Films

I saw Elysium at the weekend too - didn't think it was amazing just ok. Matt Damon was totally wasted in it. Don't get me started on Jodie Foster - good concept. Just badly executed. Neill Blomkamp has already said there is not going to be a District 10 - which is sad. District 9 was just so good,

I think the hollywood effect is going to cut his career short. Box office wise the movie is not doing too badly though - so Matt Damon wins again.

No district 10 but he is workign on making a film with Die Antwoord who play themselves in a film where they've not really made any money from music so turn to crime instead. how can this not be brilliant?

For me the thing I liked the best about District 9 was Wickus (sp?) Copley played that part really well and in many ways made the film. With any other actor it wouldn't have worked. in some ways as much as I enjoyed him in Elysium it may have been better had he swapped roles with Damon - only because he makes me laugh a lot. Buut I digress it's the characters that seem to really drive the films he's made and in some ways the storyline is secondary so with Die Antwoord leading it it'll be interesting.
