Try to think about it from the examiner's point of view - they are going to have to read hundreds of essays, and lots of people will be using popular movies like Avatar. Give them something a big fresh.
Although, if you can write about something from a an unusual perspective, or another level, they'll really respect the fact that you've gone to more effort, and also really connected with the concept of belonging. They'll still get that joy of something different, and probably reward you with some good marks.

It's not really about what you choose or however many other people are doing it, but how well you do it.
Pick any text you wanna do, just be sure to do it well.

Any one of those films could be used for belonging in some sense. Don't restrict yourself to picking something that has an obvious sense of belonging. The reason the module was chosen is because it can be related to almost anything. Find some interesting texts, and do some analysis. You'll be surprised in what you find.
