Coolest Fictional Alien Race

[Nihilism_Is_Bliss]

I'm gonna go with Xenomorphs.


...but Saya is also a pretty cool.
Though I bet nobody here knows Saya.

 

[Mr Nacroe]

I would say the Beast planet from shadow raiders. the are creatures of anti mater and their planet eats other planets. let's see anything step up to that!

 

[guchifaN7]

Alternian Trolls, hands down. Who DOESN'T want a pair (or even two pairs!) of candy corn colored horns?

 

[Idiotastic]

Turians.

Why,you ask?

 

[6urk17s]

Cthulhu is an alien right?
If not then Dom'Kavash and Nomads from freelancer universe, and Precursors from Galactic Civilizations universe. Also Warhammer 40k aliens are the most badass of all alien races.

I'll see all of your alien races, and raise you this sentient life form...

Metroid aren't sentient... Anyhow, I'll raise your Metroid with the dark-energy based race of body-possessing monstrosities, the Ing. (Below picture is fanart of the Emperor Ing)

(And yes, they possess Metroid as well.)

So what's your favorite alien race in all of literature, games, movies, and TV shows?

Mine would definitely have to be the Drej from the movie Titan A.E. They're energy beings that can completely obliterate whole planets with a huge weapon mounted on their mothership. Top that!

Q Continuum. Topped. Immortal race of omnipotent beings. They also at the end of Star Trek: The Next Generation show how genius the show was, not just to entertain but to inspire our minds, to broaden our horizons, and hope to achieve what we believe impossible.

orks ork orks orks orks orks orks orks

 

[The Lugz]

something utterly nuts like an ascended ancient from Stargate i guess
they know pretty much everything and are theoretically just gods by our standards
there's just too many choices, so it has to be something to end all questions imo... i'd hate to end up regretting the decision if it ever came true!

 

[Extragorey]

Hmmm.... Do the Observers from the TV series Fringe count?
Because there's practically nothing known about them - they're completely alien, one might say...

 

[Death916]

buggers from enders game. hive queen is awesome

 

[Death916]

Zerg, indefinitely. FOR THE SWAAAAARM!

Tryanids, the far cooler version of zerg. FOR THE OVERMIND!!!

That or the Combine. I'd join.

Pfft, Tyranids, are just a rip off of the zerg. It was my first thought when I saw them (mainly HUNDREDS of them). Zerg came first, zerg are cooler, zerg are evolved, some can fly , but most of all, ZERG ARE INFINITE. The only other candidates are Predators, Xenomorphs or Protoss.

Ha ha ha oh wow, really? You're either a brilliant troll or completely ignorant, either way i can't wait for some 40k fanatic to ***** slap you.

Doesn't matter anyway since you're both wrong, For sheer fuck-ton of numbers and absolute awesomeness, it has to be...

The replicators...

ooo forgot about thoseee

 

[SuperCombustion]

The Borg... *Sprouts machine limbs* Resistance is futile!


..... or if anyone here has seen farscape, Pilot

 

[rabidmidget]

Xenomorphs, definitely.

In my opinion they have the best monster design in all of cinema, designed from the bottom up to be eerily disturbing in a multitude of ways.

[EDIT] Wait, I forgot entirely about Lovecraft's creations, damn, now it's a really tough question.

 

[Buizel91]

I choose these bad boys...

Elites rule <3

 

[Meanmoose]

Rodians! (star wars) Gluupor... Gluupor...

 

[Ekonk]

The Combine. They reduce their unlikeliness by never showing up until Ep. 2, and just use propaganda, mind control, and a brutal police state to enslave humanity.

Now that is classy.

 

[Communist partisan]

Orks from Warhammer 40K


"ORKS ORKS ORKS ORKS"

 

[Osprey212]

Weeping Angels. Scariest, most awesome, scariest, greatest, scariest alien race ever.

Sleep? No. I don't need sleep. Ever.

I'll take turns with you, you blink, then I'll blink.

 

[LavaLampBamboo]

The Turians. Because looking like a skull-raptor is awesome.
