WATCH THE NEW TRAILER FOR BABYLON A.D. AFTER THE JUMP 

The new trailer for Vin Diesel’s latest Xtreme thrill ride Babylon A.D. begins with some awesomely brainless exposition (delivered by Vin Diesel, who sounds like he accidentally inhaled a stud belt):

Save the planet… What for?  Life’s simple: kill or be killed.  The Survivor’s Code.  My code.  And it all sounds great until the day you find yourself confronted by a choice…  A choice to make a difference… or to walk away and save yourself.   I learned something that day.  Too bad it was the day I died. 

Hate Vin Diesel all you want, you can’t deny he occupies a unique action movie niche.  Other actors might shoot people, blow stuff up, take their shirts off and act sullen, but only Vin Diesel kills bad guys while riding a snowmobile, or grinding a rail on some rollerblades, or skysurfing.  He stares death in the face and says, “Hey, bro.  Heard the new Linkin Park album?”  And then he punches it in the face!  OO WHA A AA AA!
