We’re gonna need a bigger YES, PLEASE! Are you kidding me with this trailer? Liam Neeson + January Jones + Amnesia + Long Cons + Fake Passports + Fighting + Fancy Hotels + Tyler Durden + The Game = the Fibonachi sequence of movies! Also, can we all agree that even if this movie sucks, the part where he says “I didn’t forget everything” and what he means is that he still remembers how to demolish someone in close quarters hand-to-hand combat is THE BEST PART?! I just hope there is also a part where he says “I don’t know who I am. I don’t know what I want. If I am looking for ransom, you can tell me I don’t have money. But what you do have are a very particular set of skills; skills you have acquired over a very long career. Skills that make you a nightmare for people like me. If I let your wife go now, that’ll be the end of it. You will not look for me, you will not pursue me. But if I don’t, you will look for me, you will find me, and you will kill me.” Fingers crossed.

  1. To have one wife kidnapped may be regarded as a misfortune; to have many wives kidnapped looks like carelessness.

  2. 1. That looks AWESOME!
    2. I’m confused, is January Jones someone we want more or less from?
    3. Diane Kruger!!!

    • IT DOES indeed look AWESOME, BUT I’m also WORRIED THAT at the end the main bad guy IS GOING TO confront Liam in a warehouse and tell him, “It’s love. We wanted to test the love between a husband and wife to understand it. And we almost did it. Wait, I JUST NEED MORE TIME!” AND THEN the movie will end because it has LITERALLY exhausted all of MY PATIENCE.

      • Sounds very Mephisto & One More Day from recent-ish “Amazing Spider-Man,” if you’re into that kind of thing.

        Also, I haven’t seen the whole movie, but this also reminded me of that Harrison Ford movie “Frantic.”

  3. …but women can’t drive taxis?

  4. “Its got Liam Neeson! January Jones! All of the best elements of Taken and Flightplan are brought together to make Unknown one of the most original thrillers of all time.” – Ben Lyons

    • He also said I Am Legend is the greatest story ever told

      • The great thing about the Ben Lyons joke on Community is that it was a double diss. Not only did he say that I Am Legend was “one of the greatest movies of all time,” he also said that Synecdoche, NY was bad because it was “difficult to understand” and “he didn’t get it”. Community picked up on both. The worst x 2= amirite?

        I should cool it with the math disses today.

  5. BET ME BOURNE

  6. Get me Bourne

  7. Taken 2: The Taken Identity

  8. Bing would rather choose Unknown than January Jones. Did Sally grow up to invent Bing?

  9. January Jones really stretching her acting chops there by playing an annoying, conniving snatch of a wife. Wonder what made the producers think of casting her?

  10. Matt Damon looks weird.

  11. I like Diane Kruger because she dates Pacey in real life.

  12. I hope Sally Draper shows up to get in some European masturbating.

  13. “Go bang your head against the wall. Only boring people are bored.”

    I guess she takes her own advice.

  14. I’m Dr. Martin Harris’ sense of Déjà vu

  15. January Jones really has that clenched-mouth, blank-stare thing down.

  16. I like how Liam Neeson is getting all the parts that would have gone to Harrison Ford 10 years ago. Has this been mentioned before? I feel like it has but can’t remember. Voluntary Friday amnesia over here.

  17. I love it when a contrived plot comes together.

  18. I think I’ll just go watch The Net again. “Give us the disc and we’ll give you your life back.”

  19. I didn’t kill my wife!

  20. Couldn’t he just Google himself and find out if he’s who he thinks he is? “Hey, I’m on Facebook! Euch, I like terrible music.”

  21. Just when Harrison Ford got his family back, they had to go and steal Liam Neesons! WILL THE CYCLE NEVER END??!!1?1?!

  22. This identity theft epidemic is really getting out of hand. Liam Neeson, you cant just use one password for your email, bank account, passport, wife, and gala invitation! Luckily, he remembered to keep a fresh one for his karate skills.

  23. + (frantic – rapist pedophile nightmare humans)

  24. A false identity established by a clandestine group is continually filled by brain-washed, disposable sleeper agents, and when one of them is thought dead, he is replaced, so when he shows up alive, they have no choice but to deny his existence and try to eliminate him before he ruins their plans. The plans of the clandestine group, which to him and the audience who follows the movie with him, are believed to be bent on world-domination and destruction, are actually trying to secretly prevent a greater act of violence.
    The “amnesiac” is the biggest threat to the group, the world, and even himself, but he doesn’t know it yet. Then, in a twist ending, he finds out and kills himself to save the world, thus firmly establishing himself as the hero.
    I don’t know if I have it right, but if I do, the trailer gave away too much.
