    That Joseph Kulper vid has been out for more than 18 months. How long have they been preparing for this? Is it actually connected to the film officially?

    Same. He'll probably play an older version in the sequel.

    The gun looks shitty as fuck, but then again district 9 didnt have the best effects.
    Looking forward to Jodie Foster as the bad gal.

    Was just thinking it'd be awesome if Wickus from District 9 had a role in this when I saw him in the trailer. Sweet!

    I thought it was Aaron Douglas personally (Tyrol from Battlestar Galactica).

    I refuse to suspend disbelief that humans live on a Halo above the Earth, in the year 2159, and still Robot/Androids miss shots from fire arms.

    Missed this post during its original run, but I've seen the trailer a couple times now with recent movies. I dunno, I really want to like it, but I will probably rent this. Matt Damon is awesome but I'm not sure if the "assault the perfect place" plot is worth a theater fee for me.
