I really wish he'd do the Halo movie...

I was thoroughly impressed with this movie, from the story and the underlying meanings, to the camera work and the pace. I loved it, so far it's my favorite movie of 2009 and it is definitely in my top rank of movies ever. I highly recommend it.

I really wish Blomkamp would go back to the movie, instead of Speilberg...

That movie was really badass. Just think that that's his first movie... now imagine what is to come from Mr. Blomkamp in the future. District 9 was probably just the tip of the iceberg of his creativity.

Definitely go. It was so well done, and even the aliens look realistic and not CGI like or animated.. Of course, when you have Wingnut working with you, what else can you expect? But in all honesty, this movie was superb and I love it. It really makes you think what he could do with the Halo license if he were to go back to it. The Halo short was well done and entertaining for what it was. This man isn't about making the big bucks more than to just make one helluva movie and let people see his vision. So here I am, promoting District 9, because it deserves it and anyone who doesn't go is really missing out on some interesting ideas. The movie makes you think, and maybe a possible spoiler??? Makes you root for the aliens this time. End spoiler... Go see this movie. It really is good :)

although i was never interested in the halo universe in the first place, i would like to see what he can do with it. district 9 is simply amazing, it's the best movie i've watched in my life, for now of course. he did say sometime ago that even if he was offered to make a halo movie, he wont, though hopefully for the sake of halo fans, he changes his mind. you know what i'm thinking. i want this guy to work on a mass effect movie, seriously. him and peter jackson, the perfect combo, together with their special effect team. i would love to see a real-life looking turian.

Peter Jackson did not have much to do with this movie, and for me that is a good thing. I can not forgive him for King Kong. The Lord of the Rings movies are over rated...way too long and bloated. If he made a Halo movie, i am sure it would be a technical marvel, but probably overlong and boring too. IMO.

I agree, District 9 was fantastic. Would love it if Blomkamp came back to Halo as he would probably make it the dark, gritty and powerful movie it should be instead of a cgi heavy, kiddy, shallow travesty it's bound to be under Spielberg

Guillermo del Toro and Peter jackson are making the hobbit together?! Oh man that will be amazing. Del Toro has some of the best creature designs ever, can't wait to see that combined with Jackson's style.

No. King Kong was awesome and the Lord of the Rings were outstanding.

Glad people are as impressed by this movie as I was. I really hope he changes his mind and takes reign over the Halo movie again. I agree with a previous post here, I don't think Speilberg can do it justice. He's just not the same as he used to be.

I feel you OP, this movie was one of the best films I've seen in years. For me it was better then Dark Knight and....well thats the only good example I have here but the points made. Question I wanna ask is WHY NO XBOX LIVE CONTENT?! We get themes and gamerpics for crap like Final Destination but no District 9 love? Gimme my "Support non-humans" gamerpictures or better yet an avatar shirt. Sigh, one can dream eh?

I want a prawn arm and the mech suit. I would definitely spend my money on both of those, especially the mech suit. I saw the midnight showing of the movie, and I agree; Awesome movie, definitely my favorite movie to come out this year.

Haha that's a great idea! I would spend money on District 9 stuff. And I agree, this is the best movie since Dark Night. Iuno if it's better or not, seeing as how that was my last "top" movie. But both are up there.
