Totally. A prequel trilogy, a sequel trilogy, a tie-in tv show. An animated tv show. ARG. Collectible card game. Netflix anime. Chinese-only mobile game. Maybe prawn Wikus can tag along with a small prawn baby or some other alien creature that he needs to babysit too. Women love that.
>>
>>215689297
Wikus was a cunt to him constantly so I can see why he lied.
>>
For the dummies that didn't get it : All the prawns seen in the movie (except Christopher) are other species that the alien goop transformed into prawns, same as what happened to Wikus. Those were collected and used as manual labor on the big ship, except the actual prawn overlords died off for one reason or another and the goop-converted slaves didn't know shit from shinola so they were aimlessly idling about.
Christopher is not "coming back" because to him Wikus is just another convert slave of no relevance.

Real bummer, I thought we'd be getting great sci-fi movies out of him for years. Turns out it was just the one.
>>
>>215693482
Chappie was good and I liked Elysium because how guns felt. I think he got depressed because Halo never materialized. If you missed it his movies are actually very racist. It's kinda boring at this point and not every movie needs to be about how poor people turn on each other without a police state.

I hate Die Antwoord and really dislike Matt Damon so no thanks. I do believe he would have made a great Halo movie.

I like Elysium too but it has way too much exposition. At least Wikus can make it work.

also, how do we prevent freeloading prawns in our daily lives?

this but without sarcasm

it would be cool to have a new movie where the alien came back to save him and it all goes wrong or something

This unironically

the ending of the movie and the momentum it builds up is masterfully done. I still dont understand how nothing this director made since has been good.

so based. ten minutes to go and he's still hitting Christopher's head with a shovel

Kinda wild how the director's career went nowhere. Elysium, Chappie, and then youtube and then nothing.
>>
>>215689047
Gyllenhaal's looking rough
>>
>>215696788
He's still out there. He's doing an adaptation of Blindsight and apparently doing a remake of Starship Troopers
>>
>>215696788
Remember when he was supposed to direct the Halo movie and a new Alien movie with Sigourney Weaver? Instead he got stuck making worse versions of District 9 and also Gran Turismo of all things.

Blomkamp's Alien movie was set to go and was going to actually turn the series around. Senile Ridley smashed it though and made the utterly shit Covenant instead
>>
>>215695731
Critics ironically thought the film was about apartheid when the actual context was about other African immigrants coming into South Africa after the end of apartheid. If you watch the original short film they interview people and ask them about Nigerians etc. and then include that footage as if they're talking about aliens

Elysium is one of the most disappointing movie experiences of my life
>>
>>215699451
I remember seeing it for the first time, and immediately realizing it was going to be terrible when the exposition dump began after the start of the film.
>>
>>215698380
Not always, but it does mean you have to go back to doing small low budget stuff which not everyone is good at. Looking at Blomkamp's career, he never even made a small movie, he did VFX, made some Halo cinematics and from there directed a blockbuster. So it's no surprise his career hasn't been great since Elysium, but Gran Turismo was a bit of a comeback at least.
>>
>>215689047
I watched this movie when I was round a girl's house, drunk as fuck, as a teenager. I didn't undrstand why redditors rated this movie so much, and I had obnoxious reddit-tier taste as a teen. Was pretty cringe.

I mean there definitely seems to be if you only watch the beginning of the movie. But then the scifi stuff kicks in and, well you really end up looking deranged if you try to stick to the apartheid themes interpretation after Wikus's transformation. I doubt the overwhelming majority of stinkpiece writers who talked about the themes of this movie adnauseum shortly after release actually watched the whole thing. At least I hope they didn't.

Do you guys think Christopher was going to come back peacefully or with vengeful fury for what humanity did to his people?

>>215701270
Heres an idea. They come back, glass half the planet, but still lose due to whatever disease made them retarded in the events before the first movie. Christopher makes good on his problem, turns Vickus back into a human before leaving for good. Humanity reverse engineers some of their tech, the world is mostly a wasteland, all the rich white people build a halo ring and move off planet, with all the poors on earth still. Vickus, having lost everything, including his bitch wife becomes a bad ass mercenary. Matt Damon works at a comically evil factory. Call it "Paradise"

it works because Wikus is funny and goofy, and the joke is usually on him. Copley really earned that little Hollywood run he had with that performance.
>>
>>215696788
He keeps making the same movies, each worse than the last. I remember being disappointed by Elysium, and even that looks better than his more recent work
>>
>>215701250
Weren't the prawns a menial slave race which is why no ayy gave a shit to rescue them or the ship after it crashed?
He'd probably have more fondness of humans and hate those guys if anything. The military were cunts but the prawns dumber than Christopher were still given something of a place to stay and a human helped him run with the ship, even if for a "selfish" reason.

He did not seem like a guy who would choose violence given the option. He is, if anything, the moral core of the movie so he'd probably come back just to help his fellow FOOKEENN PRAWWNSSS. Whether he could deprawnify someone is anybody's guess, he did seem sincere at the end, he could have bailed without explanation. But truth be told he'd likely just go home.
