The feel of this clip and some of the content will be familiar from some of what we have seen in the trailers, playing as it does on various historical “sightings”, archive newsreel footage and interviews with military and scientific personnel. It is all intended, it seems, to add to the verisimilitude of the film, which has long put itself forward as being Black Hawk Down with aliens. The idea of background features that expand on the world as portrayed in the film worked very well with the “Gotham Tonight” clips that preceded The Dark Knight and this clip feels similarly effective.
Enjoy the clip below. Not long to wait now!
