What's the rush? After all, it is not like the moon and Mars are going
anywhere. Last time I checked, they have no plans to relocate or
disappear.

On the other hand, Alpha Centauri may ram Earth:

Oh, good; I fondly remember the 1951 original, although it
certainly wasn't up to the level of, say, the original
"The Day The Earth Stood Still." But I'll be looking
forward to this remake.

I'm keen to see how they explain Alpha Centauri heading our way at a
speed that would get it here within any reasonable timeframe.

Do you think it would be in poor taste to show up at the premiere in a
wheel chair and start yelling at the audience that you are richer than
all of them put together and you hope they all get burned to death when
Earth is destroyed, for there is no room for the filthy poor on the new
planet?
