The director of ‘ET The Extra-Terrestrial’ and ‘Encounters in the Third Kind’ knows things…
He ufo theme is going through a moment of popularity as we have rarely seen before in the 21st century, and what better person to give his theory about increased sightings that the director of the science fiction films ‘Encounters in the third kind’ and ‘ET The Extra-Terrestrial’, Steven Spielberg.
Spielberg, one step away from the directors with the most Oscars for ‘The Fabelmans’, went through the Stephen Colbert and one of the hottest topics in the US today, UFOs and “spy” balloons, was one of the topics of conversation. And the 76-year-old filmmaker got wet saying that “I believe that we are not alone in the universe“, and even providing a theory that would make a great science fiction film directed, of course, by himself.
“I have never seen a UFO. I wish I had! I’ve never seen anything I can’t explain. But I believe in certain people who have seen things they cannot explain. I think what’s been emerging recently is fascinating, absolutely fascinating. And I think the secrecy that surrounds all these sightings and the lack of transparency… I think there’s something going on that has an extraordinary reason for being.”
Therefore, Spielberg is a believer. Between Mulder and Scully, it is clear that the director bets on the first and his ‘I want to believe‘. He makes it even clearer below:
“I don’t think we’re alone in the universe. I think it’s mathematically impossible that we’re the only intelligent species in the cosmos. At the same time, it also seems impossible for someone to visit us from 400 million light-years away, except in the movies, Unless, of course, they figure out some way to get here through wormholes, for example.”
But, and here it comes the theory that would make Enrique de Vicente himself salivate…What if UFOs do not belong to alien creatures, but to humans visiting us from thousands of years in the future?
“I feel very optimistic about these things that we see in the skies, that the Army, Navy and Air Force are recording on their cameras, but what if they are not from an advanced civilization 300 million light years from here? What if we are, 500,000 years in the future, going back to document the second half of the 20th century and the 21st century because we are anthropologists, and they know something that we still don’t fully know has happened, and they are trying to figure it out. trace the last hundred years of our history.”
Spielberg hasn’t traveled science fiction for a long timethe genre that has given him so much joy in the past, from ‘Ready Player One’ to ‘Encounters in the third phase’, through ‘ET The Extraterrestrial’, ‘Jurassic Park’, ‘Artificial Intelligence’, ‘Minority Report’ and ‘The War of the Worlds’, but it is seen that he has not lost his form, imagination or desire. Spielberg, please, return to the genre.
