alien invasion genre movies discussion

[Trent Roman]

Well, even Rodriguez has to bow to convention sometimes. If he'd been more explicit with the nudity in that relatively lengthy scene, even though largely non-sexual, the shadowy cabal at the MPAA might have denied him the 'R' rating. (Or it's also possible the actress simply didn't feel comfortable going that far.)

Fictitiously yours, Trent Roman

I read an interview with the actress, Laura Harris. It was her idea.

No specific reasons are given for the halt, but a couple speculative reasons are mentioned. Read on!

Mars Attacks is my favorite from this genre.

I just saw Skyline.

Yet again, an alien invasion movie where no one says the word "alien" the whole time!

^ I was interested before tonight. But based on some really bad reviews. Nope.

Anyways with that list. Seen two of those films. Need to see Alex Proyas' Dark City again.

Was The Faculty the one with the slug people?

 

[Morpheus 02]

I just saw Skyline.

Yet again, an alien invasion movie where no one says the word "alien" the whole time!

So was it worth watching on the big screen? or waiting for Netflix/RedBox?

I'd give it a 6.5/10

I really don't think it needs to be seen on the big screen.
Spoilers if you'd like?

The Hidden had slug people. Don't know about The Faculty.

I love The Faculty. It takes itself just seriously enough to be a really enjoyable movie.
