Annihilation (2017)

Good news for many of the people on here that enjoyed Ex Machina, the Director of that film, Alex Garland is reteamng with Oscar Isaac on a new film called "Annihilation". It is described as a film where a team embark on a dangerous expedition where the laws of nature don't apply.

I'm guessing it's sci-fi.

Oscar Isaac Reteams With ‘Ex Machina’ Director Alex Garland For ‘Annihilation’

I enjoyed Ex Machina quite a bit, man that glass house reference he gave her was great.

Wasn't a huge fan of Ex Machina, but I still thought it was enjoyable. I like Garland's work so I'll give it a shot.

Same here.

I'd encourage anybody to read the trilogy this film is based on. Jeff Vandermeer's Southern Reach books are legit. Good throwback to gothic era of horror fiction with some pretty ****ed up sci-fi leanings. 10/10.

Absolutely love that this film seems to be heavily influenced by Tarkovsky's great films, "Solaris" and "Stalker," (especially Stalker) both cerebral, sublime pieces of science fiction in their own right that truly can be called mind bending works of art. So much to love here and grasp with this trailer. The weird, at times horrific imagery on display here is just absolutely enthralling if you ask me. I have not read the books on which this is based but I've heard really great things. Cannot wait to see this come February.

I'm intrigued...

I hope the movie is at least half as good as the trailer!

Loved Book 1
Liked Book 2
Hated book 3

Book 1 was so good, though

Eh... I don't know what to make of that.

Looks cool.
I loved Ex Machina, so I'm hoping this'll be an interesting movie.

Movie is definitely taking concepts from the books and expanding on them, in much more interesting ways. May be one of those rare times when an adaptation is far superior to the source material.

I am definitely pumped to see this one!

Haven't read the books, some good sci-fi coming out lowkey.

Ex-Machina was fantastic, definitely seeing this one.

Seeing this tonight very intrigued. Try to see it yesterday , was a bit late and got stuck in the "black Panther line " for tickets so we ended up just leaving.
