This Week In Viral – Cloverfield 2? Dan Koelsch, March 1, 2009July 18, 2010 That’s right, JJ Abrams spoke at WonderCon about the possibility of Cloverfield 2. Here is the video: Not much more than what he and Director Matt Reeves have said in the past, though it seems like they finally have a good idea for the sequel/spin off. Viral news on Angels & Demons, Surrogates, District 9, and 2012 after the jump. Angels & Demons – Kudos go out to member “lion” from the forums who found out the codes for the viral site. The codes are 1918, 5118208, 69185, and 23120518. Each shows a night vision video of a different priest in some kind of jail cell, and apparently represent wind, air, fire, and water. “lion” got the codes from the official site, though my attempts at finding them have turned up nothing. Surrogates – Register on the viral site for new surrogate models coming out this year. It should be interesting to see what they do with this. District 9 – Thanks to David for these updates. The film has starting advertising on the web, as seen on Slashfilm.com. Also, one of the viral sites, district9.com, is now under construction. Be sure to follow developments in the forum. 2012 – Charlie Frost is at it again. Now he has a video about the Mayan religious figure Kukulcan.
