nosweargamer Posted December 13, 2015 Report Posted December 13, 2015 My favorite movie going experience was watching the first one opening weekend. The theater crowd was so full of energy, they really made it fun. Not sure if they can recapture the magic with this one or not. Shame that Will Smith doesn't appear to be in it.

RickR Posted December 13, 2015 Report Posted December 13, 2015 My guess would be a build up of forces over 20 years, leading to an underdog fight against a return of aliens. Maybe a few surprises: aliens that have lived on Earth in secret that are helping us...or maybe offspring of human/alien lovin'
Rowsdower70 Posted December 13, 2015 Report Posted December 13, 2015 They didn't focus much on the young actors in the trailer, who were they?The movie looks fun. Great effects, enough original cast members to continue the story. I'm game, I loved the first one.

StormSurge Posted December 14, 2015 Report Posted December 14, 2015 Hopefully the campy humor returns with this too. If it tries to be serious, I don't think it will be as fun.
Bakerman Posted December 14, 2015 Report Posted December 14, 2015 It should be fun. It's rare that I get to the theaters anymore, it has to be something epic with epic special effects I must see on a bigger screen than my projector (up to 200") The new Star Wars is such an exception, and maybe this too. Pretty much Imax releases only, these days, and only a few of those. "Slugs, he created slugs?...Is this not the work of a complete incompetent?

AlamoAtari Posted December 14, 2015 Report Posted December 14, 2015 Definitely going to put this one into the Cowboys vs aliens category. Just silliness. But not quite Mars attacks level. Going to wait for it on Netflix. Probably in time for next September or October my guess.
