One of my buddies is worried about those individuals being in it, like they will "Ruin" the flick. I have no idea who they are and am completely unfamiliar with South African hip hop.

I am actually expecting it to be awful, maybe I will be pleasantly surprised because I am going to see it regardless.

Yeah I was thinking about Short Circuit as well. This looks like it could be a bit darker and more serious.

I read a bunch of hilarious articles about how that ninja guy was hated by most of the other people in the movie. Even had to rewrite and remove some of his biggest scenes because other actors refused to deal with him at all anymore. Funny stuff.

You can google it and find lots of different articles and sources. Some of his "antics" seem pretty harmless but a few of them are just odd.

Wow... if those reports are true, it sounds like 'Ninja' is one egomaniacal prick and Die Antwoord's acting career just got killed as quickly as it started with their (at least his) on-set antics...
Makes me glad I never bought any of their albums or paid to see them in concert.

Here's an interesting post from DA's Facebook from last year if you can suffer through it (the grammar & spelling is atrocious):
Quote:
CHAPPIE
'After being kidnapped by two criminals during birth, Chappie becomes the adopted son in a strange and dysfunctional family. Chappie is preternaturally gifted, one of a kind, a prodigy. He also happens to be a robot.'
fuck man
shooting CHAPPIE was so fukn cool!
this may sound corny but it really and truly was a dream cum tru!!!
when we 1st saw DISTRICT 9 (like 3 or 4 years ago) we were so mindfuckingly blown away, 1stly becoz it was a South African film, (which are usually notoriusly shit) but not only was it so shockingly good... D9 made me feel the same way i felt when i watched TERMINATOR 2 wen i was a kid!
and i didnt know i could still feel so excited about a movie like that!!!
and BAM!
just like dat...
...Neill Blomkamp became our favourite director / artist on da planet
THEN!!!! when we got an email (like 3 years ago) from Neill with the subject:
OH MY GOD!
and a lil mail that said:
I FUCKING LOVE YOU GUYS!
we nearly died!!!
but we also thought...
fuck, it this really Neill Blomkamp???
then Neill came backstage to say hi 2 us after a DA concert in vancouver....
...and we was like jeeeziz krrraaaaist!!! it really is him!!!
...and we showed Neill da D9 tattoos we both have chopped inside of our mouths... and we all became super good friends!!
i know this sounds corny, but u really should ALWAYS believe it your dreams!
i had heard other famous people say this before, like Mariah Carey and Biggy Smalls and whoever... and it always sounded like, far-fetched or something...
we worked with Neill on CHAPPIE for 2 years BEFORE we finally shot it, and when you aim high... boy u gonna get tested!!!
for some God known reason, when u aiming 4 the top, some people just wanna take u down!!! lol!
probably coz they too lazy too reach for the top themselves, and instead of rooting for you, they try fuck you...
not everyone tho!
most people love it when you shine!
cos it excites them and maybe even inspires them to do the same
plus fucking with Die Antwoord is pretty much like throwing stones at a tank.
so anyway, Neill met sooo many challenges putting this insane masterpiece explosion of a film together, mainly cos of the HUGE gamble he was taking by casting these 2 weird-ass ZEF motherfuckers from the dark depths of afrika, as the LEAD ROLES!!! starring along side a robot!!!
but that man fought so hard, tooth and nail to keep us as the leads!!!
...and to keep our identities 100% AUTHENTIC!
and because Neill's vision was so strong and so clear...he won!!!!
...and damn, everyone is soooo tweaked out by how fucking crazy cool this movie is coming together!!!
me and ¥ are tweaked out the most!!!
its just so nuts dat we get to star in a big ass hollywood sci-fi film, set in south africa, as OURSELVES!!!
i mean fuck, its almost like a miracle or something!!!
and Neill is such a fuckin genius, plus he has da fuckn ultimate sci-fi
style of all time... so rugged and raw!!!
the only difficult thing is that we have to wait sooooo long to see it!!!
aaaaargggghhhh!!!!
but holy fuck, its gonna be worth the wait!!!
so...
we gonna carry on finishing up this here DONKER MAG album FULL FORCE, till its ready to drop!!!
den straight after it drops we gonna start ripping anudda big fat muddafukn world tour....
...while working on a whole buncha other fun and exciting secret stuff!!!
(i WISH i could tell you what our LA meetings was about!!! fuck!)
plus we gonna b dropping a HOLE buncha videos for DONKER MAG one after anudda this year...like bam bam bam bam!
...plus we gonna be sliding out sum juicy ass behind da scenes footage from our world tour... mmm!!!!
...plus we taking our new live show to a HOLD udda level...
and jeeeeee-ZIZ i cant WAIT to add all these new DM tracks 2 our live set.... i wanna rap all dis new shit live sooooo fkn bad!!!!
time fies when you havin da most fkn fun u ever had in yor hole life!!!
and u know how we do!!!
NINJA!
¥O-LANDI!
an DJ MUDDAFUKKN HI-TEK
commin atcha full force
soon soon soooon!!!
till...
...march 2015 when this bad-asss Neill Blomkamp - DA collab drops and.....
aaah man...
dont worry...
u wont b sorry for long...
patience
patience like the stalker
love is love love
xxx
n


Fast forward to today: that friendship appears to have run its course
Quote:
“I don’t ever want to be in the same room as him again,” said Blomkamp of Ninja, according to sources.


All that aside, still looking forward to this flick. District 9 is one of my favorite films and Elysium grew on me more after watching it again..



Did anybody happen to catch the Die Antwoord spoof on Kroll Show this week? Pretty funny stuff (I'd post a Youtube clip but the audio is shit). Didn't even recognize Kristen Schaal as Yolandi.

They are a pair those two. That's a lot of the appeal and they make catchy songs.

If this movie is half as entertaining as district 9 then lm sure I'll get my money's worth.

No clue what might or might not have transpired on set and I'm only mildly excited at best for the movie, but this cracks me up very much:

Quote:
Die Antwoord’s Ninja ‘is pure evil’

...

After work on set, Ninja allegedly took star actor Dev Patel on a visit to the suburb to “show him the hood”, says a source.

During the visit, “Ninja gave Dev a ‘space cake’ to eat. Dev ate some but then his bodyguard took it saying there might be marijuana inside. Dev was livid.”

Another source in the production crew said that Patel complained to producers about the incident.

unfortunately, Idiocracy is turning out to be more documentary than comedy & incoherent rambling will displace formal communication structure in the not too distant future.

I'm sure there will always be an academic segment of the populous that will hold on to the old ways or at least proper discourse techniques.

Ninja obviously writes like the burnt out user that he is. I will add that some SB people speak just like that on IG and here sometimes. No everyone is lucky enough to have a burgeois education like us :tophatandmonocleemoji:


It's just a matter of considering in which circles we associate, since the world is big enough to have decent discourse and whatever-ninja-writes is called.

I do enjoy the troves of shitty writing SB has exposed me to (there's some good stuff too). It pushes me to try and not sound as dumb or silly. I'm looking at you GSC.

Listening to Ninja speak makes reading what he writes a breeze. I do like Die Antwoord's music, though.

That video would make for a lethal drinking game. Take a shot every time he says 'like' and you'll be, like, stumbling for the, like, offy after 3 minutes from lack of booze left in the, like, house.

I've only seen District 9 but I was expecting this

It doesn't look like Chappie will be dark like this Tetra Vaal footage.

Guess I'll have to watch it in bites of 3 1/2 minutes over several weeks then, because I don't think I could take a Die Antwoord clip that goes on for 90...

I had never heard of Die Antwoord until someone here mentioned it in regards to Chappie... I just checked out a couple videos... I'm all for varying music, but this? I feel bad for the generation this music belongs to.
