Aliens land in the US.
Soldiers open fire on the Aliens
Why is there no movie where they land somewhere else and we all go “well thank fuck they didn’t land in Texas”

District 9 was excellent, but those were also refugee aliens.
You know how that’d play out over there…

That was kinda the point of the film, yes.

In Doctor Who the aliens are mostly concerned with Great Britain.

Yes, it was an experience watching Torchwood and thinking it so hilarious all this stuff was happening in Wales. Made me reflect on how I never gave a second thought to how aliens only ever landed in the United States in all the time I’ve been watching shows about aliens.
Though, to be fair, every once in a while, the (usually movie) wants us to know that the United States liberated THE ENTIRE WORLD so we’ll see a montage of racially diverse people celebrating around recognizable global landmarks. Thank you America! Please continue to bomb us to spread your freedom!
