Yes. And Neill Blomkamp hasn't been the same since.

Yeah donno what happened. Definition of a one hit wonder sadly.

Cloverfield slapped more too me

Think so

Wait why are people saying the film is racist? Don't remember it too well

Nobody even talks about it anymore

REAL classic

omg rare cloverfield love on ktt

as a stan of giant monsters this is one of my fav film of all time

Are you aware of the ARG ????

District 9 was great, very fun and original

not a classic imo

Sorry to be that guy but it came out in 2009

No, should I check it out? :)

Hell yea fam the ARG provides so much interesting info about Clover and the people responsible for the attack

Personal classic of mine. Definitely gave me a rebirth of my love for sci-fi genre. It’s my favorite alien film of all time. Imo it gave a “realistic” depiction of aliens coming to Earth. Then the fact that first contact wasn’t in New York or America in general really wowed me at the time tbh. Arbitrary thing, but damn near any alien movie you think of, the setting is New York.

These aliens sure love America

it's really forgetful and the ending was terrible

Will have to watch and let you know!

dope film

oh its jaco

district 9 is one of the most interesting and original takes on the typical 'aliens arriving on earth'

and also executed wonderfully

That last sentence aint true at all, just off the top of my head:

Alien / aliens / close enconters of the third kind / the thing

All classics, none set in NY

havent seen the movie in years def should rewatch it s*** was nice

Loved it when it came out
