'THE CALL UP' SF TRAILER
PLAY TO SURVIVE!
The only trailer I have for you today is for sf action movie THE CALL UP! When a group of elite online gamers each receive a mysterious invitation to trial new virtual reality video game, it’s a dream 
come true and impossible to resist. Arriving at the test site, the group members step into hi-tech gear and prepare for a revolutionary gaming experience that brings modern warfare to life with frightening realism.
At first it’s a unique and exhilarating experience. But what starts out like a dream encounter with cutting edge technology quickly takes a turn for the sinister. Once they are attacked by enemy combatants, the player soon realizes this is no game after all. Make a mistake here, and you pay with your life. Now these masters of the shoot ‘em up will have to fight for survival within a game gone bad, but this time it’s for real.

I do like Kevin James...in most things!
ReplyDeletehe was nice in that sitcom with Leah Rimini, even though the comedy itself was a bit stale
DeleteBoth of those series look cute. I need to get off crappy reality TV and find a series I like.
ReplyDeleteyou must :) I haven't watched a reality programme in years, but then again I don't have a telly
DeleteI love Kevin james! I have to see that one. That seems like a role he'd play real well. Idk why, but I could totally see him as a retired cop in real life!
ReplyDeletehe does like to wear uniforms :)
DeleteStart Up sounds interesting.
ReplyDeletecould be intriguing
Delete"The Call Up" should go over big with the younger set. They're not that far away from virtual reality and I fear what will become of humanity when they do. I think some people would choose to do the worst possible things in a virtual world. We're already going down the toilet, virtual reality could just be the final flush :)
ReplyDeletewe already have virtual reality created by the media and Western news channels... they paint it the way they want to and that is how the wars are lead nowadays
DeleteThe dumbing down of students in the Western world has made this possible. In England, in Ireland and in US history either isn't taught or it's been revised. And they don't teach critical thinking anymore-that's just not done. It's even in the Universities. Where the Spawn goes it's appalling and it's way too easy.
Deletethat was always the goal, to dumb down the mob so that they can think and speak instead of them. Robots, dahlink, all of them will be robots, and you and me will have to lead the rebellion :)
DeleteWe might catch the Kevin James one, if nothing else pops up that grabs our interest.
ReplyDeletethat is what I'm thinking too.
DeleteI am of course looking forward to the ScFi! Don't watch too many sitcoms around here but that sounds kind of interesting
ReplyDeletesadly, the studio has taken down the trailer it seems and I can't find another one :(
DeleteSadly the trailer isn't showing up but the premise sounds promising.
ReplyDeleteas I say in the comment above yours, the studio has pulled it down :(
DeleteNo game after all? I didn't see that one coming....
ReplyDeletethey did sense you coming probably....
DeleteGood one.
Deletealways
