    District 9

    YouTube - District 9 - Official Trailer

    wtf is this shit.

    Actually it looks interesting. It's not your typical Alien flick. We actually enslave these sum bitches and force them to live in South Africa.

    Peter Jackson director, incoming epic?

    I thought Jackson was just the producer. Saw the previews a while back, looks interesting and its like Jackson's back up since he didn't do Halo.

    I was wondering when this vid would show up here. I think it looks very very interesting and viral marketing a while back was pretty fun.

    I immediately fell in love with the trailer when I first saw it. Subsequent trailers drew me closer into wanting to see this movie. It looks pretty thrilling, especially since the trailer seems to tip the scale in which race is the enemy.

    The screening at Comicon got raving reviews, many of which claimed to enjoy it more then LOTR. Of course that will vary from person to person but I expect it to be an enjoyable film.

    Yeah, there was a new trailer I hadn't previously seen when I was at the movies to see Funny People tonight.

    Howard Stern gave the movie 5 out of 4 stars. First of all, that isn't even possible. Second of all, its Howard Stern so take it with a grain of salt.

    Yeah, I first saw it on YT advertising on the front page a month or two back. I initially thought of the forced removal of people off of Palestine land.

    Peter Jackson isn't the director. His name is Neill Blomkamp. District 9 (2009)

    Quite interested in this, but I'm afraid it might get too heavy-handed. Soldiers looking out of windows saying "Y'know, Johnson, sometimes I think we are the real monsters." That kind of thing.

    wow that's pretty epic.

    I can totally imagine this happening though. Like if aliens come and dont totally wipe us out first, we'd never be able to coexist anyways, not within a few hundred years.

    I saw this preview when I went to see Bruno and the general response from the theatre was very negative. I on the other hand thought it looked very interesting. I'm glad to see people agree, since I haven't met anyone irl that felt strongly either way about it since.

    Aliens + Real politics = looks pretty win to me.

    I saw the trailer and thought to myself, really neat, or really dumb. So, I guess we'll see.
