Troy looked & felt cheap too... while we are at it. Those sad fighting scenes, forcing those poor men to awkwardly make the gladiator poses. Man, i bet they thought it was going to look so cool.

Yeah, I have no idea what they were thinking they were doing with that or Brad Pitt's Achilles. I did like Erica Bana's Hector, though.

While true, it did give me a big ol' grin to see Odysseus talk about going home.

I'm still dealing with the fact that we'll never get an Odyssey movie starring Sean Bean.

I know! I totally thought that would happen, too.

 

[dapperbandit]

Seems a bit wet to me right now.

I'm getting that clash of the titans kind of "bad feeling".

Also, what is it with trailers these days having to include an "onimous pulsing noise" which punctuates every glimpse of a scene?

Spoiler

BWAAARRRM

That noise could have been used in a trailer for the new Transformers and no one would bat an eyelid.

 

[Himynameischris]

While true, it did give me a big ol' grin to see Odysseus talk about going home.

An epic made from that story would be amazing

Anyways I'm at work so I can't see the trailer but I hope it's a good movie, I like the rock and most of this movies.

 

[Oppo]

If they wanted to be more "true" to the legend, shouldn't the movie be called Heracles, rather than Hercules? My understanding is that is more accurate to the legend.

 

[depths20XX]

"I am Herculeeessss!"

Nah dude, you're "The Rock"

 

[jelly]

That logo! Could be some energy drink.

 

[MrJollyLivesNextDoor]

Why does every trailer seem to have that same bass sound effect all the way though? Really doesn't suit this film

 

[WhereAreMahDragonz]

Yeah...I'm going to pass on this one.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

Same. Just feels off. Doesn't help that I only see Dwayne Johnson and not Hercules.

Hercules must have wanted too much money for the role.

 

[Evolved1]

Lion jumping was sweet... big lions man, awesome.

The rest was no thanks.

 

[isual]

dayum.

this movie is day 1 for sure.

early bird sons !

 

[Valtýr]

his beard looks terrible

 

[Messofanego]

This will be garbage.

 

[Cardon]

Looks dull. Will likely end up being as soulless as Wrath of the Titans was despite the attempts made at "captivating" flash through action scenes and CGI.

 

[Graphics Horse]

BANGOOOOO!

 

[hsin]

Trailer music sounds like it's from Terminator

 

[iuxion]

That narration was lame as fuck.

Are only you the legend? Or are you the truth...

BEHIND THE LEGEND?!

 

[Effect]

Trailer music sounds like it's from Terminator

This. That being said I want to see this. This looks like an actual Hercules film. Not that crap that came out a few months ago.

 

[Barzul]

I liked it.

 

[pants]

This will be garbage.

 

[Smellycat]

Nope

 

[SlipperyMoose]

I will watch this but I though this was a bad trailer. The narrator seemed like a poor choice of a voice too.

 

[commedieu]

This. That being said I want to see this. This looks like an actual Hercules film. Not that crap that came out a few months ago.

I agree, if you mean like a slightly more polished version of the TV show? I mean, if thats the intent... im all over it.

 

[Alcotholic]

That last shot in the trailer of him... Roaring? That was funny looking. Can we get a gif of that?

 

[Chavelo]

AM I GONNA FUCKING BE HERCULES?

 

[soepje]

This will be garbage.

I´m afraid you are going to be right. I'd be quite surprised if this turns out to be good.
Will probably still watch it though.

 

[Oersted]

Is Dwaynes Hercules the first not whitewashed role?

 

[CassidyIzABeast]

Hercules? I know The Rock when I see him

 

[SJRB]

A lot of yelling going on in this trailer. But looks okay, I guess. Seeing Irina Shayk was a pleasant surprise.

 

[jett]

It has a cheap look to it.

 

[PHOENIXZERO]

My reaction in its entirety.

"Well... Okay then."

Apathy could've been a Greek god I would get behind, if I cared.

 

[Adam Blue]

Looks cool. I also like the abstract 2D title font instead of everything being 3D metallic with straight lines.

They just told enough of the plot to get an idea of how it starts. And just enough to show fantasy elements. Good trailer.

 

[Enduin]

Hercules must have wanted too much money for the role.

The son of Zeus doesn't come cheap, even if there are hundreds of them.

 

[NastyBook]

"Get out of here, Lion!"

Spoiler

Watching this film.

 

[Liquidsnake]

I love it, you all say its going to suck, and then all of you will see it and say oh wow, that was so good.

 

[Ithil]

Rock looks wildly out of place.

 

[PoweredBySoy]

Meh.

Dwayne vs a bunch of slow-mo, CGI shit.

 

[spandexmonkey]

When I saw the armies I groaned. Then when they showed the beasts they pulled me back in.

 

[Ricky_R]

At least it looks better than Conan The Barbarian (2011) and The Legend of Hercules.

 

[Dysun]

Delivery of that line 'I am Hercules' was super cheesy

 

[Sickboy007]

Hit the link, BWAAAAA- close youtube.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

The big animals look cool, at least.

 

[Black Door]

When I saw the armies I groaned. Then when they showed the beasts they pulled me back in.

I want to see him punch a soldier and the 10 guys behind him explode

 

[Tannequy]

That last shot in the trailer of him... Roaring? That was funny looking. Can we get a gif of that?

 

[Loxley]

Somebody is going to 'shop Kaz's face onto that when E3 hits.

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

Everything looks like trash inbetween big animal fights. Will watch on hbo

 

[Can Crusher]

I was expecting much worse because of the font and the poster. Part where he creeps up with the lion's head was unintentionally funny.

Aside from that I'm game!

 

[funkystudent]

Rocks weirdly perfect teeth creep me out.

 

[Spike Spiegel]

Having seen the trailer now, and having owned the graphic novel this was originally based on, I find myself immediately wondering if

Spoiler

the CGI fantasy beast segments are "reenactments" of the tales being told about Hercules by others in his party, to build up his legend. Because none of those "Twelve Labors" were in the original story, which is much more down-to-earth.

If that ends up being the case, some people are going to be sorely disappointed.
