‘Elysium’ Viral Website Launches: Can You Secure A Place Off Earth?
16 May 2013 3:42 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
They’re been teasing this website longer than you can say something long but now, finally, the slightly creepy Elysium viral campaign website has launched! If you’re not sure what I mean by viral campaign, it’s like a mix of movie marketing that also starts to make the world from the movie real. Well, as real as viably possible.
In this case, there’s an automated plastic-looking robot man who asks you questions to see if you can enter their unique and perfect Elysium world. If you fail though, or if you answer their questions in the wrong way, there’s a possibility you’ll never get off Earth (which is crumbling to pieces), and you will never experience the beauty and luxury of this so-called asylum called, quite aptly, Elysium.
If you still think I’m babbling nonsense, it’s for the new Neill Blomkamp (District 9) film starring Matt Damon, »

Bored at work? A fun little piece of viral marketing has come out for Neill Blomkamp’s Elysium. It’s the “Elysium Citizenship Initiative” Test, which determines whether or not you could live in the space station city that is the film’s setting (and title). To take the test, go to ItsBetterUpHere.com.
The film opens August 9th and stars Matt Damon, Jodie Foster, Copley, Alice Braga, Diego Luna, William Fichtner and Wagner Moura. I predict it to be the best of the dystopian movies this summer, topping Oblivion and After Earth. »
