After looking at quite a few trailers, I get the impression this film may be a bit more than just a sci-fi, action, alien flick. I believe this is going to be somewhat of a social commentary on the way black South African’s were treated during apartheid. It’s set in South Africa (Cape Town?), the District 9 looks similar to a shanty town, and during one of the latest trailers, a reporter going in to investigate, discovers that the aliens are being treated poorly by the humans. Any ideas?

Actually, the idea that life can develop on some far away planet light years away and be human-like is HIGHLY improbable… That’s why aliens as they are portrayed in 99% of movies with aliens are pretty unbelievable. It’s just that we like to model everything after ourselves, realistic or not, our brains prefer to see things that way.

I was all excited about this movie when the trailer was playing until the interview scene. It took all the seriousness out of it (yes I know it’s just a movie). Insect looking aliens that’s the best they could do??? Didn’t we see that in Men In Black? It would have really been interesting if they made them close to humans but with slight morphological difference just to mess with us (not star trek ones but very human like) then that viral stuff might have worked.

i thought alienNation ran its course, so why is it back, star trek next Generation extended passed it…. why not some real stuff like the asteroid that hist this November and sinks all our continents 2 miles for 5 months

Yeah, someone needs to warn those helicopters not to flash bright lights at the aliens.

I’m actually really looking forward to it. Seemed like I was going to be disappointed because they only changed two things in this trailer.

But wow did that open the entire storyline. And I am sooo pumped. I can’t wait for this. I think it’s an entirely creative look on how humans might react to aliens, and them to us.

I have to admit,I liked the other trailer better with the alien’s face blurred out.I seemed a little more creepy to me.

Looks like they went cheap filming in South Africa, thats all the accents that you hear.

Somehow i dont think this going to be big, films shot in Africa, tend to be direct to dvd, or at best like Doomsday.

So thats probably what you can expect. pity.

Well chris, it’s more specific than just humans. As long as Americans are made out to be the bad guys, it will be “cool” and in style. That’s the current fad it seems.

I have to see the trailer again to be sure, but I think the humans interrogating the alien was speaking English with an American accent, but not 100% positive at this point, and am at work now so won’t really hear the audio too well…

oh god, this movie is going to be abother “humans want nothing but more technology” sort of film, we see it all the time, i mean look at movies like STARGATE, the minute this tech is found the military races in to claim weapons, it makes me sick! dont worry about making peace with another race and bettering ourselves, no just go grab their weapons “how do your weapons work” the concept is good im just over the miltary trying to grab anything to get the upper edge! sorry i know im ranting but this IS screenRANT after all…haha. and as far as the alien creature, i think it would have been better to see a “grey” alien sort of creature
