Hm. He's done Close Encounters and E.T. He hasn't done a movie involving aliens in more than twenty years.
And besides Aliens and Predator, I can't think of a half decent alien film since E.T. in '82. Now I didn't mean that his other films were bad (far, far, far from it) just that he is the best in Hollywood at making alien invasion/encounter films. I guess the " Steven's back. Aliens are what he does best." part was misleading. I meant in the genre he is the best.

I'm not on 56k out of freakin' choice! I used to have broadband, but I was banned from it for eternity by my ol' ISP. Nobody else offers broadband around here that I can find...

Anyway, do you have a size on the big version or no? I hate small versions...

Wow, first time i've heard someone getting banned for his ISP. What was the reason?

Large = 18MB

what am I seeing here?


that was my initial reaction.

best i can tell is that a martian multilegged vehicle(think spider-like) is attacking a ferry boat. the right arm looks to be a big gun/cannon?

anyone else can help?

Very talented little girl. Her acting was amazing in Man On Fire.

The kid who plays Cruise's son is good friends with my best friend. Apparently Cruise demanded he get the role after seeing his tape. Fucking bastard is getting 1 million for the role.

This movie's going to be a hell of a ride. I'm so glad that Spielberg has come back to do an alien flick. Close Encounters and ET were just too damned good for him to leave the genre.

Nope, it's been confirmed by the producer that
they aren't Martians
, which, frankly, makes sene to me. The other bit is, I hope, BS, though I guess it could be real....
The rumor is that the aliens are from another dimension or something in this version.

That gets a big Meh from me... too jaded by disaster films, I guess.

Also, please stop abusing Latin singing for movie trailers.

GOOSEBUMPS!

Long time ago I got goosebumps from a trailer.. Must have been the first teaser for Phantom Menace.

it seems to me that:

they might come from the center of the earth

Could this be the unofficial sequel to The Core the world has been waiting for?

As for the
being from another dimension instead of Mars
thing, I suppose I'd prefer that. Even if it's not faithful to the original story, who cares? It's more believable IMO.

Dakota Fanning reminds me of that annoyingly precocious girl actress that was in 'The Philadelphia Story' and 'meet me in st. louis'.

And why are the roads just falling over in the trailer? Did they leave out something?

Which might substantiate the alternate dimension theory. Maybe also why they dont see any aliens.

I quite like the idea of Parallel Dimension aliens. Kinda of like From Beyond. Monsters that are standing around you right now, desperately trying to get at you..probing...attempting to find a way that can suddenly grab you, yet your totally oblivious to them.

Hang out with Steve.

The text of the trailer says "The last war on Earth won't be started by humans."

will totally Facebook friend you! *giggle* *LOL*
I'm pretty psyched for this film but...what exactly is Tom Cruise gonna do? I never heard the original story. He's no super human or important government/military leader, so I don't get why he's so intrical to the whole invasion.

As for the "enemies", that's really up in the air IMO. I don't realyl know how a bridge can just randomly explode like that. I'm just gonna go with underground beings for now...

This teaser Trailer is much better than previous advertisements though.

IIRC, he's just there. We see the invasion from his eye kinda.
