The Day The Earth Stood Still

Posted: March 28, 2016 in Uncategorized

I liked this movie, though it was made in 1951 with a seemingly low budget. The story didn’t really go anywhere though. There went much of a good story to begin with.

Here’s a summary:

An alien visits Earth from another planet to warn them that if they don’t change their ways, it will cause conflict between their planets and his planet will surely win. He gives multiple demonstrations of how much more advanced their technologies and medicines are, gives the warning to everyone on tv, then he leaves. The end.

I know, not much of a story. But I think it would make a good sequel or remake.

Oh hold on… What if they forgot the warning and continued developing like they were, and then the movie Independence Day happened? The sequel to Independence day is coming out soon and it’s set in present time.

Hmm maybe not as random as I thought. A movie trilogy 65 years in the making. Not bad.
