I just saw a television commercial talking about how non-humans had escaped from District Nine and directing me to the d-9.com website, so I think that whatever is going on, this is still kind of active.

I received an email advertising "The New District 9 MNU Alert Game". The pictures in the email make it look like an online game made to advertise the movie. I hope that's not all this was leading up to the whole time!

Here's the link:

Hey, on D-9.com sightings page, there is a message, not really a sighting from Comic Con, stating there will be a fan screening of the movie. It says to check the twitter and facebook pages for ticket info. I have called in about 4 sightings for my area, and I haven't seen any loaded up yet.

From the Comic-Con schedule page for Friday, July 24:
Quote:
3:45-5:00 Sony Pictures Entertainment: Legion and District 9— Sony Pictures Entertainment and Screen Gems introduce two great new movie projects exclusively to Comic-Con attendees!
...
District 9—Peter Jackson makes his eagerly and long-awaited first visit to Comic-Con to introduce you to the world of District 9, which focuses on a world in which extraterrestrials have become refugees in South Africa. Thirty years ago, aliens made first contact with Earth. Humans waited for the hostile attack or the giant advances in technology. Neither came. Instead, the aliens were refugees, the last survivors of their home world. The creatures were set up in a makeshift home in South Africa's District 9 as the world's nations argued over what to do with them—as well as their powerful technology and advanced weaponry that can only be activated by Alien DNA. Please join Peter Jackson as he gives fans a first look at scenes from District 9 and takes your questions along with director Neill Blomkamp and star Sharlto Copley. From Sony Pictures Entertainment

No mention there about tickets, unless the D-9 site meant admission to Comic-Con itself.

As for this

This is actually quite interesting. Its reminding me a lot of the whole Cloverfield thing where this fictional global issue is portrayed as real through a viral marketing campaign.

Hi guys I'm new here, I found out about d9 from the halo series.
Finally got through all 30 pages =)
I tried running QD- V- WXPPC VTG through a rot decoder, no luck so far.
Just a thought, but maybe it might be a human/non-human access code? I'll be testing it later.

Edit: Its not an access code :/

I really like this idea... too bad I'm absolutely awful at everything that is a computer game or video game. I hope someone is better than me and can try this theory out, hahah.
