It is obvious just from watching Neill Blomkamp's short video stories that he is a much more visionary and skillful director than Ridley Scott now (Scott was as visionary back in the 1980s but time has moved on and Ridley has not adjusted well). This short film in particular is a wonderful work of art, sci-f and thrilling action. There is basically only one downside - it's too short. Judging solely from the art he did for his supposed Alien 5 project, it would have been or could be the best Alien sequel since Aliens. I hope some big shot in the production companies will give Neill a few hundred million to make the best Alien sequel and use all of his imagination displayed in this and several other short films to do a sci fi masterpiece, in the vein of this mind-blowing work of art.
