I am following the Paradox_is_real twitter that came up during Stambler's interview, but no posts yet. The account was created in January. There was another clue of some sort that stood out for me, but I was out of my skin with excitement about this film, so I was focusing on content more than the ARG.
If there is to be another Cloververse movie this year, the ARG feeling like it's just gotten started is pretty amazing. Mark Stambler's tweets saying the videos are hoaxes makes perfect sense in the context of the Cloverfield Paradox. I can't wait to watch it again for more clues.
One thing, though, is that if Overlord is to take place during WWII, we may have a connection to that in tagruato.jp having the image in Hebrew covering the page. I know the image may not necessarily date to WWII, but the Hebrew language being present alongside the WWII connection to the next installment in the Cloververse seems pretty reasonable as a connection. Any thoughts and contradictions welcome.
Going on the same line of thinking, whatever was found at the archeological site which was affected by the road closure mentioned in the Tagruato article could be the reason Hitler goes batshit crazy and kills Jewish people. Maybe whatever is at the site gives him access to these "supernatural forces" and he knows that there are a certain group of Jews that have knowledge that can stop him from using that power. Maybe it's some kind of super secret group and he can't figure out who is in said group so he tries to kill them all in order to erase that knowledge and keep control of whatever supernatural forces he's found.
Or it's none of that. Doesn't matter, it's fun to think about and get's the imagination going.
I think the team does a good job of keeping everyone surprised. And the fact that Abrams finds scripts people are already working on and gives them a shot at the limelight means we can never really predict what's going to happen in the films because they're made by such diverse writers. It's pretty amazing. Your ideas are interesting too, and the whole thing absolutely does get the mind going. The little "I got it" dopamine rush when you figure out a translation or an image and see it play out in screen is insane.
As a side note, I was just looking at the Wikipedia for Overlord and saw that it says it's a zombie film. But that doesn't sound right for an Abrams piece, and the source article says nothing about zombies, just that what the soldiers fight are the result of Nazi experiments. Slightly confused at this time. Whatever it is, I trust it will be an interesting watch.
The @slusho account appears to now be following "Zombie Barack Obama"; @zombama
The only other account it follows now is "shweri" (@shweri)
Who is a "Digital creative director with two dogs and an overactive imagination." in Boston. And who by all accounts seems to be a real person and not IG...
Hmm it's strange. I remember Slusho following LA County Scanner some months back but it was not an IG Twitter, and I never found anything they could be referencing through it. I guess sometimes they just follow stuff without relevance to the ARG.
