    Who Was the Best MOVIE Alien Ever?

    Okay, the first thread was about TV aliens from a series (which is why Klaatu/Gort and Marvin the Martian weren't in it).

    This is about MOVIE aliens.

    That's not a fair question, there are too many and they're too good to make a choice.

    That's why we have comments. ;)

    With only ten slots, there's not much of a chance to get all the Aliens in. And yes, I thought about that. It came in at #11.

    I was tempted to put Kathy Ireland there... (Alien from LA - filmed entirely in a factory.)

    I'm not sure I'd have put Zaphod Beeblebrox on this list. The film version of HHG2TG, well, sucked bilge water. The old BBC series (was it a dozen episodes?), essentially a mini-series, was MUCH superior.

    So he's on the wrong list.

    No problemo. I left the schwartz ring in the car.

    I was a big fan of the BBC radio series. Used to go to sleep with it on (cassette) and the speakers surrounding my bed. The sound effects were great.
