OTish: Neil Blomkamp ELYSIUM trailer

[Octavian Ureche]

Here is the official trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJ-bYOyQ46Y&feature=youtu.be

Don't know what to say. Mixed feelings about it. On one hand i am very much looking forward to it,

on the other hand it feels like a mix between Deponia, Halo and District 9. 

And the whole low class hero that saves the world is getting overused.

Hope to be wrong.

PS. As far as i know, it's the same vfx bunch that did District 9. Image engine, Embassy & Weta.

Wonder if the embassy handled the mechanical stuff once again.

Cheers,

The movie looks good, appears to be almost non-fiction, the way things are unfolding in the world.

Weta Digital didn't work on it (some wished), but the Workshop did.

Image Engine was the primary on Elysium and did the majority of the work.  There were other shops involved of course but this was really IE's gig, they supervised it.
