Fun fact, Neil Blomkamp was also working on an Alien 5 pitch to Fox that would've ignored the last two films, if the concept art was anything to go by:





I had no idea. Would have been good to great i bet, as would have Neill Blomkamp Terminator :\

I got to meet Die Antword once and they were both very quiet and really polite. They get my support.

It's a bit longer, and has a student film quality vibe to it. It doesn't really match the other Blomkamp stuff as it feels like an IFC or Adult Swim produced comedy. Yes that is in fact Lynda Carter.

The robot is basically a goon in this one. :mmmhmm:

So does he build those robots irl and do like stop motion animation or what?:

I saw a test screening of this movie a few months ago that seemed pretty much complete except for the robot CGI. Baring any changes they do to the final cut:

1. Die Antwood is in this movie a lot more than the preview would have you believe. They're pretty much the main characters, and are on screen probably 2/3 of the time.

2. It's a lot lighter than the preview makes it seem. I wouldn't say it's a comedy, but it's not the heavy moral exploration like the preview puts forth. I'd say it's tone is much more District 9 than Elysium. Of course that part's probably the most likely to change if it didn't screen well.

3. This movie is going to bomb big-time in the States because it's very into the South African underground culture. It's not bad, I liked it and will see it again when it comes out, but it's too out there for the mainstream US audience who will tend to be more like

Tzeentch can suck it.
All his movies are the loving same thing. He is one of the only movie directors who is actually typecast.
