Mazy Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 Teaser was just released http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/district9/ Its pretty much a feature length version of Alive in Joburg Alive In Joburg is much more exciting in its pale documentary look, but then again its just a teaser for District 9 so who knows. Blomkamp is awesome no matter what~ Quote
Thrik Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 Looks really compelling. Clever how they segued from what seemed like some kind of documentary into the sci-fi stuff — didn't see that coming at all, being totally unfamiliar with it. Also it's Jackson so it has to be amazing. Quote
Erratic Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 Any ominous feeling I got from the trailer was zapped as soon as the grass hopper in the chair showed up. Still looks interesting, though. Quote
Duff-e Posted May 1, 2009 Report Posted May 1, 2009 non fiction science fiction that's what's up the bug interview is sort of cheesy...especially the need to blur his face....but who knows it seems like they're trying to put the aliens in a very human light. Quote
Zacker Posted May 2, 2009 Report Posted May 2, 2009 Woah, they had me sitting here with a very surprised look on my face when that spaceship appeared halfway through the trailer. I really like the way they anthropomorphize the aliens and thereby transforms the story into a true fable allowing one to reflect upon how this can give a perspective to current day conflicts. Quote
Warby Posted May 2, 2009 Report Posted May 2, 2009 the the aliens are a metaphor for an arbitrary unwanted human minority is pretty damn obvious. but i am sure this will work handsomely no matter how obvious. i just wished they pixilated the aliens a bit more things tend to loose their scariness if you can see them too much ^^ Quote
insta Posted May 3, 2009 Report Posted May 3, 2009 That's a pretty ghetto looking flying saucer. Quote
Spellbinder Posted May 3, 2009 Report Posted May 3, 2009 Interesting, i too almost laughed when i saw the alian, and thought wth about that pixelayed face. But as warby and Zacker says "the aliens are a metaphor" i also believe this but it works. And yeah Thrik it is Jackson so.... Lets hope at least. I'll watch it for sure, not until i have seen it will i be able to say if it is bad or good. Quote
Skjalg Posted May 4, 2009 Report Posted May 4, 2009 That's a pretty ghetto looking flying saucer. lol Quote
sarge mat Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 I really enjoyed his previous work. Hope cinema's in Northern Ireland get it, totally forgot about this project after the Halo movie went to hell. Quote
