Wait? There’s a space/alien element to this movie?

Ben Ramsey May 11

That preview made this look like a comedy, and maybe this won’t be so bad, after all.

That was a very ominous “There,” with the guy pointing in close-up, and then nothing happening immediately after.

Ben Ramsey May 11

We’re only 3 minutes in, and I can already tell the dialog and acting is going to be top notch.

Ben Ramsey May 11

Your co-worker was just incinerated, and you laugh maniacally.

Ben Ramsey May 11

Is that the Millennium Falcon buried into the top of the ship?

Ben Ramsey May 11

I have “Plucky Journalist” on my #MonsterdonBingo, and this guy is anything but.

Ben Ramsey May 11

Okay. This guy might fit the definition of “plucky journalist,” but can a dude be “plucky?”

Ben Ramsey May 11

So, this thing was 50 times the size of T-rex?

So…

It was…

Half a mile long?

Ben Ramsey May 11

Once “Young Gary" gets its breath…

Ben Ramsey May 11

Those guys performed some awesome dance moves before the energy blast took them down.

Ben Ramsey May 11

“Dispose of these bodies and get back to work.”

This guy is a freaking psychopath.

Ben Ramsey May 11

Think about what’s important. You have only two options:

1. Fame and fortune
2. Obscurity

Hmm. I’d choose obscurity.

Ben Ramsey May 11

Did the journalist correct him on his pronunciation of “Pulitzer?”

Ben Ramsey May 11

“It sure as hell ain’t Russian.”

“No, sir. It’s alien.”

WHO THE FUCK WROTE THIS?!

Ben Ramsey May 11

I love how they have to put up hand-written signs on the port-o-potties to let you know they’re toilets.

Ben Ramsey May 11

The photo-journalist has a look that reminds me of a Baldwin brother (he’s not).

Ben Ramsey May 11

I have the feeling there was no script. The director just gave them a brief description of the scene, called "action," and then left the set.

Ben Ramsey May 11

“Please. Let’s go somewhere more secret” is code for, “I want to get into your pants.”

Don’t take him back to your room!

Ben Ramsey May 11

“This is different. This is apocalyptic.”

Because nothing else has ever been apocalyptic.

Ben Ramsey May 11

“More dead bodies than a Tarantino flick.”

This is 1999. They have no idea.

Ben Ramsey May 11

Did they just try to add elements from Twister to this?

Ben Ramsey May 11

This is really beyond horrible dialog.

“This can’t be happening!”

“No! This isn’t real!”

“The prophecy is fulfilled!”

“I can talk to him!”

Casting" "Hey, maybe we can pass this guy off as a Baldwin at Cannes!"

Paco Hope May 11

@ramsey It's DIE a log. The dialog is dying.
