District 9

Trailer:


Synopsis:
Aliens have been forced to come to earth, they cannot leave as their ships are trashed and they cant fix them, they're segregated and treated like shit.

Notes:
Based off this short film


Peter Jackson is producing it

Supposedly this is the directer who might be doing the Halo movie if it ever comes to pass.


I'm really interested to see this. I'm loving the concept, tho I think the documentary style of filming might get to me slightly, wanting a bit more of a traditional movie. but still, it looks great

This is an MNU behaviour reminder; always offer your seat to a standing human in a bus.
This is an MNU behaviour reminder; please refrain from eating human pets.

And so on. Those are the types of messages that appear if you visit the movie's site and choose "non-human". I'm really looking forward to this movie.
 
Nice, especially with the translation.

The concept is indeed highly intriguing, and I hope it is executed in a memorable way.
Though if I were to be realistic, my guess would be that any contact between humans and aliens would be impossible without new illnesses as a result. It will be like the europeans meeting the native americans, only MUCH much worse.
That's just a guess though.
 
How rather irritating. I followed this link related to the movie, and it led to a math test.

I got this message after completing it.

That's what I get for forgetting a few things... Could someone please get a 10/10 and show/tell us what they find?

Looks rather interesting, actually. Of course, the aliens are always treated like shit, which isn't a very original concept, tbh.

Also, lulz at that site, looks very cheap :monster:. Trying the test now, although I fail at math.

Edit: Fuck it.
 
A friend of mine, together with my help, managed to get 9/10.

Fascinating also how all these sites give these little details on the mythology of District 9. For example, the aliens landed on April 14th 1989.
August 2009 will mark the reverse engineering of non-human technology, or something like that. And there are all these jobs you can sign up for. For example, "non-human dental hygienist". :monster:

Edit: You scared of the math Cthulhu?

Terrified. It gives me nightmares and is the main cause of dirty socks you find lying around everywhere.

I tried the test - :P 6/10. I'm not up to par with that higher math! :(

I'm with Cthulthu - math is not my strong point. I suck, in other words.

If anyone gets a perfect score, I'd be interested in seeing how it progresses, too. :)

As for this movie - it looks interesting! Sad, though; I hope the aliens get away from this world.

I hope this movie does good just so I get to see what they do to turn Halo into a movie.

Because of your complete disregard for District 9 simply for a shitty game turned movie that will more than likely be just as shit as most video game films are. :monster:

Well I think I already said something about being very interested in District 9 somewhere else on the forum, cba to remember. I've been following this since the beginning of the year or whenever they first announced this and want to see it shortly after it comes out.

Anywhoo, I'm happy to see there will be some action in the film. I wasn't sensing there would be any of that from the first trailer.
