    Aside from that one thing, this looks like ARSE. ARSE ARSE ARSE.

    Also did she say "Eva"?

    Looks pretty cool, I had heard about this last year but had zero interest until watching the trailer as I assumed it would be more of a low budgeted b-movie.

    That... computer... voice...

    Please. Valve called, they asked for their audio files back.


    Otherwise, looks interesting as a forget where I am for 1-2 hours movie. :D

    I was as surprised as you, until I found out that GDT is a fan of Portal and asked us if it was cool. <a href="http://kotaku.com/5951086/guillermo-del-toros-next-movie-has-a-little-glados-in-it" target="_blank">http://kotaku.com/5951086/guillermo-del-to...le-glados-in-it</a>


    I like it, but I'm a bit biased.

    I think it's kinda cool... but dunno. I'll have to see how the glados voice fits in with the movie theme etc.
    It fits portal, but the few clips with the audio in it in this trailer, just seem weird. :s

    I think it is just the audio editors being lazy, I hate it when I am watching a movie and I hear a sound effect from Half-Life 2 or the same scream I have heard in a dozen other movies (not just the Wilhelm scream, but that is annoying too)

    It is a little distracting to say the least.

    It probably fits fine in the film (if it's actually in the film), but using it so heavily in the trailer just screams "Hey look we're making a reference! Please pay attention!"

    I have to imagine it's way more of an effort to, on the whim of the director, ask for valve's blessing and then hire the same VA to do the voice. Obviously as an original IP they already have the rest of the resources to fill everything else out.
