Untitled J.J. Abrams movie.

[Eohmer]

I noticed that the Transformers thread was being derailed by this other movie the trailer is out for, so I thought I'd make it it's own thread.

Anyway... I found this on one of my favorite movie news websites.

JJ Abrams drops Harry a Line on all this 1-18-08 stuff!


Hey folks, Harry here... There's conspiracy theories abounding regarding JJ's little flick to juice us up for his badass STAR TREK recreation. So JJ Abrams wrote me to give us all a clue, cuz we're at square one of this mystery! But note... the game sites apparently have nothing to do with JJ. And also... he seems to be stating that you guys have yet to find all the sites he's put up... and yes, you'll have to find them. The man is laughing at you, me and all of those hiding in the shadows. SO... find em if you can... let us know here at AICN... seems we have a scavanger hunt, ain't it cool?

"Dear Sir,
Thanks for your support of our little movie. I can't wait to talk to you more about it -- of course, knowing you, by the time we talk you'll know more than I will.
Regarding the online stuff you posted: yeah, we're doing some fun stuff on the web. But, obviously, if the movie doesn't kick some massive ASS, who gives a rat's about what's online? So as you can imagine, we're focusing mostly on THAT. For what it's worth, the only site of ours that people have even FOUND is the 1-18-08.com site. The others (like the Ethan Haas sites) have nothing to do with us.
Stay cool the rest of the summer -- and thanks per usual for AICN!
JJ"

Apparently, http://www.1-18-08.com/ is the site to go to for now.
It only has 2 pictures on there, but the cool thing is you can click and drag them anywhere around the page. I can't tell what's the purpose for that.
Update: After moving them around, I stopped, and I see they are slowly moving by themselves now. Weird.

Probably completely insignificant, but it gets people to spend more time at their site, which in turn creates more hype.

I thought it was called Cloverfield?

Murphie, your new avatar looks like an angry chef.

Also, he's a cannibal chef and he's about to eat me.

Okay, I believe I've found a clue. Along with the date ( 1-18-08 ), we see a time of 12:36 A.M on one of the pictures. I did a google search for 12:36 ( with the idea of a biblical verse ) and here's what it came up with. "I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak..." Matthew 12:36 This is kinda fun. I'll try to get some more"

Re: Untitled J.J. Abrams movie.

I can remember in the movie theater after we watched it, everyone was like "Is this a new Godzilla movie?". One can only dream.
The whole "its a lion, its alive" stuff; The reason I think the guys says lion is from the roar and a woman asks "What is it?" before he answers.
"What is it?" "Its alive, its huge!" Ok its alive, but you never answered my question.
Edit:
Just found out that it truly is a lion. Here is a picture of it.
Its the new

Thundercats

movie.

Jesus Christ!

The whole "its a lion, its alive" stuff;

EDIT: actually on second thought, this makes me think about Microsoft Surface.

I also just found on Wikipedia that "Filming is currently taking place at the Santa Anita mall in Arcadia, California."

I live very close to there. I should go check it out and see what I find.

Wow, I checked your location, I never realized how many FFXIO members live in LA. Makes me wish I had come to visit you all during fanfest or something.
