More grilled cheese from Syfy. No thanks.

What do you expect? It's Luke Goss! He was part of BROS for heavens sake. He's never going to be anything but cheesy.

Way to go Luke; this movie has everyone excited to see it and so glad it is on TV tomorrow night. It will be great to see your work!

@ riocaz You're joking, right? He was great in Blade II and Hellboy II - stole every scene he was in. Good to see him getting a role in this movie.

Luke is an accomplished actor as his roles in blade 2, hellboy 2 etc etc... dont slag him off for being in one of the biggest boybands of all time either, he is a great actor and deserves much more recognition !!

*lol* @riocaz - You do know that some people have more than one talent, right? Luke Goss def is one of them. Lots of movies he appeared in confirm that! And though I'm not a fan of desaster-movies, I bet I'm gonna enjoy this one!

Luke Goss?! Fantastic news! Loved him in Charlie, Blade II and Hellboy II! That guy rocks!!!

Gotta agree with dakalmog & Dubheasa on this one, guys. I thought he did a great job in Blade 2. I was completely blown away by his performance in Hellboy 2. I found myself routing for the damned villain, he was so sympathetic and 3 dimensional. That led me to take a look at some of his other stuff. Most of the time the material ain't half as good as he is, but worth watching because he's so damned good. You should catch him as Frankenstein's creation in the Hallmark version. Outstanding! I for one am so glad he switched to acting. He'll be enjoyable to watch even after the looks have faded because there's talent and substance behind them. I look forward to catching him in Annihilation Earth, and anything else he might be in. Viggo Mortensen used to hold the title of "most underrated actor". Now nobody disputes his prowess in the field. I think Goss is the next to hold that title.

cheessy maybe ... its a tv scifi movie... but H*** arent scifi fans all abit cheessy and campy?!?!

but anyone who slangs an actor for a 20 years past music career when they were teens

and ignores all of their recent successes is more dislusional and misguided

Luke has proven he a great actor... so Im lookin forward to seeing the deepth of character he bring to this movie aswell

My TV is read to record just encase a national emergency strikes and I have to leave my home. I may not leave even for that.lol I love Luke and his list of fab movies are endless only a few have been mentioned though I noticed him in One Night With The King! Bravo Luke keep up the fab work!!!

I am stuck in canada and don't get to see it...YET!! But I am sure Luke is gonna ROCK IT!! He may be underrated right now...but stay tuned the world will soon catch up to what his loyal fans all ready know. YEAH LUKE!! Keep it up...we love ya!!

Looking forward to the new movies, especially Tekken!

Dedicated, focused, talented and fully capable of any lead role given him. I personally have no doubts as to his abilities.
Looking forward to Annihilation Earth and future projects of our guy Luke Goss!!!

How many of these posts are real..I think maybe 3. The rest are bullshitz.

Luke Goss seems to come from the Peter Weller & Robert John Burke school of acting (which is a good thing!). And, according to the TiVo listing for Annihilation Earth, Marina Sirtis is also in the movie.

So, it looks like I'm actually going to watch one of these cheesy Saturday night Siffy movies. (Doesn't mean I'll be able to sit through the entire thing...)

He was a success as a teenager, playing music to match his teenage exhuberance.

But with film Goss has found his true medium. His presence on-screen is magnetic. An ealier post is right - mostly the actor has been better than his material.

Hellboy 2 offered a truly memorable performance - Nuada is an unforgettable character. He did an outstanding job. Hope he makes it into The Hobbit. It would be phenominal to see his work influenced again by Del Toro .... and by Peter Jackson.

hey yeahright
if this posts arent real what or who do you think wrote them? toothfairys? do you think your opinion is the only valid one? therefore any one with a different point of view must be imaginary?
what are you smokin?
and you should at lease share!!!

Luke Goss is amazing in anything he does. I caught him for the first time in Hellboy 2 on DVD this past summer and immediately bought as many of his movies as I could get my hands on.
Personally, I've had my fill of SyFy disaster movies, but this one I'll be tuning into just for Goss. I have a feeling it'll have a bit more substance than the rest.

@hawthorne...many fake posts for sure. Reads like all the fake "we love Defying Gravity" posts that show up on here.

By the way I didn't say anything negative against Luke Goss but I'm also not posting under 20 alias names to say how he is the best actor of all time.

45 Minutes in and so far it's the same cheesy "made for TV" type stuff that's typical on Syfy. Don't get me wrong, fluff is fun sometimes.

'm really looking forward to this "amazing ending" I keep hearing about, but OMG I want to tear my ears off every time I hear Marina Sirtis speak. That is, by far, the WORST southern accent I've ever heard. I took me a couple minutes to even identify that it's supposed to be southern.

She really sounds like Counselor Troi TRYING to do a southern accent (poorly). At times, it doesn't sound like a human language accent at all, but some kind of creepy animal approximating human speech.

I try really hard to see the positive and not trash talk for the sake of trash talking, but even of the "made for Syfy" style production values of this movie, you'd think someone would have said "ok, southern doesn't work for you.." and try something else.

Unless the ending is something amazing, the only thing I'll remember about this movie is that horrible accent.

Boom!

I stayed with it until the end .... "extinction" should have been "finally..."

Good GOD you can not even call this thing a bomb. After all a bomb goes off this sad beast just went on and on and on.

As a big time SyFy channel fan for many years I have to say this is the worst work I have ever seen on this channel. The direction was uninspired, none of the characters were likeable, believable, or showed slightest intellegence. It was truely pitiful. We had a terrorist who's plan was to restore the power of oil to the middle east by destroying the civilization the buys most of the oil. We had scientists that create a scenerio that could destroy the earth and for 10 yrs. never think to analyze how to stop it. Then are rushing again time to find a scientific answer only to stop and help 8 or 10 people who have no reasonable transportation to medical help and waste hours. The writing was pitiful. The dialog reminded me of those old translated Japanese movies where the jokes in Japanese don't make sense when translated to English. What a waste of 2 hours.

Does this mean that the much talked about skills and unbelievable performance by Luke Goss didn't made this the best and most exciting show ever???

Can't imagine that!!!

Bring Back MST3K! Any film this bad REQUIRES two bots to sit with and a Satellite of Love...

As a dedicated sci-fi fan and usual watcher of the Sci-Fi network (not its illegitimate offspring SyFy) I can say with all candor this is the worst piece of crap I've ever partially watched. SyFy is dieing, its management is sacrificing it for money and the sooner it's gone the better. Wrestling is better than the current made-for-tv science fiction movies this dog of a network is airing.

I think it's so ironic the best science fiction on TV today is not on the once proud Sci-Fi network. "Fringe" being a case in point; there are others.

I watched the last hour of this about 2am this morning and it was so bad, I asked my son what her accent was supposed to be. 3 minutes before the movie ended we were laughing about how the best ending of this movie would be true annihilation because of her horrible accent.

Sometimes wishes do come true!

@ yeahright - None of those posts was fake, there's simply a crazy bunch of Luke Goss-fans out there! And our number is growing, mwahahaha! ;D

Just one with multiple personality disorder.

This was a nifty movie for effects and stuff. However, it was really just stupid for the plot and for the obvious rift between greedy westerners and the arab world. Shouldn't we be making films about trying to make peace with these people???

And the entire plot of the movie!? Based on the fact that a simple video or picture was not taken of the terrorist as part of the screening with voiceprint, fingerprint and card access? Why develop the movie with such obvious plot holes in it?

And I love Marina Sirtis......but honestly, forcing her into a role of some stupid dictator bitch from the South or West Virginia (accent)???

Stupidest sci-fi movie of all time. Period. I watched it to understand the plot holes and then hit delete on the TiVo.

wow... I just started watching it on my DVR and laughed so hard I had to pause it. Who was te genius who thouht Marina Sirtis was the ideal choice to play a southern woman? Her accent was so horrid it was funny. They shoudl have changed the character to either let her use her own real accent or let her do one she can actually pull off.

Luke is a very talented man and I love him very much .

Forget arguing about the acting - this movie should have been named “The Killer Teenage Mutant Supercollider That Ate the Earth” or something along those lines. Calling this a stupid movie would be an insult to all stupid movies in existence. There was never a moment of excitement, drama, anticipation, happiness, sadness, or other entertainment quality throughout this dreadful film. There was only the prolonged agony of enduring the immeasurable ludicrous mistakes, the incredibly lazy screenwriting, and the shameful directing that resulted in a truly horrible movie. If I find this DVD on sale for 10 cents, I will buy about 25 of them, toss the discs, and reuse the empty cases (I will be wearing a fake beard and sunglasses so no one at the store will recognize me and get the wrong idea).

Gosh, after reading all those comments I'm REALLY curious to see that movie! Seems to be an interesting experience! LOL

@ yeahright - So following your train of thoughts we seemingly got a case of multiple personality disorder on one side and/or a case of escapism on the other side! Well, who can be called sane these days anyway... ;)

So watching this. I can't wait for Tekken to be released danggggggit!!!

After a brief Christmas vacation which severely limited my television watching, I finally got around to viewing Annihilation Earth last night, and for those of you who were as busy as I enjoying the holidays, I offer this precis of that fine SyFy movie:

KaBoom!
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
flashback:Kaboom!
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
"Oh my God!"
Big KaBoom!
The end.

I was dismayed by the lack of creativity in the dialog as much as I was the plot. For a holiday movie, it was a complete downer, with little to recommend itself. SyFy, you might have changed your name, but the tradition of cheesy Saturday night movies lives on! Oh my...well you get the idea.

Pedantic
