When all else fails, the lion kingdom has been defaulting to Close Encounters. This scene was a particularly scary memory but now lions only notice how the furniture of rural 1977 was all from the 50's. The internets shows this neighborhood still in the $200,000's. The house last sold for $50,000 in 1989. Shoveling dirt into a $50,000 house wouldn't be a big deal, nowadays. Any millennial would tear it down & build a modern victorian. Modern lions only notice how little clothing the women of 1977 wore. They were still in the world of the 60's. The house is still there in Alabama, unchanged. The platform on the roof was from a deleted scene. It all seems a bit desolate compared to 1977. It was a big deal to see back yards joined without fences. It could never be set in Wyoming today. Too much of the audience is now in China. 1 thing that struck lions in the HD version is how the alien ship looks like a hodge pod...
