I just saw it.

Must admit, it is affected by Abrams' Lostish attitude ('Let's make a shitload of clusterfucks of unrelated things that we would never explain later'), but still it's a great watch. And the young cast is brilliant. I felt like watching Goonies back in the days when I had no idea what a vagina looks like. Don't know where that idea came from.

Dunno, possibly it was but I was busy searching something more curvy at that time... Or wait, it was released around 1988... so in Poland it was almost the end of communism, which means a color tv set was the peak of technology, vhs recorders were about to get common and nobody heard about something like copyrights of digital media. Whoa, nobody heard about digital media.

Anyways, E.T. - somehow got through iron curtain, Mac and Me must have had too few Jews lobbying. That wasn't funny, was it?

There is even more than kids film combined with Clovefield shit. And I don't mean gay looking dude playing a police officer.

Check the moment at 1:43 of the trailer. It's something that somehow fits to Piranha 3d, which wasn't as bad as people say it was.

Now, that might be a complete movie. Although I could do without those kids, and without gays. Actually, they should leave 1:43 moments and add some KA-BOOMS.

EDIT: Just saw the second clip. Is it a sign of being fucked up to expect to see an explosion of blood and guts when one sees a boy in a wheelchair heading towards rocks? I know it was only visual confusion, but still... I somehow wanted to see gore explosion and instead this boy hit the water... And then plastic E.T. emerges from nowhere. Somehow disappointing.

Wow, there was me thinking it was a Cloverfield style horror after the initial teaser trailer, then thinking it was an 80s Spielberg kids film during the beginning of this trailer, then boom - it's actually both in one amazing package.

Well done, JJ, well done.
