Transcript
Now, Battle Los Angeles is going to blast into theaters March 11th, and many moviegoers will take solace in the fact that it's a work of fiction, but will a fun time at the theater dissolve into fear when they find out that the alien attack movie is actually based on a true story? There really was a battle of Los Angeles, andING, WE BELIEVE, A UFO. DURING WORLD WAR II, WHEN THE U.S. MILITARY STATIONED ARTILLERY BRIGADES ALONG THE CALIFORNIA COAST TO GUARD AGAINST A JAPANESE ATTACK, AN OBJECT APPEARED IN THE SKY, BUT IT WASN'T AN AIRPLANE. UFO INVESTIGATORS, INCLUDING BILL BURNS OF THE HISTORY CHANNEL'S UFO HUNTERS, GATHERED AT A PRESS CONFERENCE IN L.A. TO COMMEMORATE THE 69TH ANNIVERSARY OF THAT EVENT, WHICH TOOK PLACE ON THE NIGHT OF FEBRUARY 24TH, 1942. WEEKS AFTER PEARL HARBOR, WHEN AN UNIDENTIFIED FLYING OBJECT FLEW RIGHT HERE, SANTA MONICA BEACH AND REDONDO BEACH, THOUSANDS OF THOUSANDS OF ANTI-AIRCRAFT SHELLS WERE FIRED AT THIS OBJECT. SEARCH LIGHTS LIT UP THE NIGHT SKY. THEY COULDN'T HIT IT. THEY COULDN'T BRING IT DOWN. WHAT WAS IT? WHETHER IT WAS AN ALIEN SPACECRAFT OR A WEATHER BALLOON OR SOME TYPE OF ATMOSPHERIC ILLUSION, ONE THING IS CLEAR. TO THIS DAY, IT REMAINS UNIDENTIFIED. UFOs ACTUALLY REALLY DO EXIST. IT'S A MATTER OF SCIENCE, A MATTER OF FACT. BUT THEY'RE NOT THE ONLY THINGS THAT ARE UNIDENTIFIED. THEY'RE THE ONLY THINGS THAT ARE UNIDENTIFIED. THEY'RE THE ONLY THINGS THAT ARE UNIDENTIFIED. THEY'RE THE ONLY THINGS THAT ARE UNIDENTIFIED. THEY'RE THE ON it remains unidentified. UFOs actually really do exist. It's a matter of science, a matter of fact, and a matter of historical record. Now, I would like to see Battle Los Angeles. I would not like to ever hang out with Bill Burns at night when a plane flies overhead because I think he just tried to scare you. You're on the web and you haven't gotten a virus yet. That's really good news. Even better news, we're on TV. Tell them where that's right. TV about movies, reels channel. Probably didn't get a virus because they have a Mac, not a PC. Nice.
