Visuals are nice. The teaser itself is generic and completely predictable, but it's pretty. Hopefully there's something to it and it doesn't just become another hyped movie to get drunk and make fun of.
All said, it's incredibly difficult to make a witty, unpredictable and innovative genre renewing/redefining teaser of 3 minutes, even if you try you face increasing risk of failing and the teaser just ending up plain bad.
If we can get action movie trailers without that fucking airhorn every couple of seconds I'll be happy.
Oh I get that and I understand we're at a point in time where there's going to be overlap between movies. But when I know exactly what's going to happen in the 3 minute trailer 5 seconds in, it makes me not want to pay attention to it anymore.
Ain't that the thing. See, I'm not as smart and I'm constantly struggling even to keep up with any plot and characters "is that his sister" -"NO, it's his wife! FFS!". When I can guess what happens it's a sign that it's too predictable. That said I kind of wondered if they'd actually kill the beast but lost a couple of ships. I might have also been occupied more by the intricacies of how the economics of such a world would work that I kind of forgot about a plot being involved
I want to know how any animal, no matter how big, can completely crush a rugged future tech vehicle in its mouth using just muscle and bone. And how it can survive the subsequent explosion with nary a scratch.
Is this the thing the Brits capture and turn into a city in a Dr Who ep? Also my room mates reaction was "SPACE DICK! WOOO!"
That's your question? Not, how the eggs of said space white whale somehow contain this rare material that lets them do FTL? It's the mythical space moby dick, your knowledge of physics has no bearing in the world of mythical creatures that are hunted on flying techno harpoon boats that for some reasoning still require the rubber barriers on the front part of the boat.
Hey, I don't know the chemical or radiological properties of this exotic matter. I do know the properties of natural muscle strength.
Eh, it's obviously one of those suspension of disbelief movies. Considering an animal that large would need wings like 3000000% larger than that just to glide, much less do the rising penis thing. It honestly reminded me of a game trailer more than a movie trailer. I'll probably go watch it though.
It would have been much more realistic if it had simply dragged the vessel down, rather than this weird "blow it up with nary a scratch" thing. Plus, it would have been waaay more ominous.
You know the muscle strength of this particular flying moby dick? How do you know it's not a silicon based life form. Have you seen the difference in a persons muscle strength when they are sleep walking to normally being awake.
Or even how dense the atmosphere is. If it's a bit denser(I'm thinking gas giant) then this could be done with less surface area. Also, I kinda want to see it, for shits and giggles.
With the size of the flying dick's wings/flippers, the atmosphere would have to be nearly as dense as water. If the atmosphere was that dense, the aircraft wouldn't be flying as fast, and the people standing on the bigger one would be blown right off. How well do you think you could stand on the deck of a submarine doing even a couple knots?
