    My impression of Arrival was "We've got 55 different variations of the standard Hollywood love story, let's toss some aliens into this one." Just like Titanic, Pearl Harbor, All Dogs Go to Heaven, A Fast & Furious Christmas Special: Snowkyo Drift, etc.

    Either way, I always welcome good sci-fi movies. When was the last one, District 9? Sphere? Event Horizon?

    Speaking of which, anyone seen the original 1973 Westworld? Was it any good?

    I liked it, but then again, I'm a fan of Yul Brynnyr.

    I thought they wrecked Arrival with the love story angle.

    IMO, Plan 9 From Outer Space was the last good UFO flick:
