just, pls, stay away from the alien!

Pretty sure his involvement in the Alien franchise already fell through. So you're safe there.

I dunno he should really just make cut scenes for mainstream video games, its a much butter fit.

Maybe he should try filming a script written by someone who's not him or his wife. I think it would be good.

God is an asshole

I just came here to post that I watched the three latest Oats videos and let me tell you, they were all straight trash. I've lost all faith in this little venture. The last one is just... ugh. Look at this bullshit.

after watching the last couple of trailers (couldn't sit through anymore of his projects) i have to say, neill blomkamp is neil johnson 2: electric boogaloo

Maybe he's trying to bring back FMV games?

welp: someone needs $100 million

good god how was district 9 so good?

Firebase didn't even make sense tho. Audiences today are too cynical to suspend disbelief for the sake of unadulterated enjoyment.

They basically were like, "let's make the protagonist a GI who automatically turns into a badass when he gets some super high tech weapon decades ahead of what was available in the late 1960s, then let's make the antagonist some local farmer dude whose family was killed by American collateral damage, and inexplicably acquires the power to transform into a monster that can destroy anything in its path."

What.

never forget

Blomkamp in a nutshell: awesome visuals, crap storywriting

^^^ definitely agree. i think because his storytelling is so bad it never quite feels like it ever works properly eg. chappie

according to his twitch Q&A, he wanted to do rakka instead but sigourney weaver has already signed on to avatar so she was unavailable.

I'm starting to think maybe Blomkamp might be better off as an art director in the game industry, similar to Viktor Antonov's role with HL2 and Dishonored. Wonder if he'd consider that avenue.

yeh that would be an absolute fit for him.. just some AAA shooter world / mech design, he’d be good at it.

I like neil, i just think he should stick to what he is good at, the visual effects side of things. If he teamed up with a really good writer and director and actually let go of that mad control he seems to want with everything we might get something special. While there were some cool ideas in this oats experiment i fear he has burned money for nothing in the end.

^ Absolutely. He should team up with someone with writing and/or directing talent. I don't want to see him fail or give up, because his artwork is exceptional. Just seems like he's trying to do too much on his own.

His directing seems fine to me, his scriptwriting not so much.
