that.

Shit makes me think of Gendo.

Oh damn new site!
