9

I've been watching what's going on with this movie ever since I saw this short film.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=964QHmjLqa0

And here's the trailer
http://www.geekstir.com/watch-the-trailer-for-9

The machines rebelling against humans is rather generic but this movie looks kick ass. I can't help but get Oddworld vibes from the art style for some reason.

This looks pretty smooth. Not sure if I like the story but the animation is top notch for sure!

There's a "I have just seen" thread for a reason.

The movie isn't even out yet so it kinda can't be 'I've just seen'

Read the post before you jump to conclusions

A bit hostile aren't you? Your not contributing to the thread anyway. Why not actually say something about the topic of the thread instead of bitching?

You're new so its likely you haven't noticed, but in general this forum likes to consolidate subjects into single threads when possible, instead of cluttering it up with threads on a single specific subject. I do see how it might not fit in the 'last seen' thread. Perhaps we should make a thread for trailers, then?

I don't really see why we need to have all these kind of group threads. It diverts attention away from a single subject which is what a forum is about.

This topic is made to discuss this particular movie. If no one wants to talk the topic will die, it's that simple. To be honest I find the 'I have just seen' thread a little useless. It's like movie blogging. Everyone says which movie they just saw but no one cares or replies to it, which defeats the purpose of posting it. :S

Same with the TV Shows thread.

Actually I rather like the discussions about TV and movies that go on inside that thread, they evolved, same as the sex thread.

And if one tv show or movie discussion overwhelms the thread, we split it off to be its own thread.

I like the trailer. The robots are Oddworld-esque. The characters are maybe a bit too similar. I can't help thinking that the character '9' is a rip-off of Sackboy. Still, not bad for CGI. Tim Burton kicks ass.
