    I still remember burning the DVDrw and printing out the cover, all these years later. Wierd memory to be so engrained.

    That movie should have gotten way more accolades, such a fantastic film.

    Also, District9 kinda always felt like it had a bit of the Isreal/Palestine conflict feeling to it.

      That’s cos D9 was about apartheid so you saw a modern apartheid state and saw a correlation.

      Neil Blomkamp is South African. D9 was about the group areas act that removed people from their homes into townships all over South Africa.

        Yep, I lived with 4 other guys at the time and we were all so excited to put it up on the massive trinitron TV. Man that tv… God of War never looked so amazing.
