No. The aliens that harvested the planet millions of years ago to create a rich rich rich supply of oxygen will return to collect their bounty. Unfortunately, when they return, they'll realize that a certain species has spoiled their prize, filling the air with 30% dirt, 10% smog and 2% chemical agents. They'll (try to) destroy the planet, hoping to start over again.
And then at the very end of the movie, a man (in Cuba)will be running through a dense cloud of grass, trees and brush. He is yelling erratically (in subtitles): "No, you best not have destroyed this! I spent 35 years on this! You best not have destroyed my retirement money you alien s!"
He reaches a shed. He breaks the door with his shoulder, and inside are bottles of wine, nourished since the 1960s. The audience realizes the parallel to this extraterrestrial invasion.The end.
but the movie looks very dumb. Too dumb to miss.

That's because her boyfriend bought her some of those expensive cookies that help against fleas and make the fur soft and smooth.

I'm really looking forward to watching this film on the première night. I'm following their fake account on Twitter, and even signed up for the newsletter. Why?
First because Roland Emmerich is finally going to destroy Brazil this time, and I even had goosebumps watching Christ the Redemeer being torn apart in the trailer. Finally! Whenever aliens attack, the weather goes nuts, or there's a zombie outbreak, it always happens in East (seldom South) Asia, Europe, or North America. We too want to see hell breaking loose in our backyard too, and I really hope he remembers to destroy something in Africa too (the pyramids would be a nice pick). I loved "28 Days Later" and "28 Weeks Later", but it was so restricted to Europe it wasn't even funny.
And, also, because the end of times is by far the most fascinating (and underrated) idea in the "West". I don't think most people are even aware of the impact the idea of the apocalypse has had in our society. This linear eschatology we're used to is ubiquitous in our culture, from Anti-Christ fearing hardcore Christians to atheist Marxists waiting for the proletarian heaven on Earth. It was in the roots of many modern ideas (from freedom of the press to contemporary democracy), and gave us our notion of historicity (classically, even if other peoples expect the world to end, it is supposed to be recreated soon after that). Newton thought he was living in the last of days. So did Columbus, and many other thinkers that changed the history of the world until very recently. No matter how shallow the plot is, there's something deeply cathartic about seeing the world/a continent/a country being destroyed, and it's so central to our country that we do understand all the magic behind that.
Finally, I like to see stuff being blown to pieces on the screen, and I really can't think of anything else I truly enjoy from American cinema. I hope it's as exaggerated as Die Hard 4 (which I adored!) and "The Day After Tomorrow"
