I'm surprised nobody has posted this yet (unless I've totally missed it!)

Destro Scottish
Baroness hot
Snake Eyes doing crazy Ninja stuff
Eiffel Tower being eaten by nanites

And a cool tag line: "When all else fails... we don't"
Well I'm impressed, anyway!

EDIT: Hmmmmm... maybe I should have put this in the 'news' section?

That actually looks VERY good. Love the Snake Eyes shot. Yup, one hot Baroness.

So far so good .... Im looking forward to seeing this movie, but still a little unsure ...

Im not a fan of CGI when it comes to fight scenes etc ...

I still cant believe how bad the Matrix sequels were ( in my opinion ) and still everyone praises them !! Am I the only one that thought the CGI was terrible when Neo was fighting Smith in the basketball court ? one minute its live action and the next minute ... its like watching a cartoon ! Neo's outfit changes colour and he had a cartoon head !

I remember watching the second movie in the cinema and coming away feeling totally cheated.

Sorry ..... I have wandered off topic here ........

I don't know anyone who thought that the Matrix Sequels were any good. They sucked harder than a vacuum cleaner in space. Truly crap. In fact, in the dictionary under crap I'm sure its listed. The last one I had trouble getting to the end.

Peter Jackson always maintained CGI should tell the story and not detract from it. George Lucas, are you reading this?

The CGI was my main concern for this film, I must admit. THE MUMMY may have been an enjoyable old fashioned romp (well I thought so), but the CGI was some of the worst I'd ever seen in a 'big' movie.
But... this teaser has put those worries to rest - The Eiffel Tower and underwater scenes looked pretty good, and while I could see a few 'matte' lines around Heavy Duty's head when he's firing from the aircraft, I'm hoping there's still work to be done on the visuals.

Bugger THE MATRIX. I hated the second one so much that, to this day, I still haven't bothered with part three.

That's totally bogus, dude. Just a quick look thru IMDB, he's had some serious bummers there. I see 4 good films, My own Private Idaho, The Matrix and the Bill and Ted films. Point Break, Matrix 2 & 3, Speed.... shudder. Have yet to see Constantine or the Day the Earth stood still. As far as the latter is concerned, Why remake a pivotal film? Its got to be doomed to failure. Did nobody tell the producers about Planet of the Apes?
