500 Days of Summer Showtime: November 23, 2009 Place: HIB
100
After it looks as if she's left his life for good this time, Tom
Hansen reflects back on the just over one year that he knew Summer Finn.
Despite being physically average in almost every respect, Summer had
always attracted the attention of men, Tom included. For Tom, it was love
at first sight when she walked into the greeting card company where
he worked, she the new administrative assistant. Soon, Tom knew that
Summer was the woman with whom he wanted to spend the rest of his life.
Although Summer did not believe in relationships or boyfriends - in her
assertion, real life will always ultimately get in the way - Tom and Summer
became more than just friends. Through the trials and tribulations of Tom
and Summer's so-called relationship, Tom could always count on the advice
of his two best friends, McKenzie and Paul. However, it is Tom's
adolescent sister, Rachel, who is his voice of reason. After all is said and
done, Tom is the one who ultimately has to make the choice to listen or
not.

District 9 Showtime: November 9, 2009 at 7:00PM
28 years ago, aliens
made first contact with Earth. Humans waited for the hostile attack, or the
giant advances in technology. Neither came. Instead, the aliens were
refugees, the last survivors of their home world. The creatures were set up
in a makeshift home in South Africa's "District 9" as the world's nations
argued over what to do with them. Now, patience over the alien situation has
run out. Control over the aliens has been contracted out to Multi-National
United (MNU), a private company uninterested in the aliens' welfare – they
will receive tremendous profits if they can make the aliens' awesome weaponry
work. So far, they have failed; activation of the weaponry requires alien
DNA. The tension between the aliens and the humans comes to a head when an
MNU field operative, Wikus van der Merwe (Sharlto Copley), contracts a
mysterious virus that begins changing his DNA. Wikus quickly becomes the most
hunted man in the world, as well as the most valuable – he is the key to
unlocking the secrets of alien technology. Ostracized and friendless, there
is only one place left for him to hide: District 9.
