[QUOTE="LeifVignirsson, post: 1925702, member: 10833"] Again, all point of view (which was where I was going with my first post). If we all think it is evil and want to see it gone, then yes... people are going to want to see that group gone, period. I believe that we are going for the "groups on equal ground" and "what happens when the good guys get to the village and see the wide eyed little child who is crying because daddy is dead". The Aliens analogy is amusing, but incorrect. The movie is predator vs. prey, IMO. It is prey (human) trying to fight against predator (Not Predators, but that is the same thing in that movie too). These movies are meant to be a "poke" at humanity that there might be something out there higher on the food chain than us and is ready to kill us because of it. More of a natural angle than a "war" or "genocide" angle. Really, it doesn't matter too much in this bland society anyways. We hide teh strengths of our differences because we are afraid that we will offend someone because it is thought that men are stronger than women and that might offend the buffed out "Chyna" women and the stick figure-esque men. And that is the bottom line! Oops, sorry... Threw in the Chyna wrestling reference, had to do the Stone Cold. [/QUOTE]
