Dear Alien High Council President,

I am a lowly pilot that was deployed to "Earth" via the lightning to get rid of the humans.
However, I found that my deadliest ray guns failed on cotton clothing, but surprisingly melted steel and humans with high accuracy. Despite being bullet-resistant, I think our tentacles should be made axe-proof. Just a few more points, sir.

Also, we seem to have some difficulties with our human suction device, as a few people apparently figured out a way to defeat one, by simply "holding on" to each other. I propose we execute humans on mass instead of individually killing them with our mightiest "anal probing tentacles."
Also, I request we re-calibrate our targeting mechanisms as one human easily seemed to dodge every single death ray at him.
Perhaps we should also make our 120 feet tripod walkers outpace a 2-legged 6-foot tall human. We seem to have great difficulty catching people.

From captured earthlings, weve found these creatures have a procedure called "Vaccination". It seems they use this "Vaccination, before sending earthlings to war. I highly recommend we assimilate these procedures before we are sent to war, again.

I also recommend, we stop the practice of our sickened soldiers coughing on every other soldier, because apparently we all got sick at the SAME EXACT time and shut down, simultaneously.

I hope this letter reaches you, High Council President.

P.S. - Please, re-configure our shields so that it suddenly doesn't turn off when the pilot gets ill.

Yours dearly,
Alien # 135-SZ35.

LOL this one made me laugh, you bring up some good points, some of which can be explained, mostly though they fall under a common category.

Ignorance AND Arrogance, the things you pointed out are means to an end, and that end is a message(about ignorance and arrogance and thier consequences etc etc)

Cute way of recycling everyone else's complaints. Shame only one of them doesn't have a logical reason of explanation and that one made me angry as well.


THE BRIDE: It was not my intention to do this in front of you. For that I'm sorry. But you can take my word for it, your mother had it coming. When you grow up, if you still feel raw about it, I'll be waiting.

And with that apology, statement, and invitation, The Bride walks out the kitchen side door, leaving the little girl to her mourning.

Yeah I know my screen name sucks.

Its exactly as Emperor Omega said. Its all because they didn't think they had to bother. Do you expect to die when you eat meat or step on insects?

As for the not hitting one guy, if you actually watch the movie rather then pretend that your far more superior than Spielberg you'll notice that every shot with the heat ray hits someone dead on. Ray is not looked at as the main character of a movie by the aliens, he's one of the lucky ones that escape a random attack on humans. The aliens see him as they see everyone else, so whos to say all guns aimed at Ray then the guy next to him then then that mechanic. Do you look at several ants say thats the one that is the protagonist of a movie and step on it? Of course not. This movie is about a family that survived the entire attack, just like many others did, not the story of a guy who died in the first appearance of a tripod.

I'm sure you didn't complain when all the characters introduced in Saving Private Ryan weren't killed on D-day, I mean how could the Nazis miss them? Oh wait because there were other people too


Oh snap!! This thread just got served

But that was so cheap to have [SPOILER] Ray's son live [/SPOILER] I mean it was one lone person against three tripods that take out entire crowds without a problem. and he obviously wasn't behind the army lines so did he just run out in front of all the soldiers far enough from the blast? I don't think so. It was cheap of them.

Nice.

But, seriously, aren't there plotholes in all movies? Some you just can't fix. And they are for the good of the movie.

Just noticed this, quite major flaw in your words, how do you know they all shut down simultaneously? we only see 1 shut down, they probably all shut down in a similar space of time, but simultaneously? i very VERY much doubt that.
