Apocalypto Teaser

[GrayFox]

This movie is in my top 5 most anticipated films of 2006. The teaser doesn't show much, though.

Not bad, but i am not so impressed.

I first have to go to king kong, than this will be my second movie.

I watched the teaser and I still have no idea what the hell the movie was about. The end of the Aztec empire?

The name Apocalypto made me immediately roll my eyes and think this was some sort of Gibson-gone-ga-ga-with-the-Jesus end-times flick. Thankfully it isn't. However, I still don't know what to make of it.

[mikezilla]

Wow i wouldn't even watch that on the history channel.

[johnm487]

[Mazy]

Looks okay, cants say I'd want to watch it though, whatever it is

Mel should be working on Mad Max 4 and not crap like that.

Whats the story of the movie anyway?

I mean all I saw was people running from eachothers and from panthers, can't be that good.

Read that. VERY interesting read.

It's about the Mayans, and it is obviously about the end of the world...though how close to actual Mayan legend/history remains to be seen.

EDIT:

Interestingly, today is the winter solstice, the start of Winter in Northern Hemisphere and shortest day of the year. Read the article above.

Ooooooooh, so it is end-times bullshit.

(zilla edit, one picture will do this isn't eot.)

He looks like a cross between saddam and osama.

im in no rush to see this. I'm sure it will be great. Gibson has a hell of a direction style, but I'm not too fond of his stories and hidden messages.

[von*ferret]

wow what happened to mel both physicaly and mentaly

[Kosmo]

Apocalypto is a heart stopping mythic action-adventure set against the turbulent end times of the once great Mayan civilization

You know the rock, the rock in the bottom of the atlantic ocean, right in the middle of europe and america. Well, he told me that he is interested, veeeeeery interested.

Mel's career hasn't interested me one bit after Patriot.

Gibson is delving back into antiquity this time with an action picture and Disney has won a bidding war to distribute the film domestically. Gibson's company, Icon, will handle foreign territories.

Nexus at least give the source or tell us when your quoting news articles.

Anyways, interesting subject for a movie. Mel is brilliant when it comes to picking themes
