Saw this for the first time the other day. Thought it was cool. Some of you may have seen it, but I wanted to share with those interested.

What do you think?

Is it just for fun, or is it the teaser for some future project?

BTW, if you haven't seen it, try to find his pre-District 9 work. Good stuff.

I can't see the link, but is it the hand held shots of one guy showing another guy what he found off the side of the road?

I understand you not liking it as much, but you thought it was "SO bad"? I disagree. It ended as a great sci-fi/action/chase film. I loved it from beginning to end. Perhaps the most surprisingly good film I've seen in the last few years. That and Kickass. To each his own though. I don't want to hijack my own thread.

yeah, I saw that some time back. I think it was a kind of snippet web thing he did for some web page? I really can't recall, but I do know that I fricking loved it! I want to see more stuff from him with Sci-fi ties. He makes it real, gritty and scary/spooky/creepy as hell as that clip shows

See if you can find his old shorts and commercials. They're really creative and cool.

Yeah, the second part took a different route, but I thought it was still pretty good.

As far as the new video, I hope Blomkamp doesn't let D9 go to his head and make some crappy Sc-fi. The video doesn't tell all that much.

Here is his next project. Not much info about it yet, but I like the cast.

The second part of the movie broke down into an action flick, but it was still pretty damn good action. Love District 9.

I loved District 9. I never really knew much about it and then caught on HBO one day and was like "Holy shite...this is pretty badass"
