Still no votes for Vampire Vixens From Venus?

War of the Worlds [yep, the Tom Cruise version)

It started fine, but for me the movie absolutely ground to a halt when Tim Robbins showed up, and it never recovered.

Also, it's always bothered me that Tom Cruise was the only person on the planet that could get a car to work by replacing a simple part. Everything else electrical on Earth continued to not work, but good ol' Tom got a car up and running. Fat lot of good it did them anyway, cuz it just got jacked by a mob if I remember correctly.

The movie did provide some decent material for one of the Scary Movie spoofs, along w/ Signs.

Almost everything I could think of has already been covered, except "Oblivion." I think that counts. There is some kind of alien intelligence/tech. I liked that even more than "Edge of Tomorrow," but both are solid.

Oh, "Knowing' was a tense, kinda creepy thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat. Sort of aliens. Something non-earthly anyway.

"Knowing" was great, enjoyed that movie. Nicholas Cage, Rose Byrne, and the boy who played his son were terrific in it.
