Check This Out: First Official Teaser Poster for Battle: Los Angeles

Isn't it a little late for something like a teaser poster? ComingSoon has revealed the first official poster for Jonathan Liebesman's exciting new alien invasion movie Battle: Los Angeles starring Aaron Eckhart and a young platoon of Marines. We've seen a couple of badass trailers for this and know what to expect (Black Hawk Down with aliens) but this poster seems like something we should've seen six months ago before any trailers or anything. Now it just seems kind of boring when we already know the action this has in it. Cool imagery, but come on, this is it? I hope we see more cool posters for Battle: Los Angeles soon. Check it out!

A young Marine platoon, lead by Aaron Eckhart, faces off against a surprise alien invasion in Los Angeles.

Battle: Los Angeles is directed by South African-born director Jonathan Liebesman, of Darkness Falls, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning and The Killing Room previously, but he is really breaking out in a good way with this. The screenplay credit, according to IMDb, goes solely to Christopher Bertolini, of only The General's Daughter and Madso's War previously. Sony / Columbia Pictures will be bringing Battle: Los Angeles to theaters everywhere starting on March 11th next year! Who is looking forward to seeing this?

I'm looking forward to this. But didn't Alex say months back that this script was supposed to be really bad and now he's hyping it? What gives?

the douche on Dec 17, 2010

^ What gives? I'll happily explain! Yes, the first script had some bad early reviews two years ago, but I know the director (1) and I know the script has gone through a LOT of revisions since then (2). Also, I've followed the production, been on set, seen a lot of footage, and heard from someone who's seen a finished cut saying it was awesome (3) so based on all of that, it deserves tons of good hype at this point.

(4) kickbacks. I kid.

^ Ha you better be kidding! It's the most laughable, outrageous misconception that anyone in the movie blogging world ever gets paid to have an opinion. We have never been paid for an opinion nor will we ever be, so get rid of that ridiculous idea!

Set aside all of that...this is easily one of the best posters/film art pieces of the year...its dam pretty. The crafts burning up look like they've been painted...then the surfers and (what I assume is) Santa Sonica Pier...nice man...very nice

Indeed I was kidding, Alex. 🙂 @#8, agreed whole-heartedly, this is an excellent poster... it says so much with so little. Danger, and people who simply aren't ready for it. I like that the people are in silhouette as well -- I don't know if the designer was trying for this, but the silhouettes almost seem to say that these people are already gone. Also I like that nobody is pointing up at the sky in the ridiculous "WTF is THAT?!?" pose that a real person would never use in real life.

This poster is amazing!!! i don't get it, why are you saying it's a little late for this? The movie doesn't come out till march, there's still plenty of time. I prefer this to a studio that hypes a movie 2 years prior to its release, then it comes out and is awful.

Um...where's Malibu, Pacific Palisades, and the Santa Monica Mountains?

I like it...trailer played in front of The Fighter and even though I've seen it a thousands times it gets better with each viewing.

Very cool poster,can't wait.

tir na nog on Dec 18, 2010

The poster looks epic and creepy.

Fisherr on Dec 18, 2010

The dude from Hidden Palms is in this movie, yo! I have to see it, plus who doesn't love the loveman?

Lincoln on Dec 18, 2010

Love this poster! BLT knocks it out of the park yo.

Don't think it's too late really. Theres different levels of movie fan. Some read sites like this and watch every trailer going, some aren't aware of anything until they see some posters like this. No harm catering to all audiences. Very few people I know would even be aware of this movie

Ross on Dec 19, 2010

Sweet! I just actually got this poster from my brother. He works for a company that makes the movie posters for bus stops and theaters.

Pfox on Dec 20, 2010

Pfox...who is your bro? Does he work at BLT? Or a printing company?
