Humanity: Twilight Lincoln
Fiction often presents us with situations in which the
existence of humanity is justified to an alien invasion via an appeal to our
inherent nobility, our continued striving towards betterment, our ability to
reach beyond ourselves to work together for grand ideals.
Hulu's current trailer section may very well undermine that
notion entirely.
For your consideration:
Breaking Dawn Part 2:
A film about how Bella Swanson, who, having changed into a vampire,
defends her daughter against the Volturi council through a coalition of other
vampire clans, and some werewolves.
If an invading alien race were presented with both of these
trailers, as a summary of what humanity can accomplish, then I'm pretty sure
the aliens would be justified in ending our species.
And that's before we go into this Gangnam Style horseshit.
One step forward.
5,000 steps back.

Gangnam Style.. That's nearly as bad as this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HL_WvOly7mY
First, I hate you for linking that. We don't acknowledge the existence of that...that...that thing.
Second, it may be nearly as bad, but it can never be as bad.
