The first half of the trailer semi confused me, which for a movie that seems basic is kinda bad, I'll just chalk that up to a bad editing choice for the trailer. The fact that it has Paul Bettany as a lead and kicking ass is a huge draw for me and I'm never to turn my nose up at Dennis Quaid.

So, third option, ehh.

Despite the fact that this trailer was a minute and a half too long and that it showed half of the main characters dying seems like a stupid advertising move.

That being said, there were a few moments where I nearly shat my pants, and I definitely want to see it.

I've been looking at that site and noticed there's a lot of horror genre movies coming out, making me feel like I'm behind the times. Like, the one where there are like only a few humans left in a world of vampires also sounds cool, and apparently there's going to be an Owen Wilson buddy comedy about a vampire.

Crab ice cream man and spider granny? They might just be trying too hard.

No

This movie? Waste of time.

The movie about Nazi zombies looks more entertaining than this.

From the guy at the start I thought this was going to be Men in Black 3.
It should be that film instead.

Um.......no

I totally went into that trailer thinking badass demons and when I read the description I thought it would be pretty cool.  After watching the trailer, colour me unimpressed.  Why do trailers like showing me what character is going to die?  It doesn't bother me too much but I have friends who if they see a character die in the trailer they can't enjoy the film as much anymore.  Personally I can get told the entire plot to a movie and enjoy it just as much. 

Anyways, the CG looked ropey and absolutely horrible, the possessed people looked like the vampires from 30 days of night, except not nearly as dangerous looking.  And Dennis Quaid?  I couldn't pry myself away from his beard. 

This might be a download for me, but there's absolutely no way I'm prying money out of my wallet for this thing.

This movie looks absolutely shit.  The story, acting and effects are all really really crap.

I mean, to be honest I kind of liked the idea for the movie before the angels got involved.  God's turned his back on humans because we suck, but Michael goes rogue to protect us from the devil.  That would be kind of neat.  God actively getting involved and sending his angels down to kill Jesus doesn't make any fucking sense.

Admittedly, the movie about Nazi zombies looks fantastic (seriously, who could hate "Eins, zwei, die" as a tagline?).

I couldn't make it through all of the trailer.  If I'd forced myself to watch it, would I be looking forward to this movie more?

Maybe the Jews are right!

This film looks fucking terrible. It's about as far removed from my kind of film as it's possible to get. Also, didn't we just have a post-apocalyptic "save the pregnant woman" movie recently? Wasn't it called Children of Men? Wasn't it awesome?

I only have one thing to say about Legion, and that is... this movie looks batshit insane. It has the potential to be so horrifyingly terrible, that you will actually shit your pants when watching it.

I think the writer from Filmdrunk said it best with "The Legion Trailer Broke My Insides (http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2009/08/legion-looks-badass)."
