Skyline

[Aesop Rocks]

Nah, it's not having taste so much as it is just being pretentious.

Yeah, because stating your opinion automatically makes you come off snobby and conceited.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

No, doing that does.

 

[Dark Victory]

No, doing that does.

Wait, what? I'm going to ignore the fact that 99.9% of the people who use the word pretentious are, in fact, pretentious, but when did I ever state something along the lines of the sci-fi genre being nothing but gimmrickery? That's snobbish. Yet simply laying out my dissatisfaction with an uninspired trailer makes me some elitist? Ok...

This trailer is destroying us all.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

It's just the simple "yawn" aspect of it. It didn't add anything to the discussion other that the fact that you didn't care for the trailer. I don't care if you like the trailer or not, super cool opinion bro, it's just that that really doesn't add to anything.

No way, your avvy is. What the fun is that?

 

[xwolverine2]

You'll be there opening night just like the rest of us. That tractor beam thing in the trailer was more than a fx work, it was a metaphor.

ill be there at the walmart bin wondering how it got a theatrical release to begin with....

Alright, fair enough. That yawn's my opinion, and anyone on here can take me up on it.

Can we just bro hug?

As I said in another thread, the big loud UFO films have come to bore me. I prefer the more subtle and suspenseful ones. The GOAT being Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

 

[CelticPredator]

It's from the directors of AvP: Requiem, so you know it's good!

Yep.

[nightwing06]

Nice effects but they did borrow sounds from Transformers and that last shot looks like Unicron

How do those beams only suck up humans? Wouldn't they be sucking up cars and animals and other stuff?

Yeah Strauses can kiss my butt. Though I suppose we can thank them for making a film so terrible Fox actually had to implement quality control in their films.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Wow that trailer wasn't very good. The visuals are cool, but I'm predicting terrible writing and characters. This is the Strauss brothers after all.

 

[Monsieur Xavier]

It smells a bit like Lifeforce http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089489/

what kind of question is this when its about an alien movie?

 

[Monsieur Xavier]

Just saw the trailer :

- the police font is close to Transformers one ( like others said ) but the sound itself is more like a distorded whale scream, the real Transformer sound is nicer.
- it looks like a relaxing summer movie ( something like ID4 or 2012 ) but it will be release in December,
- the effects looks good,
- I will probably watch but not in theater.

The beam is calibrated on the resonating frequency of the human body.

Oh sure when this steals sound effects from Transformers we condemn it but when Avatar steals the Iconic T-Rex roars from Jurassic Park it's just a homage.

But yeah this looks bad.

That is a new one, never heard it before. Also no one else said Skyline TF sound was an homage.

 

[John Locke]

That's my point. People are condemning Skyline for stealing the sound but for Avatar they are paying homage to the movie not stealing the sound.

 

[Monsieur Xavier]

Error sorry my mistake but still, I've never read what you said about Avatar stealing a sound from Jurassic Park

 

[John Locke]

Yep. Here's proof:
