TERROR HOTTIES

So upcoming Jennifer Connelly semihorror flick The Day The Earth Stood Still (yet ANOTHER remake–nice one, Hollywood; it’s just so damn rare to see you guys make something that’s ALREADY BEEN DONE!!) is asking an interesting question with its promotional material–what would you save?

This is one of those strange occasions when the promotional material is actually more interesting than the movie itself.  I never fail to be freaked out by those occasions, especially when I start asking myself what I’d wind up saving.  Have you ever stopped and considered that?  What would you save if you could only save three things from the demolition of the planet?  Four?  Five?

It’s an unsettlingly deep question, especially when you start separating things down to the three things (or even four or five) that you would save from complete obliteration at the hands of aliens.

Think it over, and maybe by the time the movie comes out this weekend, you’ll have a list ready!
