About This Quiz

The history of the silver screen is rife with visitors from other worlds, or creatures humans meet in our exploration of deep space. Indeed, some of the most iconic characters in movie history don't always hail from humanity's home planet. From friendly extra-terrestrials who just want to befriend a young boy and share his sense of wonder about our world, to terrifying predators who think hunting humans for sport is the way to go; from chest-bursting monsters who the military foolishly imagine they can weaponize to ghostly, inspiring creatures who come to teach us about our best selves, aliens are all over our culture.

While sometimes they are simply there to entertain or to scare, often they are designed as a way for writers to explore issues that are essential to us, and to investigate our own nature. From the Klingons as a way to observe warrior culture and its parallels in the modern world to District 9's refugee aliens struggling to survive in a concentration camp, aliens help us to take a step back and think about who we are, and who we really want to be.

How well do you know the most recognizable of these most foreign of characters? Take this quiz to find out!

Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew) is a 7-foot-tall, 200-year-old Wookie. He is also copilot and best friend to Han Solo (Harrison Ford). Writer/Director George Lucas is said to have based Chewbacca’s look on his big, hairy Alaskan malamute named Indiana (a name Lucas later chose to use for Ford’s most well-known role – Indiana Jones).

Apparently, the actors in Starship Troopers really had to use their imagination when doing scenes involving the giant alien Klendathu arachnids. That’s because the director, Paul Verhoeven, used several commonplace props as stand-ins – including a broom and even himself.

Jeff Goldblum has a supporting role in this film about aliens replacing humans by replicating them in pods. The dog-man, which appears close to the end of the film, is an apparent mutation after a hobo and his dog are replicated together. That concept is very like the one featured in The Fly (1986) in which Goldblum plays a scientist who is mutated with a fly.

Mr. Spock (Leonard Nimoy) is half-human and half-Vulcan – a fact which contributed to his troubled childhood. He first appears in the original Star Trek TV series in episode 6, titled “The Man Trap” (1966). The Vulcan salute of a double-finger V sign (often accompanied by the phrase “Live long and prosper”) was invented by Nimoy, who first used it in the episode “Amok Time” in 1967.

He has expressed some regret that they had to look humanoid at all, but felt that was the only way to get the audience to truly empathize with them.

Leeloo is the Fifth Element and she learns her impressive martial arts fighting skills by watching television. Jovovich, however, was still a novice at it, so for scenes where Leeloo performs a very effective high kick, the filmmakers used a fake leg on a stick.
