The "5th Wave" Trailer Has Us All Like (O.O)

It's coming. Based on the best-selling novel of the same name, The 5th Wave movie is hitting theaters everywhere in January 2016.

Here we have the Sullivan family, just heading out for another day.

"Don't get caught," the mom and kids say to Dad. What, caught at work? Haha, oh that Dad, always working so hard.

But it's not just a normal day. There's a mysterious object in the sky.

Like, a really big mysterious object.

Those spikes protruding out of the bottom don't exactly scream "we come in peace."

Which has us like:

So...this isn't a lighthearted family comedy, huh.

Naturally, the military gets involved.

Look at them go — they got this.

Until the mysterious sky object knocks out Earth's power.

"NVM." —The military

And we're all like:

Maybe the aliens just want us to live a more ~natural~ existence...?

Massive earthquakes start happening.

We find out that the aliens, known as the Others, are launching "waves" of attacks on Earth. This is the "Second Wave."

Which causes literal waves.

So it's a bit more like using nature to extinguish our existence, but OK.

And a disease is unleashed that kills off a bunch of the remaining survivors.

This is the "Third Wave."

So we're like:

Wow, these aliens have no chill.

Turns out the Others can inhabit human form.

The "Fourth Wave."

And now we're like:

WELL WHO DO WE TRUST NOW!?

They've also taken the youngest Sullivan.

IS HE NOW ONE OF THEM TOO?

So our protagonist, big sis Cassie, sets out to get him back.

And she's not messing around.

Which has us like:

Damn girl.

On top of that, there are explosions.

There's action.

Check out that pistol whip. Action AF.

And there's romance.

'Cause nothing gets the hormones flowing more than post-apocalyptic scenarios, TBH.

Is that Nick Robinson? *Fans self*

And by the end of it all, we're just like:

Dead. Literally dead.
