Just finished seeing District 9 for the first time.

Yeah I know I'm late, but it was the best movie I've seen in a while. I felt sad for teh Prawns.

Yeah it was great. I remember thinking to myself "hey, this is better than Independance Day."

Yeah, I really liked it.

That movie is awesome, I agree.

I've never seen it, but it sounds like a shame on you evil humans/white people movie. You know, either the aliens represent blacks or other minorites or they represent the earth. And the bad humans are being mean to them.herpderp9000

I hate that kind of movie as well, and "District 9" does have a bit of that tone, but it doesn't come anywhere near the arrogance and hypocrisy of "Avatar". At least the guy in "District 9" didn't like living as an alien. The guy in "Avatar", on the other hand, is shown rejecting his filthy American/Caucasian humanity so that he can go live with the blue Indians who are at one with nature and whose crap doesn't stink.

District 9 was my favorite movie of 2009. I have it on blu-ray now.

District 9 is a great movie. It does have that "humans are bad" tone especially when it comes to MNU scientists and soldiers. But it wasn't solely towards white people, lets not forget the Nigerian gang who referred the aliens as "demons" and they wanted to gain their powers (aka the epic alien weaponry) by eating them. All that aside, its a great movie. Reminds me of Resistance in some ways :P

... and whose crap doesn't stink.

I enjoyed it greatly. We need more movies with Sharlto Copley in them. :xSeraphimGoddess

I'll watch any movie he's in as long as he says the "F" word at least three times.

Agreed. :lol:

Great movie, I need to see it again, only seen it once at the theaters - I went to see Takers yesterday and I need something to wipe that trash from my memory.

Definitely one of my favorite sci fi films, and I think it should have been a contender for Best Picture. It blew me away the first time I saw it, and was more enjoyable than Avatar for me.

Great movie, but I expected more considering that it's from the same guy who directed The Lord of the Rings. :PHexagon_777

One of the most overated movies I've seen.

That movie sucked.

Except he didn't betray them.. He betrayed a corporation, not humankind..

wikus was a amazing actor. the movie would have been nothing without him. his accent is second to none.

Yeah that was my favorite movie of 2009

I thought it was one of the top movie that came out that year.

honestly one of my favorite movies this past decade.

the growth of the human character in that movie was awesome, the action excellent, and the social commentary was blunt but entirely believable and not preachy at all imo.

I am sure I have some friends who still haven't seen the movie. Can't wait to force it on them! :D

One of my favorties.

I liked it:8/10.

Wikus "Sweetie Man" Van De Merwe is now one of my favorite fictional characters.

Here's a video of him trying to find Charlize Theron:

That was a great movie, but it got off to a bad start with the news coverage format for the begin was kind of boring.

that movie is great because a guy gets shot with a pig

HE GETS SHOT WITH A PIG! /thread

It was ok. Didn't like it that much though.super_mario_128

*Achkheem* = WIN

Whenever I hear about this movie I think of the Hunger Games.

I still haven't seen it. :|

Not that I dislike it though. I just haven't got around to it.

still havent seen it yet. sadly
