    I work in grocery. I have not gotten sick. My fellow employees have not gotten sick. If the virus were even remotely as contagious as its being presented as, why haven’t entire store staffs who come into contact with hundreds of people per day, thousands per week, all falling ill in mass nationwide?

    Turns out "Blomkamp" is Afrikaans for "bad idea." Who knew?

    I’ll believe it when I see it.

    His name has been attached to so many things that were TOTALLY DEFINITELY HAPPENING!...then didn’t.

    I dont think anything he was attached to was "totally definitely happening".

    He wrote a fifth Alien film that the studio rejected for Scott's version. (all he did was release a bunch of concept art for it)

    And then the he produced a bunch of shorts, hoping a studio would want to move forward with one of them. (none of them wanted it).

    Then he tried to crowdfund one of the projects. (it didn't earn enogh money. )

    This is a greenlit project by a major motion studio.

    Both District 9 and Elysium had sequels that got pretty far into pre production then never materialized, and his name was attached to Star Trek before Justin Lin.

    And I definitely felt like his Alien 5 was being touted as “this is happening for sure”. Both Sigourney Weaver and Michael Biehn said they were doing it. Unless everyone was just incredibly hopeful.

    Blomkamp is near Tarantino / Del Toro level of talking up projects that never happen.

    I hadn't heard of the sequels to those first two films. Would be nice though. I'm a fan of both.
