bleh Michelle Rodriguez....

Movie looks cool though.

[KapitanTutan]

bleh Michelle Rodriguez....

whats wrong with michelle rodriguez?

i would like to penetrate that bitch tbh

[CubanSucks]

I'm definitely gonna see it, unless they ruin it for me using horrible cheesy commercials like Skyline did. The song made me wanna punch through my screen. And I'm getting SO fucking sick of Michelle Rodriguez in these woman soldier bull dike roles. She's not that hot and she's annoying at trying to sound tough

You'll understand once you get laid.

Daaaayuuuummmm, take it easy!!!!!!

:wow

One step higher on that insult and it might be ban worthy.

[Bo Malette]

I love balls in my mouth!



I'm pretty sure you should put this as your new avatar. It'd most accurately depict you.

Skyline redux?

hopefully the ending is better....

Do these studios just copy each other?

Antz/A Bugs Life

Deep Impact/Armaggeddon

and countless other pairs....

[MannyIsGod]

Looks bad ass.

1 studio fast tracks a movie to try and get free pub from the other movie

[Fpoonsie]

Wow, that looks pretty flippin' sweet...

[ace3g]

actually Battle: LA was started before Skyline; and some of the people that worked on the FX also worked on Skyline. There is an article, stating that the people from Battle: LA are suing Skyline for copying some of their story and designs.

Oh and on one of the movie forums I belong to, someone got to see a early screening of this movie a few months back and said it was really good and the acting was good as well. The person said it is basically: Black Hawk Down meets District 9 and that is good enough for me.

Trust me this will be nothing like Skyline

[CubanSucks]

Also, Skyline's cast was such an obvious "let's get as many young good looking people as possible". I mean seriously, Turk from Scrubs? And besides the UBER typecast Michelle Rodriguez, this cast looks pretty legit

[CubanSucks]

Wow, has anyone else taken the time to see this movie's credits? This is only the writers third film (1 was a tv movie) and the director also has 3 films all of them shitty horror movies

Every good director needs a start. Spielberg started off with a TV movie and a comedy. James Cameron did Piranha 2 before hitting it big.

I got some goosebumps at the beginning but by the end I couldn't help but wonder why I'd go see this. The retarded song that starts halfway through doesn't really help either

The little robot song? Yeah.......not a good choice of music as it really killed the mood. Hard.

[Sense]

I don't know why you guys are whining about the "robotic" song.. I think it's pretty kick ass and adds an eerie effect to it.

I definitely want to watch it..

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Wow, looks pretty awesome

I thought it was pretentious. They tried too hard

[METALMiKE]

I'd go see it. Hopefully its much better than Skyline.

that song reminds me of Portal

[oh crap]

meh

[TE]

This movie, tbqfh (no joke), looks like a fucking piece of pure gold.


Looks, fucking, awesome.

[benefactor]

Happy birthday to me.

[BlairForceDejuan]

Movie looks good and the robot song was used perfectly in the first trailer.

[lefty]

Is the movie somewhat based on the real L.A Battle from 1942 ?

[benefactor]

Anyone go see it yet? I'm gonna catch it tomorrow afternoon.

[jeebus]

I saw it. Compared to skylike, this movie was worlds better. Lots of action, a lot of it was over the top but hey, we go to movies to be entertained, no? I'm thinking there will be a lot of mixed reviews about the ending....

[benefactor]

Critics reviews have been mixed. In the mold of The Expendables, I don't care too much about the story with this one. As long as it kicks a lot of ass that's all that matters to me.

[jeebus]

Exactly. Who goes to an action movie to see some drama? Explosions, big guns and general awesomeness is all I'm expecting.

Skyline was alright but it ended abruptly.

[MannyIsGod]

Skyline was so bad its not even funny. I can't agree that it was anywhere near alright.

I have been looking forward to this, however.

[desflood]

Skyline was so bad its not even funny.

Actually, Skyline was so bad that it was funny.

[Jacob1983]

I saw it last night at 12:01am and I liked it. I do think it might have been better and more violent if it had been rated R. Aaron Eckhart was a BAMF in the movie. I thought the aliens were interesting because they didn't really use the stereotypical alien weapons and they were smart.

[4>0rings]

Actually, Skyline was so bad that it was funny.
Yes, the whole theater I was as was laughing at the ending, it wasn't supposed to be a comedic ending. :lol

Skyline was pure, hot garbage.

I'm a sucker for any alien invasion movie so defenitley going to rip this movie.

That's true, I did like that about the aliens. Using cover, bringing out heavy weapons when out matched, taking care of their wounded. I did like that bit and I agree about Eckhart, dude was hardcore. And I'm glad Michelle Rodriguez didn't play the super hardcore chick like always; she kinda toned it down.

[Jacob1983]

If this happened in real life, would Earth have a chance? Another cool thing about the aliens is that they used drones.

No.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

can't wait for this one

it better not disappoint

michelle rodriguez has been annoying to me ever since blue crush, but i have to admit she is pretty good at what she does

[benefactor]

Headed to see it at 3:30. I will observe and report.

[jag]

I saw it last night and thought it was really cheesy. In most of the scenes that are supposed to be dramatic, or even sad, I just felt like laughing. I can see why it's got a 32% on Rotten Tomatoes.

[benefactor]

Just got back. They tried too hard with the drama. If you are going to be dramatic then cast decent actors. If you are going to have a shoot 'em up then just blow it all up and call it a day. They should have left all forced back story with the staff sgt. out of it.

That said, it's worth going to see on the big screen for the war scenes. The CG was integrated nicely and the fighting was intense.

6.5/10

That's about what I gave it too. I couldn't have cared less for the "little marine" and his dad bit. After they got back to the FOB, I was begging to get back to the action but instead had to listen to a fuckin speech.

[Sisk]

If this happened in real life, would Earth have a chance?

No.

[fraga]

Saw it last night...I actually thought it doesn't deserve all the negative feedback critics are giving it...the battle scenes were pretty damn cool...the dramatic scenes were pretty good...I mean not Oscar worthy...but good...overall I would give it a 7.5-8 out of 10...what was funny was...I was sitting one row behind those D-box seats...those people were being thrown around like crazy...so I could actually feel it too...

[BlackSwordsMan]

michelle rodriquez show any tits?

8/10


Movie was decent. Considering how bad movies have been these last couple of years. This movie is pretty good.


Too much drama though. That's what kills it.

If anything, if you were to infuse Indepedence Day and Black Hawk Down, you would get this movie. Not bad.
