Let’s face it, Hollywood’s attempt to turn the classic “The Day the Earth Stood Still” into another pointless, preachy movie about the environment has already turned off a lot of people. It’s bad enough that Keanu Reeves is expected to emote in this movie, but add to it the insulting nature of being preached to by a movie made on a bloated budget, by a community obsessed with its own excesses, and it almost makes you want to throw something at the screen. Having said that, here’s the first teaser poster for the movie, which claims a release date of December 2008, a year earlier than anyone had expected.
From the poster below, you pretty much know that all the things we’ve been hearing about the movie, especially that early script review, was right on. This thing is going to be hitting you over the head with a sledgehammer about saving the environment, global warming, etc.
Man, what a waste of Jennifer Connelly…
