District 9 is a pretty exciting upcoming movie directed by Peter Jackson. The man behind the amazing directorship of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I’m sure this is one of those movies that will keep you from blinking out of awe.
Here’s the trailer:
Thirty years ago, aliens made first contact with Earth. Humans waited for the hostile attack, or the giant advances in technology. Neither came. Instead, the aliens were refugees, the last survivors of their home world. The creatures were set up in a makeshift home in South Africa’s District 9 as the world’s nations argued over what to do with them.
Now, patience over the alien situation has run out. Control over the aliens has been contracted out to Multi-National United (MNU), a private company uninterested in the aliens’ welfare – they will receive tremendous profits if they can make the aliens’ awesome weaponry work. So far, they have failed; activation of the weaponry requires alien DNA.
The tension between the aliens and the humans comes to a head when an MNU field operative, Wikus van der Merwe (Sharlto Copley), contracts a mysterious virus that begins changing his DNA. Wikus quickly becomes the most hunted man in the world, as well as the most valuable – he is the key to unlocking the secrets of alien technology. Ostracized and friendless, there is only one place left for him to hide: District 9.
The movies this summer rocks my socks babey! This month alone I’ve watched Transformers twice, Ice Age twice, Harry Potter, 17 again, Night at the Museum and yesterday..
The special screening of Ghosts of Girlfriends Past for Nuffnangers at TGV 1Utama which is due to premiere only next week in Malaysia! :) Yeehaaa, we watched it 1 week earlier. *dances*
No wonder I’m so broke this month, that I even have to borrow some cash from my younger bro.
Anyhow, if you want to catch the Nuffnang premiere of District 9 earlier than the actual premiere itself, head on here to find out how ;)
