Looks preachy. Aliens look cool though.

I already was planning to see it since I am a fan of "Alive in Joburg" but this makes me even more glad I am going to go see it.

If you haven't seen his original short film here it is: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNReejO7Zu8]YouTube - Alive in Joberg by Neill Blomkamp Spyfilms (Halo director)[/ame]

Looks preachy.

The good kind of preachy.

Aliens look cool though.

The good kind of aliens.

Aside from the mechas, I am interested.

 

[Arnwyn]

I love preachy movies, so I'm very interested in this.

Yeah, the aliens are obviously a metaphor for immigrants or other marginalized groups. This could be either really good or really bad.

I'm guessing it is more about refugees.

 

[Fallen Seraph]

I'm guessing it is more about refugees.

Well his original short film, Alive in Joburg is analogous to the South African apartheid. While it may have changed since then for the feature film I am willing to bet it will still be based off that.
