Trailer . Delete if thread has already been created.

Wow. All I was thinking while watching that was, "pull up, pull up."

Saw the trailer last night and had the same thoughts.

Which made me decide not to see it. It's just so...forced.

I'm pretty sure that this movie will vie for the worst Budget:Quality ratio of all time.

oooo i love those kind of bad movies!

Then you're in for THE RIDE OF YOUR LIFE!

wow, surprised you guys didnt like the preview, your computer doesnt do the preview justice. Watched it on the 60 inch HD tv (not bragging, not even my tv) looked AWESOME.

...

Interesting. I've always been kind of curious to see what it would look like if Hollywood made a big budge disaster movie with a simple plot and just concentrated on FX and pedestrian emotional manipulation. Could be pretty cool.

It looks like something that honestly would have been the coolest ride at Disney's MGM Studios like eleven years ago.

...

Oh it's all eye candy. But the suspension of disbelief required will be massive. Like a twin engine plane flying level at 300 feet while 500 ft. skyscrapers collapse like dominoes all around it. It's a like sequel to Day After Tomorrow.


yep. it's got theme park ride written all over it.

You should go see it when it comes out then come back here after and ask our opinion on whether or not you should go see it.

Better build that thing quick, only 3 years left.

I saw the preview last night and it looks pretty good in a big budget scifi special effects kinda way.

that was (and still is) tower of terror

trying a little too hard.... and someone else did that joke already... try again?

No offense, but if you wanted to see the movie after watching that trailer, I hate you. No offense.

Oh, I dunno. Did you see the size of that donut?

This movie looks terrible.

You're just worried it might be true.

Hope you hav everything in order...oh you do, nevermind

Fuck you all, I jizzed my pants while I was watching the trailer at the movies last night.

What was it that you found so exciting about the movie? Was it the enthralling plot? The tight acting? The thrilling "car being chased by land falling into water" scene? The other "car being chased by land falling into land falling into water" scene? The "plane being chased by buildings falling into water" scene? The "stuff blowing up for unknown reasons" scene?

There's just so much to choose from!

Another global warming film?

Holy fucking shit that's almost unbelievably retarded. Is this movie a comedy? I honestly think it might be. The way that whole 'getting chased by land' scene went was light-hearted and over-the-top-ridiculous. John fucking Cusack? Seriously, if this movie is a comedy then it will be amazing. I don't think it is though.

That took no effort.

No, I was the first to make that joke in here.

No need to try again. My post served its purpose.

Armageddon has to be the standard-bearer of that class, right?



I think Mythbusters needs to do an episode about this. I need to know if you can outrun an earthquake in your car.

Yes, Joseph, you can outrun an earthquake in your car.

That's what I thought.

I asked the question to somebody else and he was all like, "Dude, seismic waves can travel up to 15,000 mph!"

But I just laughed at him. I said earthquakes, not waterquakes! LOL!

LOL of course you can outrun an earthquake if you're in a car. Come on guys. Land can only fall into the ocean at the speed of gravity, which is 32 ft/s^2, and because the land's not falling very far it can't keep speeding up. Like, the land is all connected so it's gonna fall a lot like dominos, and at the rate of 32 ft/s, which is only about 22 mph. Even a limo can outrun that. Hope that clears it up.

Dont imagine it as an earthquake.... imagine it as the two Techtonic plates that "connect/grind" under California. One plate the Pacific plate the other the North American plate. Every year the plates grind centimeters apart, a very slow pace for humans, but an extremely fast pace for the earth. but at any given time one big slide, usually the size of less then a foot can cause a massive earth quake. so assuming that they only move centimeters a year, it is surely in the realm of possibility that they can move slower then a car.... even a limo..... also, where that scene takes place, LA i think, is DIRECTLY above where both plates meet, the fault line is almost right under the city....

possible-yes
pobable-no (obv)

It was the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen on film, if it was meant to be not-joking. I really think this movie is going to turn out to be a parody of disaster movies. It just wasn't a phenomenon that one could outrun like that. The entire city crumbles into the ocean, except for the insanely narrow path that their car follows. The land then presumably stops chasing them for 5 or 10 minutes so they can prep and board an airplane and get it out to the runway. It (the wave of disappearing land) then continues chasing them as the plane magically takes off, but then the entire world blows up anyways so who cares.

I'm telling you, it's a comedy.

I've seen the trailer twice at the movies and all I can say is that I am disappointed in John Cusack. Did he get married or have kids or something to where he just needs money?

...



Or, at least a better comedy than action flick.

I'm really curious to find out why the plane had to keep flying so low to the ground (between falling buildings) instead of just going above it. I'm sure there's a plausible explanation.



As hard as it is to believe, directors don't seem to be throwing big-budget movie leads at Cusack left and right. You take what you can get.

I really really want to see this now, if for nothing else, to spite Speedz.

no no no, you're not getting it. the buildings were falling up.

Hey, it's your money.



Ah, like the land where people throw ducks at balloons and nothing is as it seems.

Haha, what a craaazy land!


*puts the duck down*



I'll probably sees this on DVD because it has to be good for some laughs, right?

This gave me a hearty chuckle.

Both of these posts are funny.

I think paying to see this movie is like paying to have shit smeared on yuor face like peanut butter by a Hollywood producer (you know who you are) who is laughing uncontrollably while he watches his bank account skyrocket. "AHAHAHAHAAAA...Who needs prestige films???!!! AHAHAHAAAAAA!!!"

THIS MOVIE LOOKS GAY I KNOW RIGHT YEAH BRODUDE

YEAH BRO YEAH BRO I'M REWATCHIN ANTONIONI'S ENTIRE OEUVRE BECAUSE THAT TRAILER WAS SO BUNK DUDE IT LEFT A BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH BRO SOMEONE PUT ON A WOMAN UNDER THE INFLUENCE RIGHT QUICK 'FORE I START VOMITIN BRO

I forgot about my ulterior motive behind seeing this.




Ha! No it wasn't. My friend paid. Of course, I spent almost $500 on him this weekend, but I didn't shell out the 6 bucks for this bad boy.



It was worse than any of you imagined. My buddy who loves terrible big budget movies just for special effects, even he thought this was bad. They literally almost die, everywhere they go, the just beat the earth destroying them at ever point of their journey. They also fly under building multiple times.

Saw it last night.

It was fantastic.*





* By fantastic I mean one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

sigh so disapointed over the reviews of this.. probly wont even go see it now movie has so much potential how the fk you going to make it pg-13 tho ?? come fukcing on !! i really really wish this lived up to the hype but doesnt sound like it .

...

USS JFK sank at sea.

What!?! How?!?! Did the head explode?

...

This movie was very pro-black.

The producers really screwed up by not having the cause be global warming. It woulda ensured multiple oscars.

You should have made that decision by seeing the trailer.
