I have to throw this out there: You guys and all of your mad fiendish talk of being so upset by Ridley's 'science' comments, like the one he makes about "walking around the truth," and Lindelof's comment, etc... Uh, to me that's obviously a brilliant angle to spin this movie on.
The whole 'found footage' bullshit and 'maybe this could be possibly real or was once in some way' Fourth Kind bullshit are steaming hot right now, culturally speaking. Those are frankly brilliant things to say from a movie marketing perspective, as you can get away with them and entice even
more moviegoers that are suckers for the whole what-if, found-footage type of thing.
As long as it's treated seriously, which you can obviously tell that it is, the masses will come running.
Brilliant, I say.
You guys put the anal in over-analysis.
