Not gonna lie, that chick kinda freaks me out and might inhibit my ability to enjoy the movie.

She "could" be attractive, but her style is just so weird and unfeminine, it kinda ruins things.

I want to bang her pretty bad. I don't know what to think of their music. Sometimes I like it and sometimes I'm all whaaaaaaa?

saw the movie today at a free screening, it was pretty meh. Interesting for people who are into comp-sci/robots/AI/scifi, but poorly executed. Nothing really new in the movie, the human actors are all awfully written and one dimensional, and there are enough plot holes to drive a few squads of robocops through. Some pretty decent action scenes though, but all the science aspects are extremely bad.

I wouldn't bother seeing it at theaters, definitely one just to see at home when you are bored.

I hope the director does a better job with Aliens - I'm not sure which one was worse this or Elysium but its a pretty far downward spiral from District 9.

I think this guy suffered from Shamalyaman disease. He gets help writing a decent story and then thinks he can actually write himself. Nope, you can't

His movies are well made, so aliens could be good, but I'm starting to think its fucked if he writes that shit.

Why?! I'm all for Marvel stuff, but with the failure of Jupiter Ascending was finally looking forward to some good, original sci-fi. Interstellar was the last one and I need them flowing at least once every 4 months to keep my sanity. I see it is sitting at 7.4 on IMDB which is pretty decent though. I'll probably check it out.

His writing partner from district nine is coming back top help on aliens. The dude is brilliant with set design, visuals and world building with lofty high concept ideas, he just needs a good executive producers reigning him in and a good story teller.

Isn't his writing partner his wife (Terri Tatchell)? If so, she's also credited with co-writing Chappie, so it's sort of a toss-up as to whether or not she'll be beneficial to the Alien project.

For all its originality, people seem to forget District 9 also had a terribad plot (including spaceship fuel that turns humans into aliens...).

The only reason I am not seeing this is because Die Antwoord or however you spell her name. Her voice and mannerisms bother me too much.

Yolandi Visser. Die Antwoord is the rap group she's in with Ninja. Funny, she was probably the only likable character in the movie outside of Chappie himself.
