Kids Shoot The Darndest Things

This season of 24 is going to open with a made for TV movie? This is the trailer?

This looks like a joke. Like someone was hanging out in their friend's room watching Hillary Clinton's concession speech on YouTube and decided to make a 24 parody, and just happened to have access to a 75 dollar budget and Kiefer Sutherland. I do like the part where he points a gun at a child's head. I know that he was protecting himself from a child soldier, who had his own gun pointed at Sutherland, but still, you guys. That means that he was ready to blow that kid's fucking head off. "I know you're scared, I also know that I am ready and willing to turn your face into a nightmare."

At least I learned that there are degrees of imminence.

Is the regular voice-over guy sick or something? It sounds like they got a nervous intern to do it.

I am pretty sure that was a fan made trailer. Using footage from the actual trailer.

The fact that the Requiem For A Dream music was used should be key giveaway, 24 has its own score/composer, so they wouldn't use licensed material.

Oh and the 14 year old voice over and the terrible editing.

They already made 24: The Movie. It was called The Sentinel and it was pretty crappy.

It reminds me of the time Janet Reno had the gun trained on Elian Gonzales in that closet in Miami. "I know you're scared, but you'll live better in Cuba!"
