Spy Footage of Military Activity on 1-18-08!
Hey folks... Harry here... Just got back from the Louisville Zoo, where Yoko got to ride a giraffe, or something like that. But I get back and well, what else would I be getting, but more 1-18-08 spy reports, this time with video. Here you go - not much there, but it shows... MILITARY involvement... again, not very new, but you guys seem to be gobbling every bit up. BTW - check out the YouTube reports on 1-18-08 / Cloverfied... this stuff is HILARIOUS - the conspiracies and the details being examined are making me laugh like crazy. Here ya go - thanks goes out to GREG
this is from 8/13/07 lenox and broadway the humvees were going down lenox past an open alley where there was some prop destruction, smoke, and military personell carriers, also a makeshift triage center, the camera and principal photography was being done in the alley while the humvees did multiple takes down the street.

uh, enthralling.

second one doesn't work already?

Bitches.

CLOVEREIFLD TB, BAYBEE!
-
Oh, Cloverfield! Right!
-
But that had one too many Slushos, I think. ;)
-
Don't get me wrong, i love me some JJ, but damn.. this is driving me nuts!!

Ok so here goes. This whole Cloverfield viral marketing campaign is a clever setup to make us all go "WTF". "WTF", is internet geek for "What The Fuck", and it's eerily close to "WTC", which means "World Trade Center". Both Cloverfield and World Trade Center involves attacks on New York City ("NYC"), the destruction of national landmarks and they're both tied specifically to special dates (1-18-08 and 9-11-01). Ok, now there are three letters between F and C (WTC and WTF), so that makes 3. There are five letters more in "world trade center" than there are in "what the fuck", so that means 5. 1-18-8=-25. 9-11-1=-3. -25-(-3)=-28. So we have 3+5-28=-20. -2+0=-2! The answer is that numerology sucks and anyone who believes in that crap needs a head exam.
-
a device is found.
-
Ethan Haas was right all along then.
-
Someone farted on the set of 1-18-08 today, and our spies captured the audio! What does it mean????
Seriously. -
NOW who's gonna clean up after yer mess?!
-
The only thing anyone care about right now is the name of the damn movie. When that fucker Abrams decides to grace us with such news, perhaps there'll something to talk about.
-
Nice that Yoko got to ride something else than you for a change, Harry.God, I hate this viral marketing shit. Wouldn't it be much better if we could bitch about facts?
-
Seriously.

you have stooped to Merrick territory. There is absolutely nothing in those videos that I couldn't see at a construction site. Jeesum crow, you call that news? Hell, I'll drive around town shooting vids of storm drains and you can link to those too.

I plugged in my USB stick, and Windows just reported that "A DEVICE IS FOUND"! Microsoft is in on it! I will be searching my system32 folder for "voltron.dll".

"Holy wowowzers, the license plate on that jeep relates to a specific chapter in some random arcane apocalyptic religious text/work of fiction I read in my comparitive religions class... and also a robot toy from my youth! HOLY SHITBALLS!!! The kabbalic mammograms of scientologies waning mindbrain is transfixed upon the date of 01-18-08! HOLY HOINKLES!!! Waa Way Wee Wah!!!"
Serously, though, I love it when people freak out about what amounts to advertisements for a movie 5 months or so away. Have at it, obsessives! Fill those empty hours! Theres go to be some outrageously significant find in these short clips that will totally blow you... away. -
or not. Whatever. This buzz can't keep up forever.

No wait, that's my fridge acting up again... False alarm...

I've lost my patience

cut out all this bullshit "truck backing up" footage!!! JJ's being so elusive that we can't really trust him to give us anything substantial, EVERYBODY'S already sick of looking at those fucking pictures on that damn website ( holy god! two of them flip over!!!!) and now we got some "anything will do" bullshit spycam garbage of a goddamn truck backing up?! Fuck you, dude. Look, when all this happened most cats were excited cuz maybe we were gonna get to see something cool and different, but there is such a thing as too much secrecy. Its not even fun to try and dig up clues anymore cuz either they're way too obscure, too few, or not there at all....you see Harry and JJ, this is what it sounds like when a viral campaign begins to backfire. At least try to make it fun and all mysterious again, because so far all you seem to be doing is exasperating people....like me....fuck.....
-
I think it looks like a really cool movie. I bet it'll be more fun than THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, which appears to be the main inspiration here. Well, that and Godzilla or Voltron, of course.
-
has to stop. Better to start a campaign hyping the monster months before the movie. But when it turns out that 1)you never see the monster in the flick, and 2)the monster turns out to be a giant cheese-eating rat, people are gonna kick this movie in the balls.
-
despite my rant I do hope you're right, LaserPants, but it can get to be a little too much...the movie proper is still about 5 months away so i'm willing to give this thing a chance, but they've gotta come a little more correct with the info and stuff. they could at the least tell us the name of the movie and have that be a clue as to the true nature of what we'll be seeing onscreen. i doubt JJ will be doing that anytime soon if at all...
-
And laugh as the beast rolls into a quivering whimpering puddle.

the inside of an empty dvd case....
-
I saw the teaser trailer it looked cool. I'll see it when it comes out. I'm staying away from all the online junk just so I don't get too pumped like I did for SOAP.
-
'Cause it's really "Star Trek 10 1/2: Revival of a Franchise" (Guest-starring Voltron! And that Alias chick kicking some balls!)
-
Harry is the ASS THAT FOUNDed AICN. From the original post. Its all part of the Guerilla marketing campaign.
-
But it's not working
-
That was a waste of time. Can I have have some content next time?

So I sent Harry and company a link to the Get Smart
by allpowerfulwizardofoz
trailer and it's still not posted as news on this site yet. Not sure why. Usually we see one of those "in glorious quicktime" type posts. Nada nothing. Guess it's not news worthy for them so here it is.

but no one from this site contacted me. Oh well.
-
...is more entertaining than this movie could possibly be.
-
Kick this fucking movie in the nuts.

If you are like me and you thought the two vids that Harry posted are lame, then check out the link I have provided for something far more interesting. -
I saw the teaser in the theater and found it interesting but beyond that...I just don't care. What are the odds that whatever this film is about or whatever it's called that it will be forgotten in 2 years. I remember how they hid the new Godzilla from the public for months before the release. "What's he look like? This movie is gonna be awesome" etc....And who revisits the new Godzilla movie. Besides Harry....
-
But is that from the 1-18-08 set or not? :)
-
non story. Fuck Cloverfield!
-
If you add up the individual digits in 1-18-08, the sum is 18. Then add 1 to 8 and you get 9. 9 is how many lives a cat has. And it will take one big mofo of a cat to take down the Rat That Takes Manhattan.

Wonder what numerology somebody is going to cook up to explain the movie's secrets. ;)
-
... I'm still trying to figure out "This is from 8/13/07...". This HAS to be a real spy report because only someone from the future would have sent this back in time to Harry whilst he is in Louisville.

of course the army would get involved.... a giant fucking monster attacks new york.... show me something unexpected....

I'm predicting 2000 *threads* on Cloverfield/Slusho/Not a Giant Woman Movie between now and 1/18/08.

The waves gently lapped the sides of the small boat, rocking it slightly back and forth. Inside
the raft, lay an unconcious man, slowly beginning to stir. A larger wave broke against the boat, sending a splash of freezing cold water at the man, abruptly waking him up. The frightened man, looked around frantically. "Where am I" he screamed to the sky.
The last thing the man remembered was hiking in the mountains, and he was definately not near any
mountains at the moment. Looking out at the water, it was apparent he was in some sort of sea or
possibly an ocean, as no land was visible in any direction, although, off in the distance, he could make out another oject adrift in the vast body of water. The man decided to take inventory, and discovered a small key on the floor of the boat, and a small leak.
The man shivered and realized he could be in for a problem, he was soaked, and it seemed to be getting darker, which meant he would only be getting colder. With the boat slowly sinking, the man decided his only course of action was to begin paddling to whatever was floating in the distance, hoping that whatever he discovered would be less likely to sink. As he neared the object, he was able to make out what it was, to his surprise, it was a raft, featureless save for the fact that in the center of the raft, was a door, a door that didn't seem to be attached to anything.
It began to rain, and not a light rain, but a heavy rain, and with it the wind picked up, and the waves
became violent. And as the sinking of the boat became eminent, another thing became clear, that the
waves were actually bringing him closer to the raft with the strange door. The man made sure to grab the
key, and jumped into the water, swimming the rest of the way there. Pulling himself onto the raft, he did the one thing anyone would do in his situation, he tried to open the door. It was locked of course. "The Key" he shouted to himself. The man put the key in the lock, and turned it, feeling it click, the man actually smiled. "Are you my lucky key" he said to the key, as he pulled it out, grasped it in his hands. "Well why not" he said to the key again, and turned the door opening it to reveal...... -
Stop wasting my fucking time.
-
It's already up on IMDB.
-
better make an ugly woman your wife
-
There are some rumors that the Rat IS Barry Bonds, but that of course depends on your perspective.
-
Maybe that head of Lady Liberty went a-flying because Bonds mistook her for a tee-ball tee. Or maybe the head was torn off by George W. Bush? He wants to rip the head off Liberty and take a shit down Her throat. (Oh wait, he's already done that!)
-
Just wait, this will turn out to be a live action adaptation of the Rampage video games.. and it will suck ass..
-
It's the truck! it transforms into Voltron Frenzy Denis. FUCK CLOVERFIELD.
-
Alright. I'm ALL for a "scoop". But come ON Harry.
You could have easily posted video of your wedding, and it would have told us more about this stupid movie.
Oh! 3 seconds of a truck backing up! Holy TEASER Batman!
Listen. I'm all for being a geek about cinema...but posts like this should be left with the rest of your junk mail...in the TRASH.
Stop wasting our time! When you post crap like this, I just want William Shatner to come in and exclaim, "GET A LIFE!"
Very lame.
And yet...we are talking about this stupid movie now...so I guess it achieved its purpose.
Argh! -
it fell past the ankle-biters and when the crumb-snatchers saw it, they went "meh".
I get the relevance of army/HUMVEE I guess...I GUESS. -
I'm not even going to check your Cloverfield "news" anymore. This is Bullshit. Why not just write your headline as: "STILL DON'T KNOW DICK ABOUT CLOVERFIELD, SO DON"T WASTE YOUR TIME READING THIS POST."
-
Those videos are so harry as to not even warrant posting this article. I sure hope Cloverfield isn't harry. I'm sick of all this harry hype.
-
not homosexual.
Just so you know. -
Just saying...
-
Anyone else beginning to feel that by early fall the interest for this thing will drop off a cliff, or that all those who are saying that is such a great Net-driven viral campaign that its guaranteed to make it a blockbuster are going to be crying in the end?Honestly, I don't need to know EVERY little detail, but I'm already rapidly burning out on this thing. I have better things to do with my time then to go to a web site and try to decipher date numbers or see how 2 photos glue together or whatever the fuck that lame ass shit is about.Seriously, by the time this comes out, I'm thinking we're going to end up with another SNAKES...oops, I meant SLUSHOS ON A PLANE, where everyone thought it was going to be this huge geek hit, and instead it just limps along into its opening weekend with even the geeks saying "Eh, it was only a modest budget thing anyway and I was already tired by it. I'll just catch it on DVD."
-
Pennsy, I'm with you. Fuck this utter egotistical waste of space who's going break Hank Aaron's achievement by having cheated his way into the record books...

Babe Ruth racked up his tally during the time when baseball did not allow all comers to play the game. By banning players of color, baseball guaranteed that a tubby hard-partying Ruth could tear up the league. Ruth never played against all the best of his era.

This news made my day! FUCK YEAH

Once again the Cloverfield Project has owned.

I'm surprised and happy people are "getting it" now.
Congrats. Now look close and hard, listen to the softest, and don't spill that Slusho.

On a field trip to the Stature of Liberty, Bonds, feeling a little small, takes an overdose of 'roids. Suddenly, while surveying the doomed city from inside the statues head, Bonds' 'roid-pumped noggin suddenly swells to a HUGE size, blowing the head off, sending it sailing towards Times Square. Using his newfound GIANT HEAD POWERS, Bonds pursues the head to Times Square causing many explosions and makeing trust-fund kids run around and shoot viral videos of each other being scarred like that BLAIR WITCH PROJECT movie. As Bonds tries to pick up Lady Liberty's decapitated head, his swollen fingers and noggin get in the way, making it once again sail into the air, crashing somewhere more uptown, causing the now nysterical trust-fund kids to run and scream and shoot more viral video for obsessives to obsess about for months until their inevitable dissapointment on opening day when it turns out all their sluething was really nothing more than tracking down commercials for a movie they wound up not even liking all that much. Thoughts of hopelessness and a fleeting contemplation of suicide (soon dismissed as being a bit overboard) overwhelm the fanbots... until thenext viral marketing scam begins two weeks later. Much celebration ensues in smelly bedrooms and basements around the globe.

Then we will be rid of this crap. American monster movies suck. Just look at Godzilla 98 and Gigli. The last good monster movie was The Relic.
-
This is actually a new Al Gore movie.
-
I liked The Relic, too. When you say "monster" does that only include big wet alien things or all the other, human-like creatures such as vampires, werewolves, etc? If the former, I think my pick would be Pitch Black.
-
how are you? long time no hear from. maybe we could watch the relic together in the pitch black darkness. ha haaaaaa. have you bought any new magic cards lately? ha haaaaaaaa....
-
i just can't help it. i know you don't like me. i am just pulling your leg. i needed a laugh. am i one of those guys that you hate? i'm an overwheight , unemployed, fast food eating 50 year old right? you have me pegged sweetheart. ha haaaaaaa.....

That's the real title of Cloverfield!
-
How could I possibly hate such a sweet, genuine, obviously intelligent hottie such as yourself (meowwww)? No seriously, to paraphrase a line from the Magnificent Seven, I don't have any enemies.....alive.....

Anyone else out there just waiting for issue 5, when either not-dead Betty Ross or The Sentry show up to end this? Bet it'll be pretty anti-climatic

-
Heh.
-
Because we'll "eat it up?" ZOMG a fucking jeep backing up for 7 seconds, pardon me while I go beat off to it.

Hey - new poster and all so I'm not sure if the clues on the back sides of the photographs have been exposed yet, but two of the photos on 1-18-08.com have the following written on the back (which menas mroe in the future I suppose) >>
Robbie,
Here, use this photo to send a message of my hotness far and wide!!! I'm gonna miss the hell out of ya!!
Love, Jamie

Don't forget who takes care of you!
Love J
-
you actually think that there is a possibility that you're the first to discover the flipping of the photos on 1-18-08.You're gonna fit right in here.
-
Has anyone else noticed that you can turn the pictures over on the 1-18-08.com website? There a messages on the back of them.
-
there's a new pic up on the official website. an asian fellow screaming holding a tray of food, but what's interesting is what's on the back of the card. the message is in what i assume is Japanese so get to translating geeks!
