- hollywoodphony, on 07/03/2008, -3/+166Finally, a role where Keanu Reeves can just be himself.
- shibbz, on 07/03/2008, -6/+115The original was not really a movie about a large scale alien invasion. Looks like Hollywood is ruining another classic.
- raybury, on 07/05/2008, -0/+98From the classic 1951 (non-*****) version, Klaatu's speech:
I am leaving soon and you'll forgive me if I speak bluntly. The universe grows smaller every day and the threat of aggression by any group anywhere can no longer be tolerated. There must be security for all or no one is secure. Now this does not mean giving up any freedom, except the freedom to act irresponsibly. Your ancestors knew this when they made laws to govern themselves and hired policemen to enforce them. We, of the other planets, have long accepted this principle. We have an organization for the mutual protection of all planets and for the complete elimination of aggression. The test of any such higher authority is, of course, the police force that supports it. For our policemen we created a race of robots. Their function is to patrol the planets in spaceships like this one and preserve the peace. In matters of aggression we have given them absolute power over us. This power cannot be revoked. At the first signs of violence they act automatically against the aggressor. The penalty for provoking their action is too terrible to risk. The result is we live in peace without arms or armies, secure in the knowledge that we are free from aggression and war, free to pursue more profitable enterprises. Now, we do not pretend to have achieved perfection, but we do have a system, and it works. I came here to give you these facts. It is no concern of ours how you run your own planet, but if you threaten to extend your violence, this Earth of yours will be reduced to a burned-out cinder. Your choice is simple: join us and live in peace, or pursue your present course and face obliteration. We shall be waiting for your answer. The decision rests with you. - inactive, on 07/05/2008, -3/+99If the earth dies you die. If you die, the earth survives....EEEEEEEEEXCELENT *Air Guitar*
- hhswatkins, on 07/05/2008, -3/+65Looks like War of the Worlds and Independence Day made into one movie
- jamez, on 07/03/2008, -2/+55Klatu, Bara... *cough* *mumble*...
- inactive, on 07/04/2008, -8/+60FF: Rise of the Silver Surfer called, they want their crappy "Galactus Cloud" back.
- iPirate, on 07/05/2008, -3/+44Too bad Jennifer Connelly no longer has the "major boobage."
- tenabobina, on 07/05/2008, -4/+42The original is one of the greatest sci-fi movies ever...
- Rally603, on 07/05/2008, -3/+39I never understood how anyone could 'ruin' a classic simply by creating a poor adaptation of it. It's not like they're completely replacing every trace of the old version with this cheesy hollywood-ized crap. The classic version still exists, in all its 50+ year old glory, for anyone to watch and enjoy whenever they feel like it.
Sure, it's a missed opportunity to see a great story played out using today's special effects. But, then again, if I cared that much about missed opportunities I'd probably stop masturbating. - glbtrottr, on 07/03/2008, -1/+36is Will Smith's son the little boy?
- iPirate, on 07/05/2008, -3/+35...he already had that with Neo.
- SundayBrunch, on 07/05/2008, -3/+34I just hope they have a black guy and a thoughtful jew save the day.
- p8ntballguy, on 07/05/2008, -1/+29I suppose if hes human, his body would emit the same reactions if he is lying....he did say he was in a human body.
- PhoenixAvatar2, on 07/05/2008, -3/+30Using a polygraph on an alien?
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -0/+26Kill that bitch then!
- ZenMojo, on 07/05/2008, -0/+25And Ted "Theodore" Logan.
- Pillage, on 07/05/2008, -0/+23To serve human...it's a cookbook! er. wait..wrong one
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -0/+22I liked the non-interference clause, though. He's essentially saying, "Go ahead and play out the genocide thing as much as you like on your home planet, but we'll hobo stab you if you bring the fight outside of your atmosphere."
- tenabobina, on 07/05/2008, -0/+22Klaatu barada nikto!
- FurryToaster, on 07/05/2008, -1/+23Ugh. Only a matter of time until Star Wars is remade.
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -0/+20Whoa....
- serpentor, on 07/05/2008, -0/+19I really hope this has an uphappy (realistic) ending, i.e. the total destruction of the human race.
None of that gimpy War of the Worlds/Signs/ID4 "yay we win by doing nothing, a technologically superior alien force was stopped by our air/water/MacBook!" nonsense. :) - SilentRamble42, on 07/05/2008, -5/+23Oh look, they're going to kill another classic.
- ZenMojo, on 07/05/2008, -0/+18Be "excellent" to each other.
- Akraz, on 07/05/2008, -1/+18OMG the original black and white was one of my favourite movies
- WorldLeader, on 07/05/2008, -0/+15I think the "you die" is referring to humanity as a whole.
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -1/+16For those that didn't know, remake.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0043456/ - anagoge, on 07/05/2008, -1/+16Now that's what ahm talkin' about!
- Callidus, on 07/05/2008, -1/+15NSFW
http://files.blogter.hu/user_files/4412/stars/jenn ... - blanketfury, on 07/05/2008, -0/+14It's humanity's way of showing how technologically advanced we are

- flamyngo, on 07/05/2008, -6/+19so.... the monster from Lost is starring in this movie?
- Dwebtron, on 07/05/2008, -0/+12Nice finish.
- londubh, on 07/05/2008, -1/+13Keanu should have played Gort. It would have been more his speed.
- groonk, on 07/05/2008, -0/+12i did it! i said the stupid words! now send me home!
- hiroyukibatosai, on 07/05/2008, -0/+11ANOTHER REMAKE?
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -8/+19Wow!!...... were they running Vista?
- CrazyEddie041, on 07/05/2008, -0/+11Interesting... maybe this movie shows an alternative ending where the humans say "Screw you" and Gort beats the snot out of them?
- Tyrghast, on 07/05/2008, -0/+11Pedobear says too old, I say just right.
- Melodik, on 07/05/2008, -0/+11Futuristic, unique Hollywood OSs have been replaced with "ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO RUN FINDALLALIENS.EXE?"
- troubleshot, on 07/05/2008, -4/+15Another f***ing remake...
Hey Hollywood, ill stop pirating your movies when you start making original titles worthy of my $'s. - maino82, on 07/05/2008, -0/+10necktie!
- Pixelante, on 07/05/2008, -0/+10She's still eminently humpable.
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -1/+11sigh... ***** you hollywood... also they are remaking Bill & Ted, wtf man...
- inactive, on 07/05/2008, -1/+10You're a ***** Class A idiot. The original is a classic. Please gouge your brain out.
- ZenMojo, on 07/05/2008, -0/+9Gort's response:
ZAP! - Tyrghast, on 07/05/2008, -5/+14In the words of the master: Whoah.
