Different Versions of “Super 8” TV Spot Reveal More Clues and Questions Dan Koelsch, February 8, 2011March 11, 2011 Today we found out that there in fact at least two (and possibly three) versions of the Super Bowl TV Spot for Super 8, between what aired and what’s online (available in HD from Apple).The much-talked-about images within the final shot of the lens are actually different in each version, and when put together, give us a better idea of just what we were being shown. Similar to the original teaser, the viral bits of this trailer were allocated to the final image of a Super 8 camera lens with images flashing across it. Last time we got the STIES website. This time, we are given more cryptic clues, with images that differ between the TV and online versions. Thanks to the members of Unfiction and Super 8 News, the images from the two more common versions have been collected, and many actually fit together like a puzzle. Here are the groups of images below. So, that supposed “monster image” is really just part of some Quasimodo doll, which is equally creepy. It looks like that date we saw was really September 19, 1962. Still no significance yet. This shows a room with a briefcase on the floor, and a View-Master on top of that. Are these images from the film, or are they set during current time when the viral campaign takes place? We also found some other images hidden in one version trailer, which makes me wonder how many different ones there actually are. We have bleeding eyes, fedoras, and more.

Given the different versions of the trailers it makes me wonder actually how many of the images come from the movie, like you said, or from the ARG. I’m still trying to get all caught up on the game, and your posts have helped me out a lot with that. Also, thanks for grouping the images together! I’m waiting to see more from the Rocket Poppeteers site and Twitter, myself.
I have a new photo collage here, at the nend of the post http://www.soloparolesparse.com/2011/02/le-immagini-nascoste-nel-superbowl-trailer-di-super-8/
I posted a video on YouTube two days ago about this….here is the video that include screenshots…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JY-b-qf_mZ8
does no one else realize the last picture is upside down? not that it will make it so we can tell what it is but the object is clearly sitting on a table.
I can promise you that this movie was kept very very hush hush….the movie was filmed in my home town and my twins are extras in it and we would’ve NEVER guess the zombie thing.
