For me not so much, I like the fact he is old enough to know he will have a good deal of experience behind him(I think it's cause I have just recently saw Battle: Los Angeles and the old geezer works so well there)

I don't mind the "teenage soldier" cliche but in there cases their backgrounds are much less believable than a real old guy.

Also with otherworldly beings coming to earth, I think it's better to have a guy with life experience to show em the ropes and interact with than some teenager that doesn't have a clue.

But then I don't think too many young kids would be reading this anyway.

Love those characters btw, there are cliches thrown in left, right and center but they don't seem bad at all.
