I haven't written a blog for quite some time as I've been deep in post production of WAR OF THE WORLDS - THE TRUE STORY. You can read about it at Space Daily, with some background here.
I actually just visited my own blog as a friend pointed out that I had misspelled Jon Stewart's name in my quote at the top. I had used the more common spelling, "John."
I saw this in the news today and it stood out amongst the sea of UFO news lately. The British Ministry of Defense has released more previously secret UFO files, detailing encounters between UFOs and the RAF. The disclosure also states that Winston Churchill had ordered a 50-year cover-up of a wartime encounter between an unidentified flying object and military pilot.
This is of particular interest to me for other than the obvious that I am making a movie about alien invasion. In 2008, I was contacted by the BBC and asked if they could include my previous version of WAR OF THE WORLDS in their BBC broadcast announcing that the Ministry of Defense was releasing most of its UFO documents. Now, after they let that sink in for a couple of years, the British government has released new documents that are even more revealing.
Here's an article at MSNBC on the latest British release of previously classified documents detailing some pretty eye raising encounters with UFOs.
Fascinating.
