So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

Heheheh... Old news. Think, the whole movie is filmed on blue screen. No sets were used. Even the normal living rooms and offices are all made in cgi and then put behind the actors. It looks like utter complete trash. Like a poor fanfilm... What shocks me is how the hell they got the actors into it...
I have returned... Again...

Looks interesting, very interesting indeed... wish they'd invested in an original musical score instead of ripping it from Stargate though!

I know that film companies typically use music from other sources for their trailers because they haven't finished the score for their own movie yet but did they really think that no one would recognise the StarGate theme?

I really liked the trailer when I saw it.
As for the music: huh? trailers often use musics from other movies ( for exemple, starship troopers trailer was using the Aliens music ). They needed a music, they put one, I don't think they give a damn about people recognizing it :doubt:

The problem is that it makes them look unoriginal to use such a well know tune. And that's a really bad impression to give.

yeah, but they often do that. You won't find the stargate music in the movies, that's what's important.

IIRC, the Bad Boys 'theme' has been in just about every Bruckheimer film,  ever.  Like The Rock, for example.

looks like it has some good ideas, but, from what I see it looks like there going to fall short, it's prety sad, when you can't even put together a good farce

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil
