It was good.

[quote name="TAM TAM"]It was good.[/quote]

I thought it was awesome, really like how it was done.

SPOILER

One part of the movie actually made me feel sad for an alien. It's the scene when they're making the mutating hard-on bearer test fire weapons and then they bring in the alien and make him fire at it, I felt like I could really see the alien being scared for his life.

Now I am all ansy-pamsy for sequel...I wish this was real so I could adopt an alien and he could live at my house and be my fellating lover.

i dont see what could be said in a sequel, it would be like the sequels to the matrix movie. bunch of info wrapped around a solid idea.

Teresa · Post by **Teresa** » 19 Aug 2009, 13:37

there has to be a sequel. we gotta know if the dude gets fixed and if christopher ~saves his people~

methodrone · Post by **methodrone** » 19 Aug 2009, 20:43

yeah but takes like 5 minutes and what would the rest of the movie be about? i know, lets expand the storys universe with useless info and conversation.

zim · Post by **zim** » 19 Aug 2009, 21:30

I don't think there will be a sequel but it kind of leaves you wanting one just because it was so good.

correct you are sir. but thats half the enjoyment of movies that dont have sequels. lets you play out the story in your head and have actual discussions with people about it!

methodrone · Post by **methodrone** » 19 Aug 2009, 23:34

you pretty much said what i was thinking on the same subject.

i heard it was "eh". still want to make my own opinion though. unfortunately, i'm easily disappointed with movies these days.

Teresa · Post by **Teresa** » 21 Aug 2009, 00:21

movies have been sucking lately. but not this one.

Shredlord · Post by **Shredlord** » 21 Aug 2009, 05:55

I really liked it. It had a great story line, very creative framing/narrative perspective, and it was very thought-provoking. Some of the violent scenes were a bit over the top, but overall it was excellent.

i downloaded one too and it was not as bad as people had said

what did you think of it nintendo

Ninny · Post by **Ninny** » 24 Aug 2009, 04:35

20 minutes in, this is retarded

I doubt I'll be watching all of this

droidspawn · Post by **droidspawn** » 24 Aug 2009, 09:26

it was not good

zim · Post by **zim** » 24 Aug 2009, 09:28

What didn't you like about it?

droidspawn · Post by **droidspawn** » 24 Aug 2009, 13:00

I would have liked it to focus more on the aliens, their landing on earth, more of their back story and progression throughout the film. It started out ok then switched its focus to Wkus for the majority of the remainder. I mean you have extraterrestrial beings in your movie, explore them!

neckred · Post by **neckred** » 24 Aug 2009, 13:12

i couldn't help but think of Bad Taste when i first heard about this

I agree, that kind of info could have made the whole movie more enjoyable. But I liked it nonetheless.

Anytime I hear the name Peter Jackson all I think about is Bad Taste.. Can't believe I watched all of that.

neckred · Post by **neckred** » 24 Aug 2009, 13:15

i quite enjoy early Jackson

Bad Taste wasn't terrible, it was actually pretty funny. I love the part when the guys pushes his own brains back into his skull and then wraps tape around his head.

i think the reason they didnt go more in to that is because the movie takes place like 20 years after the aliens landed there, so, they've already explored them

TamPron · Post by **TamPron** » 25 Aug 2009, 03:22

I think more will explored in a sequel

supa tuna · Post by **supa tuna** » 25 Aug 2009, 03:30

i think it would be stupid to make a sequel. we've already talked about this and [quote name="hafsteinn"]yeah but takes like 5 minutes and what would the rest of the movie be about? i know, lets expand the storys universe with useless info and conversation.[/quote] is pretty much how i feel about it.

stop making so many damn sequels and re-makes.

heres an idea hollywood, BE FUCKING ORIGINAL!!!!

district 9 was original, but thats the first original movie in how many years?

TamPron · Post by **TamPron** » 25 Aug 2009, 03:39

I think a sequel would be great, and I'm led to this belief by the first one being so good, and they already said that they wanted to do a sequel if this did good, which leads me to believe they already have a good story worked out, and it won't be some slapped together garbage made to cash in on the popularity of the first

besides...Aliens, Predator 2, Empire Strikes Back, Dark Knight, anyone?

supa tuna · Post by **supa tuna** » 25 Aug 2009, 03:42

wow, quoting the few good sequels over the years.

yeah, theres a few good ones, but the list of bad ones is quite a bit longer.

TamPron · Post by **TamPron** » 25 Aug 2009, 04:18

true, but i feel "District 10" will be one of the good ones...and those were off the top of my head

besides, you don't have to go see a sequel if it happens.

methodrone · Post by **methodrone** » 25 Aug 2009, 04:57

but dark knight was a restart of the franchise? because of bad sequels? hehe.

supa tuna · Post by **supa tuna** » 25 Aug 2009, 06:24

i know i dont have to see it, but im gonna, not that simple of a solution. dick.

but the movie wasnt supposed to be about the origin of the aliens. were you upset when alien didnt explain where the aliens came from? or where the predators came from? just roll with it, its a movie. every little detail doesnt need to be explained. besides, thats what books are for.[/quote]

no I wasnt with those movies because to me they kept it interesting throughout, D9 did not do that for me.

supa tuna · Post by **supa tuna** » 25 Aug 2009, 08:38

what about cloverfield?

they never say where "clover" came from. thats actually what i liked the most about that movie.

i'd go see it cause the first one was good, im just saying that ill probably be dissapointed cuase the sequel will suck.

BOOM!

except that it probably wont, assuming the same people will be involved.

rocknrolla · Post by **rocknrolla** » 30 Aug 2009, 11:37

I wanna see this movie... and I think Peter Jackson should get rights to Dante's Divine Comedy.... that would make a bad ass trilogy.

I saw the trailer to Saw 6 today in the theatre and was the only one that said "seriously, another one?"

all fucking sequals should end after 3
