The viral marketing campaign is awesome.

Bad Company 06-06-2009 02:48 AM

With Weta working on this, it's gonna be badass.

District 9 (D9)
 
I caught the trailor for this the other day. It looks pretty interesting if you like these different SCI-FI type movies. They are putting a lot of effort into thier marketing for this. You can tell by the website. I would post the Trailer here, but You Tube is blocked at work.

And real quick

District 9 is based on Alive in Joburg, a short film directed by Neill Blomkamp, Sharlto Copley, Simon Hansen and Shanon Worley. Copley also portrayed one of the interviewed policemen. The short film is about aliens landing in South Africa and becoming confined to a specific area and forced to work. In the movie these aliens are called "Non-Humans" and are overseen by Multi-National United (MNU), a company which is utilizing alien technology.

Yea I saw a poster for this last night at the movie theater but I didn't get to see the trailer, so I looked it up this morning. I think it looks really interesting.

It's a Peter Jackson film so you know it's gonna be good.

Jeritron 07-09-2009 07:06 PM

He's only producing it

Shadow 07-09-2009 07:39 PM

He's still involved.

Jeritron 07-09-2009 09:23 PM

True, but that doesn't mean it's his movie. He's throwing money at it because he thinks it should be made.
That's about it, although that is a decent consolation of its own

District 9
 
Any love for this movie?

- I'm hoping it's a sleeper hit.

Reminds me of the TV series V

ClockShot 08-09-2009 09:02 PM

I'm down.

I'm just wondering why the R rating? Alien blood & guts, a few too many swear words?

YOUR Hero 08-11-2009 01:56 AM

Is it already out or is it this coming Friday?

Juan 08-11-2009 01:56 AM

This weekend.

Looks interesting.

Bad Company 08-13-2009 03:53 AM

Going to see it tomorrow. PUMPED.

Super V 08-14-2009 11:05 AM

Movie was awesome. Might drag a little in the beginning for some but it's worth it for what it leads up to.

What Would Kevin Do? 08-15-2009 12:53 PM

Yeah, I was seriously amazed at how good this movie actually is.

YOUR Hero 08-15-2009 03:03 PM

Ok.

I'm liking the direction of this :love:

What Would Kevin Do? 08-15-2009 06:10 PM

I'll put it this way. I went in expecting some sort of Sci-Fi, typical summer action flick type deal.

The "action" is fricking amazing, the story is superb, and it's really gripping. It's even emotional. The whole Sci-fi thing really takes a backseat too. Yeah, there are aliens, but they're characters with people like qualities, and not just alien creatures.

I'm definetly going to check this one out and I'm not sure if you were aware but they're doing a remake of the V series it looks like it might be good.

Buzzkill 08-16-2009 02:49 PM

Very very solid summer movie. Not a great movie by any means but totally worth your time.

Hanso Amore 08-16-2009 09:39 PM

I thought it was a very good film.

I am left tasting for some back story and closure. It is very much like Cloverfield, where you come in, see some shit, and thats it, no explanations.

But if you can get over that, it is fucking brilliant. They really make you feel for the main characters

Blitz 08-18-2009 10:23 PM

Really fucking good. Best movie I've seen this year for sure. The action is tremendous, but the real greatness of the movie comes in the performances from Sharlito Copley and Jason Cope. Not often a movie comes along that I'm comfortable with calling unique, but this one is. Blomkamp created a world here, and there goddamned well better be a sequel.

jerichoholicninja 08-18-2009 11:52 PM

I think most people are either going to say great or stupid. It was so far from the science-fiction cliches that I couldn't get into at first. Once I told my brain to shut up and just accept what was happening I loved it. I went with three other friends and three of us loved it and the other hated it. But he hates a lot of things so I wouldn't trust his opinion.

YOUR Hero 08-23-2009 09:38 PM

This movie was really good.

I enjoyed it. District 10 as the sequel?

Reavant 08-24-2009 01:33 AM

was anyone else kind of disappointed they didnt sho the interspecies prostitution and how that would work?

YOUR Hero 08-25-2009 08:59 PM

LOL, no

YOUR Hero 08-25-2009 08:59 PM

well, there was a prequel about District 5. The one about a bunch of reject kids that play hockey in a town in Minnesota

The Mask 09-03-2009 03:50 PM

so how do you all rate this pretty much? has a really high score on imdb which makes me want to see it

Reavant 09-03-2009 11:10 PM

its good stuff

XCaliber 09-04-2009 09:23 AM

Saw last night and I thought it was different but in a good way. I though the acting in it was great but I didn't care for the style of cinematography it was a little annoying at times. I know they're trying to be more unique by doing it this way but sometimes there's nothing wrong with using the old fashioned method.

SPOILER: show
how come when he's handing out the eviction notices he doesn't seem to understand them but later on he does?

Reavant 09-05-2009 05:05 PM

If you understood American baseball, you would understand. Way to prove your ignorance.
