->''"Should we have our space faring visitors from beyond the stars come in peace and open a dialog with humankind? The prospects of peaceful coexistence with alien life is a near endless well of potential drama and an opportunity to explore deep themes about the nature of life and existence. Which is why it's boring! Instead, let's just have our outer space visitors shoot at humanity with ray guns. That's much more exciting and won't make our audience uncomfortable with unpleasant existential questions."''

->''Destination Moon'' created the great SF boom of the 1950s. It offered a single, wild leap of imagination that said the stars could be humanity’s for the taking. But despite the deluge of SF films that subsequently came almost none of them — excepting maybe ''Film/ForbiddenPlanet'' (1956) — accepted the implicit challenge. Instead humanity’s attitude toward the stars contrarily became one that the sky was in imminent danger of falling on our heads, be it filled with alien invaders or atomic monsters.

->I make instant oatmeal and we turn on the TV. All the channels show the same images: [[VichyEarth tickheads at the new White House, at the U.N., everywhere]]. All the messages are the same: the war is over, and they’re sorry for the [[WhyDidYouMakeMeHitYou damage we did to ourselves]]. The tickheads--they call themselves [[TheUnpronouncable something full of clicking noises]]--are sorry for the violence with which humanity responded to their visit, and sorry that they failed to anticipate the reaction. They promise to work with the Galactic Whole to repair the damage, and they’re sorry for the delays.
->“I’m sorry too,” I say, trying to make a joke, but Trey doesn’t laugh.
