The next screen shows a list of supplemental files with various suffix codes.
I was only able to find three of the actual files:
13VD - TAG VD #18 - #21 - This looks like a sampling of some of the Chuai station videos. The numbering indicates that there are many more than the seven that were originally found. These don't appear to be on the DVD however.
144VD - Person Of Interest - JL VD #2 - #12 - This is a screenshot of the list of JamieAndTeddy videos.In this case, the indication of "online source" fits with the fact that the videos are not on the DVD.
34VD - Org. of interest - Tag VD #12 - This is a screen shot of the Slusho! site, but it is strangely missing the "Slusho Making Fresh Improvements Just For You" tagline and the Mobile phone message. This is also marked "online source".
UPDATE: The files have been found.
I totally thought this would happen... maybe that's where the swords are coming from... they definitely have ties to the dvd.
ReplyDeletescene selection - 9-12 - click up on 10
ReplyDeleteif you press enter, nothing happens. I guess the author of the DVD just left it out. All the reason to go buy the real deal.
This could continue with the theme of the camera being found by th government after the bombing, ya know, with the Supplemental Files name..
ReplyDeletesrry to doubble post but isn't #USGX-8810-B467 what appeared in the begining of the movie, around when you see the dharma logo, as the goverment's name for the SD card in the camera?
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure it said something like
DOCUMENT #USGX-8810-B467
DIGITAL SD CARD
MULTIPLE SIGHTINGS OF CASE DESIGNATE "CLOVERFIELD"
so maybe the dvd is a bunch of the Goverment's info on the event, all on one CD/DVD. It would explain the Slusho, Chuai and Jamieandteddy.com refrences.
In the scene selections menu there is hidden red x that can be found above scene 10
ReplyDeleteYou know...I just realized something. The sword logo...it looks a bit like a sword going through Clover's head, looking left. His jaw unfolds somewhat like that. But it also looks like a wave. Perhaps a tie-in to his origins? This could be the government's logo for the project to kill the beast.
ReplyDeleteYou can scratch that last theory, I guess. The logo isn't always oriented the correct way it seems to support the idea.
ReplyDeletemaybe its there to show all the viral sites they put up incase we missed some.
ReplyDeleteHold up...JL VD #2-#12?
ReplyDeleteThere's a twelfth Jamie video!? I wonder what it will be?
And why is video #1 not of interest?
www.findteddyhanssen.com
ReplyDeleteIs the "find Teddy" site anything of substence? It looks like someone just exactly copies the 1-18-08 page and removed the other files. Looks like a hack to me, but then a couple of things associated with this ARG have looked that way. Anyone know?
ReplyDeleteAbout the jamie and teddy thing, Jamie could be a person of intrest because she ate some of the "evidence" and was most likely one of the last people teddy contacted. As for the video 2-12 thing, it could either means that scince jamie recived the "present" from teddy in video 2, Jamie has the present in all of the videos untill 5, when she opens it, then video 8, when she ate the evidence, and videos 9-11 which could be used to moniter the effects of the "evidence" on a normal person AKA Jamie, and there i another video to be posted by the 22nd, OR it could mean that there is a hidden video, based on the fact that picture (which is gone at the time that i'm typing this) olny 11 videos can be seen, and 11 known videos +1 hidden videos make 12 total.
ReplyDeleteWhere are the pictures? I can't see anything!
ReplyDeletecool, they should have included some ARG vidoes just to fill in gaps and such. nice point ty about jamieandteddy video #1 not important and the missing #12? and the findteddyhanssen.com site...seems legit but there's a chance its not. nice find though
ReplyDeleteif you stay on the findteddyhanssen.com site long enough it plays the recording of the tape that teddy sent jamie, wierd
ReplyDeleteSince when did Tagruato kidnap Teddy? Did I miss that or was it just so long ago that I forgot about it?
ReplyDeleteI don't know how to find these mentioned easter eggs on the dvd...but i found something interesting...I put the dvd into my computers disc drive and opened the VIDEO TS folder and explored the files within...I don;t know a lot about dvd technology, but there are a bunch of .ifo,.bup, and .vob files, the .vob files show up on my computer as playable videos, but my video playerdecodes them all funky so i cant really watch them, but i could open them up and view them as partially scrambled videos (kinda like back in the day when you would try to unscramble cable channels...hehehe) anyway here is what i found... VTS_07_1.VOB is clearly a video file of all of the Chuai news reports from all over the world, VTS_08_1.VOB is one or all of the Jamie Lascano videos, and VTS_09_1.VOB is some sort of Slusho Commercial...so these are on the DVD somehwere, now how the heck do we actually find them???!!!!
ReplyDeleteOur person of interest, dear Jamie, put out eleven vids so far on her website. But I'm seeing #2-#12... 2 throught twelve still adds up to eleven videos, could it be that they made a mistake, and it's really videos 1-11?
ReplyDeleteOff topic, I finished reading the third manga, a friend of mine translated it for me. Basicly, that cell in the incubator is a device to controll the monster developed perhaps by tagruato (unclear). It was stollen by Kishin's mother and implanted in him, perhaps to keep it safe. Kishin thinks she really cared about it, not him. His father tries to kill him, he thinks everyone hates him, but the monster must obey him. "You listen to me, don't you?" "We will destroy all the unnecessary things in this world." Plot taking a corny turn? Or is this an interesting direction to go in?
Will, please send me an email (dennis@cloverfieldclues.com). Would your friend be willing to help translate for us too? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteBAH! a friend gave me a "copy" of the dvd.. and you can find every icon for every easter egg.. but whoever authored the disc removed said hidden gems. I was gonna buy it anyways.. but come on.. disc space is not that precious
ReplyDeleteJoseph, I tried looking at those files on my dvd, but their blank one second clips, so I believe my source cut out the files to save space. Have you tried DVD Shrink to look at the files? It can find every single video that's on the disk.
ReplyDeleteOff topic, but can anyone do anything by pressing the red X above chapter ten, or is it completely useless for everyone? Hopefully the retail DVDs will be complete.
I got the DVD yeasterday. There are only two easter eggs I am able to find, one is the famous X, wich leads to the parasite sequenci in the subway (instead of parasites there are green X's) ant the helicopter that leads to the funny "We're phantom in 15" montage. The other easter eggs I found by checcking the Titles of the DVD one by one. From what I could find we have the various news reports from all over the world of the Tagruato station colapse, the Slusho ad, and a few videos of the drunken girl at the party. I hope I've helped. Anything just add jnfsantiago@hotmailcom for questions on this matter, and also if you have any idea of where in the hell those other easter eggs are in the menus.
ReplyDeleteI must be the only one without the extras, because I waited a minute and seventeen seconds on the 13-16 scene page, and nothing seems to be happening. Can someone help me out?
ReplyDeleteMadman Marz... where did you get your DVD?
ReplyDeleteOne more thing, on the menu there's a site that doesn't seem to be working. it's www.cloverfieldfiles.com
ReplyDeleteas for hidden content on the dvd when placed in the computer...
ReplyDeleteI tried using divx to see what scenes were in the file video_ts and came to the conclusion that it contains little splices of the paramount intro (with the stars), the dvd special features, and the only the slusho commericial, the Chuai station, and Jamies only playable videos. All were extremely scrambled. So it looks like we cant force our way into the files there either. There has to be some way... guess we'll just have to wait... :C
This is a bit of a spoiler so to speak...
ReplyDeleteSo I found that chapter 17 on the DVD . From what I have seen it is nothing new that I saw before the movie came out in the theatres. The news broadcasts about the oil rigs. The Slusho thing and even the girl. They were all out before the movie came out.
Just saw the movie today... I know, I'm behind the curve. Scoured the DVD for gems. Found all the eggs mentioned, plus something new: at the VERY END of the credits (the final 5 seconds or so), there is a reversed audio sample of the director saying "It's still alive."
ReplyDeleteSequel?
to get the hidden movies on the dvd go to scene selection highlight the scene numbers 15-16 and just wait for 2 minutes then a scene 17 will appear and press enter.
