Check It Out: Mega-Super-Sci-Fi Mash-Up Trailer

DateFriday, July 17, 2009 at 8:03AM
For your Friday viewing pleasure, here's a super mash-up of science fiction movies in one trailer. It goes all the way back to Empire Strikes Back and includes three of this summer's big tickets, Star Trek, Transformers, and Terminator Salvation.

Now, it's not supposed to make any sense contextually, but rather, is just a collection of scenes from some of the best and most recognizable sci-fi franchises. I do wish it didn't completely forget about almost every science fiction movie ever made and would spread it around to Serenity, E.T., 2001, The Matrix, the original Day the Earth Stood Still, Back to the Future, Frankenstein, and on and on. Maybe someone else will take that idea and run with it.

In the meantime, this is pretty well put together, so it's definitely worth watching. But I do get a little tired of seeing the new John Connor and Captain Kirk every ten or fifteen seconds:

Thanks to Big Picture reader Kyle Corley for the suggestion. Incidentally, if you're thinking of making a massive sci-fi devotional mash-up, I think it might be even better to make one of lousy science fiction movies. There are more of those.

Hey, thanks for featuring this. I was actually planning on using most of the films you listed, but due to technical difficultes, could only use the ones I did. I've been itiching to remake this using more films for a while now. Hopefully I can get around to it eventually.
