  • this movie is like the 2nd best movie i have seen. i love it <3

  • jus read it

  • This is obviously a sequal to Fellowship of the ring, right?

  • humbling,the little boy did get on my nerves though.

  • 1:15 are raiders from Fallout.

  • @FirelancePL totally

  • You don't actually know what happens. It's the most misleading trailer I've ever seen and one of the only examples of a film that is better than the book.

  • @gweflj I like the book alot better. The movie left out alot of parts that were inthe book... 

  • #FTW Zero Cost Movies . com #OMG - it's free here

  • The dad dies at the end and the boy finds another family lol there ya go ya assholess

  • @jenuno01 haha lol

  • Wow looks like a great movie to watch. Looks scary hehe

  • This was a great great movie I just watched this movie yesterday and it was fanaminal...Its such a great movie for everyone...It has a weird ending though

  • while it may look dumb 2 some your just ignorant because its true 2 the book and it Shows how far one man would go 2 protect his Family

    and i'm 12

  • @ViolentCrimesJr what i like is how it show how low humanity will go to survive as well.

  • looks dumb to me

  • @55345483 stop looking in the mirror then.

  • looks like adelaide?

  • this is a really intense film. it really is quite beautiful, the father and son relationship. such a dark film, but i would definately advise anyone who doesn't mind being a bit depressed for two hours to go and see it!

  • Gaah. It looks so good, but it's not showing near me.

  • ahhhh i have to see this!! phenomenal book. i love mccarthy's style

  • i dont get it why where they trying to kill them

  • Because there are groups of cannibalistic people out there, and they want to survive.

  • ah, but why arent they trying to kill each other, since they are cannibalis

  • Just caught the movie last night. GREAT EFFIN MOVIE !!!

  • GREAT BOOK!! can't wait to see this movie....I didn't even realize when I bought the book that this movie was out...Never heard of it before...I also didn't know he wrote "No Country.."...I will for sure check out his other work

  • Try "Blood Meridian". It's the most troubling novel I've ever read having just read "The Road" and "No Country For Old Men".

  • i can't wait... believe that this *will* happen. i just hope i'm alive to witness it. to watch it all come apart.

  • very good book and very good movie I liked it

  • God help us if this ever comes to pass.

  • aGreed!

  • Saw it last night. It stayed very true to the book. Well worth seeing.

  • Saw the premiere in Hollywood last night. All that lame disaster news footage was not in the film, thank god. Fantastic film, very true to the book.

  • Comment removed

  • You idiot, that sounds like a spoiler. Thanks a lot moron!

  • From what I've heard the news-type footage is really just stock footage that the studio threw onto the trailer to make it more appealing, but actually isn't in the movie.

    I've read the book several times and I definitely remember him shooting down a sniper in a window with his flare gun towards the end, as well as an explosion or two.

    Over all I think that this movie will stay true to the book. The trailer is just designed to draw in more potential viewers, as with any movie trailer.

  • way to ruin a movie. You're a genius.

  • I heard the release of this movie was pushed back, but this is a must see. The book will always be better since McCarthy's style is difficult to translate to film. And the explosions are flares that were in the book.

  • this looks interesting, but i'll wait to see it to judge completely

  • the book is more about atmosphere and if hollywood wanted to they could pull it off.

    but you cant forget there are times in the book where it does get "noisy"

  • I dont seem to remember anything blowing up when I read the book. looks like hollywood butt fucked a great story by adding shit to it that never fuckin happened...

  • Hopefully all of the explosions, and all of the scenes with the mom, are brief flashbacks.

    Let's hope that they stay true to the novel.

  • I love movies with concepts like this.

  • yeah apocalypse is great

  • I'll have to check that one out.

  • This trailer is awfully done. I hope the movie isn't. The trailer and the actual book don't play off each other well. This just seems too.... noisy.

  • It's a scam.....don't fall for it! Illelagl software that'll charge your card and give you zilch! except spyware on your computer. BEWARE!

  • it looks great.... :)

  • Is this the sequel to "2012"???

  • No, that one's called 2013

  • very very goooooood.100%

  • I never tought this book could be made a movie... i'll see it but i won't expect much from it...

    Great book by the way. Spend the money on the book store first.

  • looks good 7/10

  • The book won the pulitzer, great read.

  • This looks amazing. I love these types of movies, I need to read the book. I liked The Postman, then I read the book and was blown away.

  • No movie can do the book justice.

    There is supposed to be toxic ash falling from the sky, the days as dark as night, and the nights darker still. Covered in rags and wearing masks, they make their way through the snow, scavenging whatever they can. Emaciated bodies fueled by love alone, for without eachother they would have nothing to live for.

    You cannot capture the style of McCarthy, being so distant, so unattached of their story. Shedding a dreary revealing light on the terrors they face.

  • Good ish, explains alot

  • i read the book, can't wait to watch it

  • Yea except the mother is already dead in the book, not with her family. And, the father never gets badass on a bunch of scary people. He mainly just keeps running and hiding until he dies. Movie doesnt follow the book

  • 2:11 Sound of Banshee from Zombie Panic? Lol?

  • the book is really good

  • Anyone that believes hollywood has a clue what we would do under those circumstances needs to buy a brain. Wake up! Its only to sell tickets.

  • whats up with all this movies about the world ending.O.O

  • its the future

  • Yet another perfect example of humans unending stupidity. The world ends and instead of the survivors trying to make a better life they are killing each other. Humans need to go extinct already they are nothing but a virus.

  • you are allowing a movie (from a book) to tell you how we would act in this situation, you are then making a decision that we should all be extinct. And you say "they" as if you are not part of us. You then condeem us all to death, making you the worst of the killers. "Instead of making a better life, he condeems us all to death."

    Talk about stupid, wake up

  • Ah no just look at the world today there is no end of the world and people are killing each other just like they have always been. I say people deserve to go extinct because its the year 2009 and we are still killing each other and the planet over stupid shit like religious reasons, race, resources like oil etc so just imagine how the survivors would act after a great event like the end of the world I def believe people would be worst than in these movies.

  • It looks like they show at least kind of WHAT happened, the "apocalypse," that was one of my favorite parts of the book, NOT knowing.

  • @kemeki3 They didn't show it in the movie. That's just trailer bullshit. The movie was actually really loyal to the book.

  • i had to write a fuckin book report on this damn book but the movie looks pretty good

  • The book was pretty good too.

  • Man that snippet of the scene they showed where he's firing the flare gun at the archer?

    EXACTLY how I pictured it when I read the book.

  • so its dumb because YOU hate it? well I guess what you think is always right and everyone else opinion is wrong.

  • Definetly my favorite McCarthy novel, and yes, I'll see the movie, with fingers crossed in hopes that they captured some fraction of the devastation found therein.

  • I blame Al Gore and his dirty lies.

  • yeah you're right Global warming is a socialist conspiracy to take your daughters virginity....don't have a daughter then they'll take yours.

    Sarcasm = Latin for tearing of flesh

  • why are their being so much movies about the end of the world,its getting kinda old.:(

  • Very good book and cant wait till the movie!!

  • does anyone else think that the man yelling sound effect at 2:12 needs to be retired?

  • i agree with you!! i hate it whenever i hear it in films or shows

  • That sound effect always just reminds me of Tie-Fighters.

  • YES!!!

  • The people that make the trailers are not the people who made the movie, don't forget that. The action-style trailer may just merely be a marketing technique in order to draw those who did not read the book, seeing as how they assume most readers that enjoyed the novel will go regardless.

    Again, even though the trailer seemed action-oriented, this does not necessarily mean the movie will be as well. We'll just have to wait and see.

  • If you've read the book you'd know it's an action movie

  • good book

  • man i hope the cannibalism part isnt in the movie too. that part was SIIICK

  • this doesn't seem like it'll hold true to the book

    not gonna see it

    this is too actiony thats not what hte book was about

  • holy crap this book was depressing, looks very true to the original story. should be a good one

  • This will be a good one to see in a theatre.

  • the book was really goood,

    cant wait to see this, !

  • the book was amazing.

  • Looks good! Definatly gonna see this movie.

  • Looks kind of I Am Legendish

  • Aragorn?

  • Viggo Mortinsen yes my friend aragorn

  • lol ikr xD

  • it's the /king of Gondor in the post apocalyptic world what a freakin twist

  • yes we pretty much all know who Aragorn is lol. I was just saying xD

  • now if only it had hobbits

  • this movie reminds me of Fallout 3

  • wtf is with all of these post-apocalyptic movies lately? how times can world end?

  • its based on a book btw... and people seem to like post-apocalyptic movies

  • ahhhh the gunslinger is born, Charlize is so hot!!!

  • what book is it

  • f'n amazing

  • I've read all of McCarthy's work so I have an extremely high expectation of this film. However, the director, John Hillcoat, did an amazing job with 'The Proposition' so I have hope.

  • I bet what will happen is the test audience won't like the ending or something retarded and totally change it. Like I am Legend, they completely undid what the movie was trying to say.

  • why do they want to kill them?

  • ulyanova55: i believe to eat him-they are cannibals

  • Same type of trailer as i am legand

  • not realy i am legend trailer looked retarded

  • 2:12 thats the monster noise i remember it from starcraft on pc and some else

  • the book was freakin' awesome!!! and the ending was very very sad...... hope the movie will do the book justice.

  • I wish you hadn't said that. I mean, I understand that I shouldn't look at you tube comments under movie trailers but now I know that the ending is sad. :( Oh well.

  • Looks interesting..

    JESUS SAVES!! EVERYBODY!!

    PUHLEAZZE check out Lecrae's vid on my page..

  • lol @ 2:12 the noise

  • been waiting for this to come out.

  • wow i am actually gettin pretty tired of all these,last person on earth end of the world movies,we get it, in other news i would see it on dvd

  • Actually the book isn't really about the end of the world or last person on earth. Sure, that happens to be the setting, but when you read it, you can't help but not focus on the fact that it is post-apocalyptic. The story of the father and the son is what this is about. Finding hope when none remains. Amazing book.

  • thanx didnt know it was a book,i get its bout the father n son,but most books to movies dont usually depick it well enuf

  • A movie will never be able to do this book justice. It's quite an amazing book, its worth a read.

  • i cant wait to see this! looks good! gotta love viggo! lol

  • Ya, I love Viggo!

  • I don't like the way the preview made this movie look. The book is somber, at times horrifying, but this preview makes it look like some crappy, run of the mill action flick. I loved what the Coen Bros. did with No Country For Old Men. Shame they weren't chosen to do this as well. I'll definitely still see this, I just hope it was done right.

  • It doesn't seem to hold the same sense of existential dread that the book carried.

    It's scary that they thought they had to, at least somewhat, explain the downfall of the world. The ambiguity of the book made the father and son such elements of nature you couldn't even help but know them... I don't even think cormac mccarthy gave them names?!

  • yeah they didn't have names in the book, hopefully they don't in the movie either. The movie seems to make it look like a series of natural disasters destroyed the Earth. The book is ambiguous as you said as to what caused the cataclysm, but from the various descriptions it seems to imply nuclear war.

    The father's wife is present only in a couple flashbacks in the book. The preview seems to make her out to be a leading role in the movie. That would also significantly change the plot.

  • I don't know about you guy but I'm ready! BRING ON THE SHIT!

  • hello

  • I think this might be different

  • 2:12. HAHAHAHA. I love that scream.

  • the book was pretty good

  • I loved this book.

  • Yes the book was incredible. I read it in one a half days. I read it ALL day the first day i got it, and finished it up in a few hours the next day. Could not put it down. Incredible.

  • love end of the world flicks

  • they seem to be popular now.

  • that is because it is coming...

  • if you're a Christian then it won't be coming any time soon (like 2012). According to the Bible, only God knows when the end of the world will happen. So if the Mayans knew then it no longer qualifies for an end of the world date... to Christans.

  • Funny because I wasn't talking about 2012 or the destruction of the world. Just EOTWAWKI

  • 2012 the end of the world or the movie?

  • The actual date (12/21/2012) not the movie

  • i dont understand why people would try to kill each other when its the end of the world.

  • It will explain why when you know more of the story.

  • cannibals probably

  • Because, that's what people do.

  • because humanity would be scared, no answers and no one telling them what is what.

  • sounds like a sleeper hit movie.

  • The book was awsome. I agree with Benjaminrc--it looks as though they've put an environmental spin on it. Wish they wouldn't do that and just be true to the book.

  • at :35 it looks like the L4D map lol

  • The book was great, though from the trailer it seems like they are trying to put some kind of environmental spin on it. In the book, it seemed more like the typical nuclear holocaust story.

  • wow..w/a sense of the wrong turn feel to it, huh!!!

  • LOL Starcraft sound at 2:12 - if u select the human research dock

  • NOT AGAIN ...the day after tomorrow

  • Excellent book, hopefully the movie lives up to the print version.

  • I want to see/read this soooo badly

  • why is every movie know about apocalipse

  • They don't, that is why they make movies out of this.

  • because it's inevitable in a world where it's difficult to know something right now.

  • didnt stephen king write this...?

  • no cormac mcarthy did the guy who wrote no country for old men

  • Read the book....a really really great one.... one of my favourites...

    cant wait for the movie to come put :)))))

  • I agree with you guys! This book was very amazing and incredulous. I can't wait to watch this a movie.

  • This book was amazing, i hope the movie does it justice.

  • Everyone should read this book. SO GOOOD! Really does tell us about how our society is in desperate need of the basics: love, family, support. This post-apocalypse seems like the only option for us to go back to the basics.

  • When the civilization ends, what is wrong and right won't matter. The only thing that matters and living or dying.

  • do you have the full movie?

  • yay canibals lol

  • looks like a really good movie......I WILL SEE this one....gotta get it on DVD!
