It does look good, it just doesn't showcase the aliens, as it shouldn't. Lol.
@insertusernamehere, have you seen the original? fantastic piece of work right there. The trailers didn't seem all that great either, but they have to market the projects without showing the aliens.

Looks amazing, as I predicted it would (surprise, surprise). My only caveat is that it looks like a carbon copy of the original story, and not quite the prequel I was hoping for.

This screams prequel, but looks like a remake. whatever the case may be, I am most def looking forward to seeing this, this looks just as good, but not as great compared to the original :)

The trailer was generic. Looks like every other horror movie that has been coming out lately. It's a shame because I was really looking forward to this. Who knows though, I could be wrong.

The Dark Knight
I remember reading that this was a prequel, this looks more like a remake than anything. I hope the girl isn't the lead.
