I Am Number Four

Really? It was filmed in the Burgh? I guess I'll have to give it a shot then.
 
This movie seems incredibly cliché to me. It's stuff we've all seen a dozen times before. A human-looking alien coming to Earth. He has superpowers. But he wants to be normal. Someone is after him... He's probably a prince or the chosen one.
 
As good as the first two trailers were this most recent one was awful, mostly due to the music than anything else.
 
Just read the book and I really liked it. I hope the movie captures Henri well but I have a feeling it will not.
 
I've been seeing a new tv spot. It has "Escape" by 30 Seconds to Mars in it (My fave :D )
Really liking how it looks.
 
This looks okay, nothing really exciting me so far. But it has aliens so I'm in.
 
I want Pettyfer to play Angel in an X-Men: First Class sequel.
 
I get the feeling that this is going to turn out to be one long cheesefest,and I also think that the acting seems dodgy and really melodramatic due to the trailer.
 
I'm not familiar with the book but I think this looks interesting nonetheless.

It looks almost sillier than the title but the action seems decent. I'm kind of curious.
 
the previews for this remind me of jumper, push and the covenant. i just can't see it being any better than any of those crapfests either.
 
I actually liked Jumper (too damn short though).
 
I thought Jumper was alright. I would of liked it more if the main character was the villain though.
 
I don't know why, but I really hate the title of this movie. It just sounds stupid to me. But Olyphant is in it, so I'll give it a try.

Of course, he was also in A Perfect Getaway, so he'll pretty much sign onto anything that pays.

the title makes sense if you read the book. when the 9 aliens are sent to Earth, they are sent with a charm that they can only be killed in order. When one is killed, the others experience the pain and obtain a scar. The first three are killed (i think Number Three is killed in the beginning of the film, like the book) so he knows he is the next one that can be killed so he's on the run.

if they Mogodorians try to kill one out of order, the charm backfires onto them, so for instance if they tried to shoot Number 8, the bullet would actually come back at them instead.
 
Just saw the tv spot for this on tv. Looks like Dragonball Z meets Twilight.

Perfect Description, its a really interesting concept and with Bay as a producer you can expect some awesome action scenes.
 
I think Pettyfer should just stick with modeling, but maybe he will prove me wrong.
 
he has another movie coming out this year that i want to see. i dunno if he can act or not, but we'll see i guess

Beastly is coming out March 4, which is less than a month apart from I am Number Four. Could be some positive synergy if the latter connects with audiences.
