this is something that has always bugged me, but I couldn't put it into words, as it was just a feeling I had and didn't know what was irking me so much.
it's simple really. in alien attack movies like independence day, when "we" humans are attacking the aliens, we are using technologies from the 70s at best, 80s at MOST. think about it, in all these movies you see, they're like "our bullet guns aren't working", then "should we nuke"?. this leaves out the HUNDREDS of new technologies that have been created since these 2 weapons (bullets and nukes), have been made.
this seems to be for simple reasons. most people don't even know of new school weapons, most don't look into it, and if you were to explain a lot of them to people, they would flat out doubt you.
also, they obviously don't want any one else to see the goodies they have, though electromagnetic/microwave weapons aren't new, though they are being perfected.
lastly, they really don't want the public to know that they have been planning in fear (supposedly) of such attacks, and they don't want the public to know of the weapons that may one day be used on them, not the enemy. we have seen this with the sound weapons used in iraq, now being used on american citizens during political conventions and at general protests.
