1000 Things I Learned...
The special FX was good in this movie, and probably was the only thing that kept me awake. Lol, anyways, even crappy movies like these I always learn something from them, so...
1. Alien probes armed with advanced technology won't bother to look behind window blinds or curtains.
2. If the window blinds are gone, hiding behind tabletop counters are just as effective. They won't bother doing a deeper search.
3. If you know alien blue lights can suck your attention in and mind control you, looking at it through a telescope is okay.
4. If aliens invade the planet, the first thing to do is to get to a boat and pray they can't get to you in water.
5. Like #4, if you saw your best friend and a couple others die the first time because you all tried getting to the boat, try it again the second time.
6. Take pictures of aliens invading the city with the same camera you used to take pictures of your best friend cheating with his assistant.
