Unfortunately, they are also a threat to the US, both militarily and economically. Thankfully there are people who understand this and do their part to prevent it. You are welcome.


No doubt they would cause a ****ton of carnage early on, but yes the technology would overcome their millions


Even more quickly if we busted out the nukes

Even if your belief is true (it isn't) then they are at the very least an enormous economic threat to the US. What do you think an invasion of South Korea would do to our economy?

There are 48 million people in South Korea, 21 million in the area around Seoul. There are also many millions more nearby in Japan and China. Seoul, Tokyo, Shanghai and Beijing are among the largest cities in the world. Nukes would not be an option.

Judging by the few videos out there I think the premise is they nuke the poo out of us and it just leaves the middle, but I could be wrong.

That's what I never got about the original, what the hell happened to the retaliatory strike?


You can't tell me they got every single sub, silo and bomber in their first strike

Not to mention the tac nukes

Especially since most of the nukes are in silos in the middle of the country, the part not damaged by Soviet nukes in the movie.

It was an entertaining movie, but you really had to work to suspend disbelief. Everything in that movie was far-fetched. The invasion, a bunch of untrained kids outwitting the Soviet army, everything was far-fetched. I assume the new one will be the same.

They filmed this at least two years ago. It must be a real turd. The state of Michigan gave producers heavy incentives to film in Michigan. Gov. Snyder did away with the incentives shortly after he took office in 1/11. The libs went ape over Snyder's actions but two balanced budgets later and an improving economy in the state of Michigan have made them forget about the glam and glitz of Hollywood.

Yea, this was one of the films made by MGM a few years ago and hasnt been released due to their legal problems.

If i remember right, the Original bad guy was China, but then they deciced against it and just CGI'd over everything and made them North Korean. Its most likely crap since its been complete so long and languished, but I guess Cabin in the Woods turned out pretty good and that was another lost MGM flick.

It never should have been made.

Properly done (CASTING! CASTING! CASTING!) it might have made it's money back...

I didn't realize there were nukes used in the first one. However, I will soon find out. I was talking to my kid about this and decided to buy the original on DVD. Getting it from Amazon.

They finally have a trailer out. Judge for yourself

Just...bad.:shake:

Abercrombie model-insurgents without a hair out of place fighting an invading force of...North Koreans?




North Koreans? Did they say...NORTH KOREANS? ... Invading the continental United States? Riiiiight...

This movie will make less money than ''Battleship'.

They pussed out and changed it from the Chinese. China makes sense.

NK is a ****ing joke.

Then again, when you think about it, so is Cuba or Mexico being part of an effective invasion force...
