But.... big corporations are always white controlled...... that's how it is... except maybe like.. BET. I don't see stereotyping or falseness in that because well... it's true.
The blacks were not placed in the movie as animals... because... that is honestly how they act over there. That's like making a movie on Austrailians and focusing on the nice white people there, and showing the tribal Aborigine's that are the blacks.. it's not stereotyping.. because thats absolutely true. Now there are some domesticated and intelligent blacks.. and that movie showed them... the black tech coworker.. and the police force, but in showing the 'gangs' and drug lords over there... their main base of religion is the voo doo primitive way.. so how did that movie depict them as pathetic when they truly... have that belief?
Yes you are right... we would invade to take over their technology etc... just like you said.. if my dog talked to me.. the government would step in and take her away for experiments, or Roswell if you believe that.
Yes, I imagine an organization would try to protect the lessers if this happened, like the NAACP does now. THey did in the movie, but 1 thing about organizations is they only care about themselves and profit. Al Sharpton may speak equality, but he's one of the biggest racists and backwards race profiteers on this planet. An organization was made in the movie... to solely control and take their technology, and as you saw experiment on the Prawns biologically.
The movie portrayed a possible 'what could happen' perfectly and no stereotyping was done. Watch any Nigerian video or documentary and you will see that they were actually made too smart in the movie.
Again voo doo and digesting others may be stupid to us - but it is common to them:

primitive belief indeed... but so was following Ra, the Gods on Olympus, and perhaps to future civilizations.. Christianity.

lol, you are so ridiculous. I really hope you're intentionally acting like this.
Anyway, like I said, I'm not arguing about whether or not this movie is a possible reality should aliens land in Africa. I'm arguing that it is ridiculous to have such an obvious moral that is anti-apartheid and anti-racist and then convolute it with black people acting like animals. But then, maybe the writers/director/producers all share the same view of race as you, Lex.
BTW, panties shouldn't foam! Check your local gyno should this occur.

So black headhunters, tribal people, cannabals, and the bush people are not primitive and the movie mis represented them as being ... uneducated animals?
Are you seriously saying this is false and they are not really and truly like that? Some are... some are not..
To deny this is dumb and not racist at all but factual.. the movie portrayed them as voo doo following derelics who digest their victims... like they ACTUALLY do now.. again thats fact not fiction.. so how is it considered false and racist?
not all blacks werel ike that in the movie btw.. only that CLICK.
are all white people bumbling nerds like the protagonist that betrays everyone until the very end and when cornered? gimme a break.. damn reverend wright mindset...

They should have showed white people gathered around a fire in lion cloths ,grinding up the Prawns bones and eating their private parts. That would have made a ton of sense....
In fact, I demand that any movie depicting bush people or jungle tribes throw in some white folks dressed in underwear made out of leaves.

the only time savages and white people mix in movies is in prison videos or sports movies - but they are often referred to as coach or warden.
and leaf underwear itches btw.

How about Russians harvesting organs and selling the aliens for sex. It wouldn't take much imagination to think of something that wouldn't completely destroy the movies theme.
