Just like to let you all know, this movie is based on one of Neil Blomkamps shorts that came out BEFORE Transformers.

Well aware of that, read about it in a film magazine. The original was called Live in Joburg.

Some critics are saying this could be the next big sci-fi. Like the next Matrix. But without 2 crappy sequels.
Too bad Avatar comes out in December to steal all the sci-fi glory :[

James Cameron makes some damn good movies, but Avatar doesn't look like it'll have any real mass appeal. And District 9 looks all the more incredible by the day.

How in the hell is Avatar going to steal the science fiction glory of District 9?
So far, for me, best science fiction move of the year's been Star Trek, but I hope for District 9 to change that.

it does look very good and something that could start a cult ( i saw a publicbus with a bus sign on the side saying "This bus is for humans only. None humans are not allowed." It was crazy

I woudn't say it could start a cult, but I think it could be pretty big. The thing you saw on the bus was just an ad. You knew that, right?

The film isn't directed by Jackson though, just helped to produce it.

But yeah, the short film its based on was great I really liked that so I'm really looking forward to this.

Movie had the shit hyped out of it, viral marketing, billboards, bus-ads, trailers, etc. Where have you been for the last two months?
