I like Gary and Book of Eli but this looks bad. I would say it was aimed at the family crowd but I don't know anyone that would bring their kids to a movie where everything is trying to kill the new Fresh Prince.
 
you saying that because of boring ass tom cruise, or the plot? granted it's probably the bias i have against the lead actor. can't stand him anymore. soundtrack will be really good at least

edit: not feeling the plot either. i think it will be a rental for the visuals and music..like the last film by the director haha
 
I like survival journey movies so ill keep an open mind with this one. Going by the trailer though it looks kinda bad. It's like hunger games on avatar world. The "you too Xtreme" to be a ranger is cliche and when jr is being hunted by a ping and will drops the "it found you" line wtf? Sounds like they suffer from speech impediments too.

And there is a twist im sure of it. The original trailer it shows jayden running away from sentry bots with a bunch of other humans. You can still catch a split second snippet of it in this trailer.
 
I actually had no idea that it was going to be in IMAX until I saw it in the trailer - that's pretty cool! Hopefully my local IMAX theater will be showing it.
 
Looks like they opted for the budget version of CGI.

The animals stampeding at the ~2:12 mark in the clip are moving about as realistically as rocking horses.

Ugh.
 
The twist is that the planet is actually the solar system, Will Smith is the Earth, and Jaden is the Moon. The asteroid that kills the dinosaurs is a bullet that is shot by the enemy, named Kuiper.
 
I want to be so excited as I love the premise and Will Smith usually makes any movie watchable but I know Shamalot will find some way to fuck it up. His last few movies have been total misses.

I have been told by videophiles that CGI intended for Imax will often look like shit in compressed youtube videos.

So, if that is true, please bear it in mind.
 
Will Smith needs to be banned from using CGI in any of his movies.

Irobot....cgi sucked
I Am Legend ....cgi sucked
Earf...apparently mammal CGI sucks


Not watching this.

HITCH seems so long ago.
 
I love the art direction, it looks beautiful. And the set up sounds cool. But if I'm honest, the dialogue sounded kind of corny.

But then again, I'm not being paid by a movie studio to write movies. Fair play Gary, it looks like a fun movie.
 
What is the music that plays at the beginning of the trailer? Sounds familiar.

edit: already answered heh. :P

Trailer was okay. It looks more interesting than Oblivion at least.
