Salma Posted November 17, 2009 Ok, the movie is good when it comes to the Special Effects and the crazy stuff... Full of extracts from reglious scripts as well some lunatic theories such as "Survival 4 da Fittest" bla bla bla... Anyway, I liked the concept that "Nature will choose who will live" but guess what??? This time its different: It's not the richest, or the strongest or the prettiest who will survive as the old theory said, rather, everyone with good deeds and noble acts.... The best part: After all the disasters, destructions that Roland Emmerich a.k.a the Director has made, one thing made me happy : The whole world got desroyed except for Africa.... A.F.R.I.C.A.... yes Ma'am, yes Sir,,, I shall repeat that : Africa is the only place which was not affected... I don't know what is the point of saving Africa (Maybe coz Africa did suffered alot while the others were enjoying in previous life LOL). Hope u enjoy it...

cynical lady Posted November 17, 2009 Throws her shoe at @Salama; I was planning to watch that. Ohh well Twilight it is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
me Posted November 17, 2009 Salma, You missed few things. 1. The Africans died. I mean how do you expect the continent to rise 5 thousand feet and for there to be survivors? 2. There was no Arc for the Africans, they probably had rowing boats. 3. The survivors with their Arcs and weapons head for Africa to take it over. 4. Somalia sank into the sea. BTW the richest and the powerfull did survive. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Salma Posted November 17, 2009 Ibti,,,, You are the man We should appoint you as the Pyschologist of SOL. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
me Posted November 17, 2009 Salma, You were distracted by the special effects. To see that what the director was saying was, LETS TAKE OVER AFRICA. The Africans did not have an Arc, how racist is that? They saved African elephants and giraffes, but no one is saving actual Africans. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Salma Posted November 17, 2009 salle cala nabbi ya Me, what the hell??? even those who paid Millions of Euros and reserved their seats in year 2009 couldn't be saved anyway... Even the Chinese who built the Arcs for almost three years didn't get free ride, they were left alone to be dead and you are talking about the Africans.... Bonjure Have you seen the woman who reserved three seats for herself and her two dogs?? She didn't care about the humans like her, well she has money, then she can save her dogs more than anybody else(how heartless). They didn't even save the Indian Scientist who disovered the whole problem in India in first place!!!!!! The movie is about this question: Are you human or are you not Human? IF you are, then prove it.....Well, you can't, only during crisis and disasters this can be proved.... Otherwise, we are all beautiful humans. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ibtisam Posted November 17, 2009 ^^What :eek: :eek: Although I am not suprised at all. ** GG is going to walk in a moment and tell you off Me. She loves this director Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faheema. Posted November 17, 2009 Salma, first and foremost I is SHE Second, what else is left other than bunch of people running around saving their skin? YOu gave away the juice. Ibti, you watch things 10 times and you still forget lol, so a plot give away is practically nothing to you but it's whole script when it comes to me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
me Posted November 17, 2009 Salma, See, no one saved the Africans, they all died and then some other people, mostly rich people survived and took over their continent. The message of this movie is, money conquers all, even Doomsday. Ironik, This movie is interesting for other reasons, that I am not disclosing now. There is allot of symbolism, forget about the Africans.......there are more interesting issues. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paragon Posted November 17, 2009 me would say this is a malthusian conspiracy to create movie plots that destroy all else ( to deflect the racism inharent in its racist plot) and save Africa minus the black things, I mean people. PS: I did not watch this movie. But having seen the 'The Day After Tomorrow', I can easily understand the plot. The Day After Tomorrow told us the Third World COuntries (warmer countries) came out fine after the disasters but this one (judging from what Salma says) narrows it to Africa. It's a conspiracy! Next they'll narrow it to SOmalia! Actually, what was FlashFowards fascination with Somalia? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
