Wow, looks like a silly good time. It's about time Butler got back into action roles. He wasn't cutting it doing those lame chick-flicks.

Was about to post this. I agree, looks damn silly.

No sign of Roland Emmerich in sight, so I'll watch it.

Ehhhh...a bit too silly for my tastes. Reminds of 1970s film plots. If it gets good word, I'll be there.

Don't like the fact that they actually show you Ashley Judd getting killed 10 seconds into the trailer, though. WTF?

I guess it's a cameo role.

funny how there are 2 competing movies like this. the other one is with jamie foxx as the president and channing tatum as a secret service dude protecting him. think that's called white house down and it comes out in june. reminds me of how deep impact and armageddon were released the same year.

But Emmerich's version was written by the guy that wrote Fincher's Zodiac.

The fact there actually is a "Emmerich Version" makes me laugh.

Looks like Die Hard in a White House.

So basically this is Air Force One 2: Ground Assault?

A friend of mine made a funny comment:

I wonder if Angela Basset's next line (after "Oh my God") is "That is whack!"

I like Aaron Eckhart but as President that bothers me. He seems too young.

He's a year older than Pullman was for ID4.

I got nothing. I'm more confused that he's white.

He's three years younger than Obama was when he took office, and about the same age as JFK was.

I get more of a Under Siege vibe from this.

This looks fucking atrocious.

Well the Jamie Foxx/Channing Tatum is coming out too. Jamie Foxx as president? I dunno. I wish it was Jeffrey Wright. Dennis Haysbert still ranks as one of my favorite fictional presidents as well as Kevin Kline in Dave.

Morgan Freeman's Kiss The Girls co-star dies in an Along Came A Spider car wreck. Ha.

Excuse me, I won't be posting for several weeks because I'm going down to the theater and wait in line for tickets right now.

Looks pretty awesome.

Yeah, I'm kinda in on this.

It looks kinda fun, but the one thing I keep noticing is the font they used for the title looks very similar to the one Olympus the camera company uses. Made me wonder if they were paying for a chunk of the film in some way...

a lot of Washington DC landmarks getting blown up - I'm there!!!

How does trash like this get made?

Apparently this is supposed to be a very hard R.

apparently Hollywood has a lot of money to throw around.

at least it isn't a Uwe Boll movie

You mean Die Hard on a ship?

Looks like a blast. Looks very very very stupid. Fuqua plays it straight. A rarity with big action movies.
