“This is not a war any more than there’s a war
between men and maggots. This is an extermination.”

Starting now.

Where is everyone? Does no one respect haiku anymore? :rolleyes:

Morgan Freeman voice-over. Where have I heard this dialogue before? :stuck_out_tongue:

It’s hard not to think of him as the voice of God now.

…in his infinite wisdom…

I was unable to procure a copy of the new version. I’m gonna go curl up with my book. Night, all!

Did Steven forget to check the lighting for these shots?

This movie must have hired every midget actor they could find, considering that Tom Cruise is the tallest person we’ve seen onscreen so far. :slight_smile:

Good night, Rach.

“I am no man.”

Not with that bun in yo oven.

Movie magic.

Yankees / Red Sox.

Really laying on the confrontation between characters a little thick.

Ah. Weekends with dad.

The actor playing Robbie is going to be Goku in the live action Dragonball Z movie. Still not sure how I feel about that.

Dakota is a natural. First time I saw her was ‘Taken’. She’s amazing.

“He took your car and left.”

Oh no, he didn’t!

Yeah, definitely. Not really clear on how any of this is supposed to matter after the aliens attack. If anything, it makes us dislike them and not care whether they live or die. :frowning:

Like deer in headlights.

Absolutely. Still, she’s creepy as hell. Far more adult than a kid should ever be.

I usually hesitate to use the phrase, but she’s definitely an “old soul”.

I think that was the point. Steven had already done likable characters.

Except dumber.

Oh, and that lightning thing? Total lie.

Lightning hits the same place all the time.
