Does anyone else remember seeing this video and getting excited for the movie?
I remember seeing This video and getting excited
I was so sure that was going to turn into a movie
It was a sure thing. It was greenlit with Peter Jackson producing and Niell Blomkamp directing. It went into development hell, sadly.
We did get District 9 out of the deal though (with Jackson still producing and Blomkamp directing), so at least something great came of that collaboration.
