According to David Meng of Weta Workshop, the vast majority of the aliens are worker-class "drones", explaining why they were so lost and ineffectual. Christopher Johnson is one notable exception to this rule. None of this non-human social structure made it into the film; perhaps director Neill Blomkamp is saving it for a future film? Uncomfirmed by director Neill Blomkamp: In his previous film "Alive in Joburg " which inspired District 9, the aliens referred to themselves as Poleepkwa. Interested parties have contacted the director on whether or not this term can be officially applied. There's a possibility that because of the uniquely hominid shape of their bodies and comprehension of English that their society is derived from humans that have been captured and metamorphosed into prawns

abstract	According to David Meng of Weta Workshop, the vast majority of the aliens are worker-class "drones", explaining why they were so lost and ineffectual.

Uncomfirmed by director Neill Blomkamp: In his previous film "Alive in Joburg " which inspired District 9, the aliens referred to themselves as Poleepkwa. Interested parties have contacted the director on whether or not this term can be officially applied. There's a possibility that because of the uniquely hominid shape of their bodies and comprehension of English that their society is derived from humans that have been captured and metamorphosed into prawns by the same liquid which is the basis of the main character's transformation. The prawns then would actually be a representation of humans taken out of society and allowed to experimentally create a society and language out of scratch from perhaps 1950's era abduction stories and UFO interest having been people that have actually disappeared to become the experimental culture-less prawn population, which they clearly do not do (Which could also be seen as a reference to the American goverment's actions on indigenous Americans in that they were placed into concentration camps and forced to speak in English and live as they were told, which would be the same as simply losing an entire society's thousand or more years of social and cultural evolution, the same as the nazis would have done to the jews if killing them was not successful and if the nazis were successful in the first place.). This and the fact that the transformation that the liquid creates onto the main character is a very complex biological one which would be literally impossible as science currently understands life and so might hint that the liquid is created for the sole purpose of it, with a double purpose of being a fuel.
