The parallels are amazing. The whole Universe is assets, Corporations and profits are the crux of everything. Get in to character when you sit down, treat the movie like a seminar for how to be a successful CEO. It really made the movie a different affair for me because I was learning from the 'bad guy' and it was so EVE to do so. |

Yeah, corporate takeover of reality. What a new idea. I wonder if George Orwell woulda thought it was cute. Or, perhaps Hermann Hesse may have been impressed with it. Or, even that B-scale author, Philip K. D!ck (whose name gets censored by yet another corporation!)
And (Koch Brothers) what would happen to a free society if the corporate weenies ever got control???
By the way. What planet are you from? I'd love to visit one day.

I didn't really see any ship design that reflected EVE bloodlines. The ships did use a warp system similar to our cyno concepts but mostly it was all parallels that ended in Sci-fi only. The movie has a lot of inspiration potential but you need to incorporate ideas without cloning concepts from either source material.
as to the previous comment, it's out of context rants with Orwell at the center. My imagination is my greatest gift. Because I can enjoy it and not lose my grip on reality. I feel sorry for people who can't. |

What would be really amazing is if I could make Mila Kunis in the character creator.

I really like the theme of this movie but am concerned that although the plot and storyline look good the actors would be the same flavor of some of the modern movies like twilight where a good story is destroyed by a bunch of poor clone young actors with no character delivering zero content where dialog and personality are concerned. Am I to be convinced that Jupiter manages to step outside the box that modern cinema has created to satisfy modern western teenagers?
I truly do want to enjoy this flick but have as of yet been convinced that it will be worth my time. |

Sean Bean is in it. If you don't care for the plot or actors you go just to see how he dies this time.

I saw it this weekend, the graphics were great, the story line sucked, and could the 'bad guy" sound more like a boring whiney *****? I mean WTF was with the low disinterested voice? I wanted someone to shoot him in the head the moment he opened his damn mouth.
Now with that, did anyone notice in the scene where they go to the over populated world on the Edris (sp?) that the jump portal looks nearly exactly like an amarrian gate?

The ship was the Aegis.
Yeah, I saw that same similarity with the gate. The movie's plot didn't have anything new or innovative, but it was a fun flick.
So, you're a bounty hunter.
No, that ain't it at all.

My 'gripe' if there was one, was the idea that a corporation would mass extinction, farm a planet like that.
According to the limited lore, it took them a hundred thousand years to get earth to a population of 6 billion. Every 100 years or so that 6 billion will repopulate the planet. They were able to destroy cities and build them, wipe memories of any events. Why not convert the population in to a renewable resource and harvest Earth 10, 20 or more times instead of one great harvest?
The Abrasax Corp wouldn't cut it in New Eden. They are too small minded. |

this actually would not be too hard to do either, just have a big "war" every few years, reap some of the solders, change memories, implant images, done. No one would be the wiser
