The obvious answer is AstroJones made it up, or someone sent it to him, but it just doesn't seem like it I've known that guy since Sledgeweb's Summer hunt, and he doesn't seem like one to pull off a hoax this big, especially not one so detailed and intricate, calling advanced parallels like that that few people have even talked about lettalone pulled-off like it's confirmed...
Whatever the case may be (heheh 112) there's one thing I'm sure of: the music in that video, at the beginning and the end, is directly taken from Orientation (203), the blips are at exactly the same spots! (and I would know after making LVI: Orientation).
That means either it's a hoax, it was made by an outside contractor (like the other promo stuff) and probably can't be considered canon, or it's an official thing, but they were too cheap, lazy, or unorganized to take their original stock and rerender it, so the blips would show at new places, and instead just cut it from old eps.
Some of the techniques, particularly the blips, the reel going up effects and the sound blips, take a lot of work to get working properly, especially with a cheap editor (IMPOSSIBLE with WMM, and tough to do with Vegas (did you know you have to manually add in every one of those blips and hairs in Vegas I just made 5 seconds of it and looped it over and over for the rest of the vid!)
Just thought this was interesting ewnough to be worth mentioning I believe what it says about the other hatch and the security system, and suspect we'll know the truth by the end of the season. The cut out part at the end was probably warning about the Dharma Shark. |
