Ah, ye olde teaser-for-the-trailer. Every time we say we’re not gonna fall for it, and yet, here we are, and who can blame anyone from wanting to see something from one of the most anticipated films of the fall: “Passengers.”

Directed by Morten Tyldum (“The Imitation Game“), and starring Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt (who might fight Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone for movie couple of the year come December), the sci-fi movie tells the story of a long distance journey through space that’s interrupted… by love! Or something like that. Here’s the official synopsis:
On a routine journey through space to a new home, two passengers, sleeping in suspended animation, are awakened 90 years too early when their ship malfunctions. As Jim (Chris Pratt) and Aurora (Jennifer Lawrence) face living the rest of their lives on board, with every luxury they could ever ask for, they begin to fall for each other, unable to deny their intense attraction… until they discover the ship is in grave danger. With the lives of 5000 sleeping passengers at stake, only Jim and Aurora can save them all.
“Passengers” opens on December 21st. Watch the teaser below — the full trailer arrives tomorrow.

Sounds like total nonsense made for the lowest common denominator mass audience. Ugh! And Chris Platt…double ugh! And Lawrence for selling out for the big money and leaving decent and meaningful acting way, way behind her. Good for the folks with the herd mentality. Bad for those with any kind of aesthetic appreciation.
LOL, so much pretention in one comment. The script is from the Black List and is very highly regarded by those who read it. Both actors and director said it was the script that drew them to the project. But you obviously already know everything there is to know without having to actually watch even a trailer. Quick judgement based on minimal information… sounds like something that detested “lowest common denominator” crowd would do.
Ah, Jolene…a full fledged angry member of the herd mentality mass audience. Highly regarded by those who read it, eh? That’s so silly, but fits into those members of the mass audience who like this sort of tripe. Highly regarded…man oh man oh man!..lol…
My lord, you are an asshole. Enjoy living with that terrible attitude, I’ll enjoy not having to ever talk to you again.
Yet you keep engaging with me; keep entering the lion’s cage. Which is naive. Sorry I frightened you with my exposure of the truth, but someone has to wake people up from these childish and immature visions of the world. You even re-edited you last reply so you’re working overtime to hang on to your delusions. Relax, Jolene. It’s impossible to pretend the world is like they tell you it is and when confronted with this you become angry, rude, and resort to grade-school level name calling. You accuse me of being pretentious, which is funny, and yet you behave in a condescending manner with ‘you feel sorry for me. Horse poop! You don’t in the least so you’re lying and being disingenuous too. Shame on you.
Totally agree with you. This type of movie gives me the yawns…but then $$$ speaks volumes with Pratt and especially Lawrence.
Thank you for your reply, diana. Especially after I had to put up with the likes of Jolene responding with such rudeness and anger at someone who feels about these movies like you and I do. Yes you are correct about $$$. I don’t fault Pratt. He’s just a buffoon. But Lawrence is another matter. She had it in her to be a very serious actress but sold out for the adulation of the masses and for big money. I can’t respect that or her for making that choice. She certainly has the right to do as she’s doing, but I have the right to have lost total interest in her as she continues to act like such a bimbo in public, on the red carpet and on talk shows. I find her very repellant.
