Why would they make an alien race more human just to try to get viewers to "sympathize with the deaths"?
As long as the scene is carried out properly, the subjects don't have to be no where near human in order to wave an affect on the viewer. Look at god killing kittens everytime someone wanks. Not only does it create babies, but a spiteful god releases himself on a poor helpless KITTEN!
See animals can have our sympathy too. It's not the book we're looking at, it's the material we're reading which makes us enjoy it.
