I still don't think it will be a good as the first. Not since they changed the invading army to be North Korea instead of China.

i remember when they were calling it red dawn 2011 lol

Looks promising

Apocalypse When? as it was called.

Looks pretty bad ass! Jeffry Dean Morgan is a badass, glad they got someone good to play the part that was originally by Powers Booth. [Beer]

North Korea is a legitimate fear of the U.S. Government.

Well, a reunified Korea under North Korean Regime is the legitimate fear.

I'm looking forward to it, although I am a little disappointed that it isn't the Chinese which is certainly more plausible than the North Koreans, who's missiles crash after a few feet and they don't have the ability to warm the huts along the DMZ without starting fires next to the brick.

PRK a legitimate threat: absolutely
From invasion: absolutely not

It would be more realistic for Canada to invade than the North Koreans. The oringinal movie had communist coalition invading the U.S. consisting of seveal Central/South American countries and the Soviet Union. A somewhat plausible scenario.

But PRK invading U.S. on there own--laughable.

The changing of the plot was for PC purposes and to market the film in Asia. So they killed the plot to try and make more money... This is why I think the movie isn't going to live up to its potential.

China has almost the entire world in a financial strangle hold. They have no need to invade.

PRK might not seem plausible, but they have that "something to prove" mentality that might push them in desperation to try it.

... and be vaporized somewhere in between Hawaii and Japan.

I do agree about China. They would actually lose to much money in commerse if they tried to invade the U.S.

The original plot was about China invading as a "foreclosure" on all the debt the U.S. owed them. I thought that was an interesting plotline.

Maybe somekind of Asian coalition might work like in Tomorrow, When the War Began, but not PRK by themselves. I guess we'll just have to wait until the movie comes out to see how they explain everythin...
