City of Ember Trailer

This upcoming movie looks interesting.

The trailer makes me think of BioShock!

Why do these people still use Quicktime when many other sites have proven you can do far better and less annoying streaming without it?

I saw a trailer for this in the theater a while back.  Kind of odd... at first I just kept thinking "Bioshock ripoff", and Julia was very vocal about her feeling in that regard as well, but then it seemed like it could theoretically be interesting in its own right... possibly.  So who knows.  Could be cool, could be a total crapfest.

It might look like a bioshock ripoff, but it's based off a 5 year old book.  So, I don't think it's really fair to call it a ripoff.  Looks spiffy, though.

It's actually based off a novel, so I too was disappointed to find out it wasn't based on Bioshock or Fallout.  Oh well.

I just watched City of Ember and I coulda sworn it was a live action Studio Ghibli film!

It was interesting and it stands out from the current movie line-up.
