district 9 and counting…
It is getting near my trip and i'm beyond excited!
This blog is not only to show my excitment, but also to give a few thoughts on a movie I watched last night!
District 9 is an alien action movie. I don't want to get into too much detail as it may ruin the movie for some people, but I just want to point out that throughout the whole movie, it was setting itself up for a sequel. Anyone who has seen the movie, tell me there's not going to be a district 10. Honestly.
That's all the ramblings you're going to get from me tonight. Comment and let me know what you thought of the movie if you've seen it!
All in all I give it an 8.5 out of 10.
