Arrival Trailer #1 Posted at 11:31 AM by Dave Post

Arrival is based on Ted Chiang’s novella Story of Your Life and it looks pretty damn good to me.  Finally an original SF movie that’s from a big name author rather than a franchise retread.  This is what we always talk about wanting when yet another Star Wars movie or unfortunate remake of an old classic like The Day the Earth Stood Still fails to impress.  I hope it’s good.  What do you think?

This looks good, a propper first contact movie. I have only read Understand by Chiang, and i loved that short story.

This does look like it has potential… Maybe the success of The Martian opened up some possibilities for ‘real” SF in Hollywood?
