Okay!

After calming down, Chuck draws a face into the smeared blood, names the ball Wilson, and begins talking to it. He continues to talk to it regularly during the rest of his time on the island.

What part might clue 1 and clue 2 have to do either with the movie title, Castaway, or the blood smeared ball named Wilson, praytell!

Well done @Charlemagne1333!
