If the review is accurate (IF), then I imagine this film could be a whole lot of fun. We'll see though.

I read it...I know from here til then, I'll forget, but....WOW. That was interesting.

Real or not, that blurb was awesome and takes its' description seriously.

Now, whether or not this was just a "test".....maybe it means they're gonna expand on the movie.....and they should, anyway.

It's quite possible this indeed happened, and from personal experience, it just happens out of the blue.

When they pick you for one of these, it's like a raffle - they come up to you and aks you like a mini-survey, then give you a ticket to go to a pre-determined place. Once there, you show your ticket, go to the room they tell you, and once there they tell you you need to see the movie, sign a few(3-4) papers confirming your silence, then you watch the movie and when prompted, give your input to a psychologist-type in the room.

They don't give you anything, except in my case, food and $10. I did it for what is now known as "Robotech:Shadow Chronicles".

Now, he could scan the ticket as proof, but since only a handful of test tickets are given, he could be revealing who he is, thanks to the bar code number.

Ummm...remember the "testing commitee"? maybe this is a ploy to get more revenue, since the blood n' guts would scare the kids. Either that or somewhere out there, a testing pannel did come to the conclusion that it was too bloody, and trimmed it down.

Of course, this could also be done on purpose to sell the "Uncensored, Complete Archives" version of the movie like hotcakes in winter when it comes out.....

And if there is blod and gore and bad language thoughout, it's not used out of context. The MPAA allows some amount of words to go through, but not all. The blood and gore, if kept to a minimum, could make a PG-13 movie.

But yeah, if the belly-blowers are shown at any time, then maybe those parts have been censored or taken out....or just insinuated.

JJ's thinkin' cash now...."How can I get more money?"....hmmm...I know! We get the kids to roll with this! mass merchandising and advertising! It'll be wonderous!

:D

Just over a month till the movie... and still no solid pictures.

Jeez. Oh hey that reminds me :idea:

Hey, mister "I'll EAT MAH OWN WURDZ IF IT AIN'T A GODZILLER FLICK" if you're still out there I got the biggest serving of "I Told You So" with a side of "Humility Fries" and a large pitcher of "Wallow In Your Tears" in store for you.

Everything we've already seen put back into their original cohesive scene. Still, pretty cool. But again, nothing we haven't seen.

Wow...this movie has...REALLY let itself go. We could've had A LOT more viral marketing done, especially during the holidays.

Well....guess that just give room for someone else to use those strategies....:P :D

I'll be there opening night...but some of that dialogue was TERRIBLE. Why can't anyone write a realistic and natural dialogue anymore? At least the effects look cool and we'll be getting some monster mayhem soon.
