Will Intelligent Extraterrestrial Life Look Like Us?

In the movies, intelligent extraterrestrials generally look like us: they?re anthropomorphic. Mind you, the specifics of their appearance hinge on their motives. Good aliens, such as E.T. and the friendly little guys from Close Encounters of the Third Kind, are child-like and cuddly, while bad aliens (by far the majority) are often reminiscent of reptiles and insects ? creatures that we like to either turn into shoes or swat. There are occasional exceptions to these rules, such as R2 D2, from Star Wars, who looks like a canister vacuum cleaner that?s lost its hose. But most extraterrestrials hardly deviate from the basic blueprint of Homo sapiens. Consequently if you ask a guy on the street to draw an alien, chances are he?ll sketch a rather humanoid ?grey? ? small, hairless, unwilling to smile, and shamelessly nude.

That's because the actors playing them are human😛 ,hence the limited number of non humonoid aliens ,though as I'm sure we've all noticed with CGI becoming more widespread the non humanoid aliens are becoming a little more common

Thx Ulli🙂
