WTF WEBSITES
» ‎ 01-18-08
To add onto the post that esop wrote, I do not want anymore posts about websites that may or may not be related. It's just getting really annoying to have people come here (I'm sorry to use you as an example, I swear!) and post about websites that have obviously been created to just partake in fun, get extra traffic, or fuck around with you.

If you genuinely feel that you have found a possible IG (in game) website, I want you to do the following:
1. Google the domain name! - The first thing you need to do is google the domain name, and see what results come up. Google's bots usually start indexing the moment they're able to get onto the site, so chances are something can came up. Check out the cache version to see what it might've been previously, if it was changed at all. You'll also find out what other sites have been blogging about it. Chances are if it's got anything obvious in the (slusho, 1-18-08) domain name, someone has already written about it and from there you can read how it's a fake/unrelated/OOG (out of game) website.
2. Check the domain on whois(.domaintools.com) - Sorry but this isn't really that important, like most people are being lead to. This is just a tool that I recommend to use to find out the site's registration date. I don't care if it's hosted on GoDaddy (because some other sites are.) This is not anything official. It's merely used to debunk it faster than normal, especially if it's created after July 1st, 2007.
3. Check the domain on archive.org - If the domain in question has been created for over a few months now (and few being 4 or more) then check out the website's previous content at archive.org. If the site does not allow robots, there won't be anything there, but there is a possibility that an archive may be available. Was it originally a website for selling shoes, or did it have nothing on it until 1-18-08 made it's way to the public? This is an easy way to tell what this domain may have been, before you started obsessing over zomgclues.
4. Post about it: If you truly feel that this site is possible after having checked everything above, then yes, you can blog about it here. However, your entry will not remain up if it contains a link telling us to check it out because it may be related. You will need to tell us how you found it, what makes you think it's related, and anything else you want to ramble on about. This is just a failsafe method of ensuring your post isn't spamming the very website you may have created to mislead people.

Before you post "new" sites...

Please check this page to see if your site is already listed as fake or not:

[forums.unfiction.com]

It would make things much easier.

SPOILERS: Call sheet and footage of possible ending
» ‎ 1-18-08

Unfiction forums users nooneimportant77 got these pictures and videos from the set Monday night. Most of these are from the scene shot under the bridge in Central Park.

WARNING: Spoilers follow, possibly for the film's ending.

He was told by people on the set that he was infringing copyrights by taking these. I'm not a lawyer, but as this was being filmed in public, I'm fairly sure nooneimportant 77 owns the copyrights to these images and video, NOT Paramount. So tough noogies guys...if you didn't want these posted, you shouldn't have made this project so secretive.

Now, Paramount DOES own the rights to the call sheet posted by New York Magazine, so I can't post it here directly. However, I have no problem linking to the PDF. Apparently Paramount's legal team has sent C & D letters to /Film and Cloverfield Clues asking them to remove the call sheet. Which is amusing since Cloverfield Clues only linked to the NYMag article and didn't reproduce, display, or distribute it. I encourage anyone reading this to save the PDF as it's only a matter of time before they force NYMag to remove it. If any representatives from Paramount come across this site, save your energy, because I'm not posting anything here that isn't within my legal rights to do so and I will not be removing any of this.

Many are speculating that the call sheet is fake or a plant, and if it was, it would still be infringing on Paramount's copyrights, so their C & D letters don't confirm it to be legit. However, having been on the set myself, I can confirm most of the shooting locations as well as the vehicles and art department info listed on the sheet and nooneimportant77's videos confirm some the scene descriptions listed, so is most likely legit, despite speculation that it's a plant by National Lampoon. That doesn't mean they couldn't have put false or misleading information on it, but it's probably not a fake call sheet. Assuming there wasn't false information planted on the sheet, it was day 33 out of 33 days of shooting, and the shooting has wrapped, though I would like to point out that this could just mean production has wrapped on "Cheese" in New York, so this doesn't mean they aren't continuing to film under a different production title or in a different location.

WARNING: Spoilers follow, possibly for the film's ending.

All of this does possibly give away major plot points. From the party, the group runs north until they reach Central Park, where the film apparently ends. The absence of other characters in these scenes indicates that they most likely died by about two-thirds into the film. Since we already know the film supposedly starts with a cleanup crew discovering the tape, it's very likely that everyone dies. It looks like Rob and Beth are the last to die, under the bridge, so the videos above show their death scene.

I'm Creeped Out.
» ‎ 01-18-08

I'm sorry if I'm blowing this up to be more than it is, but I'm tired and paranoid and it's 4:30 in the morning. I was just looking for new websites because Abrams is capable of more than any human could imagine, and when I went to [1182008.com], it redirects you to [www.beschutzen.com], a black page with nothing but the words "The Traveler is coming..." Again, I may be paranoid, but it gave me the chills. It's probably nothing, though.

EDIT: I was just seeing what I could do to get more out of it, and if you type in [1182008.com], it says "be patient the time will come soon enough..."

I think I just shit my pants.

More set photos
» ‎ 1-18-08

Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get too many photos from the set (and none during the actual filming) as the P.A.'s wouldn't let us anywhere near it. I have a feeling that's because of nooneimportant77 getting video of the supposed ending filmed earlier that night. Apparently they told him he was infringing their copyrights and whatnot. Which is bullshit, since they were filming in public. Really, if they weren't trying to be so secretive about this thing, nobody would care. It was still fun checking out the set though. We saw where they were filming under the bridge in Central Park, but we didn't get there until they'd already wrapped and were cleaning up. We were able to check out the set on Central Park South as they were setting up there and throwing the fake rubble around, but they kept moving us farther and farther away from the set before they started shooting until we were so far away we could barely see a thing (and definitely couldn't get any pictures). After they wrapped on that street and moved to shoot on 6th Avenue, I was able to get shots where they had just been filming (the rubble and cars covered in dust below). Of course, I filled my bag with fake bricks, concrete, and asphault...I'm debating whether or not I should sell some of it on eBay. We signed our names in the dust on the cars (so no, that won't be seen in the film unfortunately). We tried to watch them filming on 6th Ave (Rob and I believe Jason and Lily were there), but again we were told we had to leave (and one of the PA's had the nerve to follow us a few blocks to make sure we left...we named him Captain Douchebag). Without further ado, here are my photos.

After we started writing things on the cars, we noticed someone had already beaten us to it. It's possible these people worked on the set, but they could have just been random passersby.

I did get shots of the license plates, but I'm not going to post them since they appear to be actual registered NY plates (the cars had registrations in the windows) and I'm sure they're completely irrelevant. I'll make another post shortly with nooneimportant77's images/video and the call sheet floating around as they contain spoilers.

Also, it appears shooting has wrapped, at least in New York, but I did see signs nearby for another film going by the title "The Ride" also filming this week. It could be unrelated, but they were VERY close to the Cheese shoots, so it's possible they're just continuing under another fake title. I haven't been able to find any info either way.
