a new teaser trailer is out for this movie.
i believe it takes place before the Mayan people were conquered. so all the people would be indigenous (certainly no white men). he didn't use any (or very few) professional actors either.
so you've watched the teaser trailer, right?
ok good.
notice anything? ok, go to 1:46 in the trailer. notice anything.... now?

The movie looks good. Must be nice to be able to do what ever the hell you want to do.

That's funny. It's like something right out of "Fight Club", when Tyler Durden inserts a frame of a porno film into a kids movie.

Holy crap.
I watched this before you posted this. And even going back and re-watching I cant see it, I can find the frame, but I just cant see it when in motion.
And just recently on my latest viewing of Fight Club I noticed a totally new subliminal Tyler that I never noticed before. Makes me wonder what kind of subliminal **** I am missing all the time…

You have to really nit pick around at 1:46 to catch that frame it's extremely quick.

Isn't that kind of a racist statement?

I think he meant how Hollywood has a tendency to use Anglos (with heavy makeup) to represent indigenous people (ie. Daniel Day Lewis in "Last of the Mohicans").

I get it the trailer. The natives deserved to be conquered and robbed by Catholic conquistadors because they didn't have Jesus and they sacrificed criminals to their gods. Go on Mel, bash us on the head again. Next we will have ----Holocaust : What really happened---- by Award Winning Megalomaniac Mel Gibson.

I may be wrong, but I think I see another oddity in the same frame! Isn't that monkey a baboon? Look at the snout and the closely spaced nostrils that point down, not out, like most new world monkeys. Also, those teeth are huge! Yea, I'm pretty sure that's a baboon. New world monkeys don't usually have teeth like that. I guess Mel didn't think the organ grinder monkeys of South America were ferocious enough so he had to import one from Africa.

It takes place before the 16th-century Spanish conquest of Mexico and Central America.

Huh? I know that movie took quite a bit of liberty with Cooper's work, but Hawkeye (Nathaniel Bumpo) was never an Indian in either book or movie. He was Chingachgook's adopted son. Pure white boy.
Sorry, James Fenimore Cooper lived in and wrote The Pathfinder in my town, so growing up his books were required reading

There are a whole bunch of subliminal images of Tyler in "Fight Club". Like when Jack starts to get bored with the support groups, and he's walking down the street after one of their meetings. You can see him in the background, it's a slight flash. Or when Jack goes to the doctor to get some sleeping pills, he can be seen next to the doctor in the hallway. There are too many to list, but you might want to go to imdb.com, and check out the trivia section for the movie.

Sorry, had been a very long time since I'd seen the movie (and never read the book). It's not my genre of literature.

the trailer was linked on aint it cool news along with a note that mel gibson appeared in it. i thought this unlikely since A) i didn't remember seeing him and B) the movie is about ancient Mayan people. so i looked thru it frame by frame until i found it. then i snapped the screenshots. the rest is, well, this thread.

k, I was wondering because I think it is almost impossible to spot him when you don't do a frame by frame search… Thanks for sharing.
