Does anyone else remember seeing this video and getting excited for the movie?

I remember seeing This video and getting excited

[–] MacedWindow@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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.

It was amazing promo for 3 when they did this, they knew how to hype it perfectly. I watched this so many times back then

Don't do this, don't give me hope

No, that was Halo Reach

This was done a decade ago. There's no hope of it being a project now.
