>>5775964I posted screen captures of it before, but I always found the Neill Blomkamp space refugee shuttle scenes in Elysium very powerful. I wonder if (besides perhaps offending Ridley Scott / incurring his displeasure) the powerful political messaging of that film was enough to see Neill Blomkamp sidelined as a director (see, this is how censorship works in Hollywood...) those film scenes involving state sponsored terrorism, political manipulation of immigration, denial of medical care, conspiracy / orchestrated sabotage (Neill Blomkamp used some actual historical references to South African Civil Cooperation Bureau death squad apartheid organisations) a deep state within the bourgeois space station utopian political enclave etc... they are all sensitive issues still today
