what do you think about District 9?

who here is totally psyched for the movie "district 9"?

Confuses me. On so many levels.

It's already coming out? I saw one trailer for it in the theaters a while ago and now it's coming out. Way to go marketing team...

The only movie I am looking forward to this summer.

Looks like an intense movie, I enjoyed Peter Jackson's: Lord of the Rings Trilogy and King Kong. I haven't heard too much at all about the other dude, this movie definately deserves far more publicity, and a 15 rating so that I can see this in the cinema.

I think it looks great. I am really looking forward to it.

personally, i would perfer a movie in which humankind would befriend the aliens, but hey, its produced by Peter Jackson so it must be awesome!

Given that this is what became of the Halo movie (producer, production team, effects team, director, writer), I'm curious to see what they did with it. 

The whole reason the halo film crashed is Microsoft wanted control, but didn't want to put in more money.  When you have two studios putting in millions more than you are, you don't demand control.  You will run them off.

It's the only movie I've actually looked forward to in a long time.

It looks interesting, but much like Cloverfield and Blair Witch, it feels like a lot of hype for something that will inevitably be not as good as the marketing.

Hmm... there seems to be a misconception that Peter Jackson is directing it... this is false. He's only a producer (not an executive mind you, and he's among several other producers).

Confusing, so I'll probably end up seeing it, lol.

Am I the only one here who saw the trailer before Bruno and ABSOLUTELY hated the Alien designs?

They look bad. The CG on that ship looks great though.

Looks interesting.

i dont think about it. 

I think D9 looks like it will be good.

I think the success of this movie could very well make or break a deal for a Halo movie. If director Neil Blomkamp can pull this movie off then the movie studios involved might finally give Neil a chance.

it looks alright but it also looks like its trying to hard, i dont know how to describe it, I really didn't like its tv ad.

From what I've seen, it makes ABSOLUTELY no sense to me. How on earth can we prevent aliens from going home!? Seriously....Im seeing it just for that reason. Kind of out of spite.

This is the only summer film I'm really looking forward to. I hope it does well, not just because we'll get a Halo movie out of it but because D-9 in itself is a unique story that has the potential to be amazing.

That's how movies work bro. They show a trailer and then later on they come out. "

It better be an awesome movie, because i think its really just a test to see if Bloomkamp is capable of directing Halo- which the studio clearly believes has major blockbuster potential. This is much like what happened when the Wachowski Bros directed the film BOUND.

You know, ever since I ran into this film, for some reason I have little or no interest in it.  I like science fiction movies and have seen a lot of them, but for some reason I can't define I have no excitement for this movie.  I'm not going to make any judgment call as to its quality, because (at this point) I don't care.  I don't know why.  I want to see Moon, so I still haven't given up on obscure sci-fi, but maybe when I find out more about the plot and see more from the trailers I might take a shine to it.  We'll see.

It looks interesting.

It looks good.

I think it looks interesting but I really want a Halo movie, I hope that they still make it
