And it comes out 6/6/06. People are saying since 666 is the devils number somthin' will happen..any believers? Any ideas?
Well I dont really believe this. :D
Yeah, I saw that trailer when I went to see Ultraviolet. Not a horrible concept, but I'm going to need a tad more information that the anitchrist looks odd in red and can swing. I'm sure there will be a better trailer later.
06/06/06? I smell a gimmick.
That looks interesting. the part where the boy just stares at you made me laugh. :D
It's just plain creepy and I have no desire to see it whatsoever. It gives me an icky feeling.
Is this like 9/9/99 where it was supposedly just 66/6/6 upside down and the Omega Code was released? Or like the year 2000? Or like the year 2001? Or like every other year just more conviniently appealing for a marketing ploy?
EDIT: I watched the "trailer"...wow, a little boy on a swing.

absolutely no need to remake this film unless it's a completely different story with the same title
I enjoyed the original, so I'll probably go see this one, though likely it wont be as good.
As for something happening on the release date because of the numbers, sounds pretty ridiculous. It's amusing how people get so worried over dates.
I'd jus tlike to bring up the fact that 666 is the numbe rof the beast, which probably refers to the evil emperor Nero who persecuted Christians mericilessly. Doesn't have much to do with Satan in all actuality.
EDIT: Don't believe me. I'm an idiot. I just reasearched it and it could mean any number of thing. That's what I was taught in school though.
I find it humorous that 6-6-6 would be for 2006. Like that makes any farking sense at all.
And that trailer is dumb. The Omen isn't well known enough for them to just show a kid on a swing, show 666, neglect to show a title and expect people to get it.

I know that Slayer as well as some other metal bands of the like are doing an Unholy Trinity tour with a show on the exact same day, and the kids I hear talking about it pointed out the same thing.
I haven't actually watched the trailer. Heh.
I watched the original 3 so this one should be interesting.
It will just be a big advertising gimmick.Quote:

Something with the dates was going on with Arnie's devil movie "End of Days." It came out 9/9/1999 and there was a poster with the release date upside down so it read 666. Clever, but pointless.
I have never seen any of the other Omen movies.
But. That would be 666166...
