That *is* odd.   Is there any particular sci-fi film you would never
get tired watching again?

I did not know what to expect when I started to watch District 9. I
liked the seemless CGI with live-action.

But the film also leaned pretty heavy on the sociology of co-living
with aliens. I think I read somewhere that it was purposely a
message about segregation and apartheid. Maybe that aspect steers
some people away who are primarily seeking entertainment, not a
"lesson".
