“Men In Black” and “Independence Day” were basically spoofs, and shouldn’t be on the list. My favorites include 50s classics like “The Day The Earth Stood Still,” “Target Earth,” “Forbidden Planet,” and the original Gene Barry version of “War of the Worlds.”
This is about alien movies, but I thought the 1960’s TV series “The Invaders” and the Obama-era version of “V” and “Falling Skies” were alien TV classics.
