District 9 is one of my favorite sci-fi action movies from 2009 in which I still respect him for taking inspiration from his childhood during the apartheid era of South Africa (Fun Fact peter Jackson himself was involved in this movie, is the as well as this movie was meant to be a halo movie makes me loving the movie even more.) But still how did he went Someone who has potential but failed with not one, but three times in the form of Elysium, Chappie, and finally Demonic. Now, to be fair, he does seem to be still good with short films though. But still I’m a bit worried, and skeptical with District 10 and maybe Gran Turismo! Now I know people in this sub would call him a hack but honestly, I wouldn’t consider him that because I do think he’s talented proof with his short films I think the better way to describe them as Hollywood’s. Icarus someone who is ambitious leading to his failures? For example, chappie was inspired from one of his short films. But yeah, I don’t think he’s a hack at least compared to say D&D from Game of Thrones or Josh Trank (but that’s a different post for a different time but still.)
