thought the movie looked terrible...but i guess i will have to go check it out now.
as for billy bob being in that role. i think he will do good. he did well in a serious role in armageddon.
i though it was okay. i agree about it being predictable though. like it reminded me of that american treasure movie or whatever, it just kept going on and on and its like OKAY i get the fact that the thing can do whatever it wants now why dont you just start fucking shooting shit.
when i first saw the previews i was like this movie is gonna suck so much, and even when people described it to me i thought it was dumb. but it was really well put together i thought and i actually left the theater glad i saw it.
