neill blomkamp's halo: arms race and other robo-goodies on video
you mention "Neill Blomkamp" [tagged] and i'll be there like a cyber-rash (LOL) and altho the live-action Halo Movie (which Neill was slated to direct) was not to be, here's a wee-glimpse at "what could have been" with Halo: Arms Race
a collaboration between Bungie Studios, director Neill Blomkamp, WETA Workshop and Origami Digital LLC, brings the first digital short depicting humanity's struggle to save Earth." = *cool*

i dunno about you folks, but to me; Neill's deft blend of real-life and the fantasy cybotic-realms melds into a sweet sense of (lulled) "reality" without the overt use of sci-fi grandous - making the unreal; understatedly "real" and at the same time, the excitement of story developments brewing in the undertones, and of scenes foreshadowed but not totally revealed - leaving one in anticipation, ushered in with his signature documentary-style presentation, always in the "middle" of a story, while conveying a measure of "history", IMHO ... and continues to entertain as such, altho it remains to be seen if this could be sustained for a prolonged duration, ie: a feature length project ... and i am looking forward to that opportunity, if ever it will be realized :)
