Comments:"The MP who scuttled across the floor like a cockroach is Andrew Mitchell MP. He had to resign as Chief Whip because he referred to some police offers as plebs. He had a huge legal bill after losing a libel court case on this issue. Then he joined Bill Gates's vaccines promotion organisation and has frequently been pictured with him at various conferences. Presumably he has now been able to pay his legal bills." "Mitchell doing Gates work in The Congo now - "educating" the children" "My partner had her second booster and it was so badly organised she caught the coof from the surgery and I promptly caught it. I didn't have a second booster and I'm now glad I didn't. What the heck did they inject us with? I didn't think they'd ever play fast and loose with public health in this way as the future downsides are so grave. How can they be ever trusted again? I feel totally played."

A sci-fi drama with the screenplay by David Scarpa is based on the 1940 science fiction short story "Farewell to the Master" by Harry Bates & the 1951 screenplay adaptation by Edmund H. North.Directed by Scott Derrickson & starring Keanu Reeves as Klaatu, this version replaces the Cold War theme of nuclear warfare with the contemporary issue of humankind's environmental damage to the planet. It follows Klaatu, an alien sent to try to change human behavior or eradicate humans from Earth. In 1928, a solitary mountaineer exploring the Karakoram mountains in India encounters a glowing sphere. He loses consciousness & when he wakes, the sphere has gone & there is a scar on his hand where a sample of his DNA has been taken. In the present day, a rapidly moving object is detected beyond Jupiter's orbit & forecast to impact Manhattan. It is moving at 30,000 kilometers per second, fast enough that its impact would destroy all life on Earth. The United States government hastily assembles a group of scientists, including Helen Benson & her friend Michael Granier, to develop a survival plan. The scientists travel to New York City to await for the object's collision with Earth. As it nears the planet, the object slows down just before impact. Revealed to be a large spherical spaceship, it lands gently in Central Park & is quickly surrounded by NYPD & heavily armed US military forces. An alien emerges & Helen moves forward to greet it; but amidst the confusion, the alien is shot. A gigantic humanoid robot appears & temporarily disables everything in the vicinity by emitting a high-pitched noise before the wounded alien voices the command "Klaatu barada nikto" to shut down the robot's defensive response. The alien's exterior is found to be a bioengineered space suit, composed of placenta-like material covering a human-like being. After the bullet is extracted during surgery, the being quickly ages into Klaatu, who looks like the mountaineer from 1928. Klaatu informs Secretary of Defense Regina Jackson that he is a representative of a group of civilizations, sent to talk to the leaders of Earth about saving the planet. When Jackson instead sends him to be interrogated, Klaatu escapes & reconnects with Helen & her stepson, Jacob, telling them that he must finish his mission to "save the Earth". The presence of the sphere & other smaller spheres that begin to appear all over the world cause widespread panic. The military launches a drone attack on the Central Park sphere, but is thwarted by the robot. The military takes a weapons-free approach, cautiously enclosing the robot, soon nicknamed "GORT" (for Genetically Organized Robotic Technology) & transporting it to the Mount Weather underground facility in Virginia. Klaatu meets with another alien, Mr. Wu, who has lived on Earth for 70 years. Wu tells Klaatu that he has found the human race to be destructive, stubborn & unwilling to change, which matches Klaatu's experiences. Klaatu orders the smaller spheres to collect specimens of animal species, to preserve them for later reintroduction to the Earth. He clarifies for Helen that he means to save the Earth from destruction by humankind. When a New Jersey State Trooper attempts to take them into custody, Klaatu kills him & then promptly revives the officer, telling Helen & Jacob that he did this to simply disarm an obstacle to his mission. Hoping to persuade Klaatu to change his mind about humanity, Helen takes him to the home of Professor Barnhardt, a Nobel Prize winner. They discuss how Klaatu's race went through drastic, collaborative evolution to prevent the demise of their planet. Barnhardt pleads that Earth is at the same precipice & humanity should be given a chance to understand that it too must change. While the adults are talking, Jacob calls the authorities to come & arrest Klaatu. While the military is examining GORT, the robot transforms into a swarm of winged insect-like nano-machines that self-replicate as they consume every man-made object in their path. The swarm soon devours the entire facility, emerging above ground to continue feeding. The military captures Helen while Klaatu & Jacob escape on foot. As they travel, Klaatu learns more about humanity through Jacob. When Jacob contacts Helen & arranges to meet at his father's grave, the Secretary sends her to try to change Klaatu's mind. At the grave, Jacob is heartbroken that Klaatu cannot resurrect his long-dead father. As Helen & Jacob have a tear-filled reunion, Klaatu's cumulative observations of humans convince him to stop the swarm. Granier drives them to the Central Park sphere, but the swarm has reached massive proportions. Klaatu trudges through the swarm to the sphere, touching it moments before his own body is consumed. The sphere deactivates the swarm, saving humanity, but at the expense of electrical activity on Earth, per Klaatu's warning that there will be "a price to the [human] way of life." The giant sphere leaves the Earth.
