I was watching the trailer again and I saw something flash by the screen very quickly at the 1:12 minute mark. The scene where everyone is vacating the roof after the shrapnel from the explosions is beginning to land all around the party goers.

A clue

The only problem is the top part of the graffiti is off camera so it will take some speculation and some figuring to find out what it is. The part that is readable is a year and some initials (presumably).

2004 ACE

Is the top portion the day and month of the date? I don’t know. I am trying to see if there is some tie in to the Tagruato site. Let me know if you find out anything as well.

Just a crazy idea, someone think to keep an eye on Google Earth the evening and next day after 01-18-08. I was wondering if the folks at Paramount will have some sort of deal with the crazy kids at Google for some sort of Google Earth tie in to the J.J. Abrams movie we are all salivating over.

I was wandering around G.E. this evening to see if I could spot some of the Tagruato Stations mentioned over at cloverfieldclues. Also looked to see the Statue of Liberty and New York City. Wouldn’t it be something if the path of destruction made by the creature(s) were to be visible for a day or two as satellite pictures on Google Earth?

Or if the day before the release of the movie there be large dark objects producing tremendous wakes in the water behind them as they approach New York city? I was kind of hoping to see some featured content with some of the stations.

Just wondering if something will pop up on Google Earth when the movie is released.

Okay Cloverfield/Monstrous fans, the slusho.jp page has the Distribution Opportunities button and when you visit it the whole Slusho gang is there to help you to make the decision to become a Slusho distributor. But, two of the flavors have some extra baggage. Mikan is wearing an oven mit and Blueberry Zoom has a hammer in his midsection. Oh, and the monkey has the cheese.

Slusho Clues

All these objects are in the history page as well.

I am not sure how all these little errata go together. I am wondering if all these things peppered on the page don’t add up to some sort of rebus puzzle a’la the old television show Concentration…

Also, I am not convinced that this “mystery” ingredient isn’t something like ambergris, the secretion of the sperm whale’s intestines.

Yes! It is time for another update. And yes, there is some text on the back of this picture.

And translated:

Everybody, thank you for viewing! I’ll introduce this week’s delicious recipe. Please make sure to keep this one cold!

*Skinless chicken breast - 2, cut in halves
*Soumen (a kind of japanese noodle) - 10 oz.
*Watercress - 1/2 cup cut into small strips
*Turnip - 1/2 cup, thinly sliced
*Shiitake (japanese mushrooms) - 1/2 cup
*Chicken stock - 1/3 cup
*Sake (japanese rice wine) - 2 tbsp.
*Sugar - 1/2 tsp.
*Ocean-bottom crab - one

In a small saucepan, stir together 1/3 cup water, chicken stock, sake, and sugar. Chill it until it becomes cold. Grill the chicken breast on both sides for about 8 minutes, and then chill. Boil the noodles for about 3 minutes, and then run under cold water until chilled. Mix the watercress, turnips, and mushrooms into the soumen. Slice the chicken thinly and arrange on top of the soumen mix. Just before you serve, put the crab in the sauce and pour over the noodles generously.

Go go Oishii (”delicious”) Chef!”
