The tools of conquest does not necessarily come with bombs or explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, and prejudices to be only found in the minds of men.
For the record, prejudices can kill, suspicions can destroy, and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout of it’s own for the children and the children, yet, unborn. And the pity of It is those things can not be confined to the Twilight Zone.
-Rod Sterling, “The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street”
An Appetizing Review:
“Arrival”, the new movie starring Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner.
Based on the short story “The Story of Your Life” by Tim Chaing, Arrival is a metaphysical aliens to Earth story that tells the story of a linguist who is recruited to help the government decipher an their language.
We asked the question: What if humans had a simultaneous consciousness and could discern the future? If we know the future and there is no free will how does one exist with the knowledge of knowing what life indefinitely has in store for you?
Live in the now and be an alien in your own skin and look at the world and life with curiosity and the propensity to learn.
Scene Again: The Story of Your Life by Ted Chaing
The Main Course Movie Dish:
It Came From Outer Space (1953) is a movie about what? Aliens who have come to earth for some reason or another and only one person from the town nearby their landing spot knows of their arrival.
Twilight Delight:
The Monster Are Due on Maple Street is a quite enjoyable episode of the Twilight Zone about a different arrival of aliens from outer space. These aliens are clever and use humans to ultimately destroy themselves.
