BATTLE: LOS ANGELES

Here's the first theatrical trailer for Battle: Los Angeles. It's director is Jonathan Liebesman, who previously was behind Darkness Falls and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (which makes you wonder how he's still in the business).

I'll admit to enjoying this trailer; I'm a sucker for invasions flicks when done correctly. Perhaps with this, Skyline, Monsters, and the upcoming Cowboy's and Aliens, it's a sign that extraterrestrial films will push vampire laden ones to the back burner.



The real burning question is how we puny Earthlings are going to rid the world of this menace. From the looks we're getting from the trailer, we might as well be throwing rocks and them since their technology (as usual) vastly trumps ours. In Independence Day it was a computer virus; Signs, the answer was water; War of the Worlds it was, well, air. I'm throwing halitosis out there for Battle. Nothing would get rid of aliens faster than a severe case of garlic breath.
