Godzilla vs Cthulhu

 

[zhulok]

Im not saying it is something for sure because when i first saw the picture it looked like her hair to me but now every time i look at it i see that damn face, maybe im going mad

 

[KALEL114]

First off thanks to superkong 500 and Mr. Socko for the info.

Secondly I find it very funny that the prophet is named Ethan Hass and the last film that JJ did was MI:III, which the main character is Ethan Hunt. Hmmmm....

Ethan Haas is a character from the TV show The Class. In an episode he made reference to Cthulhu.

Also Lizzy Caplan is in this movie also. She was also on the show The Class.

Godzilla vs Cthulhu

It's not Godzillla people. Sony/Toho own the Godzilla rights. This is a Paramount movie.

 

[bored]

I doubt it'd actually be Cthulhu, but it could be something designed to tie into the Old Gods mythos. Lots of people do that already.

There's a water stain above my shower that looks like the Spectre.

No lie.

If you look at the photos on 1-18-08.com, only one eye of everybody is shown. I wonder if thats something?

 

[Untilteld]

oh when did the other photo get there?

Don't forget he had a character named Ethan Rom in lost too.

K so someone just told me that in the original Cthulhu story, the creature was not large enough to be causing the kind of destruction indicated in the trailer. In fact he's only about human sized. Is this true? Or can we speculate that if it is Cthulhu that JJ's taken some liberties with the character?

 

[Spade]

Umm...what? Cthulhu was described as comparative to a mountain walking in Lovecraft's "The Call of Cthulhu", so whoever told you he was human-sized was very wrong.

 

[Watson]

ok cool...I thought my info seemed a little weird

 

[-Æ-]

lol is this going to be like the Spiderman 3 thread when the black suit was first revealed, and they thought they could see something in its eye??

 

[Spade]

Doubtful. There's so much viral ARG to be had that half of it could very well be real. The phone number leads back to an actual recording based off of this advertising, so it's not like this isn't to be expected.

 

[Sam Fisher]

I just watched the trailer{cause I missed it with TF} and it sounded like the guy said "It's a lion".

 

[Spade]

"I saw it! It's alive! It's huge!"

That is what he said. Hence, the rumors about this being Voltron are cut down by the knees.

I wonder if there's a purpose to the pictures on 1-18-08.com moving once you move them.

Maybe he did. But I'm pretty sure that's not what I heard.



What is "Voltron" anyways?

Here's the text translated, for the most part:

We the Mezin never expected your kind might be so easily distracted, that all may be led by Van down the muglgarden (yeah, no idea what the **** that is, probably just garden...) path, that your eyes and minds would be so easily clouded.

You point to a date in the future that means nothing to our cause or your future...

Only 8-1-07 matters to our cause......

we have been here since mankind fought with sticks and bones, your technology may have improved but can the same be said for the human mind?

Most certainly a vile manipulator like Van Mantra will exploit these weaknesses in the masses and lead you all to ruin.

Clearly there are some among you who know the truth and may even be worthy of the Mezin, who have strenth of mind and will to see what truly awaits and are not destracted....

The time has come for us to reveal the madness of Haas, we have found his writing and will now expose them for the nonsense that they are...

Also, the thing about the pictures moving, apparently it's just a bug in the Flash code.

What if Ethan Haas and Van Mantra aren't here to help us? Maybe they are trying to mislead us.


Oh and I found this on the Ethan Haas Was Wrong Blog, more then likely fake, but interesting read, it supposedly reveals the plot:

Spoiler

I won't reveal my identity, but suffice it to say I now have a copy of the script. Here is the plot outline for those interested:

Ethan Haas was an archaeologist. He discovered, and later managed to translate, an ancient text describing the “Awakening” of a God. The Hindus called this God Kirttimukha. When he finished reading, he realized that mankind, even with our so-called “advanced” technology, would be no match for the hungry God.
The text referred to Man’s tendency to get lost in his own self-importance, his technological advances, to become one-minded and neglect the signs around him. And so no-one saw the coming of the God. Upon the last Awakening, Kirttimukha left the world in such a state of destruction that Man was forced to shelter underground for hundreds of years and thus losing all education – all knowledge – of his great accomplishments. Technology was dead, and Man had returned to his beginnings and once again lived the life of a caveman. Then an Elder figured out how to rid the world of this God. He began spreading the word that he knew how to defeat the mighty beast… and the word spread like wildfire. Thousands made their way to the Elder to discover how the beast might be beaten at long last. He informed them that if they could only gather enough Believers together in one place, to face the Beast as one, and if those people should chant the proper Mantra, the Beast would be forced into a great slumber such as the one it had awakened from. Only there was no Mantra. When the thousands gathered together in one place, and began to chant, the God heard them and came. And then He ate. Believing they could still be victorious, fooled by the Elder, no-one ran from the God. And so the God ate His fill that day… and then returned to his place of rest to sleep once more.
Ethan Haas figured out from the writings when the God would awaken again. He decided to become the Elder and send the Beast back before it had a chance to rend the world asunder. His plan has already started… people are listening and flocking together. Soon the God will awaken… and he will have such a meal waiting that his visit will be very, very short-lived.

I don't buy into it though, because I believe the Ethan Haas character is just providing background information and actually probably wont appear in the movie.

Found this, but I still think it's just her hair.

[YT]im7wWMVzIyg[/YT]

Kinda explains the hair.

Also, glad to know I'm not the only who thought the chick behind the guy in the pink shirt was creepy as hell.

 

[Wolfwood]

Maybe he did. But I'm pretty sure that's not what I heard.



What is "Voltron" anyways?

Voltron is an 80s cartoon about giant robotic lions that form to make one big ass robot.

Not related to Cloverfield, but I thought some of you might like this D-War trailer:
