[[WMG: Professor Membrane is an alien who doesn't believe in aliens.]]
Professor Membrane is an extraterrestrial, but he either doesn't think other "True" aliens exist beyond his species, or is just in denial of his true nature. (Also, given the usual level of absurdity the show operates on, Professor Membrane probably thinks of himself as a "Naturalized Earth Citizen" instead of an alien-and doesn't Dib know that, even if someone's an extraterrestrial, it's rude to just call them an alien? He raised his son better than that!)

The movie will rectify a similar situation by taking on a darker tone and showing what a monstrous, abominable alien Zim can be.

This is done through hormonal programming in their PAKs. ZIM is especially short since the brains don't want a defective Irken having too much power or heaven forbid becoming The Tallest. This is their only real way to control him.

* Highly unlikely. Professor Membrane never seems to comprehend the existence of aliens, [[spoiler:even when flat out locked away in an alien prison cell in ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZimEnterTheFlorpus'',]] to the point of referring to Zim as Dib's, "little green friend". Granted, he ''does'' voluntarily let Dib pursue his interests as revealed by "Mopiness of Doom", but it's not as though Membrane is aware of the existence of aliens, even with proof to back it up. He never even attempts to stop Tak in "Tak: The Hideous New Girl" despite Zim and Dib talking about her right in front of Membrane. It's more likely that Dib and Gaz were unfazed by Tak's hypnotic flashes due to Jhonen having plans to reveal Dib and Gaz as being clones of Professor Membrane as opposed to naturally-born humans.
