that was indians versus aliens

1) I thought I saw indians in a trailer
2) protagonist gets abducted, gets alien weapon which he uses to bring down aliens
3) abductions look VERY similar to how Prey portrayed them in the intro level
4) protagonist meets strange woman who has a mysterious past

you guys might enjoy this: Painting the Enterprise


quote:

My artwork has always been 'dimensional'---trying to fool the eye on a two-dimensional surface...now I was confronted with the real thing and it was a very expensive, one-off, custom-built Real Thing worth 350 grand that was the centerpiece of the whole movie in the bargain. So it was really worth millions.

no, I'm objecting to there being literally nothing else discernible about the movie except it's new-age marketing.

What new-age marketing? All I've seen are trailers and those new things where they put the logo of the movie on the screen during an entirely different movie.

well, in my opinion, this kind of movie, along with snakes on a plane and other monkey cheese bullshit, isn't selling a movie, but is selling membership to a club that gets the in-joke. They made a comic and artificially inflated it's "cult" popularity by literally giving it away.

Now, I don't have a problem with this as a business venture. It's a great way to make money. But to go and buy a ticket to this movie, knowing it's likely a dumb piece of poo poo without anything beyond the packaging and ignore actual sci-fi releases in the sci fi thread is a bit disappointing.

except this movie has daniel craig, harrison ford, sam rockwell and olivia wilde and its directed by jon favreau who made two of the better super hero movies of recent times and its also written by the guys who wrote the newest star trek movie, so it really does have a good amount goin for it in terms of being an enjoyable summer blockbuster action movie.

also snakes on a plane is definiteyl a much more absurd title than something thats a play on a classic dichotomy

For this movie to be good they will have to deviate from the source material hugely. The comic sucks.
