Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, or Apocalypse Advice Thread, or I love trailers

So this trailer popped up for a steve carrell-kiera knightly movie, Seeking A Friend for the End of the World

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1OqEY4PqyU

which is basically an extended ending to an alternate version of Armageddon where Bruce Willis screws up, and it looks super neat!

And hey man, it basically seems like one man's quest to find true love in the face of the end of days, only he'll totally end up with Kiera Knightly duh, and involves dry humor and hilarious cameos, so I'm uber-excited!

Anywho, how'd you react to the news that a planet-killing meteor was coming in like 3 weeks?


Another cool trailer i watched today was for Girls, a new hbo comedy series from judd apatow

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RIqj_ZgGN0

which brings to mind more his work in freaks and geeks, with a whole lot more #whitepeopleproblems, and it also looks cool! Critics have been billing it as the anti-sex and the city, and seems like a neat little hbo comedy to get up in on. I just want more freaks and geeks.

I basically love trailers of all kinds, and how they can make anything look intriguing and the possibility for something awesome to come! So i dunno, let talk trailers?

    I swear they just did an armageddon romance comedy on SNL except that was a joke, based on the 'New Years Eve'/'Valentines Day' trailers.

    Tell me about it.

    In my day, all James Cameron needed was blue. Now everyone keeps adding orange to things. Fucking savages.

    I just want Rihanna be the only one in the whole movie to say the classic line "you've sunk my battleship"

    Also I'll watch anything starring a Skarsgard

    There's a new show on National Geographic Channel I think about how people are prepared for the end of the world. Huge basements filled with rations, guns, and medicine. Anyone know the name?

    One on hand, I kind of want to see "semi-retropunk* Nazis from beyond the moon".

    *In that it's not "steampunk" per se, but old-school'y looking "future tech"

    On the other hand, I'm sure it'll be pretty terrible.

    Then again, I feel similarly about Battleship. I'm sure it'll be shit, but 90 min of shit blowing up with ~100 million in special effects budgetry will probably be at least vaguely entertaining.

    Of course, paying to see either of these probably just leads to more shit being made and fewer solid projects getting green lit, so it may be self defeating/fulfilling to do so.

    No matter what you may think about the movies, these are fantastic trailers:

    that in the battleship trailer, someone asks which guns to fire.

    That is fucking brilliant and I love it

    I can't decide if the best part of the Battleship trailer is when the little Asian boy looks at the camera with the 'WTF' face or when the blonde looks at the camera with the 'Who farted?' face.

    That Seeking a Friend trailer has Talking Heads in it

    So I guess I'll be seeing it.
