My personal favorite theory is partially the scenario above but that it was to get rid of them, out of sight, out of mind. This kind of makes sense because all the Prawns were locked up and they couldn’t even get out of the ship (humans had to open up the hatch, they were living in crap conditions).




That ties in with the Douglas Adams 'B ark' but also you just made me think of the medieval europeans 'ship of fools'...

L. Ron Hubbard comes to mind.

Just saw this movie last night. I thought it was good, not amazing but pretty good.

For whatever reason the camera work never bothered me. I do want to watch it again though and this film might have some interesting commentary on the DVD.
