Interesting... District 9, War of the Worlds, Independence Day-esque type film... Hopefully it won't be a flop like the last couple of end of the world invasion movies.

When I first saw it I thought it might be a sequel to Skyline... then I finished watching the trailer and realized.. "Hey.. it's just a rip of really disappointing movie..."

On a positive note.  With the way we are burning through our natural resources we won't have to worry about aliens wanting Earth for it's resources. ;)

Except that that is an unfounded statement in almost all cases, like the global warming/cooling hysteria of the past century and a half...

well the plot is probablly gonna suck, as will most of the acting, but if theres enough explosions and combat, it might make up for it

District 9 was easily one of the finest scifi films of the year. If they take the basic story of Skyline and add Blonkamp style filmmaking, they might actually have a good movie on their hands.

A few more District 9 style films would be fine by me.  :D 
Love the long panning-follow style of "Children of Men" too.

Steevo and Vesper had a date to see the movie on Friday.  Maybe they could review it for us.

Oh gosh, it was the bestest evening ever. <3

On a serious note, it was a great movie. It reminded me a lot of a modern remake of Independence Day with a heavy focus on a ground conflict as opposed to a bunch of dogfights, filmed in the style of District 9 (documentary footage, handheld cameras, no sweeping panoramic shots, etc, etc). It's definitely worth seeing, if only for 2 straight hours of realistic loadouts, realistic guns, semi-only shooting, and APCs running over mechanized aliens.
