MAPdead · 12-24-2009, 12:06 AM

Okay so these are the 2 biggest Sci-Fi films of the year I enjoyed both films but I was wondering what everyone thinks is the better movie my vote is ....... District 9

MAPdead, convert this into a poll also.

I will probably watch D9 tomorrow so I will be able to judge them both together then.

Both are good.. But Moon is the best of the year by far.

Sussudio · 12-24-2009, 12:11 AM

Lol really...another Avatar/D9 thread?

I vote Avatar! I believe District 9 was a good movie, but its plot seemed way too unbalanced whereas Avatar's felt more focused.

This ought to get REAL interesting!

Haven't seen it but heard good things about it.

SDBlu · 12-24-2009, 12:13 AM

I liked Avatar alot better than District 9. For me there is no comparing.

COMPLETELY agree. I thought it (and Sunshine) were some of the best sci-fi's to come out in the last decade or two.

Voted for Avatar!

Avatar...not even close. I'm not even going to buy D9...worth a watch, but thats about it.

zahinn · 12-24-2009, 12:19 AM

I watched Avatar on SUNDAY
I watched District 9 YESTERDAY
I watched Avatar again TODAY

...

I felt D9 had a much better plot and direction. I liked the realism it brought. Its unique, its new and it didn't have bad dialogue. Avatar was great too. It had good visuals, acting. Cameron's love is present in every scene, but it didn't resonate as much as D9 did.

GeologyNut · 12-24-2009, 12:23 AM

Easy choice, Avatar, hands down.

I felt the same way about D9 it didn't have any big name actors and was made for under 30 Million dollars unlike Avatar that has a rumored 500 Million Dollar price tag.
