Truly one of the best movie teasers I have seen to date is Disclosure Day. The trailer features a chilling sequence with Emily Blunt as a weatherwoman who appears to be “possessed” or “hijacked” by an extraterrestrial force while live on the air. Instead of words, she emits a series of rhythmic, mechanical clicking sounds—a haunting “mysterious language” that suggests these aliens might communicate through us rather than just appearing in ships, solving one of Sci-Fi’s greatest challenges–– space travel, even at the speed of light is slow.

Unlike Spielberg’s previous alien films (Close Encounters), as well as other great Sci-Fi movies (Alien), which usually focus on a small group of people or a single family, the teaser suggests a simultaneous global event. The tagline, “This summer, the truth belongs to seven billion people,” hints at a narrative where the entire world learns of extraterrestrial life at the exact same moment.

Now, I would have probably combined two aspects of Sci-Fi: something real and something imagined, using The “God of Chaos” Asteroid: 99942 Apophis, due to arrive on Friday the 13th in April of 2029, a mere 20,000 miles above the Earth. Steve, I’m available for your next film.. I have plenty more where this came from.

This is one I will not miss in the theaters…. as good as my home theater system is.
