The trailer for Terminator:Salvation made it seem like the movie might turn out really good

Maybe the aliens actually won the war and is loving with his mind and making him snuff out the survivors of the human race unknowingly :smugdog:

My understanding is that there were several months, even years, between the initial attacks. Also I'm not sure why you expected to get all that back story from the trailer, or why you really care about the logistics of constructing a giant robot warrior.

Decades more likely. Del Toro revealed that the child we see early on in the trailer is the Asian pilot in the past when the monsters first attacked. Since she's an adult during the "current" events in the trailer humanity must have been fighting the Kaijus for a very long time

I have been desensitised towards movie violence because nothing in that trailer grossed me out. Though that girl playing the Deadite is doing a really good job and the movie looks like fun so I'll probably go watch it

The trailer was just a bunch of random footage. The cinematography looked good in a few shots but it wasn't very intruiging beyond that

Was it ever explained why humanity had abandoned Earth for several miillenia, and why seemingly every species on the planet transformed into demon monster killing machines since they've been gone?

Judging from the new trailer it seems to be weather related. There's a short scene where you see the weather change almost instantly

Maybe they screwed up the the planet so it wasn't feasible for humans to remain there and then the survivors all left while the animals left on Earth evolved into beastlier versions of themselves to survive :haw:

It does look like a bit of a retread of Pitch Black but I kind of loved Pitch Black so I'm not sure I'm bothered by this. I'm curious to see what the Necromongers roles are in this though. I know Urban is in it but I didn't spot him in the trailer, only some generic Necromonger guy

Their movement looks like really bad CGI. Everything appears to be moving at non-natural speeds, like a video running slightly too fast, especially for zero gravity. It's comical how much they ignore the impact small movements in zero gravity make.

I agree. The CGI isn't bad but the animation isn't completely natural. The rest of the spectacle made up for it though

Maybe he starts out being very human but then they keep reprogramming him until he's basically just a robot. Then he fights this somehow and at the end of the movie he's regained some of himself again

The way he spoke in parts of the trailer made it seem he was very human still, compared to the original robocop

Yeah I didn't really mind the footage, though I had a hard time understanding what the story was going to be (some sort of time travel shenanigans? Why can they even travel through time???). Worst though was the actual editing of the trailer. Like the poster above said, that cut around 1:25 is laughable

I'm not a fan of any of the spiderman movies but I'm curious about this one because of the villains. Rhino by Paul Giamatti and Electro by Jamie Foxx will be fun I think
