New hi-res full trailer for THE ISLAND is up! Hmmm... Scarlett... Hmm... Ewan...
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with a link over to where you can find the full hi-res version of the brand spankin' new trailer for THE ISLAND, starring Ewan McGregor (as a straight male confident in his sexuality, I can say that Ewan has a hot ass...), Scarlett Johansson (as a straight male confident his his sexuality I can say that Scarlett has a hot everything, her ass included... especially in pink panties) and Steve Buscemi (he looks hot in pink panties, too...), to name a few. I greatly enjoy the spectacle of Michael Bay and this film looks to be on the massive level I'd expect from the man. What do you folks think?

....Scarlett - i think i love you!

yeah definetly form michael bay. why'd they put from the maker of pearl harbor, isn't universally known that that movie is shitty.
-
A.k.a. vintage Bay.
-
He knows how to make things look pretty, and I can't begrudge his films for always having great, show-stopping trailers. That being said, everything you need to know about this project is said by, "From the director of PEARL HARBOR and ARMAGEDDON." Anyone with any rational hope for this after those words is lost, even with this project subbing Spielberg for Bruckheimer in the producer's chair.
-
Meesah no likey the trailer. The opera playing over the quick cuts of action is such a commodity now that I could film it to my morning bathroom prep activities.

Hmmm ... we're all really living in little pods and our "lives" are all imagined? Doesn't sound familiar at all.
If the unimaginative editing in the trailer is any indication, well, Bay's back! -

Apparently, "The Island". I actually don't think Bay is as bad as most my fellow talkbackers. Except for that overblown turd "Pearl Harbor".

Somehow, I just don't buy a few people able to drag Michael Clarke Duncan against his will. Actually, I don't buy a tractor truck being able to drag Michael Clarke Duncan against his will.

I think it's obvious what I mean.

Michael Bay is a fucking hack. Stop giving this no-talent asscrack your money. Shit.

I cannot believe no self-respecting geek here has made the connection between this daffy flick and the priceless MST3K staple film! (Granted, Scarlett does look gorgeous and this is a beautiful trailer...) BUT COME ON, PEOPLE! Speaking of MST3K, if they don't put out full-season DVD boxed sets pronto, I may have to open a Canadian-sized can of whup-ass on somebody. Well, that or install some random railings...

Scarlett Johansson is the only thing worth watching in this...
by jim jam bongs
Ewan McGreggor is cool, too, in that "straight guys like to watch him in a non-gay way because he can come across as a cool hero with the right material". I'm undecided about Clarke, who seems to be always unsettling typecast in movies as the "sacrificial negro" and Buscemi as the "rumpled, jaded white dude". Hounsou looks good/slick/stylish as the fugitive hunter, though.
-
That sure shit looked like the SMART AND PROVOCATIVE VEHICLE TO MICHAEL BAY'S EVOLVING SENSIBILITY we all wanted to see!!!! Ergo, I rest my case.

michael bay, the absolutely WORST director/producer/ whatever the fuck he is, in the history of film, made a movie in which the trailer looks......... good? in which a trailer might represent a film that is not complete and utter HORSESHIT? im scared. someone console me, assure me he fucks this up too.
-
I'll end up seeing this on DVD or download because the two main actors are among my favorites. But it looks like a lot of chase scenes and things blowin' up. Hopefully, there will be some science in the science fiction, but this is from the guy who brought us Pearl Harbor, so I'm not expecting much.

Michael Bay makes shiny things blow up real good. Of course he couldn't direct a human emotion to save his life but you know why Bay is not the worst action director ever? BECAUSE PAUL WS ANDERSON EXISTS! NEVER FORGET THE EVIL THAT IS PWSA.

by noriko takaya
Yeah that's right, bitches! Give Michael Bay The Ultimates + a $200 million dollar budget and he will create a sci-fi/superhero/action masterpiece that will make the world forget Star Wars ever existed! He can steal explosions from the first Authority trade paperback "Relentless" only make them even more explody!! Think of it: Freddie Prinze Jr. dating Betty Ross! Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury! Titanic battles with the Hulk in NYC! Monster CGI Helicariers that would make any Navy and Air Force types in the audience sport wood! And get me LEONARDO DICAPRIO AS CAPTAIN AMERICA DAMMIT!! Yeah that's right I said it! DiCaprio would ROCK as Captain America and you all know it! And dear GOD IN HEAVEN is he CUTE! ^_^ But seriously, something like The Ultimates is tailor *made* for him - as long as someone is there to chain him to a good script. Perhaps Dean Devlin or maybe even Roland Emmerich could write it. The Ultimates: A Michael Bay film detonating in theaters everywhere 2007! MUA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HAAA!

I was going to list all the movies this ripped off, but its already been done. I'm just wondering how they got a LOST ripoff out of production so quick.

Ewan is great, Scarlet is good, this movie will BLOW!!!!!!!!
by doom ii
I will rent it because of Ewan, but I have yet to actually purchase 1 SINGLE MOVIE THAT MICHAEL BAY HAS DIRECTED! It's amazing. I have purchased A LOT of dvd's in the past 5 years, even some dumb action films, but Bay's movies give me a headache. Tony Scott and Michael Bay must sit in an editing room together and snort PILES of cocaine while getting their films ready for release. Anyone see Man On Fire? The Rock? Con Air? Armageddon? WOW! Is there a scene in any 1 of those films that lasts more than 3 seconds before a cut or camera angle change up? I know all this shit has been said before, I was just venting......................

by dented helmet
I understand that Con Air is a Bruckheimer film, with Nic Cage, and has alot of stuff blowing up, but surely even a moderate film fan wouldn't get this mixed up.
-
Pretty pictures and all but this reminds me too much of THX 1138. Not like that's a bad thing since THX is a pretty solid flick.
-
And it has the name Michael Bay in it... It refers to movies like Pearl Harbor and Armageddon... And I still *like* the trailer? Must be Scarlett...

by bob parr
There may not be any at all. However, it would be fascinating to hear. My guess is that he is hugely influence by Rowdy Herrington's work. Or maybe Hal Needham's.
-
The Michael Bay of the 1970's. His signature scene was always the one in a barfight, when Burt Reynolds would deck a guy, laugh smugly at his accomplishment, then get cold-cocked from behind by another guy. I remember plotting to pay HBO a visit with a Ryder truck and some barrels of ammonium nitrate as a result of them showing Stroker Ace 12 times a day (** NOTE TO HOMELAND SECURITY GESTAPO AGENTS: THE PREVIOUS SENTENCE WAS INTENDED AS HUMOR - I REALLY ONLY MEANT TO USE BARRELS FULL OF CHRIS FARLEY FART GAS **). Anyway, now that the evolving tao of Michael Bay has finally found an actress worthy of his talents (Scarlett Johansson, i.e. Matt Damon with tits), does this mean he has found his muse?
-
For the record, I would like to eat Scarlett too. Oh wait - you mean literally eat, as in cannibalize ? Never mind. Oh, and Michael Bay eats Fromunda Cheese sandwiches.
-
IMDB has a summary of it.
-
..."Oh bruddah!" ** I don't care what any of you say, Scarlett is simply scrumptious.
-
Loks like its recycled from a handful of movies, but could be a fun two hour popcorn movie.
-
OK, they finally found the poor kid in Florida. So what's the first thing people do??? They set up some kind of freakish alter, and surround it with STUFFED TEDDY BEARS! WHO is going to play with those bears??? WHY teddy bears?? Is this the white-trashing of our society?? Are they buying them all at Wal-mart?? I was in NYC right after 9/11, and I'll be damned if people didn't start putting TEDDY BEARS at the various make-shift memorials. What the fuck is it with teddy bears??

by dr_zoidberg
He always talks about James Cameron and how he loves his films. I like Bay, he is an enthusiastic director (on his commentaries) and his films are great. Except Pearl Harbor, that didn't work very well... although it wasn't without merit and not as bad as most people say it is. The Rock is his best film, but The Island does look great... but too much like other films, as in THX 1138... actually, it looks exactly like that film. I wonder with Ewan McGregor gets wanked off by a machine while watching a woman on the screen and Scarlett just flicks her bean in the background??? Probably not.
-
Doesn't it always seem that these unspeakably horrific things ALWAYS happen to wifebeater and mullet-wearing, trailer park-living, white trash? And then these assholes feel the need to go on television to express their grief. It's truly unbelievable. If I had a child murdered, there is no way I could go on TV about it. I know there are people who post on this site from all over the world, but doesn't it seem like if it weren't for white trash your local newscast would cease to exist?
-
I wanted to vomit when I saw those divorced "parents" get their fifteen minutes of fame on TV. Perhaps if the father had bothered to lock his trailer, the poor kid wouldn't have met such a horrible death. Maybe there's a reason tornadoes hit trailer parks.
-
If you're that horny for Ewan, you can catch both rear and frontal in "Young Adam." And if it floats your confident hetero boat, he's uncut.
-
Well, that just about says it all, doesn't it?
-
Thanks for echoing what is probably the unopposed view on the matter. Moderators - please lock this talkback now - there's nothing more to be said.

by dented helmet
Otherwise why spend so much energy hating the guy? There's obviously worse filmmakers out there, but when one of their films comes out there's not near the animosity that's seen in Bay's talkbacks. Deep down you dicks like the guy, and you hate yourselves for it. He's made you enjoy action flicks and God help us all, a buddy cop flick, so you have to overcompensate to insure noone thinks you could possibly like Bay.
-
The rest of the movie looks good too. ;)
-
I have my theory on my Scarlett Johansen looks so unique and thus hot. Take a careful look at her. Every single feature on her is larger than her frame. She has a regular frame and face, but she has really huge: eyes, lips, nose, boobs, mouth, etc, etc. I'd definitely do her. Twice. A night.

Isn't this his first feature where ol'Jezza Bruckheimer isn't producing?
Given that this is in effect Bay striking out on his own, means it might be worth a gander to see how he does without the old school action colossus behind him. Personally I hope he does alright. -
