Films that shaped it

I mean, Akira has influenced many filmmakers, including myself. That film for me, it's like, it's just the scale of it and the ideas are so vast. And it's just really, really good.

It’s hard to talk about a post-apocalyptic setting without referencing Mad Max in general, but obviously Mad Max 2 is the quintessential one... Yeah, I mean it's definitely something that I feel like has influenced my work.

I'm a huge fan of James Cameron. 'Aliens' is probably my favorite film. So obviously that has rubbed off on 'District 9,' definitely. I think subconsciously, a ton of Aliens rubbed off on District 9. Not only the subject matter of the xenomorphs themselves, but the whole military aspect.
