Favourite Alien species in SF?
What is your favourite alien species in SF (books or films)?
I think´the Na´vi is obvious, but there are also other nice ones. An interesting, highly developed and very intelligent species is the Kiint (from Peter F Hamiltons Night´s Dawn trilogy). Comaperd with the Kiint humans are like children. Their technology is far beyond what humans can even imagine. Their wisdom is nearly godlike. Here is a description: Quote:

After the Na'vi (obviously
 ). I'd probably say... the Vortigaunts. Not the prettiest faces out there, but the idea of the Vortescence is pretty cool.

I never really felt for any alien species until Avatar...
...But coming second I guess would be the Fremen... but they aren't technically an alien species, so... I guess none besides the Na'vi. I never really had a thing for aliens.

Because, my inner Star Wars nerd raged. I didn't post its feelings on the subject. So after I beat it down, I was wondering if you posted it specifically to get that reaction. Because making simple canonical errors like that is a classic trolling technique.

Besides the Na'vi...
The NTIs. "Aww man, that's better than UFOs!" I also like thinking about the mysterious aliens (or whatever they could be) of 2001: A Space Odyessy.
