Disney is the gift that keeps on giving for Star Wars fans (depending on who you ask), and the six shorts released via Tales of the Jedi marks another hit miniseries for Disney+.

The Last of Us

At the heart of HBO's new series, an eponymous adaptation of the video game The Last of Us, lies the relationship between a mourning father and an orphaned girl. The chemistry of the actors cast to play Joel and Ellie needs to be just right, but Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey (both of Game of Thrones fame) may just be the ones to pull it off.&nbsp;At the very least, they already seem to be have proven themselves a hilarious pair when it comes to their interviews together.

Star Wars has never shied away from depictions of the military and its commanders. After all, the galaxy had been fighting the Clone Wars before the events of A New Hope. The Rebel Alliance kept it going long after the battles between the Separatists and the Galactic Republic came to an end during the civil war.&nbsp;Sure, there's plenty of political intrigue carried out by <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/star-wars-political-figures-ranked/jonathan-kantor">powerful political leaders</a>, like Mon Mothma and <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/star-wars-tarkin-timeline/jonathan-kantor">Grand Moff Tarkin</a>, but the military is where the real story takes place… at least in the original trilogy. The battle between the Rebel Alliance and the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/star-wars-empire-facts/tyler-mitchell">Empire</a> pits some of fiction's most powerful military leaders against one another.

Spaceballs

As far as <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/mel-brooks-movies-behind-the-scenes-v1/armani-barron" target="_blank">Mel Brooks</a> comedies go, 1987&#39;s&nbsp;Spaceballs&nbsp;is usually ranked among the likes of&nbsp;Blazing Saddles,&nbsp;The Producers, and&nbsp;Young Frankenstein&nbsp;as among his best. It combines an all-star cast of comedic actors&nbsp;with Brooks&#39;s signature joke-a-minute sensibility to parody not just&nbsp;Star Wars&nbsp;but the entire <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-sci-fi-comedy-movies/ranker-film" target="_blank">science fiction genre</a>.&nbsp;

But while&nbsp;Spaceballs&nbsp;is regarded as a great comedy, it&#39;s also an impressive technical achievement. Brooks wanted the special effects in&nbsp;Spaceballs&nbsp;to be as good as the ones from the movies he was parodying; to achieve this, he hired the same people who made those effects: George Lucas&#39;s Industrial Light and Magic team.

Most people glance at a quick summary or watch a trailer before going to see a movie to decide if it’s worth their time. In some cases, however, even this level of preparation can detract from the viewing experience. Some summaries tell too much of the story and some trailers give away major plot points and leave you expecting a particular image or scene when you see the movie. While every genre is capable of being spoiled with too much prior information,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-greatest-sci-fi-movies">sci-fi</a>&nbsp;is particularly susceptible. With its intricate world-building and high-concept payoffs, it usually deserves to be seen with as little context as possible.&nbsp;The good thing about <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/most-underrated-2000s-action-movies/tyler-mitchell">underrated movies</a> is that it’s easier to see them blind. For whatever reason, the films on this list never get the attention of&nbsp;Inception,&nbsp;or&nbsp;The Martian, or the&nbsp;Alien&nbsp;franchise, and because of this, there is less information swirling around the internet to spoil them for people who haven’t had the joy of watching them yet. All of these movies are underrated gems that offer unique viewing experiences. The less you know about them before watching, the more surprising and powerful they will be. With that said, this list explains why each movie deserves to be seen without context. There are, therefore,&nbsp;major spoilers ahead.

Best Movies

The best alien movies, ranked by fans of space and sci-fi genres. Famous alien related movies can take several forms. What are the best alien movies? Many films about extraterrestrials,&nbsp;alien&nbsp;themed&nbsp;abductions, or visitors from other planets turn them into traditional horror villains. These &quot;alien war&quot; movies tend to follow a simple pattern: 1) UFOs arrive on Earth, 2) a misunderstanding or outright evil intent sparks a war between aliens and humanity, 3) with massively destructive and terrifying results.

Whether the movies are funny, scary, or totally crazy, there are plenty of parallels to be found between them. Consider the similarities of&nbsp;Battle: LA, Steven Spielberg&#39;s War of the Worlds, and even Tim Burton&#39;s genre parody, Mars Attacks. However, there are also films in which aliens are not an interstellar threat but a boon to humanity, or at least well-intentioned explorers like Arrival. E.T. is the classic example of the &quot;friendly alien&quot; genre &ndash; and the xenomorphs in the Alien franchise stay in outer space, so that&#39;s good for humans, too. E.T. is also one of the best alien <a href="https://www.ranker.com/tags/kids-movies?ref=internalCrossLinking_tag">kids movies</a> ever made.

What are the best alien films of all time? Often in these films, the aliens are tragically misunderstood, and it&#39;s the primal nature of human beings that spark conflict. Finally, there are numerous films about aliens which attempt to &quot;realistically&quot; depict what might happen if humans and extraterrestrials interacted. These include Close Encounters of the Third Kind (another Spielberg film!), District 9, and even abduction films purportedly based on &quot;true stories,&quot; such as Fire in the Sky. All-in-all this is far more than just a top 10 list of the best alien movies.

While this list does not include all alien movies ever made, it is a list of the best alien films. What do you think are the greatest alien movies of all time? Vote up the good alien movies you&#39;d watch over and over, and vote down&nbsp;the ones that aren&#39;t worth your time.

People Who Write

The best science-fiction writers are among some of the most creative writers ever. Instead of only making up a story, they make up entire universes, time dimensions, alien technologies - it&#39;s really incredible. Truth be told, some are more successful than others - it is really easy to write bad scifi. But those who can actually pull the genre off are right here on this list of the top science-fiction authors. These are the best science-fiction authors of all time, ranked by readers and fans.

This list include some highly recognizable and classic names, like Isaac Asimov and George Orwell, along with some contemporary science-fiction writers who are just beginning to make their mark on the genre. This list of the best sci-fi authors includes some of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-horror-novelists">best horror writers</a> and the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-fantasy-authors">best fantasy authors</a>, but since the genres elements all go together nicely, it&#39;s to be expected. Fans of science-fiction know that there is always some overlap. All of the famous sci fi authors on this list have one thing in common: they&#39;ve written fantastic, horrifying, mystical works of science-fiction for fans to enjoy for years to come. Vote for your favorite sci-fi authors here.

Listed among the best science-fiction authors are some of the most well-known, popular sci-di authors ever, including a few that may not always show up on a &#39;best of&#39; list. Disagree with a choice? Vote it down. The aforementioned (brilliant) writers are responsible for some of the best science-fiction novels and series of all time - but other sci-fi writers like Ray Bradbury (Fahrenheit 451), Mary Shelley (Frankenstein), Robert Louis Stevenson (The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde), and Aldous Huxley (Brave New World) are excellent sci-fi writers as well. All of these authors, in my opinion, deserve a place of honor on this list.

Hopefully, this list will grow and become totally comprehensive. Readers who are new to sci-fi can use it as a great guide to find new science fiction authors and books.

Certainly, several Star Trek&nbsp;films could be considered among the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-space-movies/all-genre-movies-lists" target="_blank">best space movies</a>.

Generally speaking, many Star Trek&nbsp;fans consider 1982&#39;s <a href="/list/star-trek-ii-the-wrath-of-khan-cast-and-actors-in-this-movie/reference" target="_blank">Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan</a>&nbsp;to be one of the best, if not *the* greatest Star Trek&nbsp;movie ever made. It&#39;s hard to deny that this film isn&#39;t awesome, with battles between the crew of the starship Enterprise&nbsp;and the evil Khan Noonien Singh.

The Star Trek&nbsp;movie franchise has enjoyed a revival, thanks in large part to J.J. Abrams&#39;s 2009 movie Star Trek&nbsp;and 2013&#39;s Star Trek Into Darkness.&nbsp;Where should these modern era Star Trek&nbsp;movies fall in comparison to the classics?
