While sci-fi books and movies don’t necessarily have to revolve around aliens to qualify as part of the genre, discussions about life on other worlds have always featured compelling, memorable stories. The 1980s were a decade that saw a rise in the popularity and scale of science fiction, especially when it comes to alien narratives. Classics like the Star Wars sequels, E.T. the Extraterrestrial, and many more contributed to the development of audience perception of aliens today. Whether they were fearsome antagonists or friendly allies, the depictions of these fictional creatures are far-reaching.
