it's funny... when i stare at my dashboard, i have nothing in mind to blog about.
and then, when i have things i would like to blog about, i wouldn't be here. i'd be somewhere away from my laptop, and by the time i returned, "what was it i wanna blog again?" or "lazyyyyyyy".
anyways since i'm here, perhaps i'll try to improve my blog's appearance? lol...

My Movie Review for District 9
SPOILER ALERT!! SPOILER ALERT!!
Don't read this if you don't wanna XD
well, obviously it's a movie bout aliens. it's more like a semi-documentary, with those interviews...
the setting is Johannesburg, where an alien mothership got stalled. humans then forced entry into the ship, and brought the aliens there down to earth to be refugees. what was a refugees' camp soon turned into a slum, and it was named District 9. the co-existence between man and alien was somewhat peaceful at first, till some incidents and unhappiness occurred (well, happens in every multiracial state), and the humans want the aliens out. so then begins the resettlement of the aliens to a place outside of Johannesburg. this is where the main plot really starts.
this story is not about a war, human abducted (there's alien abducted instead) nor is it like any other alien movies i've watched before, where they come to conquer our planet, eat us, or play with us. it's a story of how the aliens got stuck on earth, being discriminated, how they survived in District 9, how 2 of them planned their escape back to their home planet (since the past 20 years), and how one man went against all odds to set things right again, hoping to return to his normal life and family. this movie also show some of humans' nature, as well as the aliens' too. humans are more evil in this movie. it shows greed, arrogance, self-centeredness, foolishness, cowardice, betrayal, cover-ups, and finally, a change of heart (and i thought it wouldn't occur). an alliance was made between a representative of both worlds to help each other out. and a promise.
in the end, i have 2 questions in my head. perhaps, a sequel?
