Sounds like AKIRA

Seriously, my NERD RAGE is building to an epic level of nerdified ragefullness!

can we stop calling it akira... you are getting an akira remake. at least we get new takes on the superhero genre. personally this reminds me of the awesome first season of heroes in its realism.
marvel72 - 12/16/2011, 3:15 PM
pretty cool poster.

@ markv

they want people to go to the cinema,it'll probably be released over the weekend.

Ooh the power to move clouds. Almost as cool as Liev Schreiber's ability to...grow his nails long...er.
Supes17 - 12/16/2011, 3:20 PM
@GreendaleHumanBeing:
I was simply pointing out the OBVIOUS similarities.

And it does look like a "[frick] u God"
I think they might have some complaints headed their way
Supes17 - 12/16/2011, 3:21 PM
Moving clouds is boring.

I'll wait for the reviews before I jump to any conclusions on this.

OMG so tough ..

Badly composed poster. Awesome trailer. The black kid is from The Wire I think. I will definitely check this out.
Greengo - 12/16/2011, 3:55 PM
That trailer is badass,imo.
Amazo - 12/16/2011, 4:05 PM
@Greengo
Agreed mate

Goddamn that looks even more awesome after rewatching it. Thanks, ncreb.

I like this but, why is his right hand up but the cloud is left handed.
Mikfly - 12/16/2011, 4:46 PM
The trailer looks awesome, that poster looks kinda weird though, but it does speak to the 'troubled kid' Andrew is.
Ironnick - 12/16/2011, 5:00 PM
By the end of this movie Andrew will have turned bad, and the other two kids have to stop him from killing other people.
esoules84 - 12/16/2011, 5:14 PM
I think this movie is gonna be sweet. How many of you would just lay waste to everyone if you had powers like that? How many of you would be the good guys?
GreendaleHumanBeing - 12/16/2011, 5:19 PM
@batmanrises the black actor is Michael B. Jordan who has an awesome resume already: The Wire, and Friday Night Lights
MaddMonkk - 12/16/2011, 5:45 PM
it has to be a rebel or loner that gets the powers because if it was the student council president and quaterback or homecoming queen they would destroy everyone with their bullying evil!
maxer - 12/16/2011, 5:50 PM
i'm not into this first-person-cam-view documentary style thingee, but i'll give this a try..
sKeemAn - 12/16/2011, 6:24 PM
Ha the cloud is putting up the left hand big mistake

Bandrews1 - 12/16/2011, 6:49 PM
Love it, can't wait for this.
Moonwalker1991 - 12/16/2011, 7:02 PM
This looks like it should be a TV show.

Here in the U.S. native American tribes used sign language to communicate.

The extended middle finger means, "Pass the fu**ing mashed potatoes"!

So I'm a little confused about the innuendo of this poster.
njferns - 12/16/2011, 9:16 PM
HAHA good poster but the finger cloud is a PS job not well done...Could've been better...
Ceejay - 12/16/2011, 9:33 PM
Efective Poster, very intriguing film, definitely give it a viewing and thank god not silly costumes!
Ceejay - 12/16/2011, 9:36 PM
..erm, shouldnt't that poster read

"Not all Super Powers make you a Hero"

Instead of "Not all Heroes are Super"?
Greengo - 12/16/2011, 9:55 PM
Lmao @ theWorld! Zing!
Supes17 - 12/16/2011, 10:16 PM
LMFAO! @theWorld: Perfect timing:p

They need to seriously rethink their advertising. I saw the poster and instantly thought - this looks like something I will go out of my way to avoid, the trailer however looks really interesting!

I was wondering if someone else caught this. Just shows their attention to detail... this movie will suck.

What's wrong with his arm?
FlannelGuy26 - 12/18/2011, 8:05 AM
I'm all for this flick...with the exception of the inevitable ending where I'm sure they all die.

I just want a good super hero smack down, doc style. I want to see the two friends try to take Andrew down. From the trailer, the guys seem likeable (yet don't get why they swim to pull the dude from the car). I'd like to see them play the hero card to help and take their friend out through some hardcore telekinesis and flying (think Superman 2). Just don't have their deaths be lame.

In any case, the formula seems obvious and from some massive pausing, I've gathered Andrew seems like the black sheep of his friends. The one who probably gets picked on and when he gets a taste of powers, well, you can figure it out. Seriously, go through the trailer with a fine comb. You'll find some rad scenes.

Heroes was a let down. I never got the Sylar/Peter smackdown I deserved. This could be it.

Wow! Looks like totally boring, derivative, shit.
