    Tried watching the trailer again and couldn't get over how the slide-projector sounds like a movie projector but still makes the clicky slide-change noise.

    I'm gonna go watch captain kirk drive a train really fast

    spono, this is some goddamn quality.

    Although, it should probably be "captain kirk driving a train really fast while watching Training Day"

    Like this:
    What’s the alien design like?

    I started off with a guy in London named Paul Gerrad and he created something that was very Alien. Not Alien the movie, but alien in as something weird. It wasn’t a creature and it wasn’t an insect. It was just something I couldn’t explain. I loved that. It’s something you can identity with easily. We have an alien I believe in. It’s an army. There’s lieutenants, colonels, medics, and stuff like that. It was important for me to believe that they were an army.

    And really like this:
    My final question: There was a bit of talk that Battle may be post converted into 3D, is that happening?

    No, no. It’s too handheld, and you’d throw up in two minutes.

    Did the OP really just say Black Hawk Down meets Independence Day?

    So Satan really did accept my human sacrifice.

    EDIT: Just watched the trailer, and wow.

    The teaser was pretty superb.

    I'm kinda excited about having an alien invasion movie that actually focuses on fighting said invasion.


    Alien Invasion movies that focus on a depressed everyman running or hiding from aliens while simultaneously re-connecting with his family are kinda getting old.

    Or the kind where a regular person stumbles upon a vast alien conspiracy where they don't actually have to bother with a special effect budget because the aliens look just like regular people.


    To hammer this home, the alien's primary weapons are bathtubs and scorpions.

    Although, it should probably be "captain kirk driving a train really fast while watching Training Day"

    train movie end spoiler:
    there's a post credit scene, where the camera zooms in really slowly on the wreckage of the rogue train

    Wait, there are people who actually like her?

    I could understand something like "come on, she isn't that bad"

    But if you're evaluating a movie, you put the fact that she's in it in the "pro" column?
