we monitor many frequencies. we listen always. came a voice, out of the babel of tongues, speaking to us. it played us a mighty dub.
i'm sure it'll be just as good as all of blomkamp's other films

The faux-documentary style has gotta be pretty limiting, but did he do any movies in that style other than District 9?

he's done 2 "movies" ever, so .5 movies? the first 20 min of district 9?

all his student stuff was done in that style though, the short film tech demos are mock documentaries in exactly the style he used at the beginning of d9

i'm pretty sure his halo ads were too

the way it would just randomly jump back to documentary style, with the interviews apparently taking place after the action of the film was also bad

there were some reports that die antwoord were horrible to work with and that ninja was written out of later scenes because he kept harassing female production staff and sending them explicit photos of himself

that was a press piece for the film gussied up as tabloid journalism

i haven't yet figured out how blomkamp will make chappie racist but perhaps the presence of die antwoord will provide a way

perhaps it's a meta commentary, pointing out that it is us who are the true racists by expecting a bunch of white south africans to be horrible racists
