Another New DAY THE EARTH STOOD STILL Poster

Another new The Day The Earth Stood Still poster, this time for the international release, has popped up.

This one seems to stress a little more action, with jet fighters screaming towards the mysterious spherical object above New York City. Is this an indication that the filmmakers have infused more action into the film, moving it away from the more thoughtful and character-orientated take of the original? Or is the studio trying to sell it as a big, Independence Day-like science-fiction extravaganza in order to get butts into seats? Either way, this film is going to have to be monumentally incredible in order for me to believe that remaking the original 1951 Robert Wise-directed classic.
