Wow. Just watched the District 9 trailer, and the start was a chilling reminder of the xenophobic tensions and attacks we had in South Africa last year....then as the trailer went on I recognised the accents and actors: South African. Clearly the movies is capitalising on that raw emotion and recent history, changing the "human xenophobia" to "alien xenophobia". I hope it delivers some hard-hitting social commentary, and is not just a vehicle for SF fluff.
