Something you may have not noticed: When Mr. Wake lights up the flare and when they switch to Mark you can see the red light behind the hill (actually first you see the red light and then camera switches to AW.

As for the location, I suspect Espoo, Nuuksio National Park. I have been there a couple of times larping and it is a stunning place, perfect for Alan Wake.


I also think it was Nuuksio National Park. I have never been there, though, and cannot say for sure. However the photos of the Park, which I have seen on the web, closely resemble the surroundings in the War video. The road, woods, mountain… everything except for the lake. :? Hmm, it looks like a crater one. Are there any of this kind in Nuuksio?

I hope Tiia might soon shed some light on the numerous mysteries of the video. :wink: Anticipating… :roll:

Hmmm, I'm not sure what details I'm allowed to give out :) having said that, we're probably putting up a gallery of the stills I took while filming the video. Maybe you Sherlocks can find out something new from those!

Again an awesome video. A stereotype POTF kinda video. Totally off-beat. Marko is much more expressive than the model :wink: . I think Marko would have done a better job than the model :idea: . Anyway all in all another super-rocking video. Keep rocking the world guyz... Luv u...

8) Yeah definitely I don't know who the model is (not even interested). But I feel that he's not expressive.

That's OK, I guess you'd like to see Marko as the main character but this video is for a game. Ok, from a game... aaah... ^^ I hope you know what I mean. The only thing I cannot admit is not expressive *model* :D Ilkka is awesome and looks and acts much better then his Xbox clone.

What confuses me a bit are the yellow lines on the middle of the road at about 1:12 minutes in the video.
all center lines on finnish road i've seen are white.

Please do! I'll wear my best spy outfit and help solve the location mystery.

I'll also amuse myself saying: Elementary, my dear forumers.

At least we're not trying to find connections to Illuminati conspiracy in the video. Yet.

Bonny, I'm pretty sure no animals were harmed during the filming!

:D OMG! Yes I am sure the Illuminati are behind this! Someone look into that please! No time to waste! (Hmmmm........might watch Angels and Demons again today :wink: )

@Bonny

You honestly think POTF would allow animals to be hurt during the filming of a video? :shock:

:D @Lisa! I came up with my answer without looking at yours first!

:shock: Do you think I should hop a plane to Italy and meet you at the Vatican???? :? :D

@Lisa

Well if the illuminati are indeed involved in this conspiracy don't you think it our duty to the band to sneak into the map room and.............oh wait ummm.....do you think we need to go to another room instead? Do you think the Vatican is behind this instead of the Illuminati? Cause in the movie Ewan McGregor was an evil cardinal but wait, the other cardinals didn't know he was and they were cool so........wow this is gonna be double tough! :shock:

Sorry............cannot make any promises but I am sure we will try our darnedest! And which building is that? The one with the Pope in it? I know about St Peter's.......is it ok if something happens to that one? Oh is the Basilica where the Sistine Chapel is? If it is we will be extra careful there! What about the museums? Not so much? Let us know!


Right Lisa? Oh did she already go to the airport?? :? I guess I better book a flight!


Ok I know hijacked the thread! Sorry just a little humor :wink: !

Carry on......... :oops:

may I remind you that you and I are already having a hard time making plans to get to a place that's much more accessible than the secret rooms of the Vatican? :lol: :roll:


oops.. are we going a bit off-topic? :oops: er.. ahem.. hey, look over there! Is that Captain dressed as a clown? :o

*runs to hide while everybody's looking away* :P

Oh so St Peter IS the Basilica! :oops: My bad!

Yes that mission is top priority! That is why you are the general and I merely follow your orders Sir! Or Ma'am! :wink:

Oh look it's Marko by the fire singing and throwing pieces of the book into it! I love that shot everyone take a look!


*Dang you made me answer! Follows Lisa into the catacombs*

Well, I just wanted to say I liked the video, like all videos from Poets... However I was kinda disappointed in the sense that I wanted the story to be more... war-related. I might be imagining too much, but when I listen to the song I imagine a couple fighting in a war, or having all odds against them and somehow emerging victorious in the end lol...

But well I'm no videoclip director, so I wanted to congratulate everyone who made such a nice video anyways. :)

I was kinda hoping the War video would be war-ish like war times, but i dont know.

Honestly, I really liked the video :) and I could spot most of the band... but I still haven't figured out who the clown was o.o

If there ever was time for a spoiler tag (to be able to hide it). I'll just write it here in small and black so maybe it won't be so visible.
Ok, the clown is: Captain
The behind the stage pictures of War music video shoot (from the make-up room) in Alchemy Vol.1 reveal this. :)

I thought that might have been him, but I wasn't 100% sure.
