Let's talk about UFOs for a minute.
[0:00:00 - 0:00:03] ▶
What do you make of what's going on right now?
[0:00:03 - 0:00:06] ▶
There's something out there.
[0:00:09 - 0:00:11] ▶
So you're a believer?
[0:00:11 - 0:00:12] ▶
I don't know if I'm a believer in the sense that I'm kind of the person that would think
[0:00:12 - 0:00:17] ▶
I got to see something like that to believe it.
[0:00:17 - 0:00:20] ▶
I can make up stuff.
[0:00:20 - 0:00:21] ▶
And make movies about things that I've never seen or experienced.
[0:00:22 - 0:00:24] ▶
But in terms of really believing something, I think I'd have to have my own close encounter.
[0:00:25 - 0:00:29] ▶
So I've never seen a UFO.
[0:00:30 - 0:00:32] ▶
Nothing that's unexplained.
[0:00:33 - 0:00:34] ▶
I've never seen anything that I couldn't explain.
[0:00:34 - 0:00:37] ▶
But I believe certain people who have seen things that they can't explain that is unexplainable.
[0:00:37 - 0:00:43] ▶
I think what has been coming out recently is fascinating, just absolutely fascinating.
[0:00:43 - 0:00:50] ▶
And I think the secrecy that is shrouding all of these sightings
[0:00:50 - 0:00:56] ▶
and the lack of transparency until Freedom of Information Act compels certain materials to be released publicly.
[0:00:56 - 0:01:03] ▶
I think that there is something going on that simply needs extraordinary due diligence.
[0:01:03 - 0:01:10] ▶
I mean, I would like to hear more about it.
[0:01:10 - 0:01:12] ▶
I don't know what they are, my imagination, and my love for, I don't believe we're alone in the universe.
[0:01:12 - 0:01:21] ▶
I think it's mathematically impossible that we are the only intelligent species in the cosmos.
[0:01:21 - 0:01:28] ▶
I think that's totally impossible.
[0:01:28 - 0:01:30] ▶
At the same time, it almost seems impossible that anybody would visit us from 400 million light years from here, except in the movies,
[0:01:30 - 0:01:38] ▶
unless it figures out some way of sort of basically jumping the shark, so to speak,
[0:01:38 - 0:01:45] ▶
and getting here through wormholes.
[0:01:45 - 0:01:48] ▶
So I'm not an astrophysicist.
[0:01:48 - 0:01:51] ▶
I really can't speak the language of the people that do it so well out at JPL.
[0:01:51 - 0:01:56] ▶
But I just know as a person that makes movies and uses his imagination,
[0:01:56 - 0:02:01] ▶
and also as a person that is insatiably curious about UFOs or UAPs,
[0:02:01 - 0:02:08] ▶
that there's something going on that were really not being made, that's not being disclosed to us.
[0:02:08 - 0:02:15] ▶
Well, Senators who have been briefed on this, and I don't mean just these latest balloon-ish incidents.
[0:02:15 - 0:02:20] ▶
Senators who have been briefed on this have said, there are things the American people deserve to know,
[0:02:20 - 0:02:25] ▶
and the quote I love is, and they're ready to learn.
[0:02:25 - 0:02:29] ▶
And that says to me that there's something sort of paradigm shattering about this news that were not being told.
[0:02:29 - 0:02:38] ▶
You know the most optimistic thing, I feel about these things that we're seeing in the skies,
[0:02:38 - 0:02:43] ▶
or the Army and Navy and Air Force are recording on their gun cameras,
[0:02:43 - 0:02:48] ▶
is that what if they're not from an advanced civilization, 300 million light years from here?
[0:02:48 - 0:02:54] ▶
But what if it's us 500,000 years into the future that is coming back to document
[0:02:54 - 0:03:02] ▶
the second half of the 20th century and into the first 20th century because they're anthropologists,
[0:03:02 - 0:03:07] ▶
and they know something that we don't quite know yet that has occurred,
[0:03:07 - 0:03:11] ▶
and they're trying to track the last 100 years of our history.
[0:03:11 - 0:03:19] ▶
Well, the hopeful part about that to me is that we survive.
[0:03:19 - 0:03:23] ▶
Yes, that we survive, or a certain percentage of us survive,
[0:03:23 - 0:03:28] ▶
that allows these other generations to flourish.
[0:03:28 - 0:03:31] ▶
Okay, if there are aliens, is your bet on ET or War the World?
[0:03:31 - 0:03:37] ▶
ET. Your bet is on ET.
[0:03:37 - 0:03:39] ▶
Oh, yeah, yeah. War the World is just sort of a reflection of 9-11.
[0:03:39 - 0:03:42] ▶
It was my way of making a story about the impact that 9-11 had on all of us.
[0:03:42 - 0:03:47] ▶
I believe that if any extraterrestrial civilization has journeyed all the way here,
[0:03:47 - 0:03:55] ▶
it's because of curiosity and science, and it's not about aggression.
[0:03:55 - 0:04:00] ▶
Because if they can get here, they don't need our resources,
[0:04:00 - 0:04:03] ▶
they must have enormous resources already.
[0:04:03 - 0:04:05] ▶
Yeah, exactly. And the fact they've been this patient with us
[0:04:05 - 0:04:08] ▶
and haven't turned the earth into a burned-out cinder is extraordinary.
[0:04:08 - 0:04:15] ▶
If there is anything happening, you have to applaud them for the patience.
[0:04:15 - 0:04:20] ▶
