Trailer
This was originally a Richard Kelly film, but then Alex Proyas took over. It doesn't matter though... it looks laughably bad. Oh Nicolas Cage... you so crazy.

The premise seems like it was constructed in a manatee tank.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE NUMBERS RUN OUT!
I'm mildly intrigued, however.
I'm so tired of those rubble hitting the camera shots.

I've never even heard of this before.
"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
I remember reading about this a long time ago, but as I recall the original concept involved actual drawings of the disasters, not this number pattern mystery.
I suppose I might watch it just because it's Alex Proyas.
Giving up in 2020. Who cares.

Wait... Didn't Nicolas Cage just predicted accidents and stuff in Next?
I miss Early Edition.
Me too, I love that intro. song. I didn't realize they had 4 seasons, I bet I missed a bunch. I also really liked Kyle Chandler as Bruce Baxter in the new King Kong.Quoting Grouchy (view post)

Wow, I hadn't realized that was the same actor.Quoting Qrazy (view post)
Season three of Early Edition was lackluster if I remember correctly. Show totally deserved a season five, but it gave itself some good closing episodes.

While Nic Cage is climbing my list of actors I loathe, Alex Proyas is a director I really enjoy.
I can't take Cage seriously any more. Every time that same puppy stare and softspoken "put-the-bunny-back-in-the-box" voice. Still, the hair's gotten more manageable so that's good. Nevertheless, this trailer, which reminds me of The Happening, has me intrigued a little bit. Although in the end I'm pretty sure it'll all add up to very little rather than something hair-raisingly twisty and clever.

Nic Cage will never outdo himself in Vampire's Kiss.
They SO had an opportunity to use zero in the title--KN0W1NG--but they blew it. Therefore, and only for this reason, this movie will suck.

I loved Early Edition back when it existed. However I never did see the second part of the episode where []
As for the Nic Cage movie, I don't even care what its about.

i think im excited for this
I guess it'll all depend on the resolution of the movie. It certainly does intrigue me, and it seems to lead down somewhere spine-tingling and suspenseful, but I also think there's potential for silliness and lameness like with The Happening.
That scene with the airplane was incredible however.
But I can't take Cage seriously anymore.

All i think about when I hear his name now is how crappy his performance as Dae-su would have been. Good thing that remake was put on hold.Quoting Morris Schæffer (view post)

I think Nic Cage was up for Oh Dae-Su at some point, before Spielberg-Smith were attached. I could actually see Cage pulling it off, especially if the rest of the film ended up being kind of schlocky.
A bunch of friends are way hyped to see this movie this weekend and I'm hoping my schedule allows me to accompany them.
Aside from some of the really cool disaster shot/destruction moments in the trailer, I still think this movie looks pretty lame. I won't be seeing it in theaters.
