Why Edge Of Tomorrow Might Be A Cliche
Where have we seen "the time loop/alien apocalypse" before - this is the question we should be asking ourselves!

1. Coming out from the Japanese novel, All You Need is Kill. The movie's title could have been edgy right?

2. The exoskeleton mask is the same as the one in Call of Duty (video game).

3. Remember Starship Troopers? Edge of Tomorrow has no creepy bugs pumping out sickly sentimental sticky fluids when killed, but still it has aliens and the similar exoskeleton suits.

4. Alien invasions
Like War of the Worlds with nasty alien enemies.
Battle: Los Angeles, where the aliens tryed to take Earth's water supply.
Or battling the Kaiju's from Pacific Rim with special weapons and whatnot!
5. We may see some James Bond action too. Maybe some played out car-chase action sequences.
Can you do it like James Bond?
Doing it like Tom Cruise is easy.
6. Let's talk about the time loop concept. We have seen something like that in Jake Gyllenhaal's Source Code.
Edge of Tomorrow.
Source Code.
And Groundhog Day where Bill Murray would find himself living the same day again and again.
Edge of Tomorrow is hitting theaters this Friday so suit up in your exoskeleton suits and check out if the movie would 'cruise' or be 'blunt.'
