When Earth is attacked by an alien invasion, Los Angeles become one of the biggest battlegrounds. After we put up a fight for LA the military decides that hope is lost and the city needs to be destroyed. Three hours before the bombs drop, the Marines receive a distress signal letting them know that there are still some people left in what they thought was an evacuated city. So, they send in a single unit to extract the stranded people and get them out before everything that we know as Los Angeles is gone.

IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1217613/

There's not much to find yet on this movie. Let's hope it will be as good as District 9.

As long the aliens dont have a magical force field that automatically make every human weapon useless, then it will be awesome.

Yay, more of that "Alienz have come to destroy us" bullshit. Because an alien race would just travel hundreds of thousands (and more) of light years just to consume the little planet called earth. Rolling Eyes

I know, but why can't there be intelligent action? D9, for example, you can't tell me there was no action - and still it didn't make you feel like IQ has dropped to half after watching it.

There's obviously a lot of... space (Smug) in space, but maybe it's just a preemptive strike. Why take the chance of allowing any sentient lifeform to evolve until they're a real threat, when you can easily snuff them out now!

That or they're just a bunch of intergalactic assholes.

Yeah well...its americans making the movie - so naturally it would feel more natural to make about their own place. But I do agree...

BUT....it's not as if Japan has never been under attack Wink I wonder how many times Godzilla have ruined their towns Very Happy

And there is of copenhagen also Very Happy (Reptilicus!!!!! )

What about zombies? (i know I know - no aliens...but U'k has had their share of apocalyptic settings... Doomsday/28 Days laters/Day Of The Triffids...well the last one is aliens!)

If im not all wrong, paris got annihilated in deep impact - or was it Armageddon?

I know there are more out there - but I can't remember them atm!

Just two fucking us cities in that list and even baghdad has more population than L.A. ...

While some of them might not look as "spectacular" as L.A. (while I think that spectacular does not necessarily fit), they are a LOT bigger and have much more population than L.A.

It's just because it's an American movie that they choose L.A.. not because it's big.

Bullshit...


Hey asshole - no need to call what I said bullshit just cos you don't agree.

Nobody ever claimed that the american towns were the biggest ones. I did say that they pick their own towns as they are the ones making the movies. I know I would have made one using swedish towns if I was making one.

Edit: Also, the majority of people have seen the big landmarks in the american movies either in rl or in movies. it's easier to imagine the statue of liberty getting annihilated than saddams palace or similar for most people.

take for example the second one on that list - Mumbai. How many on this board has actually ever heard about that town or have a clue where it is or what it looks like?

Don't get me wrong - it's getting quite boring to see the same bloody towns getting destroyed over and over again...but as I said - its cos people are more familiar with these towns and their landmarks.

I've heard of it (thanks Civ! Razz) but would be useless to ask me to pinpoint it on the world map or anything. Ankh has a valid point, plus it's much easier to organize the filming in these cities, it's usual business with LA, NY etc. Now imagine the extra hassles (distance for one, dealing with the officials, a plethora of other potentially catastrophic issues) of shooting in any of those top 10 cities - and for what? It'd be the same story essentially anyway, just the setting would be slightly different. Not worth it really.

Btw - that list he included doesnt really show the true population. If im not all wrong (please do correct me if im wrong) its just the main city population on it. This list show other than his. Which one is correct?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metropolitan_areas_by_population


and here's another one
http://www.citymayors.com/statistics/largest-cities-mayors-1.html

lol how to know which one to belive?

Edit: oh yeah, Buenos Aires was annihilated in Starship Troopers.

I removed the bullshit after your next post. When I started writing my post there was just your post with "They are picking the big ones...". Don't be so picky sweetheart.

It's the same with GTA. Always some copies of american cities, though it would be really nice to see a gta that plays in europe. The Bourne movies displayed that action movies must not only take place in the US.

Even Retardsis moved the alien invasion from an island to NYC...

I don't give a shit who is making the movie, it can be interesting wherever they set it. What, would 28 Days Later be more interesting in Miami? Rolling Eyes Would D9 be more interesting in Washington?
