Best Alien race in Sci-Fi

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: Ion Silverbolt

Of all the alien races portrayed in Sci-Fi, which one do you think is the best? They can be either friend or foe. Doesn't matter.

My favorite has to be the Asgard in Stargate SG-1. They look kind of cheesy, but I love how they are portrayed in the show. They also don't have that silly humanoid appearance with just a different forehead ripple either...hehe

Mon Calamari.

ITS A TRAP!

The Klendathu (Starship Troopers)

Favorite cheesy lines:
"To defeat the bug, we have to know the bug."
"I find the idea of a bug that thinks offensive!"

Runner-ups are the aliens in, well, Aliens...

Kodos and Kang or maybe E.T.

The Borg. Hands down, the Borg.

The aliens in The Aliens series are quite badass. But I don't know if I'd say they are my favorite. I dig the whole Klingon race, probably my favorite out of Star Trek, I find it quite refreshing to have an old warrior ethic that is common in many ancient cultures, in early stages of civilization, hundreds of years in the future and technologically advanced. But again, not my favorite over-all.

I think I'm going to say Unicron from the Transformers.
Yes.

--edit--

Also, on a similar note, I think the worst alien from any movie is going to have to be the alien in Contact. It was her ****ing dad, biggest let-down. I was totally into that flick until her goddamn father pops through the bubble and says he's the ****ing alien. **** that sucked.

Star Trek Voyager pretty much ruined the Borg. They were awsome in the NG though.

Predator, The ultimate hunters!

mmm.... I don't think there was a specific name for them besides the general description of predator.



Posted by: Nfested

I like the Shi'ar in X-men, if that counts.

And I thought The Borg were better in Voyager. Jeri Ryan makes anything better .



Posted by: justinious

I'd say The Predator or the Alien. Although Jeri Ryan was good eye-candy, the Borg went lame after it became a 'hive' instead of a 'collective'.

Runner up: 'Sil' from Species.

The best alien race is the one I'm gonna find from running SETI all day long.

Seriously though, my vote goes to predator.

Species 8472 the only ones that could give the Borg a run for their money.

otherwise, the ewoks. don't just want to hug them and squeeze them and love them to death?

Well duh!

The Klingon's, and the Ga'uld (think that's right) are definitely cool, although i think Predator is the best.
