TERRA NOVA FIRST LOOK TRAILER

Looks really good, when is it released?

Wow, german sd kfz wagons + dinosaurs + AVATAR's Colonel Miles Quaritch as the Good Fatherly Camp Commander= WIN mixed with WTF?!

Will this one have terrians too?

Hmm, Jurassic Park meets Avatar... Hopefully it will be more than that.

Looked like a whole bunch of "meh" too me.

First i was like hey cool concept then i was like HOLY DINOSAURS As well. Sold.

Eh, feels like a rip-off...

A
rip-off to be exact.

Only without the terrians and the grendlers...

Man y'all are late with this.

huge budget + questionably marketable + Fox = canceled after the first season, even if it's good.

So it's Avatar + Jurassic Park now... Looks boring Imo...

Game of Thrones owns all IMO.

IS this a movie or a tv series? And also, from what I gather from the Trailer, in order to save modern man, they travel back in time? to bring high levels of civilization even sooner in history so we can screw up through over population a bit faster?

And, oh, If they travel back to when Dino's where still alive won't they suffer horrible disasters whent he Meteor strikes, the Siberian Traps catch fire and allmost all life goes extinct? You'd expect our scientists to know these things no?

Yeah that's a pretty big plothole, considering that the humans in 2150 sending people back never found any evidence of Cretaceous era human civilization it means that this colony must have been a failure.

Unless of course it's doing one of those "this creates a new timeline" things.

And, oh, If they travel back to when Dino's where still alive won't they suffer horrible disasters whent he Meteor strikes, the Siberian Traps catch fire and allmost all life goes extinct? You'd expect our scientists to know these things no?

They are sending them back 85 million years, not 65 million years. If humanity hasn't figured out how to deal with an asteroid in 20 million years there's no hope for us.

Looks pretty incredible for a tv show... I think it's going to suffer from its own grandiose FX budget. No one watches Sci-fi anymore... sadly. This will bring in two million viewers or less and they'll cancel is in favor of more disgusting reality tv. Pity. I think it looks cool.

That's properly because no one makes any decent Sci-fi, but I agree with the disgusting reality tv... I hate the new generation of kids.

Just looked it up, it will create an alternate timeline a new earth. I'm not really exited about this series

Firefly was good and I enjoyed Sara Conner Chronicles and Stargate Universe was getting good.

This is just Michael Crichtons "Jurassic Park" and H.G. Wells "The Time Machine" wrapped into one, hideous, high production valued monstrosity. We will see if it is entertaining I suppose, though I doubt it will beat out Falling Skies (the show it is attempting to compete with, I presume).

EDIT: Is there a Falling Skies thread?

Did they cancel Stargate Universe?

Yeah the suckers did, just as it was getting good

Falling Skies is a cable show, this will be network. They aren't really competing unless they are on during the same time slot (which would be a bad idea since there will certainly be significant common audience between the two shows). Falling Skies could get 2 million viewers and be considered a success, this could get 5 million and be canceled.

The thing that this show is going to suffer from the most is too many chefs in the kitchen messing with things. They are still in the works of figuring out the plot lines and mythology of the show, as they shoot it!

Lost and Heroes suffered from the same issue with varying degrees of success. But either way, its never a good thing when no one can agree and keeps telling the wheelman where to steer the ship. I hope for the best and look forward to seeing what they've created.
