So there's going to be a movie based on the Xbox game Halo, produced by Peter Jackson, and they've picked a director who's never made a feature film: Neill Blomkamp. Who is this guy? You've most likely seen the transforming Citroën ad? You can check out that and a few other commercials on this page.
He also made a short called TempBot, featuring a robot trying to fit in to an office environment.
Perhaps most interesting is the short called Alive in Joburg, where he uses cinéma vérité visual effects to tell a story of aliens in apartheid South Africa.
I don't care how much people joke about "shakycams"; I love shakycam CGI. :)
I think I may well be looking forward to the Halo movie more than the actual Transformers movie because that's being directed by Michael Bay. :P
