God, I am so sick and tired of that theme. They really could have used an awe-inspiring version of the Jack Bauer's theme, but hey...

Let's use something old and overused. It's not like anyone will notice...

What's with the lame voice guy and the recycled music? It seems like a fan-made trailer more than one released by Fox.

I've been faithful to the series since it began, but everything in Africa just looks hokey. Jack doesn't need to go on a journey to find himself -- which this reeks of. He's a soulless killing machine who wishes he wasn't, but he is, and it looks like this movie is trying to undo that truth about Jack. Also, shittiest trailer voiceover/music combo ever.

...u hit the nail on the head with all three points. what the fuck?! with a good voiceover and a different (original) piece of music i may have been excited by this despite being a huge 24 fan who has now abandoned the series due to its ludicrous handling of last season. im just not sure about this... and robert carlyle... why do you have to be american!?

So Stallone makes another Rambo movie, Fox Channel sees it and thinks "Great Plot Idea for 24?"

Not What I Was Expecting, But...
by DeeJay
Jul 16th, 2008
04:52:25 PM
I was a big fan of the show a couple of years back, but just feel as if it "jumped the shark" as soon as that bomb went off in--- where was it--- Los Angeles? For me, part of the Bauer mystique was that the everyday person had no idea of the threats he dealt with... and the things he courageously did to save all of us. Once that bomb went off, the show seemed to move from drama/fiction to fiction (in my mind, at least). Production values aside, this latest effort looks to be something of another bump in the road. That is, unless the writers can give an exceedingly good reason for Bauer to be in Africa. Whatever the case, I hope that the show eventually restores the Bauer mystique as someone whose saving your life even though you don't know it.
Obviously a temp voiceover and music track

"An Historic" -my pet peeve
by Adelai Niska
Jul 16th, 2008
06:17:36 PM
Why don't people realize that "Historic" starts with a fucking H? It's "A Historic". A. You use "An" when the next word starts with a vowel. Even the English, who often ignore their H's get it right do why can't Americans? Do they teach you that in school? I mean it's not like you say you're studying for 'istory class. You pronouce the H. So why does every american on TV say "An Historic?"
Worst voiceover work EVER.

Jul 16th, 2008
06:48:26 PM
Are you British? Because our understanding (and yes, I speak for all Americans) is that the "an historic" thing is a holdover from the British dialect, in which the "H" is generally silent at the beginning of a word. If you're British (or if other Britishers want to correct me), I'll happily admit I'm wrong. But that's the idea.

It's beneath Burundi, in between the DRC and Tanzania. Check Google or Wikipedia.

seriously, the tv movie could be good but that's gotta be the cheesiest, weediest voiceover work for a show as universally-beloved as 24.

what the frak were they thinking?

p.s. you checked google and wikipedia, huh? gotcha.

yep, the British say 'an historic' because the 'h' is silent

And, yes, the music and VO are temp tracks and will be replaced. For everyone who is so quick to cry PLANT and FAKE for reviews and photos, the temp VO on this trailer really fooled you. Suckas.

Looks very derivative. What the hell happened to this show? I don't care if that's a rough cut, how long does it take to find somebody with a better voice for such a big-budget show? And also, in case the link above does, here is an alt to this POS: http://spoilertv-24.blogspot.c om/2008/07/prequel-trailer-wor k-print.html

replace the 'v6' part in the address with 'v1' or 'v2' (and so forth) and you'll get different versions. Not much difference though.. And yeah, this is a rough cut of the trailer - not the finished product.

I was going off some british actor (can't recall who) telling Jon Stewart that he was annoyed at how stewart always says An Historic. I dunno, where I live we pronunce the H, same as saying history. Like I said, It's just a pet peeve.

Prepare to be disappointed, I fear. Not much for me to hope for - maybe a drama series nod to The Wire (it's now or never), Mary McDonnell getting through in drama actress, and BSG doing well in the tech categories as well as writing and directing.
looked it up on the ol' internet
by Adelai Niska
Jul 16th, 2008
11:06:21 PM
...because it turns out I'm really super bored: "For choosing a or an, spelling doesn't matter; pronunciation does. A is for consonant sounds; an is for vowel sounds. The ever-popular "an historic" is incorrect, at least for American speakers, because historic does not begin with a vowel sound. Even those Americans who say "an istoric" will admit that they say "historic," with the consonant h, when the word stands alone. I don't care whether "an istoric" rolls off your tongue more easily than "a historic"; you don't go altering your pronunciation of a word in order to change the article you use before it. Your comfort is none of the language's concern." So the elements of style says that yanks should not use "An historic," although it turns out I was totally wrong and British folks always use "an" for just about anything with an H.

The clips from the preview of the new season looked promising when they were aired last winter, but this clip was far from captivating. Granted they probably are still filming and much of the action hasn't been shot yet. Hopefully, it is better than it looks. Eventhough Exile is only a prequel to set up the new season, it has to captivate the audience and not just be filler and backstory.

06:30:01 AM
don't know if anyone else has heard this, but i was just listening to a local radio station here in atlanta and they said that julia roberts might guest star on 24 next season. the weird thing is that kiefer and julia dated and almost got married about 20 years ago. she broke off the wedding just days before they were to get married. i never knew any of this...

There's no way that's the final VO, that's the editor or audio supervisor laying down a scratch track for timing. We'll see the trailer again in the next week or so with the regular Fox guy doing the work.

Is Tony still host to the alien symbiote known to us as Soul Patch? Are there any pictures out there to confirm his look for S7? My thinking is that the alien symbiote works opposite from say Venom in that it causes its host to "do good." Once it was removed Tony's dark side was unleashed as that is his true nature.
