District 9 – Original Short Film

Jul

Okay, okay, so I havn’t seen District 9 yet, so this isn’t going to be a movie review.  But I am looking forward to seeing it.  Basically, in a few words, it looks amazing!  Below is the Original Short Film – District 9, which the box office movie was based off of.

District 9 will be in theatres August 18 of this year, and shot by Neill Blomkamp.  Blomkamp was the producer of the movie Halo, until it went on indefinate heitaus.  The combination of Peter Jackson (King Kong, The Lord of the Rings trillogy) and Blomkamp (lots of small documentary style films) is simply, amazing.  I’m not a big Lord of the Rings, or Harry Potter fan, so I wasn’t at the begining of the line, at the midnight showing of these movies.  But you can almost count of me seeing it if not opening day, opening weekend.

Don’t forget to check out the site: d-9.com.  The site has the official trailer, a satellite map that shows where the aliens live and other restricted areas, links to MNU (Multi-national Union) [which currently have career openings now] and a 800 number to report any aliens out of zone, or exhibiting improper behavior.

AWESOME!
