Not enough sexy alien bitches. Modern Sci-fi sucks because they are unwilling to commit to the most essential part of science fiction. Smoking hot alien sluts. That's the only reason anyone wants to go to space in the first place. Nobody gives a fuck about exploring planets or discovering shit. It's all about being the first man to fuck some crazy space pussy. They had to kill JFK because he was going to spend billions of dollars on Project Moonpussy instead of the C.I.A.
Avatar made a billion dollars with animal fucking blue cat alien whores because people want sexy aliens and they want to fuck those sexy aliens. So in conclusion, more sexy space bitches, better science fiction.

I think its lazy as fuck, almost all intelligent aliens are humanoids because its easier to put a guy in a suit than actually put effort into making something otherworldly. Every time I see some well known actor that just has weird colored skin and some funky shit going on with the top of their head and I'm supposed to believe they're from another world it breaks my suspension of disbelief and I can't take it seriously.

What if Aliens were just like us only more technologically advanced?Not necessarily more intelligent or maybe so intelligent that they appear simple minded? What if alien visitations are just means to get Earthlings to get them free beer?

What if humans were the aliens all along? What if they colonized the planet long ago and the colonists reverted to savages, so only now are we back on track. The aliens are just other humans checking up on a colony gone rogue.

nah bruh, those skinny grey aliums are just homonculi that were created as test subjects for a time travel vehicle. simple minded task oriented biogical drones.
all made by our future selves. the vehicle was tested near earth orbit so as not to create a singularity or potential gravity well on earth.
now they are just doing tests on us and our microbiome and reproductive capabilities.

Not very realistic. Jacques Vallee was at least consulted for Close Encounters of the Third Kind, but his ideas about the nature of aliens and UFOs were turned down to fit in with audience expectations.

And frankly no. No, fucking big titted hippy space nymphos will not do. I demand thicc ass alien bimbos with rocking knockers and prehensile tongues. You know what, fuck this. I'm doing it. Nasa or the military or somebody is going to be revealing the existance of aliens within the next five years because I am going out and catching me a fucking smoking hot reptilian slut and I am going to force her to have my weird human alien hybrid babies and there isn't anything those men in black motherfuckers can do about it.

I'd like to see a bit more thought put into them. They're mostly humanoid and it seems pretty lazy. I think the only movies I can think of with some diversity in that regard is the Men in Black franchise. Some logic in the design would be pretty cool too, like, this alien lives on a planet with heavy gravitational force so it looks like this.

You know what my problems with how Hollywood portrays alien life? It's always so fucking familiar.
It's almost always some bipedal race with two eyes, a mouth, teeth, two arms and two legs with hands and feet, said hands and feet usually have little appendages attached to them, etc.
It's all so tame. see this? This is cyanobacteria. These guys are the reason Earth has oxygen on it, they existed before plants did and caused the Great Oxidation Event which lead to complex multicellular forming and eventually animals. They adsorb light and produce oxygen as a byproduct. They can form in huge gelatinous colonies numbering in the billions.
They don't even remotely function like you or I, their life strategies are wildly different and so is their life cycle.
This is a lifeform on our own fucking planet.

Or how about mycetozoa, also known as slime molds? There are thousands of species of these.
They're a strange, gooey type of life. I'll specifically be talking about myxogastrids.
Originally they were thought to be a type of fungus, but it's now known they're completely different. These things and grow quickly, can produce spores, certain species can even clump up into an individual organism then disperse again. They have a bizarre, complicated life cycle and generally feed on decaying matter or act parasitic small creatures such as insects. They're one of the most unique types of life on the planet

Or fuck, look at basically any species of ochrophyta and how fantastical it looks to the human eye.
Why cinema try to take on something like this? Instead of an animal, how about a highly advanced creature that operates like the other non-animal forms of life on Earth. A sentient fungus, or entire forests of highly mobile tree-like creatures with a sophisticated society. That would be interesting, that would be truly alien.
But no, all alien life are humanoids and all of their planets look like Earth or Mars. Fuck science-fiction.
The only pieces of media I've ever seen that try to create a truly alien looking environment are Subnautica and the Xen region of the original Half-Life.

The problem is that most directors who could bring the money for that to be real are too safe/grounded in their movies to make something truly fantastical. They are too afraid to make a truly alien-looking film because they rather have a blockbuster. It is really sad.

I liked C. S. Lewis's The Space Trilogy for making Mars and Venus into interesting planets with diverse life. For instance Mars has all of its life in ravines with creatures different then humans and Venus despite having an Adam/Eve couple is 99% ocean with massive floating islands of plant life that sustains other life. Would make a cool-looking move.
