Yahoo! News - Spielberg Says Aliens Likely Our Friends
LOS ANGELES - When the aliens finally arrive, Steven Spielberg expects them to be galactic good Samaritans like E.T. rather than the malevolent marauders of "War of the Worlds."
"I have to certainly believe what my heart tells me. That the first time there is a meeting of the minds between extraterrestrials and human beings, it's going to be friendly," Spielberg told The Associated Press in an interview looking ahead to his "War of the Worlds" saga, starring Tom Cruise.
...
So why does Hollywood tend toward first-contact stories of war and mayhem?
...it's more a reflection on human nature than extra-terrestrial nature.
"We tend to project our own human aggression into outer space," Spielberg said. "It doesn't necessarily mean there is aggression out there."
Dude's gotta lay off the movies. I feel a review of E.T. coming on.
