city 17 was a prison city, in that you can not leave.

District 9 is a prison city in that you can't leave.

District 10 was a Concentration camp, as mentioned in the movie, and is thereby a prison.

Nova prospekt was a prison.

This too.

And the dude in D9, was like gordon freeman, in that he was some random nerdy guy who got thrown into this whole mess against his will and forced to fight for his life, and ultimately ends up working to save the people who ultimately wanted to kill him before. then again I suppose I could give the same analogy with Jesus, optimus prime, and Neo.


--edit--
Also this isn't really taking anything away from the movie, only adding to it.


nitpick alert: Optimus Prime WAS the autobot leader, he never really fought for people trying to kill him.
Besides that small nitpick:
The movie looks good, I think I might rent it when it comes out on dvd.
So, don't spoil the plot for me. Or do spoil it, I don't really care.
But yeah, I want to see it.

Its worth seeing on the big screen at least once, just see it when tickets are cheaper (i have a theater near me that mon-thurs, tickets are always 4.50 all day, and fri/sat/sun, its 4.50 before 6, unfortunately there's only ever like 2 showings before 6 of anything.

its worth it.

Miles lives in Cleveland, Ohio and has theatres near him that sell tickets at cheap prices. Not sure if they're matinee or what.

Cleveland Ohio? lol, I think I know what theater he's talking about. I forget what it's called, but I've been there a few times.

Sounds like this ghetto place in an Old Town district in my city where they play one movie the whole week :|

theres a ton of them, the apollo, ridge park square, the parma theater. Ridge park square on weekdays & before 6 on weekends is 4.50, otherwise there like 8.50-9 bucks. and if you know where it is, then you probably live out here. thats frightening in its own way.

No one cares about your theater. This thread isn't about your theater, it's about District 9.

Excellent movie.
I particularly liked the scenes of the two escapes from the gang members.
But they entirely ruined the RPG scene with the previews. The moment I saw he was carrying a RPG I just thought "well, that's gonna happen".

Unless you have an intense home theater system, this is exactly the kind of movie you should see in theaters. It's going to look great, sound great, and be great. Watching it at home is a waste.



I saw it in theaters. It's all you said and more.

A sequel would be a damning sin upon the Human race.

Excelent movie. Wikket? Vicktit? Whatever his name was goes down as the most abused character in film making.

I like how they developed his character from a bumbling idiot to a desperate fugitive. He was quite likable.

Though I disliked how ridiculously evil the MNU was.

I ♥♥♥♥ love this movie, it had action, comedy, scifi, drama and was on an epic scale. It was so good that at one point I almost cried. And I've only cried to 4 movies so far. Cast Away, The Lion King, Grave of the Fireflies and Pay it Forward.
