    Solarmass Interesting concept, but rather boring movie without exciting scenes. My favorite scene is the opening of the movie.
    But I only watched it once.

    I wanted to love this as well. I always thought if he (his human version) wanted to talk to her, he was already living in the neighborhood...why pull the long con job on that warrior girl?
    Let me temper that statement by confessing my own ignorance: I came into the movie about 20 minutes late and didn't get everything.

      brent Are you talking about Avatar? (my quote was about Tenet) πŸ˜€

        What about anime?

        • Serial Experiments Lain
        • Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
        • Neon Genesis Evangelion
        • Planetes
        • Cowboy Bebop
        • Ergo Proxy

          Solarmass yeaaahhh, definitely not an Evangelion fan.....

          We could start an entire thread on anime series. Currently watching JoJo's Bizzare Adventure, just finished the current season of Fire Force among others.

            Serial Experiments Lain
            Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex
            Planetes

            I've not finished Ghost in the shell jet and looking forward for the others two, that's a good list you got there sir.

              Brucehankins yeaaahhh, definitely not an Evangelion fan.....

              I am also not (really) a big Evangelion fan, I just love the giant robots fightings!

              Sure, why not πŸ˜€


              BTW wrong thread for the desktop screens πŸ˜›

              nolan I've not finished Ghost in the shell

              which one? πŸ™‚

                D9 engaged me at least. Rough in spots. I liked I am Legend but struggled thru this just like you did for District Nine. Smith and the sets were outstanding but the director and writer were both awful. Like breaking even.

                  brent I kind of lump District 9 and Elysium together. Both amazing movies.

                    nolan @njakes
                    Didn't see Elysium, will look it up. But I did pop in at IMDB I and I see their similarities, and in fact can see the Elysium scenario someday!--very much an allegory like District Nine (...post-apocalyptic is definitely my favorite genre of sci-fi--probably because it has one foot on this terra.).

                      brent District 9 and Elysium were directed by Neill Blomkamp. District 9 is his best movie and also his the first one. Elysium has good special effects, but movie is average...
