I often wondered if the later movies could have focused more on what made the first one so special – really developing the characters and digging deeper into the historical setting. That might have given fans the emotional connection they were originally looking for, instead of shifting towards aliens and outer space.

Here’s a ranking of the most powerful alien heroes who have protected Earth, from the most famous to some lesser-known favorites.

Released in 2023, The Creator is a film directed by Gareth Edwards that initially generated a lot of excitement. While critics offered mixed reviews (it currently has a 67% score on Rotten Tomatoes), audiences generally enjoyed it more, giving it a 75% audience score. Over time, the film has gained even more appreciation, and is now available to stream on Prime Video. Many consider it to be underrated.

During an interview at the Gran Turismo World Series 2025 World Finals, Kazunori Yamauchi told GTPlanet that Gran Turismo 7 is currently in the best state of any Gran Turismo game ever released. He noted that neither the game nor PlayStation has ever seen this level of success before.

Spider nearly dies from lack of oxygen, but Kiri saves him by fundamentally altering his body to allow him to breathe the air of Pandora. Unfortunately, when the RDA captures him, they treat him as an experiment instead of a person, deepening his distress. His only ally among them is Miles Quaritch, who is also changing as he begins to understand the true nature of Pandora.

Avatar: Fire and Ash brought in $88 million in North American ticket sales during its opening weekend, and $345 million worldwide. While these numbers are much higher than the total box office for Tron: Ares, the film didn’t perform as well as the previous Avatar movie. Avatar: The Way of Water earned $134 million domestically and $435 million globally during its opening weekend in 2022.

The very first episode of Doctor Who, titled “An Unearthly Child,” featured the First Doctor (William Hartnell) and his companions – his granddaughter Susan Foreman (Carole Ann Ford) and her teachers, Ian Chesterton (William Russell) and Barbara Wright (Jacqueline Hill) – encountering a tribe from the Stone Age. This initial story showed the show’s original goal: to teach children about history. But just one week later, on December 21, 1963, the second episode transported viewers to an alien planet and introduced the Daleks, completely changing the direction of Doctor Who.
