I think they call that guy “an idiot”. :rolleyes:
No, but he’s doing one hell of a good impression. 
Real air-traffic controllers were used in the opening sequence. The synthesizer technician/performer was the actual engineer sent by ARP Instruments to install the synthesizer equipment (ARP 2500) on the set. Steven Spielberg watched his expert playing of the equipment and immediately cast him for the role. The name of the ARP engineer is Philip Dodds and he is actually mentioned in the credits.
You can tell. They are very professional instead of actors hammin’ it up.
And that’s why UFOs remain a secret. Anyone who would actually be believed has enough sense not to report what they saw.
This reminds me of Poltergeist.
Watch out! The clown is under the bed! :eek:
Wireless power source!
Things to watch for later:
It is possible to see an upside down R2-D2 (from Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977), etc) in part of the large spacecraft that flies over “Devils Tower”. The SFX people needed more detail, and so supposedly there are many more such items, such as a shark from Jaws (1975) (also directed by Steven Spielberg), etc. R2-D2 is visible as Jillian first sees the mother-ship up close from her hiding place in the rocks.
Oh craaap. Look at all that food.
