Basically, go watch director Shane Acker's original short film that the feature length movie 9 is based on. While the stories differ, you pretty much get the idea of what goes on in this world and it doesn't consume an hour and a half of your life. That isn't to say there is anything especially wrong with 9, it's an entertaining action movie, it's just not a thinking movie. There aren't any particularly challenging issues to consider, it's just a simple and fun ride. Really, the most interesting parts to me were the tiny flashbacks to the times of the humans and to see glimpses of how they brought about their own destruction. I know, dark, right? News

@alibakes Haywire is a sparse little covert thriller featuring a smooth jazz score. I can't think of anything else to say about it.

@dcorsetto For the record, I'm more grossed out by pooping. And war. War and pooping, mostly.

Twitter ran out of "who to follow" recommendations for me. I should probably turn the Internet off now.
