Description:Week three of our alien invasion franchise. Luke, Chris, and Peter take on the most politically charged film in the series. District 9 flips the alien invasion on its head. The aliens have been here for 20 years and humanity's response isn't wonder, isn't spectacle, it's a refugee camp, barbed wire, and forced relocations. Neill Blomkamp grew up during apartheid in South Africa and made a $30 million sci-fi film that holds a mirror to everything from immigration policy to corporate exploitation to what happens when the "other" has nowhere left to go. Peter Jackson gave a first-time director full creative control after their Halo movie collapsed. The lead actor had never acted before. Every alien in the film is played by one guy. And the whole thing was nominated for Best Picture. From Close Encounters' obsession to Independence Day's spectacle to District 9's refuge, the alien invasion franchise gets real.Live at 8:15pm CT.

Greg & Aaron REUNITE to give their District 9 Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Breakdown, & Spoiler Review! From visionary director Neill Blomkamp, District 9 (2009) is a groundbreaking science fiction thriller blending documentary-style realism with explosive action and social commentary. Produced by Peter Jackson (The Lord of the Rings, King Kong), the film follows Wikus van de Merwe (Sharlto Copley – Elysium, Chappie), a bumbling government agent tasked with relocating aliens — derogatorily called “Prawns” — living in a Johannesburg slum known as District 9. What begins as a bureaucratic mission spirals into a shocking transformation after Wikus is exposed to alien biotechnology, forcing him into a desperate alliance with Christopher Johnson, one of the alien refugees. Featuring unforgettable moments such as Wikus's horrifying physical transformation, the discovery of alien weaponry, and the climactic mech-suit battle against MNU forces, District 9 remains a modern sci-fi classic exploring xenophobia, segregation, and the nature of humanity. Also starring Jason Cope (Dredd, Chappie) in multiple roles, including Grey Bradnam and Christopher Johnson, and David James (Strike Back, Black Sails) as Colonel Koobus Venter.
