These Explosions

                      V.O. In a world of lies, one man knows the truth. And he has forty-eight hours to save the only woman which he’ll ever love. Before…the Explosions.

Nicolas Cage running out of a burning inferno which is exploding.

                      V.O. Several Explosions.

Samuel L. Jackson jumping from the roof of a building which then explodes.

Sean Connery running into a building, then back out. The building explodes.

                      V.O. Can they be stopped…these Explosions?

A motorboat crashes onto a dock and heads right for an oil truck. At the last moment, its driver, Sandra Bullock, jumps clear. The motorboat impacts the truck, and both explode.

                      V.O. Safe…for now…from…some Explosions….

A speeding sportscar narrowly misses a brick wall and screeches to a halt. Nicole Kidman climbs out of it, and runs, breathlessly, out of the frame. After a thoughtful pause, the car explodes. Clint Eastwood runs by, narrowly missing Dan Akroyd.

                      V.O. A world of one man, exploding…forty the truth hours eight…explosions…exploding! The woman!

Keanu Reeves leaps from the top of the Eiffel Tower into the awaiting arms of Jennifer Lopez. She puts him down, looks in horror at her blouse, then rips it off and throws it into the air. The blouse and the air explode.

Also some explosions.

A hand flips a switch. The hand is revealed to belong to Olympia Dukakis. She swivels around in her chair to look out upon the grounds, along which runs Harrison Ford, narrowly avoiding a full range of kinds of exploding things.

                      V.O. Could one man maybe stop…These Explosions? This summer? Everywhere?

THIS IS AWESOME. And you like to claim that you don't watch a lot of TV or blockbuster movies.

I see trailers, and that's all you need to see these days to get the best parts. And...the Explosions.
