#kill switch

I’ve been a huge fan of viral marketing for movies and since I’m currently on a bit of a Dan Stevens kick rn, I  was watching the Kill Switch teaser and noticed a coupla things. Ramblings under the cut:

• the first shot with first-person HUD-esque visuals names the footage as being seen by William Porter - ie. Dan’s character
• “connected to visual cortex“ - anyone who knows me will know that this sorta thing is my jam tbh >_>
• this movie seems to be taking place in 2043
• the name of the company in question is Alterplex Energy (which tallies up with a character mentioned from IMDB)
• the message “you are under arrest” is displayed a few times
• there are drones present which Will is operating - I’m assuming that since he’s supposed to be a pilot, these are what he guides?
• an explosion that takes place sees that one of his pursuing drones in question are from Alterplex, based on a fragment that comes apart
• thepresskillswitch site stated at the end shows a countdown, and the source-code behind the page gives the message “Hello again, are you ready?”
  
  
• “What’s in the box?“ briefly flashes up during the teaser which could link to an old video, set in England by the same channel “Timacious” from 2009 - the box is question in the older video seems to be the same one shown at the start of the Kill Switch teaser with the red circle
  
• the older video shows the use of a computer-brain interface from Babel Research, which ties in quite well with all the shots from the teaser
• there’s the inclusion of the wormhole-esque manifestation in the sky in both videos
• tbh i rec watching the older video - it’s only 8 mins long and is p cool.
