Let's talk about the ninth district first. This is the first to watch, and it feels full of darkness. The alien "prawns" lived in slums, feared and discriminated against, and the indigenous people of the earth blasted them into concentration camps through bloodshed and demonstrations. The protagonist, a docile and timid civil servant, is widely known because he undertakes the task of commanding the migration, and is also used as an experiment because he is infected with an alien virus that mutates and can manipulate alien weapons. A ruthless government and deceived people, fleeing, cooperating with aliens, sacrificing themselves. His voice of wanting to go home was so weak, and his sacrifice was ultimately insignificant, the "traitor" was gradually forgotten, and the remaining aliens continued their miserable lives.
What human beings do to aliens in the film is just a reappearance of the conflict between human beings. The extremely absurd facts are presented in the form of very realistic news reports. When the protagonist's body is mutated, his mind is also changing. Fear and disapproval of social values are expressed in external forms, and a lot of violent scenes made me give up watching it for a while, so let's just use it as a way for the director to convey his thoughts.
"2012" has different opinions. Some people are proud of the phrase "the ark can only be built by China", but I think this is just another manifestation of China as the world's processing factory. Who was the ark built for? Heads of state, social elites, people who can afford 1 billion euros for a ferry ticket, and what is the proportion of the rich in China? Don't forget to drive the construction workers off before sailing. Those construction workers know that they are not building a dam, but they can't think of what it is for.
Also, not to mention the individual heroism of typical Americans, would those heads of state really give up their safety at the last moment to let others on board? Since so many people have been sacrificed, do they still care about the extravehicular? After seeing countless cities destroyed in an instant, countless people turned to ashes in an instant, everything that I usually believed in completely collapsed. I am afraid that the role of traumatic stress response is not something we can reasonably speculate on. The fundamental reason for the existence of species is the instinct to survive. Animals will act according to their instincts. What about people who lose their calm and reason?
