Not the films, but the creatures themselves: the designs, the performances, the personalities, and why some of them stuck with us for decades. From lovable companions like  Max from  Flight of the Navigator , to nightmare fuel like  The Thing , we each bring five picks to the table and count them down to a shared Top 10. Along the way we cover: Why some aliens work because they  aren’t  monsters The brilliance of performers inside suits and behind puppets How design, sound, and movement sell an alien more than CGI ever could And why a few of these choices still hit harder today than they did back then Funny, nostalgic, occasionally horrifying - this is a love letter to the aliens that shaped a generation of sci-fi, with some terrible impressions and questionable accents.
