10 Hottest Aliens in Movies
Let me tell you why I love science fiction movies. For a start there are the spacecrafts, the mysterious and diverse planets, and the rich and intelligent plots. But also, there are the babes. Ah, the babes!

It might be an odd attraction, but attraction it is. Here we list our ten personal favorites.
It was only a matter of time: Study shows how scientists can now ‘read your mind’
It sounds like a bit of science-fiction – but scientists say they have found a way to read the human mind.
Researchers at University of California, Los Angeles have developed what they call a ‘brain reading’ that uses past history to determine future cognitive patterns and thought process.

American Psychosis: What happens to a society that cannot distinguish between reality and illusion?…
The United States, locked in the kind of twilight disconnect that grips dying empires, is a country entranced by illusions. It spends its emotional and intellectual energy on the trivial and the absurd. It is captivated by the hollow stagecraft of celebrity culture as the walls crumble. This celebrity culture giddily licenses a dark voyeurism into other people’s humiliation, pain, weakness and betrayal. Day after day, one lurid saga after another, whether it is Michael Jackson, Britney Spears or John Edwards, enthralls the country … despite bank collapses, wars, mounting poverty or the criminality of its financial class.

Top 10 Silent Movie Comedians
“Behind the music and hand-cranked camera shots lie something else entirely, for those willing to take a look. It is a world of magic- as novelist Paul Auster described in The Book of Illusions saying the films are ‘like poems, like the renderings of dreams, like some intricate choreography of the spirit.’ Here are the top ten comedians of the era, some well known, others virtually forgotten, all willing to put their bodies, backsides and in some case lives on the line all for the sake of a good laugh.”
