Video: Watch as deadly Matt Damon dispatches droids in the latest clip for sci-fi thriller Elysium

These weren’t the droids he was looking for.

JOE brings you the latest trailers in association with the good folk over at Magnet.

The latest clip for Neil Blonkamp’s sci-fi thriller has Max De Costa (Matt Damon) showing off his droid-dispatching talent, as he comes face-to-face with his robotic, gun-wielding enemy.

Set in 2154, Elysium tells the tale of De Costa, a man who takes it upon himself to break onto Elysium, a perfect, artificial space station that the rich and elite have built for themselves, while everyone else lives in poverty on a post-Apocalyptic Earth. Selfish basta*ds.

Although it’s only a short clip, it does contain some impressive slow motion, high-definition action and also has William Fichtner excellently delivering the cold line, “They are armed and I’d like them dead.”

And here’s the film’s original trailer in all its very impressive glory:

Elysium is due for release in Irish cinemas on 21 August.

Make sure to have the best broadband in town before trying to find out any more about 47 Ronin. Thankfully, the lads over at Magnet will be able to sort you out with their fatpipe which has up to 70mb broadband speeds.
