Looks okay, a fun action movie. I dont expect greatness out of this, just a bunch of cliche lines and lots of explosions lol

I'm going to watch the movie because I enjoy dumb ideas but I'm more looking forward to the White House Down trailer. Box office wise I think that OHF will be Mirror Mirror to White House Down's Snow White and the Huntsman.

Well yeah I mean Tatum is coming off the biggest year of his life. Don't doubt the Freeman draw though.

Anything where Butler tries an American accent is a recipe for disaster.

dude love · 01-22-2013, 07:50 PM

That's the most hilarious trailer I've seen in a long ass time. It would've been better if Steven Seagal where playing the lead.

Eddie Dean · 01-22-2013, 07:57 PM

It looks like the trailer for a live action McBain movie. Which is awesome.

But for the record, Butler >>>>>>> Tatum. And I kinda like Tatum.

Nah not the lead, I would put him in the opening scene where he gets killed off.

dude love · 01-22-2013, 08:09 PM

Or even better, as one of the Koreans!

Butler might be a really cool dude for all I know but I mostly loathe him as an actor. He is cheesy, not a very good actor and gives off a rapey/sleezy vibe. I never understood the buzz on him during the 300 craze because I hated everything about 300.

Agreed, I think it's a pretty effective poster.

Firstly we better get a montage of him clipping on lots of weapons, the 80's demands it!

15 years and 150lbs ago this would have been Under Siege 3.

I don't care much for him as an actor either but rapey/sleazy vibe?

Olympus Under Siege.

Steven Seagal as White House Chef Casey Ryback
Harrison Ford as President James Marshall

Actually, the reason we never got Under Siege 3 was some kind of rights issues between Warners and Regency, by the time those got cleared up The Sensei was already in DTV land and helping himself to the buffet (He's actually back in the shape he was in Exit Wounds now).

samsnee · 01-22-2013, 08:46 PM

Personally think they should have set it in the Capitol but no one would really care if Congress gets blown up.

DarkSovereignty · 01-22-2013, 09:25 PM

People would probably be cheering the terrorists on

antonydelfini · 01-22-2013, 11:28 PM

Awesome trailer. Feels like a 90's action movie. Butler seems to be in his element. The plane CGI should be improved. He should focus more on action than rom-com.

The more I think about this movie, the more I wish Nicolas Cage was in it instead!

Hush · 01-23-2013, 08:45 AM

He would be too busy looking for American treasures while he was supposed to be saving the president.

What are you talking about? I meant Cage playing the North Korean terrorist!

Spoiler!!! Click to Read!:

Kane52630 · 01-23-2013, 10:30 AM

Nicolas Cage needs to be in a lot of things. It's the Cage effect.

Pink Ranger · 01-23-2013, 10:38 AM

"Thanks for saving the President and the First Family! What are you going to do next?"

** Cage turns and looks directly into the camera. **

"I'm going to Iran to steal their nuclear bomb."

The use of colonnades in architecture was heavily used by the Greeks and I thought that the White House facade was inspired by this style. It is just an assumption.

Olympus has fallen? Did Kratos have anything to do with it?

Visceral · 01-23-2013, 11:40 AM

Cage could play the terrorists and the president
