District 9 Page #2
You see now,
these are the cowboys.
They shoot first, and then
they answer the questions.
Sorry, is this above the allocated
amount of ammunition?
Because I see your
pouches are full but...
speak to the colonel.
F.A.G. over here says that
we got too much ammunition.
No, all I'm saying, Koobus,
is that, you know...
you should find ways of making
you guys more efficient...
Listen to me, you f***!
Get him outta my face.
There are rules, we're all living
by rules in this world.
Well, l don't think he can
be forgiven for what he did,
cause it's like a betrayal.
-I've gotta get going, Les.
I think we're gonna have to cut
this interview, cause we're gonna go...
Take your magazines, people.
Come on, lets go.
The Prawn doesn't really understand
the concept of ownership of property.
So, we have to come there and say:
listen, this is our land.
Please, will you go?
It's difficult to put
the vest on by yourself.
Thomas, can you help me?
-All right, boss.
They told me I was gonna
get the vest inside the Casper.
Thomas, just look on the side
if there's a vest there?
I'm just concerned about my family.
-Don't worry about the vest, it'll be fine.
Rights groups have demanded
that mercenaries should comply
with all UIO regulations
in District 9.
We're coming to you
from the entrance of District 9
as today, Multi National United
sets out to relocate
approximately 1.8 million
alien residents from their homes.
keeping a watchful eye,
as many suspect
abuses might occur.
private security forces
being deployed into District 9.
Backed up by
significant air support.
We'll go shack to shack
and get them to sign the form.
First one E.X. triple 7.
The operation is about to begin.
Just stay focused.
Are you ready, Thomas?
-Yeah. -Okay.
Is that a signal?
Okay, fellows.
You stay behind us.
Good luck, boy.
Stay low! Where is he going?
What is it?
It's clear that security is very high.
This is only the beginning
This is MNU agents.
Open the door please! -Open up!
Hello! Hello, hello...
This is Wikus Van De Merwe
from MNU.
We are here to serve you
an eviction notice.
You just put your scrawl there.
-F*** off!
All right! Thomas, hold it!
We've got his scrawl there.
Because as he hit it,
it counts as a scrawl.
First time we come in,
there will always be a little bit
of tension happening
between us and them.
Hey, you can't eat that, man!
The prawn likes to eat the rubber.
To him it's like a marshmallow.
No, no! Guard!
Don't confront him like that!
Did you see that?
Right in the roost. Stay calm!
This is gonna be a problem cause
now all prawns are coming out,
they wanna see what's going on.
Stop it! Stop it!
Bring my kit.
See, everybody is gathering now.
Don't shoot or you're gonna
turn it into a warzone!
What is that? Is that a tear gas?
-No, it's cat food.
It is cat food.
I just distract them.
No it's not my house.
I don't live here.
Well, that's a pity because,
you know, this...
This is a nice cat food, you know.
But of course, it's not your house.
So, we'll just have to go and give it
to someone else. -Yes! It's my house!
We need you to sign here.
Now you can take that...
All right. Stop it!
The creatures became incredibly
obsessed with cat food.
Something about it, like catnip
for cats. Only a lot more intense.
Hello? MNU. We are here
What is eviction?
What we have stranded
on Earth in this colony,
is basically the workers that are
unable to think for themselves.
They will take commands,
they have no initiative.
They've lost all the
apt of leadership
through whatever cause.
We presume illness.
Nigerian compound area.
Where there's a slum, there's crime.
And District 9 was no exception.
The nigerians had various scams going.
One of them was the cat food scam.
Where they sold cat food to
the aliens for exorbitant prices.
You put the money here first.
You don't get anything until you pay.
What are you trying to do?
I'll chop your balls off.
Not to mention
interspecies prostitution,
and they also dealt
in alien weaponry.
You have a car hijacking,
there's a chop shop there,
you can see that,
that's somebody's car in there.
The nigerians in District 9 are
headed by a man called Obesandjo.
He's a very powerful
underground figure in Johannesburg.
You don't want to play
with these boys.
They will cut you into pieces.
That's the boss there.
OK, no problem.
Don't look at him!
All right, next. 766, all right.
MNU agents.
Open the door please!
Whoa! Jesus! What is it?
Check the other side!
Control, this is Wikus Van De Merwe.
I need a population control team
at JV 766 immediately, please.
Check the other side, Thomas!
There is 40 to 50 eggs in here.
Is this normal?
-This is an amazing find.
l can just show you
a little bit how it works.
Basically, a cow is hung from
the ceiling, you can see here.
Very little of it left, of course,
because all these pipes
supply the nutrition
You can do one, I can show you,
want to see? -No, I'm fine.
There we go. Okay,
no more nutrition to the guy.
Then finally we take air back.
The little guy is gone
You pop him out, there we go.
Pop him out here.
You can take that. You wanna keep it
as a souvenir of your first abortion.
You can feel like you did
one of these here. -Thanks, boss.
Okay, here it comes, guys.
This is the snake.
If we were going to abort
each egg one at the time,
it'd take a very long time.
So, this makes a lot of sense.
You hear that? That's a popping
sound that you're hearing.
It's almost like a popcorn.
What the egg does, it pops up.
The little guy, what's left of him,
pops out there.
So that's the sound that
you're hearing with the popping.
You don't need that, man.
Only sissies wear that.
Been drinking a little bit here, eh?
What are you doing with this
television set, sir? What's this?
Hey, smile for the cameras here.
That's a first day find.
-That's a big find.
You see this? Trent, look at this!
There's weapons all over here.
CK 5, 7572...
Some of the guns are small
but if it shoot you,
it make a big mess.
MNU is trying to move the aliens
for humanitarian reasons.
But the real focus,
just as it has been
right from the beginning,
is weapons.
MNU is the second largest
weapons manufacturer in the world.
We assumed that we'd be able
to pick up the alien laser gun
and just be able to shoot,
but it didn't work like that.
Because, as we discovered,
their technology is actually
engineered in a biological manner
to interact exclusively with their DNA.
It just doesn't work with humans.
And it's as simple as that.
This is basically a guy,
and there's 3 humans here.
