Haven't seen a thread on this yet so I figured I'd start one. I think the media has it all wrong when it comes to speculation on this movie.

It's not about a camera.

Super 8 is a program the U.S. military invoked in with bio-genetics experts. 8 experts who were working on exo-genetic samples that were recovered from the Roswell, N.M. crash.

And also, Super 8 revolves around one man. Phil Schneider. Phil used to work at Area 51 and is responsible for building two of the main bases there.

Now back in 1979 there was a major incident that occurred there.

Was this a result on why they were moving things to Ohio??? Possible.

Another thing that's noticeable in the trailer is the railroad cars.

Could this be what they're referring too??? Maybe.

Now I usually take things with a grain of salt but I'm inclined to believe this is maybe what Abrams is basing his movie on. Not saying any of this is true, just saying that maybe this is the story Abrams is drawing his inspiration on.

One last thing about Phil. He's dead. Apparently it was suicide.
