A new trailer for Neill Blomkamp's "Elysium" is out, revealing many new details about the movie's plot and setting.
In the movie, set in 2154, humanity is divided into two castes: the rich and privileged live on paradise-like Elysium, while the poor toil away in a dark, depressing future Earth.
The first theatrical trailer focused on showing us the beautiful world of Elysium and a many action sequences from the movie. At 3:17, the new trailer is considerably longer, and it reveals much more about the life on Earth, where machines rule over the human population.
Blomkamp is best known for his feature debut, "District 9," which surprised many sci-fi fans with a realistic portrayal of an alien visit, and great visuals created on a tight budget. With Elysium, Blomkamp had a much bigger budget at his disposal, and it shows -- Elysium looks gorgeous, while the landscapes of Earth are convincingly dilapidated and dreary.
