Roland Emmerich's Moonfall continues to look like the best/dumbest movie in its second trailer
That's a nice moon you've got there, it would be a shame if it... fell
There’s something truly invigorating about watching a filmmaker operating at the absolute apex of their abilities, putting so much of their heart and soul into a project that you can actually see it uncompromisingly reflected on the screen. We’re talking cinema as art, not as the soulless cog in some mouse’s marketing machine, and it’s hard not to look at that kind of film and feel like you’re looking upon true beauty.
In other words, there’s another trailer for Roland Emmerich’s Moonfall—the movie where the moon falls—and it looks like a god damn blast in the best/worst way. The first teaser, released back in September, was largely plot-free and banked its appeal on the natural escalation of Emmerich’s filmmaking career (he wrecked landmarks, he wrecked cities, he wrecked important historical events, and now he’s wrecking the whole planet AND everyone’s favorite orbiting object).
