The UFO Movie THEY Don’t Want You To See

The UFO Movie THEY Don’t Want You To See

In the course of the preceding twelve months, the United States of America has been clearly besotted with UFO Mythos. Largely because attention seeking politicians who believe “I know a guy who says he has stuff that’ll blow your mind,” can substitute any form of moderative factual evidence and end with “You cannot prove it did not happen” as their awesome bombshell. So it is that the recent documentary the UFO Movie THEY Don’t Want You To See could have wished for better release timing.

Most of the highly esteemed readers of the Skeptical Inquirer would most likely have heard or read some of the works authored by writer-producer-director-on-screen host Brian Dunning. Dunning is the founder and CEO of Skeptoid Media, an entity also widely known for its nonsensical podcast.

In light of that connection, I have a feeling that it will be no much of a surprise if I state that the ‘THEY’ in the movie is title is not cowards chilling in their basements waiting to come out and particularly evil scientists or any other government officials who are trying to hide the truth from the rest of us.”

The UFO Movie, despite the misleading title which suggests humor, doesn’t hold back in showing that it is extremely skeptical content. Dunning’s voiceover, only a minute and a half into the film, lambasts the recent UFO interest in the media referring to it as “the newest fad for television’s fake science and fake history channels.” If there are those who still believe ‘craze’ is a mild term and may be wishing for a little more dramatics, Dunning cushion’s their enthusiasm, “But just how many people think that way, who is influenced by the real sciences?”

Of course, there is no one more skilled than the ardent believer of UFOs that most terms associated with the real sciences gets ‘lubricated’ in a manner that it becomes extremely vague. Then the issue is, who are we trying to enlighten with The UFO Movie? If you are a die-hard believer, there is always that one loose end, or one the questions “what about”, “yeah but”. If anything, the film may buttress the resolve of these believers, emboldening them to chalk off Dunning as another of those who have been hoodwinked or another of those who form part of The Conspiracy.

The film appeals to those who are scientifically skeptical; however, it is the audience that does not require any convincing. Considering this, we must not claim that the film is a waste of time for the mass audience. The UFO Movie is rich in facts, some of them rather detailed and all new to people with good knowledge of people with opposing views to the subject.

Our best expectations, if any, should be for those listeners who see Congressional speeches and PR activity and wish to fact-check things. For them, the term not only provides answers but also explains where to look for solutions. Since deep UFO claims are made, Dunning first deals with the good and bad nature of evidence, weight of odds, probability of hypotheses not being true with some special relativity on the side.

It is a fair introduction to critical thinking without, if I may say so, using that horrendous annoying phrase. While the preceding may be construed as a dull recipe, Dunning manages to do it without boredom by alternating segments with interviews of the experts who are fast-paced. The experts themselves are all unusual and unlike the stereotype of a lab coated, not-very-creative character.

The movie shows a certain fascination for the most well known, or most easily credible claims of alien visitation that probably existed in our reality. (In the interests of brevity, I will omit inserting the word ‘alleged’ before all subsequent claims). Such is the case of American servicemen who were reportedly able to locate and inspect a crashed alien spacecraft in England’s Rendelsham Forest.

That of sixty-two Zimbabwean schoolchildren who saw a flying saucer descend on their schoolyard. Or the ‘UFO’ that turned off intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM) in Malmstrom, Montana. In this connection, three films Gimbal, Gofast, and Nimitz/Tic Tac, recorded by the US Navy should be mentioned. A mention should also be made of a fascinating conversation that Josh Carter had about the sighting famously mentioned by his grandfather, former US President Jimmy Carter.

It will not come as a shock to the readers of this magazine that some professional debunkers have only a very cliché view of so called debunking which sometimes can even be dismissed, and The UFO Movie is aӔWhat is X?ӔIt leads with a proper debunking of what Neil rambles about. Unfortunately, we end the journey without any extraterrestrial guests. But the method does provide us with a tutorial on how to unmask the top scientists in the world and gives bonus perspectives that are worth the trouble all over again.

Perhaps it wouldn’t be accurate to say that The UFO Movie fills all the enjoyment of UFOs (or UAP if you’re pedantic about it). As to the chances of the intelligent lifeform existing no more than a satellite Insane Maths will make him out of at an enthusiastic UFOlogist. The catch is that the physical world has an answer for that A spring that does bend, this is how far away from here you wish to go.

Nasty science fiction mountain movement But, light – that is electromagnetic waves of frequency, anywhere on the planet moves So perhaps this is about a lightly moving mountain, not a deeply cursed one. All this rolls in seeing a flipping signal at either side of anything but simple odds. Yes, Dunning mentions the WOW Signal and with a very good reason it was a sweet spot for radio signal as seventy-two seconds it has been received in 1977, and so far has not succumbed to a host of ‘Russ’ who has not been able to get out of there.

However, a tough viewer and critic as The UFO Movie is bound to elicit some whines. To begin with, why that camera setup? Why not cut away from this or that shot a few frames earlier? Why feature Dunning, who is a decent presenter, but not an actor? These criticisms can be easily addressed.

First and foremost, they contribute to the film’s area of placing it strategically in the market, That’s right. This is no Hollywood blockbuster, save for composer Lee Sanders’s rhapsodic score. It’s genuine. Sadly, one can say the same about Tomas and Ufology as a whole and documentaries.
