short and to the point . . . plus i'm sick and tired of hearing about the freefest.
for the last few years or so, the movie industry has assulted us with family friendly kids films. i wonder why that is? for the past few years what else has been going on in this country? widespread acceptance of gay people / them getting married and having children. the government is in control of the movie industry, forcing them to put out as many "normal" family friendly films as possible that strengthen the bonds of one man/one woman/2.5 kids gloriousness. just like when the government controlled the movie industry of the fifties, forcing them to put out propaganda that told people if you smoke pot you will rape and kill people.
believe it.

There's UFO stories every week, believe me, I look. They just don't matter until it's a major city, these "lights"/"orbs" have been showing up for at least 2 decades and these dark "triangular" shaped ones have also been showing up more and more in the past 15 to 20 years. I think it's interesting how the UFOs have gone from disc shaped to triangular shaped since the birth of UFO sightings/reportings. There was an alleged day light crash of a giant triangular ship out in California, apparently crashed into the side of a mountain sometime around dusk.
People freak out, just wait until they start showing up daily over major cities.
I need more tin foil…

i think those lights are all part of a viral marketing campaign for that new "Skyline" movie (aka the Independence Day rip-off)

I Honestly wouldn't be surprised. If it is, then it's genius. If not, then it's probably balloons.
Skyeline = rip off of ID4 = rip off of War of The Worlds
With alien movies, they're either friendly and cute [ET, Close Encounters] or they're evil Earth destroying bastards [every other god damn alien movie ever]
It's like romcoms.

DFA is on to something here. I'd liek to see an alien movie where they either don't even contact humans at all and we both live in total isolation from each other, or one where they show up and are completely ambivalent to us, giving us the silent treatment for the whole film. Genius!

I can't think of literature or movies where this example is present, but the most likely scenario would seem to be a highly advanced race that doesn't interfere with us until we reached a certain social and technological level.
The universe is infinite, there is bound to be civilizations that are vastly beyond us.

Runwhiteyrun06, are you familiar with the (Frank) Drake theory?
These definitely have nothing whatsoever to do with some marketing campaign. They've been all over the place for many, many decades. The media has just gotten much more friendly about actually reporting them without turning it into some opinionated point and laugh piece. Obviously, some are just mistaken objects such as balloons and such but a lot are something much, much different. A lot are probably just very highly secret 'black projects' which are more often thought to be so for the triangular types. Saw one of those in Delaware a couple years ago. And then there are those which are much, much more questionable that sometimes even have other very weird experiences involved with them. Not assuming anything on those including so much of the bs the media and powers that be try to insist are nothing but weather balloons. Total bs on that line of crap! The research is very extensive with some being quite good while some is just plane full of crap. Definitely makes for some very fun and interesting reading.

I know about the Drake equation, but I did not know until now that it only factored the Milky Way Galaxy.

The government is starting to put up all kinds of Big Brother drones so I suspect we'll hear about even more, although I think most of them tend to be fairly high altitude which won't really be noticed other than maybe at the odd times.

Then there are the parallel and inter-dimensional theories. Also, the hollow or inner Earth theories. And if you really want to go all out and combined all sorts of history and sciences, look into the theory about the Nazis and flying saucers in Antartica.

At any angle any lights could do this, i get it. Weird though anyway!
