gay
Fabian propaganda
>mixed races in mayor cities
>elite living in homegenous communities
>immigrant problem
>terrorist attacks
Just like the real world, awesome movie that reflects the real one
The book was good. The film was average.
>>74674284
I thought it was pretty hard-hitting at moments.
I really like the cinematography, though. That's the main plus of the film. Seriously excellent single-take shots.
>>74674284
It's a pretty damn good movie I think. One of the best action/scifi movie of the last 10 years.
It's not "cool" to like it anymore, because so many fedora fags like it, but I don't think it's fans change the fact that it's a great movie.
It's also a remarkably prescient metaphor for the state of the West right now.
>>74674284
Used to think it was cool, but now realize it's just pro-immigration trash.
>>74674587
>that one long take while the city is under attack and goes into an apartment complex
Children of Men has some really great shots.
>>74674732
How is it pro-immigration
The whole country goes to fuck because of rampant immigration leading to breadown of communities and authoritarian backlash
>>74674753
Yeah. Pretty intense. Very impressed they managed to pull it all off. I would imagine it had to be in one take.
>>74674284
Accurate reflection of European demographics in the near future.
>>74674284
Documentary.

The message is that a country that doesn't open its arms to immigration is a dystopia.
The symbol of that shitskin having the baby, and therefore the means to repopulate the world is the most obvious symbol of white genocide you can find.
>>74674284
All that effort to save a nigger and a nigger baby, so it could re-populate the earth.
Disgusting.
>>74675305
Last child on earth is a nigger - and you don't kill it?
>>74674732
book was radically different. I enjoyed the movie for the cinematography but the book was way better.
Egalitarianism destroyed the world in the book just like today. Also no nigger bitch with a nigger kid.
I like to think about it as a sequel to Utopia UK TV series. And I liked the movie, especially the pink floyd reference.
99% of non-banana posts are bot posts.

The human race will continue on guize. It's a black nigger human!

>>74674284
I thought it was a very stark warning for what is to come.
I think the black woman being pregnant is a symbol of white fertility in free fall because we've placed so much value on careerism, careerism that doesn't even have any meaning in a lot of cases and hedonism and endless leisure over values that will carry on the species.
Too many people say these days that they dare not have kids because they think they'd screw it up, I hear this all over the net now.
People weren't experts at raising kids, they never were. Plenty of people are fucking clueless when they start. But our first world lifestyle has created neuroticism in everyone, which is why we have to seek population replacement from abroad.
Film was good, I want to read the book when I have time.
>>74675478
In the scientific narrative, the original humans werent adam and eve but east africans so the movie is playing on that
>>74675300
I think they made it clear that the run-down atmosphere was caused by the burden of refugees on the struggling cost people and economy.
>>74674284
>> /tv/
I watched it because of you faggots, surprise surprise, its a movie about nigger lovers and a nigger. Fucking kill yourselves cucks.
>>74675305
No it was to deliver it to the Human project so they could figure out how to restore fertility to the rest of humanity. One nigger child couldn't repopulate the world anyway.
>>74675542
I think it's more the case that as the economoy develops and we all collectively move up from the first two layers to the third, fourth and fifth, we stop having kids as a matter of survival and necessity but start thinking about the emotional and pyschological necessity of having a family
childbirth is natures way of using us to pass on our genes. Now that we've reaslised that, and we are no longer driven by fear of scarcity, people want to make sure that having children will not send them back down through the heirarchy levels
>>74675639
Just because it's centered on them, doesn't mean they're the ideal.
>>74675639
wow how old are you? you can't be more than 15
>>74674973
Wasn't just the country, the whole world was fucked apart from Britain. In the film on the train it showed wild spread of use of chemical and nuclear weapons in various places around the world.
Then yes it has the scene of the guys cousin who rescued art from around the world with the military at Battersea Power Station.
>>74675897
this desu
fertility is still stable, and our societies aren't directed towards procreation and family; if they were, birth rates would start rising again.
>>74675305
you come from niggers so the movie is accurate
>>74676085
>below replacement rates across europe
>stable
ireland is the only country in europe with somewhat stable birthrates

>we are no longer driven by fear of scarcity
Yeah that's the hilarious thing. Because our society is slowly coming apart. The water has already begin to enter the Titanic. It's just people are still partying on the topic decks oblivious.

I like how everyone who watches this movie sees our future in it.
We're absolutely fucked aren't we?

to me this movie is like one of the rails you put up when you're playng bowling to stop the ball going into the gutter. the other would be a movie like gattaca or minority report

Great documentary on bongistan

>We're absolutely fucked aren't we?
Yes.
>>74676974
Except this film didn't accomplish shit. You can't fight the stagnation that's coming. The zeitgeist just isn't there yet. It might never be,
>>74674284
The book was shit. The Alfonso Cuarón took the core concept of infertility and the core characters and changed the story around a lot to make the movie better.
Those of you thinking about reading the book - don't.
>>74677439
So people saying the book is better are just being literature snobs then?
I often find film has a stronger impact because by visualizing it people are so much more willing to accept the message and it stays with them for longer.
Does the book follow the same plot line or is the film a very loose adaptation? I know a fair few sci fi's have only really taken the name and the basic premise of the book.
>>74675525
The good was average. The film was book.
I saw this movie. It touched me a great deal. I saw that is wasn't particular to any side.
I wish I read the book first.
anyway, this is about a young girl stuck in a horrible situation of which she has no control, Her baby was the first baby born in over 20 years and Clive Owen's character has the job to get her out of the city to keep the child safe.
There is a scene that takes place in the middle of a battle between governmental forces and the multicultural rebellion. When the sound of the child crying is heard, everyone stops fighting as the child escapes. It is one of the most powerful scenes I have ever seen in a modern film (post 1980) and resonates with me to this day, especially how this seems to be the future of Europe.
9/10 movie.
This movie is worth seeing just for Michael Caine going DUDEWEEDLMAO
>>74674284
Just saw it recently. Was always popping up in "god tier" movie threads so I finally watched it and was really disappointed. Kinda boring. The single shot scene with him going into the building was cash though. 5/10
>>74677735
thanks roger ebert

>So people saying the book is better are just being literature snobs then?
I can't speak for them, but the book is dry as fuck. It's almost a different genre altogether. Like, it's more of a mystery/survival/drama, where as the movie was sci-fi/drama/action.
You know what, let me rephrase my first post: if you liked the movie for the action/sci-fi bits, you won't like the book.
>Does the book follow the same plot line or is the film a very loose adaptation?
More or less, but the book actually involves the government a lot heavier than the movie did.
In the movie you had Theo mainly running from the Fishes, who want to use the baby for a political uprising to end the ban/cruel treatment of non-native Britons.
(Spoilers)
In the book, he actually sticks with the Fishes a lot more and the character that is pregnant is Theo's love interest and her boyfriend is also part of the Fishes and there is a bit of rivalry there. They are mainly running from the government, which is headed by a politician (Xan) that used to be friends with Theo, which Theo uses to his advantage at points and he the main badguy in the book.
Theo and Xan actually have a dual at the end and Theo kills him and in the book he lives and baptises the baby.
Also, in the book Theo backed over his baby son with his car and killed him, which makes Theo very emotional through out the book, which totally makes it a book for women. I swear. It's boring if you're a dude.
The book barely qualifies as sci-fi imo. It uses inferitility as a starting point to unravel the plot. It's never expanded upon, which I guess is kind of same in the movie.

I didn't read the book or watch the movie, but I did play the video game.
If you ask me in real life I would say that movie is good, has really interesting plot and full of emotions, easily in my top 10.
If you ask me on /pol/, I would say its a zion propaganda about white genocide and repopulating europe with shitskins.
