Your Favorite Alien Movie

[Onyx Oblivion]

I'm going with Avatar, because I have not seen District 9, and likely won't as I no longer subscribe to any DVD rental service, and will never buy a DVD.

 

[DayDark]

Aliens, or Predator 2

 

[Casual Shinji]

Alien is a given and so is Predator.

But 2001: a Space Odyssey is probably my favourite.

 

[Casual Shinji]

War of the Worlds (the newest one - with Cruise) is my favorite alien themed movie. I know that is probably an unpopular choice, but I really enjoyed it.

It's not that unpopular.

I really liked this movie thoughout the first half. The minute Tim Robbins enterd the scene, however, it fell flat for me.

 

[Batfred]

For comedy - Tremors

Tremors are not aliens are they??

The very opening scene is of a something in space crashing in mid-west America. It is only an assumption, but to me that means that the Grabboids are aliens.

 

[Sonicron]

Aliens, Alien 3, Predator, ... yes, I do like me some good mutilation, thank you for asking.

 

[Soxafloppin]

I don't know many "alien" movies. So I will go with Alien and District 9. and Signs, by M. Night Shyamalan.

I'm going to fight popular-uncomformity and say Avatar...

Quiet.

People are conforming to popular-nonconformity by not liking Avatar. Does that mean you are being a non-conformist my not conforming to popular un-conformity?

I remember the good old days of liking what we liked and not liking what we didnt like. Without having to worry if you were conforming or being a none coforming emo asshole.

Thoses were good days.

OT: Predator (The first one)

 

[Callisto49]

Why, 'District 9' of course. Also, 'Aliens'.

 

[Hunde Des Krieg]

Aliens. But perhaps to be replaced by Avatar.

Grabboids are not aliens. The very opening scene is Earl sleeping in the truck and kevin bacon wakes him by bouncing on the truck and yelling stampede.

Avatar
District 9
Enemy Mine
Aliens

In that order, sue me...

 

[IrirshTerrorist]

Independence Day.

 

[NoDamnNames]

For gritiness - The Thing (Kurt Russell version)
For dakka dakka - Aliens
For comedy - Tremors
For 50s/60s B-film - The Village of the Damned
For overall - Avatar or Transformers : The Movie (animated - and the only true Transformers film)

EDIT: I forgot a category...
For tongue-in-cheek ridiculousness - Starship Troopers

Graboids were Aliens?

Burt was more likely to be an alien...

Earth Girls are Easy. In this move, you see Geena Davis in a g-string before she hit it big and got all high and mighty.

 

[CK76]

The Day the Earth Stood Still, the 1950s one. It was the first alien film I ever saw, "Klaatu barada nikto!"

Oh, and yes I enjoyed District 9 a great deal as well.

 

[lvl9000_woot]

Mars Attacks

 

[Indecizion]

Starship troopers is pretty awesome but im gonna go ahead and say Alien, got the quadrillogy for christmas and yeah pretty EPIC!

 

[sam_savage1393]

I'm going to fight popular-uncomformity and say Avatar...

Agreed, but I also enjoy District 9, and Signs.

I preferred Aliens (the second one) to Alien. I never really got into that film much.
I also liked the Predator films quite a lot as well (the first probably just edges it).
