Will and Jaden Smith explore the bond between father and son on a dangerous planet in this trailer for After Earth

This is the second time a trailer for M. Night Shyamalan's AFTER EARTH has hit during my shift. Does the Hollywood collective sense that I need more convincing on this film? Because, I do.

The final trailer for the film throws out more action and gives a little more character background. I think the story is pretty easy to figure out here: This kids pompous ass father is told by his wife to get his shit together and spend time with his son. Way to flunk out of the Space Academy. Spending time with his son unfortunately is not a trip to the ice cream store and a new video game. Instead, they get on a ship, crash, and end up on what Earth has become after a cataclysmic event. The elements are working against them, and Mother Nature is a harsh mistress. Kind of makes me think about THE HAPPENING.

Check out the trailer below.

Synopsis: A crash landing leaves teenager Kitai Raige (Jaden Smith) and his legendary father Cypher (Will Smith) stranded on Earth, 1,000 years after cataclysmic events forced humanity's escape. With Cypher critically injured, Kitai must embark on a perilous journey to signal for help, facing uncharted terrain, evolved animal species that now rule the planet, and an unstoppable alien creature that escaped during the crash. Father and son must learn to work together and trust one another if they want any chance of returning home.

AFTER EARTH, starring Will Smith, Jaden Smith, Isabelle Fuhrman, and Zoë Kravitz will release in theaters on June 7, 2013.

Extra Tidbit: What is that accent??? I'm still not getting it.

Those seatbelts don't look very secure.

I gave up on seeing Shyamalan movies several years ago. The just got worse and worse. Even though I enjoy big over-the-top sci-fi, this one looks mired in poor CGI. Plus I don't really give two whits about Jaden "My dad's cool so I'm cool" Smith. That said, I may break my boycott and go see this movie if it somehow gets really great reviews, but I'll be surprised if that actually happens.

obvious spoilers in the trailer

MAJOR SPOILER
MAJOR SPOILER This trailer makes it even more clear that Will Smith dies as the ship crash lands at the beginning. The twist is obviously that the Smith we see in the ship for the rest of the film is either in his son's imagination or the ship's computer. The only shots of Smith outside the ship are in battle scenes with lots of humans which are obviously used to setup his character at the beginning as a great soldier.

Although it does sound like a Shyamalan twist, I have to disagree. They are obviously two different scenes put together for the trailer, or very sloppy editing. In the scene where you can see WIll Smith fly away he is on the left side of his son. In the next scene where an unidentified person flies out it is on the son's right side. Also Will Smith states "Two confirmed survivors" which assumes there were others on the ship as well that could have flown out, and why would a computer program

Shit CGI ruins everything, so does M. Night...

Has M. Night Shamalangadingdong learned his lesson yet? It doesn't look like it. This looks mediocre and horribly acted. IT is like WIll Smith is forcing his kid into this crap, and never saw The Happening. If Will Smith wants his son to be an actor they should have stuck with more Pursuit of Happyness style movies, not thrown himself and his kid into a horrible movie directed by a guy who peaked 13 years ago and has been on a rapid decline ever since.

With regards to why all the animals are trying to kill humans - we left the planet, they had an animal meeting to discuss it, and it was only when they all got together for a chat that they realised all their problems stemmed from us, and boy were they pissed. It's like when someone quits their job, and even if they were a good employee those that remain start blaming everything that goes wrong on something that guy did before they left. Only bigger.

I really wish I could like Shyamalan, I really do.

I don't know why, but I always give M. Night Shyamalan the benefit of the doubt. I think it's because he doesn't actually realize his films are awful. Or he realizes it, and sticks by them regardless. He is loyal to his work , and I like that in any filmmaker. That being said, this film does look less than stellar. I get the accents (1000 years away from Earth with people from different cultures stuck together, language is bound to change in some way) and the casting of Will and Jaden Smith,

It's like expecting Taylor Lautner to carry Abduction (which couldn't even carry itself), it just won't work. However, I'll check my expectations at the door and judge it for what it is.

Good grief. All the whimpering, and sniveling. It's pretty obvious some can't or just won't look at M.Night's work objectively anymore. Why even watch the trailer if you were already predisposed to need a diaper change upon seeing it?

Let's see what we got here:

1) M. Night Shyamalan
2) Will Smith
3) One of Will Smith's obnoxious kids
4) ANOTHER apolocalpytic premise
5) Silly accents
6) Heavy CGI
7) Names that sound like rejected Mortal Kombat characters.

I think I'd rather spend an afternoon getting various objects rammed up my ass. Sorry, but M. NS hasn't been good for years, and he probably never will be. Guy's a total tool, and he can't make a film to save his life. Prove me wrong, but I see another under

That's the problem. You're the tool. Fuck RT. That system is seriously failing. It's become increasingly flawed in that it attracts sheep like you who read what a handful of jerks say and then you take their opinion as you own so that you can leave snide remarks like the one above and think you sound cool and hip. You my friend are neither. You are a sheep in man's clothing.

Are you actually defending this curry munching hack? Walrus seemed to hit the nail on the head. I've got more talent in the head of my cock than m.night has exhibited in any of his films. He's squandered any goodwill he had from his sixth sense/unbreakable days. Yea and the smith nepotism is pretty heinous.

Will Be Watching On Big Screen

A few parts look cheesy but I'm willing to overlook them because overall the movie looks good. I definitely like watching long adventure flicks on the big screen, makes me feel I got my money's worth. As for an accent, I don't hear one. I hear what I believe is a military tone, but not a southern accent. And the names don't bother me, I've heard crazier names in other sci fi flicks.

I really want to like this movie, but the second trailer didnt really show me anything different. I feel this will be around 55% on Rotten Tomatoes and keep M.Night in the directing business.

looks cool

but i will be expecting an explanation as to why earth is now filled with all sorts of man-eating creatures, seeing as how we're at the top of the food chain. 1000 years is not enough time for a significant change. maybe these "cataclysmic events" which forced humans to leave will explain it. And obviously there's the alien creature. What worked for jurassic park was the beasts and their prey were confined to a small space. i hope there's another plot device used other than "boy escapes

I have hope and I have enjoyed many of Shyamalan's movies. I will be checking this out as I love large original movies. It looks like a fun adventure, and I look forward to seeing the visuals of earth after it has existed for 1,000 years with no humans. W Smith is always entertaining and fun to watch.

Have to admit..."It has found you." line did make my eyes roll...OTT or what. I mean ...if it was my son ...I'd be..."f*ck, it's found you ...run for your f*cking life!!!!". Of course...I'd also not give the running Aliens style commentary...200 metres ..175 metres ..150 metres ..125 metres ..okay, we get it, it's coming for you. I'd go to the "f*ck, it's found you ...run for your f*cking life!!!!" line a lot sooner. That all said the trailer clearly shows Will Smith's character to be

That all said the trailer clearly shows Will Smith's character to be intense, very disciplined and emotionally detached from his son. His dramatic style of speak is the result. When he says...I'm going to the toilet back at home ...probably says that in epic fashion too. It's just the way his character is.

Oh no...the usual dissing nitwits are on here trying to showcase their super ability to critique movies. Already dissing this movie despite not seeing it yet...heck even questioning the accents...with one person asking..."Plus what's with the stupid accents?" I don't know if this movie will be any good...but the trailer was decent. As for the accent...well let's see...humans have left earth for a 1,000 years...anyone here clever enough to hazard a guess of what accents could sound like then.

Do any of you know how they go on to live - did the trailer show that? Do races ...cultures ...nationalities still exist? Does anyone know anyone who had a particularly strong accent...moved to another country...and whilst never acquired the local accent...definitely lost their original strong accent? If you heard them for the first time...may you'll be ignorant enough to say they've got a stupid accent...because you're too lazy to think about why they ended up with an accent that you can’t place. Stop over analysing trailers...and wait and see the movie. If it turns out to be rubbish...go crazy with the over analysing ;o)

Most people go see movies based on whether or not the trailer is good or not. If it's a movie from something we haven't seen before, or has no identity yet, it helps to have a good trailer to make the movie look it's best so people will give it a shot. It's how movies are sold. So if this trailer sucks, a guy like me isn't going to waste his time at a theater. I may watch it on Red Box, but that's about it.

The first trailer was giving me hope, but now it's all gone.

M. Night just can't help but inject his weird, obnoxious dialogue into everything he does. "It has found you." So lame and over the top. The guy has become so ham-fisted with the way he tries to make something sound cool or epic. Like he's fallen in love with his own style. It gets worse with every movie.

Better...

This trailer was a WHOLE lot better than the previous trailer. I'm not saying I'll be there at the midnight screening but maybe I"ll give it a look if it gets enough positive reviews/buzz. On another note: I can't help but think, "He turned down Django Unchained, for this?!!!" After making one Oscar bait film after another (Seven Pounds, Ali, Legend of Bagger Vance, and so on...), he turned down his one true shot of getting nominated again (and ultimately losing to Daniel Day-Lewis).

I wasn't implying that Will Smith is my preferred lead in Django. Just saying I can't picture anyone choosing M. Night picture over Tarantino's. It's mind blowing to say the least. Either way, I'm sure Christopher Waltz isn't complaining.

"It has found you" - Lol, that was perhaps the single worst possible delivery of that line.

Smith can be a very good actor, so the blame here rests entirely on the director.

i think this movie looks fun and its going to do what a movie is supposed to do, ENTERTAIN. I wonder what would be the reaction if instead of directed by M. Night it was directed by Chris Nolan.

I'm not sure about this. The visuals need some brushing up for starters. Definitely waiting for word-of-mouth. I think a movie like this is already so out-there that any twist would be negligible (like in "Avatar," when they found out Pandora was actually alive with a spirit).

My guess as far as that accent goes, they're attempting some sort of future-speak. A non-regional dialect for people who have spent their entire life off-planet.

Ya know, it would be really sweet if everyone didn't immediately see a movie simply made by the guy and instantly hate on it regardless of how it looks. I'm waiting for word of mouth from the world before I even judge it. I haven't given up on the guy yet.

Honestly man it really for me has nothing to do with that, sure I think he's a garbage director as of late that really needed an ego check, and I think the nepotism is a little ridiculous here as well, but really, for me I can almost always look past all of that shit, unless it's a film by Steven Sommers, I will never watch another turd from that idiot again...Sorry, off topic, but to me, nothing about this looks good so far, and I really do like Will Smith's movies in general, but I don't

chill out.

I think this looks good, plus with will smith it can't end up being that horrible. Forget all the previous stuff m night did and give it a chance. Everyones already made their mind up about the movie 4 months before it even releases. That's ridiculous

God

Wow that is some bad CGI, and come on, who came up with these character names, Cypher Raige???? Kitai Raige?? Did a 12 year old write this? Also gotta love that the studios didn't put M. Night's name anywhere on this, shows how far this guy has fallen...

I don't know what happened to Shyamalan, but whatever deal he made with the Devil has clearly expired.

From the Director of ... oh, right. Seriously though, I give credit where it's due because Night had his day. Will is a huge onscreen presence so I'll try my best to stay neutral on this film but I can't get over the "trying to look smarter than it actually is" feeling I get from it.

I'm sick to death of the Fresh Prince's kids, but this movie looks okay, even if the twist in the trailer is from the end of the Goosebumps "Welcome to Camp Nightmare" book. An RL Stine reference on a nice March day? You know it!

M. Night? Jaden Smith? Bah

Of course theres no denying Will Smith is an entertaining screen presence not to mention a solid dramatic actor but I really have no love for the other two major players here. Count me out.

I'll remain open-minded but there are already things bugging me in that trailer. The wooden dialogue, the "Alien" tracking scene, etc.

Other than those few things though, it does look good and I'm rooting for Shyamalan cause this guy really needs to get out of movie jail. I also love the fact that nowhere in the trailer does it mention his name, I'll bet that makes him feel good. :)
