I think the "leak" was on purpose.

Have the other photos in that thread been removed? And if so, by whom? And at anyone's request?

It seems more and more likely that this was not an inentional leak.
 
I ... ergh ... someone uploaded the pics from AICN to TinyPic (a subsidiary of Photobucket). But they have been removed from there. So it seems like Photobucket was contacted by Paramount, too. Or Photobucket removed them as a precaution. I don't know.
 
This does seem to fit the JJ Abrams mold for generating chatter. I remember the discussion about the Cloverfield -- the trailer itself generated a lot of discussion. It seemed that a lot of the people on the interwebs were convinced that everything in the CF trailer was symbolic -- apparently Jewish symbolism about Jewish monsters or creatures of some sort.

Then obviously in the early days of LOST -- there were numbers on the trees. Everybody was trying to figure out the meaning of the numbers. http://www.lostpedia.com/wiki/The_Numbers Read some of the theories -- waaay out there.

So this fellow seems to be the sort who deliberately creates mysteries to keep people tuned in. So thinking our man JJ leaked a few pics isn't totally out of character.
 
I wouldnt doubt if Abrahms has someone patrolling this and other sites like this and they noticed all the "Will Pine wear a wig" threads and mentioned it to abrahms. He probably then said something like this..."Call Cindy, head of our advertising department and have her whip up one of my little "leaks" then..."
That what I think happened...

Does that mean that more "Will Pine wear a wig" threads = more leaks?
