District 9 what was the fluid




















Did District 9 win any awards? Why are the aliens called prawns in District 9? How much did it cost to make District 9? How many times is the F word used in District 9? Is District 9 gory?

The Fluid is a liquid that seems to fuel everything that the Prawns use like their weapons and ships. The Fluid probably powers their everyday technology on their home planet. Elysium is about immigration, refugees and class warfare, etc.

Yes, District 9 is now available on American Netflix. This tension is in no way resolved by the film's conclusion.

Wikus appears to be virtually the only human who understands or respects the Prawns. More clashes between the two groups seems inevitable. Speaking of alien-on-human clashes, how excited do we think alien high command will be about Christopher's story? Even without the brutal torture and experimentation, aliens have been treated as second-class citizens and abused and manipulated by citizens of Earth for nearly three decades.

We don't know much about alien culture, but we do know they have some pretty insanely powerful guns and exo-skeleton power suits. Considering their guns explode enemies into tiny pieces of meat, it's hard to imagine they used laser cannons only for hunting excursions with the boys.

And who knows what other crazy weapons or bombs or ridiculously advanced technology the home planet might house? Wikus may have slightly softened Christopher's opinion of humans, but clearly Christopher is still upset about what's happened to his people. Either way, there's no easy way to explain what's going on without the Prawn leadership becoming furious. If aliens return with any sort of vengeance, humanity is probably screwed. At the beginning of the film, the aliens are contained in a Johannesburg slum referred to as District 9.

The aliens' proximity to the humans of the city creates endless friction. Sometimes the poverty-stricken aliens are coerced into crimes by gangs or suffer racial violence from their enraged human neighbors. Under the guise of humanitarian aid, the government moves the aliens to a new location outside the city limits — District The relocation effort goes poorly for Wikus as he contracts a crazy disease and is kidnapped by and experimented on by the government.

But that doesn't mean the actual operation was a failure. It's easy to be so focused on Wikus' struggles that we miss how the aliens were actually successfully transferred to a new home. We don't know much about how the aliens acclimate to their new environment or if it actually solves any of the deep-rooted issues in the area, but we do know any possible sequel would likely connect to District 10 in some way.

Although the relocation effort is performed under the guise of humanitarian aid, the primary reason Multi-National United wants to evict the aliens is so they can sweep for weapons. MNU is the world's second largest weapons manufacturer in the world. And what could possibly be a better sales item than honest-to-God alien laser guns? The problem, of course, is that alien guns don't fire for humans as they're DNA imprinted to only work with aliens. This is why MNU captures and experiments on aliens.

They need a way to take their DNA and somehow give it to human operators who can fire these powerful weapons. After Wikus blows up the lab and Christopher leaves on the mothership, there's no reason to expect those experiments to stop. In fact, they're likely to ramp up the activity as they now have proof of a human mixing their DNA with the Prawn somehow. The experiments will become worse, and MNU will probably at some point figure out a way to fire those alien weapons.

That's not good. Another way MNU could figure out how to fire those weapons is to recapture Wikus. Because Wikus is now fully alien, he can presumably still fire those weapons, which could make kidnapping him exceptionally difficult. It's not that he'd necessarily feel the need or desire to use alien weapons again, but Wikus is dangerous in that he knows a great deal about humans work and operate, yet he's now fully invested now in the success of the Prawns.

The only way he'll ever be cured is if the aliens agree to reverse the disease. He's no longer a friend of the MNU — especially after they released all those rumors about him contracting a sexually transmitted disease from the Prawn — so it's not that hard to imagine him using his abilities against the MNU in some way. Many of the problems that arise throughout District 9 come from the Prawn's inherent lack of agency and leadership. One of the talking heads during the documentary segment explains how possibly due to disease or malnutrition or something else, the aliens have lost all sense of direction.

As such, they're prone to addiction, listlessness, and general troublemaking. This theory was later confirmed and elaborated on by Blomkamp himself. He explained in an interview the reason the Prawns never outright rebelled against the humans is because they lacked any form of central leadership or organization.

They're inherently a hive-minded species, and whomever or whatever was in charge clearly died or was somehow lost during their mission to Earth. That said, Blomkamp suggested the aliens would eventually evolve to find a new leader. Given that information, it's easy to assume the new alien leader could possibly be Christopher, given his ability to work independently and prepare complex plans.
