The best part of Battlefield Earth was the fact that is showed us what it might be like if we encountered another race that was as egocentric as humans are. As a race in general, we are so self centered and insist on taking anything we can get our hands on to reap any benefits, not taking into consideration the possible effects it could have on another culture or species. Battlefield Earth shows us what it might be like to be on the other side of that greed. Maybe someone, somewhere will think twice about how their actions may affect others as a result of watching this movie. Then again, maybe not.
