So what did Alpha Centauri ever do to us?
Nicked from

Latest Keanu Reeves movie too be beamed at Alpha Centauri!
According to the press release, Twentieth Century Fox will transmit the re-make of The Day The Earth Stood Still to the nearest star system to us on Friday the 12th, timing the event to coincide with the film’s opening. They got a private transmission network to do the job and everything. Now admittedly, according to currennt astronomical theory the radio signal should be indistinguishable from background noise at less than a light year. But still do we really think the work of the Keanudroid is an appropriate thing to even try to advertise to the rest of the universe?
