I've been intrigued by first trailer but it didn't make up my mind on it , now this one did its a mixture between independence day and district 9 , its seems to me like a decent pop corn flick and not a huge grossing blockbuster .
enough yapping here is the new trailer

i can haz new planet !
Guess what if your sick of your life and you think your destined to something greater than this , your prayers have been answered they found a new habitable planet its only a 20 light years away , so jump in your monkey suits everyone we are going to space .
The planet, found by astronomers at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and the Carnegie Institution of Washington, is orbiting in the middle of the "habitable zone" of the red dwarf star Gliese 581, which means it could have water on its surface.
Liquid water and an atmosphere are necessary for a planet to possibly sustain life, even it it might not be a great place to live, the scientists said.
The scientists determined that the planet, which they have called Gliese 581g, has a mass three to four times that of Earth and an orbital period of just under 37 days.
Its mass indicates that it is probably a rocky planet and has enough gravity to hold on to an atmosphere, according to Steven Vogt, professor of astronomy and astrophysics at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and one of the leaders of the team that discovered the planet.
i just hope HAL isnt the flight main computer , all and all i think its always good to have a back up plan , cause we are screwing this planet.

Amazing movies that you never heard off !
Many of us to watch a movie that you saw a trailer of , or read about somewhere , yet sadly not all movies get the same publicity as major blockbusters with huge budgets , in this list im going to show you part of the greatest movies i have ever saw :
Moon (2009)
sam bell is a man responsible for providing earth with the material it need to survive to do that he have to be stationed on the moon alone for years , without human contact and only his robot friend GERTY to help him out , he starts to lose his mind and thats when it gets interesting.
why its so amazing : this movie without a doubt will test your sanity to the limit and the claustrophobic and loneliness of the moon sets the tone for this wild ride , its a one man show the whole movie you only get to see one main character , its a dangerous risk but sam rockwell pulls it off with a huge success , also the voice of kevin spacey is a nice touch .
Pi (1998)
a man who's good at math find the beauty in Pi and tries to implement it on the stock exchange market to find a pattern, to predict the future of things and have the power of knowledge .
why its so amazing : darren aronofsky's first masterpiece on our list , this movies is shot in black and white and it feels like a pure film student project , yet it has its charm and the style becomes part of the story , the character development is pretty amazing it shows how a normal man can turn crazy by his obsessions , and how it can control your life and behavior .
pan's labyrinth (2006)
a stepdaughter to a ruthless army man escapes her collapsing world to find a magical world that is filled with fairies and monsters , she must survive the trails set to her by those creatures to be their princess .
why its so amazing : EVERYTHING !! simple as that , the world that Guillermo del torro created makes tim burton's alice in wonderland look like yesterdays pizza , the creatures feel real and organic and the trails are simply bewildering and the main character does a really good job with connecting with the viewer,and the best part is Javier Navarrete's soundtrack u will hum it all day . ( youtube " una cuenta )
The Fountain (2005)
a love story thast everlasting between a dying wife and her devoted husband keen on saving her from cancer that crosses over 1000 years
why its so amazing : even the describtion is weird and it gets you thinking , this movie is darren aronofsky's sceond entry in our list and his best yet , i havent seen such an amazing work of art such as this one which lands the spot for the second greatest movie of all time in my list ( and clint mansell soundtrack trumps the one in pan's labyrinth )
Ed Wood (1994)
a down on his luck movie and plays producer try his best to get a funding to finish his never ending list of B movies and bad scripts .
why its so amazing : first off this johnny depp's finest role (jack sparrow minus the pirate clothes ) its a dark comedy so cruel and dark the jokes are on the actual lives of the cast , with some 4th wall breaking jokes ,the movie is carried out by the strong performances of johnny depp and martin landau which will make u come back and watch it over and over cause the click on the first scene together .
Sin Nombre (2009)
the story of a group of immigrants trying to get to the united states to join their families , but as always their journey is filled with immigration guards and Mexican and Guatemalan gangs .
why its so amazing : the characters are easily one of the strongest feature in this movie , you can easily connect to them and you actually care what will happen to them , its rare to see such an emotional investment in a movie character. its raw,gritty and real .
honorable mentions : young frankenstien - the machinist - ciudad de dios - american physco - dr.stranglove - following - kiss kiss bang bang - frost/nixon - la vie en rose
