District 9

I've said it before, and i'll say it again. It'll be shit. They all turn out to be shit. No matter how much hype there is. It'll be shit.
 
I don't think it's going to work from what I've heard. The aliens get treated badly by the humans as if they're inferior...never mind their vast technological superiority.:hmm: That alone is going to ruin it for me.
 
But the aliens are meant to be just some worker aliens that got left behind by their leaders/masters.......

I think...

That works the other way for me. It highlights the superiority complex of the human race. Life follws art ect.

It's a very strong allusion to SA recent history in general and District Six in particular. Got to be understood in that context.

Tis a bit of a shame its been marketed largely as a Peter Jackson flick. I mean the young saffa guy (whos younger than me which makes me feel a bit useless) wrote and directed it.

Is that a Producer's job then? To just add his name to it to get it financed?
 
Watched this last night aftert finding a torrent which had English subtitles for the Aliens.

Best big movie of the summer, pisses all over Terminator Salvation and Transformers 2.

I will definatly being to the Cinema to watch this on the big screen. :)
 
Saw this last night. Bloody BRILLIANT. Really, really good. Funny, gross in places, and not the stock ending I'd thought there would be.

Go see!
 
i saw it at the weekend. it was pretty good.
i would have seen it at the cinema if it came out at the same time over here.
i am impatient

I think you will be wrong about this one.

I'm still thinking about how good it was, so refreshing to have a decent action movie that isn't set in the US. In fact only the second half is really action, the first half is excellent and there isn't even a shot fired!!

Go and see this film! :)
 
Seemed to be fairly well done overall visually, storyline had holes in it tho and wasnt really gripped to find out what happened next. Seemed to have more potential than was delivered.
 
I saw it over the weekend. The first...third? or so is EXCELLENT. The middle is okay. The last 45 minutes meandered into predictable, excessive-shoot-em-up, everything-belabored-endlessly, make-room-for-the-sequel land.

It's worth seeing.
