Starting to notice some weirdly specific trends in some of my favorite alien films:
Isolated woman fights for her life against body snatching aliens, but also the aliens are the only ones to truly understand and accept her (in the most horrifying way possible): No One Will Save You and Significant Other
Kids from marginalized communities have to fight invading aliens trying to steal their home and land: Slash/Back and Attack the Block
The aliens are here and, frankly, they’d rather not be: Paul and District 9
*teenage girl voice* hunting for aliens is my coping method, okay: Prey and UFO Sweden

“This process has been fantastic. The story has actually been presented by myself and Joe Cornish. We’ve collaborated heavily on making a story that makes sense for Moses and the other characters, and the new characters that will be coming up in the sequel too. And then, also, there’s different perspectives in writing it, with Joe having his perspective and me having mine. London has changed so much, in so many different ways, over the years since the first movie. We’re just tryin’ to make sure we explore all of that, while bringing in a whole different vibe to that crazy ass first movie that we made.”

John Boyega as Moses in Attack the Block (2011)
It’s no surprise that he struck talent gold in Boyega especially, because he had to fill roles that even today, are virtually non-existent. How quickly can you name another action movie where the cast is mostly non-white? While far from impossible, it’s still not easy.
The reality is that anyone could’ve spotted the likes of Boyega – Cornish and his team just had the good sense to actually look. (x)

u know wot im gonna talk about attack the block. its a movie made cause the director was fed up of seeing 'hoodie horror' and charecters like Moses[played by John Boyega in his first acting credit], black kids who got involved in bad stuff/expelled from school beeing shorthand for 'pure evil'
he went around interviewing kids to get the language right and meet people like moses. heres the full quote: "We did find some who were quite similar to Moses, who’d been excluded from school or got involved with bad stuff. And they’re not monsters. They’re very empathic, and when you spend a bit of time with them they’re normal and sweet, enthusiastic and bright. But they’ve just been cornered a bit by life, and I think that often the way they’re portrayed doesn’t help with that. Culturally, it makes the problem worse, not better." from an artical in the list
its fun its heartbreking its political its alien designs are awsome and it shows people and community with love that are so often treated like shit when portrayed.

We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldn't want to meet.

Something interesting in Attack the Block is that Sam thinks Moses is an adult or late teen but you show him to any black person and they'll see a kid. I remember my mom saying "there's no way she thinks he's grown" and that's just so
