Hey all! We are doing another Top 5. Feels good to do a classic.
This time we go over our favorite movie aliens. Going to warn
everyone now, no Xenomorph. We do stop to acknowledge the
overwhelming love that the Aliens from Alien and Aliens receives
from so many SciFi fans. One of my personal favorites was the
Martians from Mars Attacks. These guys are hilarious. They only
want to vaporize us with all the shiny toys. The way they talk,
their fear of birds, that creepy super model spy. How can you not
love them! The only Alien that makes both of our lists was The Borg
from Star Trek: First Contact. The Borg are relentless. They seek
to assimilate the entire galaxy into their collective. Only keeping
the beneficial attributes and annihilate anything found not worthy
or threatening. Humans are both. In First Contact they decide to
pull a Terminator and travel back in time to stop us from getting
warp. Warp speed essentially launches your entire space travel
career. Picard and the Enterprise follow them in an attempt to keep
history in tacked. This is not only an excellent Star Trek story
but an example of a powerful and extremely dangerous alien.
Before we talk about our favorite E.T.’s(But not E.T.), we go over
all the hype for September 20th’s Area 51 Raid. Most people have
heard of this as it is just peak internet. We go over the humble
beginnings of the Airport base at Groom lake and talk about the
early testing of the U2 Spy Plane. These are often the excuse for
all the UFO sightings. We then discuss some of the theories that
surround the base nicknamed Area 51. Everything from Alien bodies
to weather control. This inevitably brings up Bob Lazar and the
2018 documentary that has sparked much of the recent interest.
Lastly we talk about the Facebook event set up to invade the base.
The joke invasion should be fun to watch but we all now there will
be some idiots that will take it too far. Best case scenario, we
get Burning Man 2 in southern Nevada. Worst case, bunch of dead
Kyles that didn’t practice their Naruto Running enough. Gotta love
the internet!
