Thursday Movie Picks: Alien Movies


Welcome to another episode of Thursday Movie Picks, the weekly series hosted by Wandering through the Shelves where you pick three films each week to fit the theme of that week.

Good or evil, the world is full of movies about aliens, which is exactly this week's topic. Today I'm going with three films I liked - more or less -, they all involve at least one alien, but they don't alway are the good guys.

E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982)

This shouldn't require me telling you what it is about but just in case you have never seen it, a 10-year-old boy finds an alien, and not only they become friends but they also establish some kind of deep connection. This is the alien movie, one of the best ever made. I don't think I need to say more other than I expect this film to be quite popular this week.

Monsters vs. Aliens (2009)

When aliens menace to destruct the Earth, the President of the United States has to call into action a crew of monsters that were secretly hidden in a government facility. This one isn't nothing special, but it still manages to be enjoyable and there's plenty of evil, maybe too dumb aliens.

The Avengers (2012)

Loki comes to Earth to subjugate the human race and brings with him tons of aliens that once again destroy New York City, and the Avengers must stop him/them. Okay, the aliens here are not so important, but I love the film and can we please talk about Tom Hiddleston's Loki? Simply scary.
