Anyone know of the new Cowboys and Alien's trailer?
From what I can tell, it's essentially about a bunch of foreigners invading the land of a group of people with considerably worse technology-one might call them, "Noble savages," in comparison to the foreigners-and killing them mercilessly for, presumably, their land.
XD
Giving America the finger in an extremely subtle way, and making Americans condemn themselves?
Fucking. Awesome.
(I have no idea if this is public knowledge or not. I'm just recanting what I learned from the trailer. Don't kill me for shooting a dead horse, please.)
I don't care about the fail plot, or the ripoff of Avatar (It came first, suprisingly), or the fact that this is Steven Spielbergs ninth alien thing, or even that Robert Downey Junior won't be in it because of scheduling problems.
What I like about it is that it's literally flipping we Americans off.
True, Avatar did it too, but this is doing it without the whole, "Blah blah blah humans are evil," perspective. It took me a long time to get the analogy.
Also, the main character has a gauntlet of death. I'm expecting enough explosions to give Michael Bay an orgasm.
