- mikecb 12y agoYou sure? It redirects into the foobar game, which seems more like fizz buzz type challenges.
- andrewryno 12y agoThe footer has links to Google. Unless Google is now doing movie marketing. This is also part of another game that was submitted a couple weeks ago which was a recruiting game for GOogle.
- vnagpal 12y agoI got to that site through this movie trailer https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=sXKl3qu10-s#t=3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=sX... if you look at the paper at 3 second mark you can see the address "146.148.62.204". But now i wonder if its somehow connected with google
- magnusg7 12y agoWow! You clearly pay attention... I wonder if I would have noticed this. Thanks for sharing! Somehow, google must have to do with this, either google paying weinstein for displaying this or weinstein paying google for making this a social media booster.

- vnagpal 12y agoWell Benedict asked to pay close attention :D
- kripke 12y agoIt is also on the blackboard at the end (around 0:57), and possibly on some other places. Google "sponsoring" them in exchange of putting an IP address in their trailer is something I would absolutely see them do.
- gcmartinelli 12y agoalso at blackboard at 0:10 and 0:26, and at a paper sheet at 0:12
- rtkwe 12y agoHaha right as Turing says "Are you paying attention too." Pretty clever. I don't think this is purely a movie advert though. The Imitation Game relation explains how they expected people to get the non number base/regex clue.
- OGC 12y ago"The Imitation Game – Are You Paying Attention – The Weinstein Company" Heh.
