The "Alien" movie saga has had its ups and downs. While entries like "Alien: Covenant" and "Prometheus" have received their share of moderately positive attention, the first two movies remain the franchise's brightest gems.

The first reactions to Fede Álvarez's upcoming "Alien" movie are now here — and while many are positive, there's enough division that it remains to be seen whether "Alien: Romulus" will blow you away.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

In the late 1970s, Sigourney Weaver became an early action icon, blasting the male-dominated space doors off their hinges in the sci-fi genre as Ellen Ripley in Alien. The impact of her outer space heroine continues to reverberate, influencing scores of actresses who came after her, like Kate Beckinsale, Jennifer Lawrence, and Charlize Theron. Between her Tony Award-Winning stage work and Emmy nods for TV miniseries, Weaver has been honored with two Golden Globe Awards, a Grammy, and three Academy Award nominations. Not bad for an actress who didn't know where her six-foot frame fit in.

Breaking the fourth wall and doing things without an explanation is Deadpool’s thing, I get that. Hopping across universes with Cable’s time travel device? Fine, he can do it. Visiting Earth-616 to interview for joining the Avengers about whom he somehow already knew? Okay, nodding along with the Merc with a Mouth. But what about the rest of the unexplainable plot holes in Deadpool & Wolverine?

Since the first two films in the 1980s, the sci-fi horror series has been a very mixed bag. But this latest gets back to basics, and makes for a superbly scary monster movie. There have already been eight Alien films, including the two Alien vs Predator spin-offs, but if you add up the Alien films which are genuinely good, that number gets much, much smaller. The series is notorious for sequels and prequels that were compromised by personality clashes and studio interference, and even the last two, Prometheus and Alien: Covenant, ended up being derivative and pretentious muddles, despite being made by the director of the peerless 1979 original, Ridley Scott.
