Xiliens in Final Wars weren't so bad appearance-wise, but how they were excuted was...
Everytime I saw them getting ready to fight it was like watching Power Rangers and The MAtrix mixed with DBZ all over again. And every one of you guys know what I mean when I say that:

1. Swinging their capes around as they fight=Power Ranger Villian style
2. Jumping down from short ledges while swinging their capes, trying to look badass=Power Ranger Villian style
3. Kaiser=Super Saiyan DBZ
4. Stopping thousands of beam pullets using Kaiser Powers= The Matrix
5. Those little high speed moments between Oozaki(whoever) and That Xllien Kid Leader dude=DBZ/Matrix

Overall I can see how they are not favored to some extent.

I'll go with the classic Xiliens.

Pretty true (though I know nothing of DBZ and thus can't really back up those reference points), but I dug the commander. He seemed stoned on something three quarters of the time, was a glory hound, had no qualms about executing his superiors on national television, and had Dr. Claw style temper tantrums when his monsters got squashed by Godzilla.

I voted Vortex because they need the love. I wish those crazy kids could've put in a cinema appearence.

I don't think the Seatopians count as Alien X_X

But, I can see why they'd be included.

An Alien race full of hot chicks, bent on world domination....Damn now that I think about it, my friend was right!

I sincerely hope you're joking.


It's definitely gotta be the Xiliens for me. Like Ethan said, the Xilien Commander is easily one of the best villains in the entire series. I'm also very fond of the Black Hole Aliens. Gotta love that make up and the shiny outfits. The sound effects they make are also golden, and hilarious.

Gotta go with the classic Xilien. The controller is awesome, and their plot actually elevated that film over the original Ghidorah... with few monsters. That's no easy feat.

Their use in Godzilla Island, Final Wars, and games more or less cements them as the defacto alien race in the franchise too.

Also... why are the Futurians and the Seatopians included?

I was thinking the same thing, Seatopians seem more like a underground advance civilzation than a Alien race. But the only thing that makes them stand-out is that they got alien connections

And Futurians...Aren't they still humans but with future technology and they come from the future to which Godzilla has heavily effected that time in a negative way? Or something like that.

Probably because they play roles the same role.

Then the Red Bamboo should be included.

They weren't really invaders. They used their monster for defense, not offense.

I go with the Simeans. They tried twice, which is pretty valliant. And they are the closest to achieve their goal. Plus, the films they are in are just the most entertaining. Not to mention that they are cool for not only building MG but also being total rip offs of the Planet of the Apes creatures and IMO get away with it.

However, why are the Seatopians and Futurans here? They're human. Sure, they may be alien in the sense that they do not live in our specific air space nor time but c'mon, they're human. And I never really carred for the Vortaak. I really wish they build on the cheesiness that the GDAMM's Vortaak leader had. But then it was changed to a matriarch and just tried to make it too "cool". I enjoy the cheesiness.

Yeah, as I thought I said in the first post - the Seatopians and Futurians have very alien rolls. The Seatopians even have made friend with the Nebula M Space Hunter (presumably while in cockroach form) and the Futurians were even mistaken for aliens by Major Spielberg. The roles were very similar.

Eh, must be my sleepy night eyes tricking me into not seeing it. But I still do not see that being validating. I mean, I may be mistaken for an alien but it doesn't make me one. Oh well. Atleast it works with the variety.
