How they explain the absence of Will Smith's character in the sequel. Mild spoiler:

Thank god they explained it

Yeah, I would have just assumed he died from getting hit by "green stuff".

[LoathedVermin72]

Love it love it love it.

[Kaius]

Meh. Destruction porn.

[LoathedVermin72]

Meh. Destruction porn.

Yeah, but Roland Emmerich does destruction porn like no one else.

[Kaius]

Oh man. I had to google it, but he's made so many disaster movies. Like, all of them. Ha.

noah is still my favorite emmerich

[Strat]

Love it love it love it.

I liked that.

[stip]

everything is so dark and smokey and hard to see. The joy of the destruction in the first one was how clean and clear it was.


This has done nothing to make me excited for it yet.

[Kaius]

Not to mention no Will Smith.

[BurtReynolds]

What a terrible trailer. I take it the opening bit was made especially for the SUper Bowl and not part of the actual movie? (please tell me thats the case, right?) Why did they do that?

you know what, forget I asked.

[LoathedVermin72]

Awwwwwww yisssss

[BurtReynolds]

Why aren't there any nice aliens?

[LoathedVermin72]

The Close Encounters aliens seemed nice.

[McParadigm]

Well if step one of your plot is "aliens come to earth," and you are an unremarkable writer, step two has to either be that the aliens are bad guys or that the humans are.

[stip]

Ehhhh, still not convinced.

I liked that landmark line, though

[tragabigzanda]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

[BurtReynolds]

i just think all aliens should be friendly

[Jorge]

Aren't we forgetting the friendliest alien?

[Jorge]

His name was Jesus.
