Olympus Has Fallen

[Bim]

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

 

[Hush]

Nobody wants to see Butler in just about anything.

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 stannis]

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]

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 stannis]

Or even better, as one of the Koreans!

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

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.

I'd see it.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Maybe they will go full ridiculous. She didn't die and comes back to have her revenge.

After plastic surgery she is the Korean bad guy!

It's a code within the film, and that's what the White House looks like...minus the fire that is. Don't be so literal lol. I think it's a cool poster, striking but evocative of the premise. I prefer that to floating photoshopped heads.

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

I expect, nay, demand, a montage sequence of Gerard assembling a cruel and awesome weapon out of household products he finds around the White House.

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

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.

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]

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

 

[DarkSovereignty]

People would probably be cheering the terrorists on

 

[antonydelfini]

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.

possibly but quality wise i think this will be better

give me fuqua over emmerich any day of the week

 

[Pink Ranger]

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

 

[Hush]

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

 

[Kane52630]

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

 

[Pink Ranger]

"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."

 

[Monsieur Xavier]

Darksovereignty: I know what WW looks like, but in that poster they tried hard to make it look like a temple from a certain mythology.

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.

 

[Godzilla2000]

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

 

[Visceral]

Cage could play the terrorists and the president

 

[Pink Ranger]

Cage could play the terrorists and the president

And the first lady.

 

[Visceral]

And the first lady.

He could be the first person in history to be nominated for both best supporting actor and best supporting actress.
