Klaatu Barada Nikto!

These words may possibly be said by Keanu Reeves in this sci-fi remake of the 1951 original of The Day the Earth Stood Still as he stars as Klaatu. The movie, which I have seen on TV, is quite a classic of a movie. I suggest to people who actually will do so, to see the 1951 original before seeing this in December. Because even though it is said to be a remake, it looks more like a sequel. I know most of you won't see it, its sad and sends a good message actually. Will this one send the same? See the trailer to have your own opinion on what seems to be quite an interesting take on the classic. Keanu seems right for the part (See other formats on the side with the links to trailers):

Pop quiz: What other movie includes the saying: "Klaatu Barada Nikto?"

Answer: Army of Darkness directed by Sam Raimi (Also director of Spider-man movies and Evil Dead movies). It was told to Ash to remember the words to obtain the Book of the Dead to go back to his own time. Very entertaining movie, so you should take a look at it as well.

Movie Posters that look like other Movie Posters:

Just thought I insert an extra little thing. I saw two movie posters the other day that were for two different movies, but almost look the same. I think its quite amusing since this happens a lot. Maybe they had the same photoshop person working for them? Maybe they wanted to so something the same since the movie releases maybe so close? Whatever the case its always a good laugh. Even the movie Bangkok Dangerous had to do a new movie poster probably because of the same problem? Who knows, I just know I have no interest in the movies from the posters right now (Watch them become best picture at the Oscar's...):
