all g-m members, youve been had
this troll planned it well, to add insult to injury, he made this video with our drought of marketing, but at the same time I personally think it was well done and funny
I won't be the least bit surprised if we find out that it was in fact 100% false.
Some people want to be the bringers of the next revelation so badly that it's just sad. I said it before when Chris made his big post about the newest gaggle of news, a lot of which I still believe to be a load of bs, and I'll say it again.
Chris should double check his sources and the validity of the information they acquire instead of just blindly trusting what they have to say. Not to say that's exactly what he's doing, but still, it would be a good move on his part to be more suspicious of his sources, regardless of how well he knows them.
I don't blame anyone for believing this. It's very well put out and executed in a manner that makes it quite convincing. The picture alone could be made with a program as free as GIMP and even Paint.NET, if done right.
They did this because theyd knew we and Chris wouldve fell for it and that Chris would've posted them as news, which he did, so that later on it would be revealed that they were fake the entire time so that THIS WEBSITE would not get any more attraction due to making it look like we post fake news.
I'm not surprised, and ik much of you are gonna be pissed off or hate me for saying this, which i dont give a shit cuz this website and it's members are already screwed up; but what they did I kinda liked and approved.
Im not 100%, but I do believe the main purpose of this trolling was to test if Chris would still post these as news without checking for a reliable source. Cuz if i did this fake video and picture, thats exactly what I wouldve done, i wouldve photoshopped a very real looking picture and create a very real looking video so I can test if this website would fall for it.
These trolls proved that this website should kind of be a "must stay away" website that post fake news. And you heard me, I like and approve what they did, cuz they proved correctly that this website isnt reliable.
Its not that they consumed my mind, its that im just starting agree myself to not have any hope for this website anymore. Dramatic members, unreliable sources, and trolls that try to prove this website's not good, which I believe they almost got there or they probably did. So go ahead members of this website, hate me for what I said, i dont care anymore, ill still go on this website and have all the hate that i can ignore, I just expressed my personnal opinion about this website thats all.
from the dude on reddit who made the hoax (an extremely good one at that):
"i made this, i made all of it from the "mobile game" stills to the 2 "leaked" 3/4 second trailers, and pretended to be part of the crowd that thought it was real. yeah ill understand if you are mad at me, but it was for the greater good of showing how bad godzilla-movies is at background checking"
so dragonlord you're pretty much right about him testing this website
JUNKERDE Yep i guessed correctly, cuz theres no other reason why someone would really do such hard work on these fakees, unless for fun, but that seems too small you know, so of course they were testing this website, and the test was passed
The key reason they probably made them take it down was because it featured a used clip from the movie?
That is the most I can assume, or that they themselves were assuming it was a piece of concept work that they didn't know about that had leaked. There is all sorts of reasons why-- they could have been just as in the dark about its authenticity as well-- it happens.
That is my best guess.
AKAGI Maybe the members of Warner Bros. that took it down probably thought it was a scene from the movie or trailer so they took it down.
Get what I mean? Maybe they havent seen the movie and stuff but idk im probably wrong
@Tevin
I mean they were using a modified clip of the film, I should have clarified that.
sadly chris, yes there are people who goes above and beyond just like that to get quick laughs on the internet, i mean a person once faked cancer on reddit to get a greeting message from one of their favorite bands, it worked. it's the sad truth unfortunately....
The source who provided me with the video claims to have had a rough patch with the Studio after sending me them. Was that a lie? The emails seemed convincing enough to me and I've had leaks for different movies before. Either way - extreme measures for a quick laugh.
And again, I'll stress - this is a video of a PHOTO MANIPULATION, NOT a video showing the footage being created.

Chris,
In that very post you admit that, "Anyone with enough Photoshop skills can manipulate layers of an image." I think it's pretty clear that's what's happened here to begin with.
Yes, some people have a lot of time on their hands, but I think it's worth cutting a loss here. I meantioned before that it looked manipulated and that it was odd there were only 3 second clips-- What we have here are feasable answers for why/how.
The backtracking about it being in a trailer, then later removed for another shot doesn't help either. It makes it look even fishier. Then there's the fact that WB hasn't pulled any of the videos on youtube down-- which, as we all know from experience, they are very much on the ball with that sort of thing.
People - it was a 4 second clip showing virtually nothing. Hoax or not, a lot you are wound up. Chris Picard's a good guy and this is a fan website. The new trailer is coming, TV spots are coming. The movie is coming. Patience, everyone.
unfortunately chris, i do have to agree with the others tha it is fake, you can see all the seperate layers in the photoshop part and after effects part of the video, plus the guy used my damn fanart! but dont let you get this down he did bring in many visitors, but at the loss of reputation......idk its a win lose
I agree with Chris on this. Although I had originally believed it was a fake, WB took it down. Which means that WB had the rights to do so. If this was just a fan made thing, then WB has no grounds to remove the video, no matter how legit it looks. I'd like a video of someone making this, not just someone messing around with an adobe program.
ive been frequenting this news and you guys spoke too soon, this was a link on Rob from ETNS video, music is creepy to say the least, i wonder what rob has to say about this in his next video

edit: someone who has an understanding of this, what the fuck is happening here?
Amen Chris! :) I sure hope this is just a bunch of morons screwing with us (or at least trying to), and the leaked material is in fact real. This whole thing seems a little fishy either way. Someone is a troll, but they won't bring this site down!
