There’s a film out at the moment called Thor and in this the lead character, Thor, is sent to earth for being a naughty boy. In many ways Thor is an Asylum seeker after being outcast from his home planet. No legislation has been introduced yet to help aliens or people from other planets that are kicked out and sent to earth. Cameron may have to introduce this in time if it becomes an issue. Basically this started getting my brain working. Has anyone ever gone the other way and emigrated from earth to a foreign planet? This is what I came up with…

1) The first is from the Masters of the Universe with Dolph Lundgren. Here Skeletor is fighting with He-man to take power of a tonal key that enables people to be transported anywhere they desire. To escape Skeletor, He-man and his crew hit a few random buttons on the tonal key and end up being sent to earth. Skeletor, who’s unhappy with the situation, travels to earth to destroy He-man and get the key. Now whilst all this fighting on earth takes places there’s a Detectice Lubic who is trying to arrest whoever is causing all this chaos. To cut a long story short, He-man & Co win the battle but in doing so send a load of earth people to He-mans planet. Most at the end want to head back to good old earth but Lubic has a better idea. He’s fed up with earth, one minute he’s shit his pants having been transported to another planet with what he calls a “bunch of whackos”, the next he’s thinking “meh, I may as well emigrate”. Literally it takes him seconds to change his mind. But who wouldn’t, in the final scene he’s got a hot lady on his arm, a new castle pad and a completely new look. He could probably even start introducing Macy d’s and Starbucks and make a tidy fortune. That’s another thing I’ve noticed, people from other planets are well easy to pull. This guy managed it in seconds, and he’s fat and bold. Plus they gave him a castle!

2) I don’t know that much about the Stargate film, but what I know is that a bunch of Americans, including an Egyptologist and some US troops, are sent to a planet with the use of an ancient transporter. I won’t go through the story, but what I will tell you is that a Dr Daniel Jackson emigrates to this planet. Yet again he finds a hot bird and decides to turn down the opportunity to return to earth. Is this the future of emigration? People have not only had enough of their country but they’ve had enough of their planet. Judging by these two examples it doesn’t sound too bad.

3) Now to give earth a break there are some creatures that do decide to go the other way, in this example it’s a duck. Howard the Duck makes the choice to save his earth friends by destroying a machine, which would take him back to his duck world, so he can drive out an evil monster and subsequently save the day. To be fair if I had the choice between sleeping in the arms of Lea Thompson or returning to a duck world, I would go for the former. There is quite a lot of bestiality in this film, I’m sure the sequel would involve Thompson being banged up for…you know the rest.

If you can think of any other immigration or emigration of aliens, creatures or humans then go comment.
