Two New Viral Videos For “Battle: Los Angeles” Dan Koelsch, October 1, 2010 Out of all the exclusive film footage I saw at Comic-Con, the scene shown for Battle: Los Angeles was one of the best. The Columbia Pictures film follows a marine platoon that has to go back into Los Angeles after a massive alien attack. We’ve covered the film’s limited viral campaign so far, and now we have two videos from io9. The first is actually a bit old, but it shows a behind-the-scenes street set from the film, which was shot in Louisiana. The second comes from actor Kevin West, where he talks about the alien invasion. Take a look after the break. I’m a bit skeptical about the second video, as it is a few months old, and West is not credited as being in the film. I’m also surprised that they were shooting the film as early as October 2009. What do you all think? You can see Battle: Los Angeles, which stars Aaron Eckhart and Michelle Rodriguez, on March 11, 2011. Viral News Viral Videos Battle: Los AngelesViral video
