The Midnight Q Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 This movie will be FREAKIN' AWESOME! Saw bits an pieces of released clips and it just looks good. I'm thinking Independence Day ground combat rather than air warfare. Link to post Share on other sites
ckravitz Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Agreed. The movie looks absolutely amazing, and, like you said, will more than likely be on par with the greats (Independence Day). Just one more week... Link to post Share on other sites

ckravitz Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Oh, don't worry about it. I was going to ask for that topic to be closed so I can make a new one for its release. You just saved me time But, yeah, one more week!!! Link to post Share on other sites
The Midnight Q Posted March 11, 2011 Author Share Posted March 11, 2011 Just got back from seeing it. I have two words: FREAKIN' EPIC! Link to post Share on other sites
ckravitz Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 (edited) Just got back from seeing it. I have two words: FREAKIN' EPIC! I just got back from seeing it too (4:00 EST). It was "Freakin' Epic," as you said. The acting is amazing. The story is phenomenal. The visuals are pristine. It will go down in the record books in the same lists that Armageddon and Independence Day are under. I had very high hopes for this movie, and it wound up being 50x better than expected. Go see it.

Jade Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 I thought in thhe trailer it looked like a cross between Cloverfield and War Of The Worlds. I went to go watch it with my father the other day and it wasn't to bad. I loved the acting from the man from Batman: The Dark Knight. It wasn't to bad, but wasn't interesting either.

There's your problem. You didn't expect it to be a war movie. It's less of the science fiction and more of the military combat. If you approached the movie to be between Independence Day and Black Hawk Down, your opinion might've been different. Link to post Share on other sites

If you approached the movie to be between Independence Day and Black Hawk Down, your opinion might've been different.Agreed. I was expecting a Sci-Fi "End of the World" sort-of film. Instead, however, it was (like you said) similar to Independence Day and Black Hawk Down. Link to post Share on other sites

Do not tell me what I thought. ¬¬ Link to post Share on other sites
The Midnight Q Posted March 22, 2011 Author Share Posted March 22, 2011 It's just when you mentioned Cloverfield and War of the Worlds, those two movies are very sci-fi. I'm under the impression that you were expecting the movie to be like those. Link to post Share on other sites

Oh that's what people saw? I didn't see many trailers of the movie save for clips released on YouTube. The one that definitely made me want to see it was the scene called "First Contact", it definitely told me this was going to be a war flick. Link to post Share on other sites

Best trailer award? Anyone else agree? I called the movie, after seeing this trailer, a disaster movie through the eyes of the soldiers. However, it wound up being more like a war movie than a disaster. Link to post Share on other sites
