My friend swears it's Godzilla. Rumors are rampant on the internets from a new Godzilla to a LOST! tie in. The website: http://www.ethanhaaswasright.com/ is very bizarre. There is a star on the left that launches my email every time I click it. The URL is http://[mail info I removed]/?view=cm&fs=1&to=van%40ethanhaaswasright.com&su=I' m%20one%20of%20you...%20help%20me!

I sent an email to van@ethanhaaswasright.com (the email address provided) that said "Who Are You" and this was the reply:

It seems The Mezin are connected to every aspect of humanity, from culture and religion to our most advanced technology

I have to be more careful contacting all of you. When I began I thought I could safely speak about his writings and perhaps save us all...

but now it seems I will have to find a more subtle way to share his visions.

If this is the first message you have received from me do not give up hope! There are others that have gone before you, the way has been found, you only need to search and you will find the answers you seek. We are getting stronger, our voices will be heard!

I have more of Haas’s writings, once I find a secure way to transmit them I will leave you clues to find them.

The more I read the more I realize Haas was right………

I had that trailer, I shrugged and said "it's J.J. Abrams."

It's a a new J.J. Abrams movie. It is not Godzilla (no way that could get made without it being known) but apparently is a monster movie with the working title (but almost certainly not the release title) Cloverfield.

The entire thing is shot in that first person hand held camera perspective seen in the trailer.

At least according to a Jeffrey Wells source and he's generally reasonably solid on such things.

That counts me out. I'm not a fan of vomiting 1/3 of the way through movies (I'm still shocked I made it all the way through Blair Witch).

Alex · 07-10-2007, 09:16 AM

Yeah, I wondered about that. Blair Witch didn't cause me any problems but I know a lot of people did have motion sickness issues (like my mom). And the trailer is a lot more choppy than Blair Witch, but I have to assume (hope) it settles down a lot.

That was a nod to the first teaser trailer that came out last year where we only saw a shadow of a robot as it destroyed the Mars probe.

What was a nod? I understand the purpose of the scene but why use the real name for that mission but reassign it from the European Space Agency to NASA/JPL? Again, it is really, really, really minor but why go to the trouble of adding unnecessary words just to add the wrong ones. For those who do know it is jarring, as if in Star Trek IV they'd said the USS Enterprise was part of the British navy.

Sorry. I misunderstood the point you were making.
