Thinking Outside the "Plot"!
________________________________

~ A Question for the Members: Several dozen of the citizens in Sand Rock, AZ experienced the strange events which took place during the visit of the benevolent aliens in this movie — and at the end they all had ample evidence that these visitors from the stars meant them no harm! Very Happy

So, what happened after the aliens departed peacefully in full view of the pose' which came to destroy them?

~ My Theory: Two possible scenarios occurred after the aliens returned to space.

(1) The townspeople would be afraid no one would believe their story and would refuse to share it with the outside world, or —

(2) Government authorities from The Blue Book Project would swoop in and question the whole town until they were all cross-eyed from talking about the incident!

Frankly, possibility #2 has been done to death, so I favor Possibility #2. It gives us a story in which a government team like the ones in The X-Files wander around Sand Rock and attempt to question people who know quite a lot . . . but reveal very little! Cool

(I just tossed this out to encourage a discussion. I hope we get one.)
