The Day After Tomorrow

Is anybody really wanting to see this movie? What do you think of it? It looks quite good, so I'll probably go and see it, but I'm not sure at the moment.

Oh and our very own Bilbo Baggins is in it, although I think he'll be wearing shoes this time, I guess he'll be doing alot of running from whatever Mother Nature is throwing at them.

From what I've seen of it on trailers it looks quite good. With New York yet again being trashed by some horrendous happening.
Counting Deep Impact, Armageddon, Godzilla and King Kong as the others.

I'm going to see it. I'd love to see the world come to an end yet another time in the movies. I knew they'd eventually make a film like this about how nature 'hits back' because of mankind's global warming and stuff. I just hope it's good and that it's more than just special effects, even if that seems rather unlikely judging from the trailers.

I just finished reading the book. Very interesting. And I didn't know Ian Holm was in it! I haven't even seen the trailer. I'm not sure how good it'll be but I love storms! As long as it has Ok acting and few cheesy lines, I think it'll be quite good.

Is this the one from the makers of Independence Day? If so, BLARHG.

I want to see this one, I love Jake Gyllenhaal's acting, he is always good in his films.
I hope that it is as good as it seems.
And I do want to see the special effects they use for the snow & ice, I think overall it will be an excelent one.

Too true! I was thinking the same thing. Very nice, Jonathan.

Well, it looks like one of those relaxing action/drama movies that I wouldnt mind watching through. See em all, might as well see another right? And who knows, with all the sucky movies coming out, this one might not be half bad. Van Helsing looked good at first, but it got bad reviews etc...same for Hellboy.

True, True...
I have heard bad reviews for hellboy & van helsing, along with many others, but I have hope for TDATomarrow.

What's with all the half-assed story lines these days?
The work they do on their movies is pointless. I cant understand why all new releases suck.

If it comes to the free on-campus movie in the fall, I might see it. I'm not going to pay any money to see it. The effects look cool though.

Will be seeing it for two reasons:

1. I want to see if Roland Emmerich has finally grown up a bit, and

2. While I don't normally see movies for actors and actresses, Emmy Rossum is an exception, mostly because I want to get a feel for her acting (aside from the few minutes she has in Mystic River before I see her as Christine in The Phantom of the Opera.

Though the movie doesn't look particulary good (apart from the effects) I'll probably see it, if for nothing else but to see the world end.

I've never used the term myself, but I'm pretty sure it means that it's one of those movies that you just zone out and eat your popcorn. Mindless summer action fare...
