So why doesn't Jack want to go with his alien chick friend?


I guess Jack was on the alien chick's "friend ladder". He was pretty much screwed then.

Also why didn't Ron Howard direct the movie?

Good questions.

I think it was strongly hinted in the vision she showed to him, that he wanted children. Not possible with the alien.

She cared for him deeply but since they were different creatures the most they could do was to let her share herself to him. She couldn't handle bon appetit time she def couldn't do coitus lol. Her best way of showing her love for him was to help guide Jack to his future and his destined love.

If I had to guess he felt the story was done with the original.
