Oct 14 2009'Daybreakers' Poster: The Most Precious Natural Resource... Is Us!
And I'm almost out of me! Luckily, this natural resource preciousness switchover apparently doesn't take place until 2019, when Sam Neill and his vampire legions start harvesting our blood. So, until then, time to decide: what is our most precious resource?
Here are your options:
- our children
- fossil fuels
- gold
- processing power
- resourcefulness
- trees
- those Starcraft crystals
- your local library
- elders
- oracles
- World Book Encyclopedia
- water
- time
- women
- rare spices
- you have the most precious resource of all: the ability to save a life by donating blood!
- human resources (humans)
- human resources (the department)
Discuss.

so has it been long enough since the Matrix came out that filmmakers can now claim ignorance of its existence when writing new movies?

So how does becoming a vampire equate to being the battery for a computer? ... Daybreakers is about the population becoming vampires... Matrix = world population has become batteries for our computer overlords... so i suppose they are alike in that they deal with the whole world ... ... ...

I want to be....a vampire? Unless I sparkle in the sunlight. If that's the case, bring on the garlic bread!

Those crystals from starcraft. Without them I can't upgrade my mutalisks, and I need those!
Also phones. If I have a broken phone I have broken dreams.

i was just talking about the image on the poster being a gigantic rip-off of the machines' fields of humans in held for energy cosumption. take a cold shower and get rid of your Twilight vampire boner.

wouldnt the people be grazing green fields and getting herded into the them cage thingies, where the cattleman check for hoof and mouth, and give the cows vaccinations, and artificially inseminate them.
i mean if we are truly the cow for vampires. never really seen any animal being raised like this.

[having just watched the trailer] That scene has been done many times before & since the Matrix (Aliens, X Files, etc.). However, it seems like there is a big plot hole in the trailer. So all that technology and imprisonment...but forced in vitro fertilization followed by birth, fattening, and harvesting of fresh humans (just like cows) is beyond their reach. Perhaps they have a reason in the full movie.
...like che-che said above.

Of course... the obligatory diving away from the explosion shot right at the end :)
I think it looks fine. I think they're actually going for a semi-B-gradish action type thing. That was sort of the point behind doing it in the first place. I think if anything this trailer is just made poorly. It's an awful trailer, but because of that we can't really understand what the movie should feel like. shrug.

#4 said it best.
I cannot improve on that. Unless this movie has Zombies riding dinosaurs saving the humans in order to ultimately eat our brains in the end of it.
It's going to suck.

Totally gonna suck. And not in a funny pun-way. It's just gonna suck, like a broken-toothed 68-year old ho.
I can see that writer's meeting;
"So, vampires are popular now."
"Okay, vampires are in."
"Plagues are topical now."
"Okay, plague is in."
"The Matrix was popular long enough ago that there are people who won't haven't seen it."
And thus, and another Sam Neil B-movie is born!!
