  • Tbqh... I almost cried, at this point in the movie. Neill Blomkamp did an excellent job of making the MNU into the enemy.

  • Poor pig

  • Fookin prawns! They dont belong here!!! And they're lazy too!

  • F*** you scientist!!

  • When they brought in the alien, I was like no, no no no no... and then when it happened I was just horrified. God knows what we might to if extraterrestrial lifeforms do appear. We're used to being the dominant race and out of fear and panic, humans will most likely do shit like this. It just makes me really sad...

  • @Ariel202113 do you eat prawns ?

  • @Ariel202113 me too...i wouldnt shoot an alien if it meant no harm. i mean, just knowing that we wouldnt be alone in the universe would be wonderful. humans should welcome prawns because of that.

  • @NerfWarrior1096 humans lose interest in things quickly

  • @htf5555 hmmm i guess so...

  • @jon99977 no they're not you stupid veggie cunt. we are simply the most powerful.

  • @jon99977 "Humans are the most savage, brutal, horrible creatures on earth."

    We are! :D

    And that is why we are THE apex predator on earth. The grim reality is that those qualities are the very things which have made us successful. We would not be where we are now if our ancestors hadn't ruthlessly subjugated every aspect of the natural world they could.

    It remains to be seen if our success will continue. Past a certain point, those successful qualities have now become self-destructive.

  • Matters

  • If we ever do get invaded by aliens I will join them. Anyway, This movie was fucking awesome!

  • its a fuckking movie you absolute idiots

  • hahaha shut the fuck up all you alien lovers your all pathetic.

    So what if we enforce apartheid on aliens? fuck them their not even meant to be here. There is no equality among different fucking species! If Aliens do come, i swear by God, i will chain them up and beat them.

    What is the UN regulations of the treatment of Aliens? Can i kill them or are they considered humans that they have "rights"?

  • @sanik00 If they had technology to come here you certainly wouldn't be chaining them up.

  • @bizzyb1999

    O so just because they have technology to come to us first means that they are physically capable to beat us? What if they came hear in an exodus and are suffering from disease or their starving? Fine, i'll rephrase, if we went to their planet could we enslave them? Maybe, depending on what weapons they already have and how large they are and if there invincible to our weapons. Same thing if they came hear, we might be invincible to their weapons or we might be superior in strength

  • @sanik00 Physical strength would have nothing to do with it. If they truly wanted us dead, they would just radiate our planet. But, assuming they're an intelligent species, they wouldn't be stupid enough to just go eradicating other intelligent life for no reason.

  • @bizzyb1999

    I never said if they wanted us dead, i was saying if they came hear (could be for a number of reasons). But yeah i guess so. If they wanted to radiate our planet, we could fire nuclear warheads and destroy their ships and they might have some super weakness towards uranium and retreat.

  • @bizzyb1999

    anything could happen :P

  • Well at least we're good at recognising our flaws.

  • No wonder we get invaded in the alien films, we're a bunch of dicks :L

  • @jon99977 That is generalization. Humans are a diverse species. What is true for these humans is not true for all of us. I would never do that, and I don't think most people would.

  • @Emperordmb We're a virus.

  • @billyboyjennings Every Species Has a Right to Life Including us, and other species.

  • @jon99977 Possibaly in the whole galaxy.

  • @jon99977 ok then if you say that go kill yourself because you are a human idiot...

  • @awesomemercenary why should he kill himself, it doesn't make any sence. What he said is a fact. You're both human and obviously you haven't killed yourself despite this fact so why should he?

  • @jon99977 Forget the sharks, and the lions, if they were here today dinosaurs, and birds of prey, and grizzly bears, and Japanese killer bees. humans are the most savage creatures on earth. d=(^>'_'^)z

  • This movie was art...that is the only way to describe it. Anything more is superfluous and anything less is inadequate

  • This guy should do a stand up comedy act....for some reason i thought his accent was hilarious, especially when he was evicting christopher the prawn, and asked him if the little prawn was his "little runt" and not to "point his fookin tentacles at him", i was dying laughing

  • @jon99977 yes and im human (mainly because i can type this DUH!) but its sad what we do to other animals

  • It's amazing how the animators were able to put so much emotion into the prawns' faces for creatures who have... tentacles for a mouth.

  • who wants to get some prawn arm and shoot the crap out of those MNU faggots?

  • @kristarnold85 Wikus want

  • @jon99977 yeah but you cant say it hasnt got us places. still, fuck humanity.

  • FUCK YOU WIFE

  • poor prawn all he wanted was to sit on his alien couch and eat some cat food

  • I like this movie because it wasn't in black and white, i mean, humans and prawns had both good and savage in their race, unlike Avatar, which clearly shows that all humans are evil.

  • @TheInspector3000 Not aaaaalll humans, its more about capitalism being evil. That what I got, anyway.

  • @McFearless92 for witch movie, for avatar is was capitalism, which is very generic antagonist that are seen all over the world in smaller amounts. in D9 the bad gusy were more realistic, their injustice is spread from fear and profit from it, not as "oh we have no compassion even though they arn't horrible squid people." in avatar.

  • @TheInspector3000 All in all, "Avatar" was only "Disney's Pocahontas" in blue. ;)

  • @McFearless92 You got it wrong. Capitalism isn't evil, it's the reason you have the freedom and quality of life that you currently enjoy.

  • @TheInspector3000

    Pretty much all the humans shown in this movie (and given roles) were pretty much bad, except for Wikus and his friend (who exposes MNU's activities on te Prawns at the end), and Wikus is kind of a dick. Avatar had more good guys than this one.

  • @pinheadman665 Welcome to real fucking life, man.

  • @Nphektiv

    Yep, I've known this since quite a few years ago. I was just saying to a commentor that District 9's humans were much more vile and cruel than Avatar's humans.

  • I felt so bad when i saw this, i almost cry :(

  • THE ONLY HUMAN WITH HUMANITY IS A PRAWN

  • @me3obsessed12 U m4d br0?

  • Oh god I wish there were more movies like this one.

  • Thats what humans would do, they like to kill. Thats their #1 priority is to kill when something is on earth.

  • Can't wait for Christopher to come back to Earth and kick all our asses.

  • @ryanthomson2010 did u watched battle los angles?

  • @ryanthomson2010 True. I saw a website, that said there making a new one.

  • @ceejaybuchanan Yas ! can't wait !

  • This scene was heart wrenching

  • @samisacool1 uhm, most of the prawns are just trying to scrape out a living, what you just said was incredibly biased. Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of happiness is the god-given right of every living being.

  • I loved weapons in District 9, very realistic, and they looked actually functional if they were made. Unlike most other scifis like Star Wars.

  • I remember watching this during the movie itself and I still find is really upsetting. I couldn't even sit through the whole thing. :(

  • @samisacool1 dude, do you realize the incredibly strong racist undertone you had in that statement? It's almost laughable.

  • I shed a tear when this happened.

  • Wahhhh the poor prawn boo hoo

  • Humans are discusting, i know its a film, but if it happend in real life they wouldent hesatate to do this, im ashamed of being human.

  • The horrors that human kind generates...

    Great movie, really underestimated. One of the best sci fi movies of the last years.

  • @jon99977 And Earth is also getting the crap of climate problems.

  • Remembr this could be Real in a few year's !!!!!!......

  • @CHMgamemedic777

    give or take a couple of centuries. The SETI institue still hasnt recieved a response in space!

  • I hate the humans in this movie! Grrrrr!

  • Nooooooo!!! you bastards!!!!!!

  • They aren't meant to be weapons, I don't think. I think they are supposed to be excavation tools...

  • You can't help but feel so awful for that poor prawn. :(

  • @InjexDnB i just finished seeng the film and i when he was about to do it i sed NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­O YOU BASTER DS

  • I'm glad Avatar and District 9 came out in the same year, showing humans as the savages rather than the "aliens"

  • this movie is depressing

  • It is amazing how much they gave the alien emotion, so real. The terrified look, the quivering. It made my heart ache.

  • @lkafjkakjf333 right! i alomost starded crying in that part there so mean 2 them =(

  • That was dick move using the prawn as a target. Are we really like that? Are we that savage?

  • @AVPPREDALIEN We tell ourselves no.

  • @AVPPREDALIEN You gotta make sure that prawn weapons can work against prawns.

  • poor alien =( he or she didn't deserve that =(

  • District 9 > Avatar

  • @Delta0prative Avatar = Battle for Terra = im-bloody-plausible

  • that's like putting an innocent human being infront of a rocket launcher operated by aliens

  • @truflke They are not human they are invading us therefore we shall use no mercy

  • @johnnyvincentfan The Aliens Didn't Invade Us In The Movie, Their Ship Broken Down In Our Atmosphere And They Needed Our Help...BIG Difference From Being Invaded.

  • @07liberian Oh.

  • @johnnyvincentfan I Hope You Learned Something 8).

    Don't Answer That.

  • All in the name of giving (a specific few) humans a bigger gun. To use on each other.

  • @pinkypie358 stupid comment

  • "I can pull the shit out of it!"

  • This is how corporations will act, completely amoral, if you let them, America.  Monsanto being top of that list.

  • @cannonski with the goverment condoning it as long as they get there end result

  • @samisacool1 Then you happend

  • Probably the only movie where I nearly started crying in the theatre. I felt really wimpy too. The prawn that was killed had no backstory or anything. He was just some random alien that got killed.

    Still, there's something gut-wrenching about seeing a target painted on another living thing before it's pushed in front of a gun.

  • @1M4nW01fp4ack It's very easy to foist the badness onto others but all humans can react this way. You, me, anyone.

    That's biology. Sad but so very true. Honestly we are all guilty of this to an extent.

  • you could say that theese alien are

    *puts on sunglasses*

    more "prawn" than brain

    YEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!

  • @samisacool1 lol ok let me put u in front of a fucking gauss rifle and then shoot ur ass see how u like it?

  • I like that guy. He didn't want to kill the prawn

  • This scene always makes me realy agitated and anxious. it's so tense and poignant.

  • @DaEnglishGeeza fuck off what the fuck did they do to u dont say shit unless u know what it feels like all im saying

  • @D4rkSid31 It's just a stupid prawn I'd love to toture one of those filthy things...

  • @DaEnglishGeeza were like animals...except they made a space ship...that can travel across the galaxy...and were forced out of their ship and thrown into a slum to fight over scraps and then told to move into a concentration camp...I don't get your logic

  • Muhahaha die alien scum DIE!!!!

  • @DaEnglishGeeza Ya know what? Fuck you

  • WELL AT LEAST BATTLE LA IS CUMIN OUT

  • WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU HYUMAN STINK BEASTS? YOU DESTROY EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL AND WHEN YOU FIND AN ALIEN RACE YOU ARE OBSESSED WITH DOING EXPERIMENTS ON THEM ps: this isint for all humans just the bad ones who do this stuff

  • very strong video, this movie is definetly more realistic than avatar

  • This part is sad

  • who the fuck would do that! thats a act of fucking war! those people who did that deserve to die in hell!, i havent seen the movie, did the aliens fight back? if the diddent there better be a sequel where they do!

  • @TheAaron404 Most the aliens aren't even sentient, they're about as smart as chimpanzees, and some seem about as dumb as cows. They seems to be a caste-society, with more intelligent individuals in command of a bunch of drones.

  • @Halo4Lyf Is this not the case with us humans also?

  • @Rhysesmum Touche.

  • In my art history class we started doin movie appreciation and my teacher asked what movie do I think had the most realistic special effects, and I said district 9...THE REST of my retarded class not only didn't know what the movie was but also claimed that avatar was much better and a 'work of art'. So it took me about an hour to explain to them how the prawns in district 9 felt much more real and relatable than the 'perfect' and 'beautiful' na'vi in avatar etc.

    I hate people -.-

  • Stupid humans....wait...thats us......

  • Like a fly on a "Zapper!"

    God I love watching those damn things die.

  • peta would not approve! XD

  • This movie in my opinion taught me that humans is the real evil, not them... watching that poor little prawn die, i died a little inside too.. )': give the prawns liberty!!!

  • This scene bothered the hell out of me in the theater.

  • @1lt10160 on the tv too crap

  • 0:57 orgasm!

  • im crying at the moment 

  • Alright audiences nowadays are really stupid this film deserves all of the credibility Avatar received. What the fuck is avatar about-Pocahontus with big blue cat people. This film is completely original and over the course of a year or two, Neill Blomkamp conceived a screenplay that was nominated for the best screenplay oscar. James Camerons screenplay got no nomination despite what people call "original". This film was nominated for best picture as well-which it completely deserves.

  • @davedirector7

    Where the fuck is Avatar related to this movie?

    You really wanna turn District 9 fans against Avatar fans?

    You piece of Trollshit.

  • @axelnemeth nah your the troll here. They are both scifi films of 2009 and im showing which is the better one and clearly district 9 is the better one.

    Avatar fans seriously do not know anything about what a film is supposed to be about.....

  • @davedirector7

    Neither movies are sci-fi, "movie expert"...

    Go back to your closet and weep.

  • @axelnemeth um you are quite stupid. They are in fact-BOTH SCIFI. Good god, people are losing brain cells reading your comments

  • @axelnemeth Excuse me but.....Aliens....A starship...alien weapons and MECHSUITS!

    How the fuck is that not scifi?

  • @hyperdude144

    Because that movie isn't about the technological advantage off the "prawns", how did they get there, where are they from, how have they evolved into bipedal insects.

    District 9 is a movie that fits well in the Realism, as in literature, mostly because the main character is a nervous, mild-mannered man, who hasn't any special traits or motivation, and the movie show us how do those people, that goverment, reacts to these aliens and how they treat them.

    The message is clear:

  • @hyperdude144

    They couldn't fit in modern civilization, and they also didn't share their technological secrets, which means they were pretty useless, but the only reason the humans didn't exterminate them is because they were afraid of an invasion.Once they found out how Wikus can fire the alien weapons...

    The human nature is just like that:"Take what you need,destroy what you don't".

    Sure it had some sci-fi elements,

    but a movie that close to reality is not likely a "science-fiction".

  • @axelnemeth and not to mention-there are practically thousands of people online turning district 9 fans against avatar fans.

  • @davedirector7 What kills me is that The Hurt Locker won Best Picture. What? That movie was hella boring! District 9 was the best movie of that year for me.

  • @Retrowinter dude for me im just glad that movie beat avatar however

  • @davedirector7 I agree. Avatar is way overrated. Great visual effects, but recycled, completely predictable story.

  • @davedirector7 oh wow avatar and district 9 have the same themes of racism cant u all just focus on the similarites and not call avatar unoriginal when in fact it follows the basic storyline man vs. nature while this is.......... man vs. man???? something along those lines

  • @paleobc65 ur thinking way too simply sir lol

  • @paleobc65 btw district 9 had a much better screenplay, it had great visuals, and the storyline is basic? I'm sorry but the character from the beginning unlike Avatar, was a complete jerk and he turned into a man who comes to his senses and helps aliens escape. Yes there may be some man vs man elements, but then again you have to understand that the story stands out here more.

  • @davedirector7 (Nods Up And Down) I Agree District 9 Is Way Better Than Avatar, Avatar Is Just Blue People Fighting Something I Never Even Watched It district 9 derserves More Credit.

  • @davedirector7

    I have to agree. Avatar had no memorable characters or plot. It was all about spectacle. I enjoyed Avatar, but strictly from an aesthetic standpoint. It was visually beautiful, but that is pretty much all there was to it.

    District 9 is MUCH more original and special in a lot of ways; overall, a better movie.

  • neone here would have sex with a prawnie?? :D

  • @vafbsgb no but da hooker did in da movie

  • Prawn.. crackers anyone?

    huehuehueh!

  • NNOOOOOOOOOOOOO ITS SUCH A CUTE CREATURE WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT??!?

  • Focking prawn xD

  • WOW! Poor Prawn!

  • Ow, poor prawn.

  • YOU BLOODY PRAWN!!!

  • great scene. MNU could have used a corpse but they chose the live one.

    but seriously, all of you who talk about how humans are evil are being irrational. it isn't all humans, it is just the corporation that did that. you even saw around the beginning the alien rights protesters. and also, the aliens in it were just from the worker caste of their species, with a few leader workers among them (I.e. Christopher and the other green ones.) so imagine what the warriors of their species have in store.

  • @ebrowne369

    very well said.... couldn't have put it better myself

  • @klingon5889 lots of people say that :)

  • wow what did it do that was so bad

  • @rjamesify The alien didn't do anything wrong. It was simply unlucky enough to have been rounded up by these guys, to be used in experiments. The government wants to learn how to use their technology, and also want to know their weaknesses, etc. 

  • poor alien :'( i was so sad just seeing it standing there shaking like "what did i do? :("

  • it's wierd cause aliens who get blown to pieces are usually shown as the bad guys,

    when this one is obviously innocent and helpless. it shows the humans as the monsters.

  • @glitcheroftime its kinda trying to say that we although can be the most rational life we can also be the most irrational i think thats just my perspective anyway

  • So sad... just seeing the helpless little creature standing there...=(

  • @allensu360 its just a fucken movie

  • @allensu360 Helpless, yet

    Little...eeeehhhh

  • I love how its so unnecessary to shoot a live Prawn but they do it anyway.

  • This made me almost scream in terror when I first saw it. I had to cover my mouth and curl up in my seat not too.

  • i mean for me im being used to seeing aliens getting splattered all over the place then i saw this and it literally made me misty eyed... this was a great film

  • Don't hurt the pr0nz...:(

  • MNU are dicks -.-

  • @hijko123 americas government are dicks my man

  • @Smarsa90 It's not the American gov. in this movie. It's Johannesburg, South Africa.

  • @runRockyrun uhh im pretty sure they got their funds and intel and permission from the u.s to do shit like this

  • Using it on a prawn? MNU is crazy. Did they actually run out of things to shoot?

  • He needs a oscar.
