Anudda SUNSHINE Trailer That Pretty Much Rocks!!

Published at:  Mar 03, 2007 6:41:40 PM CST



Merrick here...




A new trailer for Danny Boyle's SUNSHINE is online.

This one's a tad more "traditional" (i.e. less abstract and stylized) than what we've seen before, and I'm thinking it looks pretty great. Love the FX work.

If technology has advanced to the point where we can a.) jumpstart the sun and b.) get a ship close enough to it without it burning up, how is there no way to send this ship without a crew?

    by rdsxfan8

    this film is now pushed back from late aug till dec 15th according to darkhorizons.com
    when a studio pushes a movie back a whole 9 months doesnt that usually mean it is gonna blow donkey turds?
    I mean this thing was supposedly done in late 2005 and to keep getting it pushed back just as things are starting to hit the internet ( and what ive seen so far, the 2 trailers) it looked decent. i wont go so far as to say epic in scope but i liked the directors other 2 works so...?
    and when is the 28 days later sequel coming out? now thats something I cant wait for.

    It's the most important mission in history and they send college kids in street clothes? Yea, it's just a movie, but what kind? The college kind? If it was made six years ago it would star Freddie Prinz Jr and his cooler pal Shaggie, wouldn't it?

    This is a lame fucking idea for a movie

    by dirtsandwich

    Before you go and see it, cut out the part of your brain that thinks. First the Sun is so large the largest amount of energy mankind could create in comparison would be like a mosquito fart to a nuke. The radiation would fry any flesh millions of miles away even behind a shield. What are they using an ion drive? Wow, some technology. Either exotic matter or large amounts of anti-matter is the only thing that'll re-ignite a star. If it can even be done regardless. Bottom line: Some movies are fantasy and have fun stretching physics but this is retarded from the start. Ouuuuu! Send humans so they can get into a bind and create drama for this movie, that would otherwise be suited for a robotic mission. We can land probes on asteroids YOU FUCKS!

    I don't like the fact that there doesn't appear to be anyone over 35 on this all important mission. Except Michelle Yeoh and they have to work hard to make her look past her mid 30's...on the other hand, the reason you would send a crew instead of a robot is simple. Robots are okay at taking pictures and stuff, but people are good at fixing the unexpected problems that always come up.

    I think we should watch the movie before judging. From what I understand the "bomb" here is dark matter, not nuclear. I know this threatens Star Trek tachyon technobabble, but I personally like the posibilities. And we are LUCKY when we can even land a probe on Mars. In the 21st century. Jimminy Crickets one of the last ones missed because half of the thing was using metric and the other English. No, using a crew is not only probable, but the only rational thing to do.

    Exactly

    by dirtsandwich

    If it's dark matter, exotic or even anti-matter then the type of civilization require to fuck with that kind of technology would be a Type 1 or a Type 2. Many hundreds of years away. So robots will most definitely be able to carry out the mission. Your post contains 2 different time lines of capabilities. Dark matter and 2007 space technology. If we can harness dark matter then we can do just about anything.

    by vergil

    you and John Titor have been cruising around 2050 using your old IBM 5100 have you? In 1969 we thought we'd be on our way to Saturn by now. We have computers unimagined at the time, but no, we're probably not even going to Mars for decades yet. I don't think a dark matter device in 50 years is any less reasonable than an atom bomb was in 1906. It is very difficult to tell which technologies we will be avancing in the future.

    That sounds familiar

    by vergil

    "If we could harness nuclear, then we could do anything!" I'm sure we said that in the 40's. Turns out fission is real good at making bombs, but not supplying our hovercars. Maybe Dark Matter is similar. Good at restarting the sun, no so much at running our digital watches. The more people argue against the premise the more I like it. Now if you want to talk implausabe, then let's talk about the preposterous movie people have been unfairly comparing this too...

At least this has a good director helming the ship. I haven't been this excited since Ridley Scott showed the world how it should be done in 79. Also, I believe this movie's coming out in the UK in a couple of months.... so nah!!

    Stellar evoltion says...

    by antmanx68

    ... That our sun (with a size of 1 solar unit) will not "burn out" and make the planet colder. When it burns up its hydrogen it will expand and engulf the inner planets in flames. Stars like this one dont fade, they flash, become HUGE and then get really small. I dont see how humans would need to re-ignite it because at that point we'd be dead already.

    Why is everyone so concerned with the science behind the idea? All this talk of dark matter and solar units... What are you, a bunch of theoretical physicists? The movie isn't about a spaceship approaching the sun, it's about the people inside it. The rest of it is just a vehicle for all that "drama" stuff movies are so well known for.

    It does remind me of Armagaydon. I think the only thing we are missing in this movie is the Aerosmith ballet(vomit). So what's next, a mineral discovery on Venus? So humans land on it and walk around in dry-ice suits so they can extract it. Wait, how bout we detect a gamma burster headed for Earth so we construct an umbrella to shield the planet and humans are instructed to wrap themselves up in aluminum foil, and their pets like Fido.

    Synopsis----"Fifty years from now, the sun is dying, and mankind is dying with it. Our last hope: a spaceship and a crew of eight men and women. They carry a device which will breathe new life into the star. But deep into their voyage, out of radio contact with Earth, their mission is starting to unravel. There is an accident, a fatal mistake, and a distress beacon from a spaceship that disappeared seven years earlier. Soon the crew is fighting not only for their lives, but their sanity."___________________Sounds like The Core, 2010, Deep Impact, Armageedan, Event Horizon, And Sphere. The fifth person is probably from the lost ship from before. You could probably throw in their Solaris too if the fifth person is a copy/clone/alien type.

    Here a basic site about the Kardashev scale

    by dirtsandwich

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale
    _______No one said that this scale is perfect. It's a guideline. All they are doing is categorizing higher levels of energy technology or usage. Like child, teenager, adult. To better put into perspective where a particular civilization falls on the scale. A species' technology has to match it's social growth so it can handle the technology. Otherwise that would be like giving nukes to the pilgrims. Without a doubt the scale will change as time goes on. I'm not making any claims as to when something will happen. I'm saying that playing with the technology that some of these movies write about doesn't belong in the right time frame. They are always premature. But it's a common fact that humans are very arrogant about what they can do. Like we would be able to play with a star for the next __X__ amount of years. Come on, keep it somewhat with in reason. All they have to do is make it a realistic (good guess) futuristic film. Show us a human civilization many hundreds of years from now and then add in Sunshine.

    by vergil

    about the science is that it makes for a better movie. Why was Jaws so compelling for so many people? Because it's a real monster. There are those who like 2001, and those who like Armeggedon. For the 2001 fans, the science matters. For the Armeggedon fans it doesn't. It's just a matter of taste. I don't think anyone expects absolute perfect science. That's why it's science FICTION. However, personally, it really helps when they at least TRY...

    antmanx68 you are right about the solar expansion

    by vergil

    but BEFORE that happens, the sun will cool. That is what allows the sun to compress and achieve the pressures necessary to start the higher order fusion reactions which THEN cause the star to expand. Apparently, there is some sort of matter which makes its way into the Sun causing this cooling prematurely. I haven't seen the details, but so far it looks like these guys may have actually done their homework. I hope so anyway.

    Looks incredible.....

    by character_actor101

    So this movie has one of the most hands down, amazing international ensemble casts I've ever seen, that's just one reason to be excited for this, you've got the wonderful Japanese actor Hiroyuki Sanada who i've heard is "the" stand-out performance in this (although you never hear him in the trailer) and Cillian Murphy who's proven that he's as versatile and talented as actors come these days (check out Intermission or The Wind that Shakes the Barley or Breakfast On Pluto which are all interesting performances) and then Michelle Yeoh, Cliif Curtis who is always surprising me with good, small roles in obscure films, then Chris Evans who rumor has it really does a credible job here. Danny Boyle is one of the most refreshing and dependable directors working today and include with that a sizeable budget and you have one damn fucking nice looking flick, all of that wouldn't matter at all if the trailer looked like shit and thankfully in my opinion it only strengthens my belief that this is one of the seminal movies to look forward to this year, fuck the Spider-Mans and Transformers of the world I say (slight sarcasm there I want to see those as well but you get my point).....oh yes and that music will never get old and I really wish people would stop blaming Danny Boyle for putting it in there when they get all butt-hurt about the enclusion of it, HE DOESN'T EDIT OR HAVE ANY INVOLVEMENT WHATSOEVER IN THE FUCKING GODDAMN MAKING OF THE TRAILER....thanks.

    ....and one more thing..

    I've been an avid fan of this site for sometime, they do a admirable job of delivering the scoops I guess, but this is my very first comment and I have to say i'm ashamed of most of the people on here, they claim to truly love and live movies all the while bitching and complaining incessantly about how there's no more great films anymore and Cillian Murphy's annoying and Chris Evans can't act (I say every actor deserves a chance) and the plot is convoluted and preposterous, being a film-lover myself and an aspiring screenwriter I love anything that's inspired in this age of shitty horror remakes and studio executives with no balls to sell a good movie so they play it safe and go with Norbit instead, no matter the genre or cast or director (although sometimes you really have to draw a line in the case that Paul W.S. Anderson and Ashton Kutcher joined forces for "The Butterfly Effect in space with zombie kittens) so that's my two cents, I know it won't change anything, but the impossible-to-please idiots on here really make me not want to tell stories or make films for a living and that's depressing.
