[mr.negativity]

District 9 director Neill Blomkamp releases a monster-ridden first look at his new experimental film series, Oats Studios.

It looks cool, but is it really experimental? What does that word mean in this context?

"The experimental work of the visionary director..."

Yup, go back and replace the Twilight Zone and Outer Limits intros with that phrase!

It's probably just Hollywood code for "low budget".

i'm gathering that its a series of short films making up an overall story, which would be experimental. Kind of like a World War Z (book) approach to the Lizardman invasion

^One of the greatest. I remember watching it on it's crazy brief Sci-Fi channel run (it ended up on adult swim a year or two later) and I had that feeling that no one else on planet Earth was watching it that just made it feel all the more special.

Whenever I encounter anyone, anyone who's got that combo of pretension, self-seriousness, and full-of-themselves I immediately think of Garth Marenghi.

^^REALLY wish someone would release this on DVD, loved it(and the first season of "Look Around You")when it aired on Adult Swim.
