Are You Alien Or Predator?

In the inter-species war between Alien and Predator, which side are you on? Based on what we see, it’s better to take sides now. Take the quiz and find out!

Are You Alien Or Predator?

Ever wondered if you're more of a stealthy survivalist like the creatures from the iconic "Alien" series, or a formidable intergalactic hunter akin to the "Predator" from its eponymous 1987 film debut? These two extraterrestrial species have captured the imaginations of sci-fi fans for decades, becoming cultural icons in the process. Both "Alien" and "Predator" have spawned extensive media franchises that explore the dangerous and often gruesome encounters between humans and these otherworldly beings.

While real life is decidedly less fraught with alien encounters (fortunately or unfortunately, depending on your thirst for adrenaline), the spirit of these creatures lives on through countless fans who align themselves with the traits and ethos of one or the other. Are you more of a calculating creature of the hive, vastly intelligent and horrifyingly efficient? Or perhaps you see yourself as the lone predator, valuing honor as you collect trophies from worthy adversaries?

If the curiosity is clawing at your chest (hopefully, not like a certain alien embryo), you're in luck. There's a way to test your extraterrestrial affinity without having to venture into the far-flung corners of outer space or the shadowy jungles of a distant world. Get ready to channel your inner sci-fi warrior and discover where you fall in the cosmic spectrum of these legendary movie monsters.

Predator Prowls and Alien Antics: A Closer Look

Ready to find out if you're team Xenomorph or team Yautja? Before you jump to conclusions, let's dissect the classic clashes and iconic elements that define the Alien and Predator franchises.

Star-Studded Extravaganza: Memorable Casts Across Time

Arnie as Dutch pumping iron with a Predator in the Central American jungle? Solid gold. His muscle-bound heroics in the first Predator movie set the stage for future encounters with these intergalactic threats. Fast-forward to Danny Glover grappling with Predators in Predator 2's Los Angeles, bringing a gritty urban angle to the cosmic feud. On the flip side, Ellen Ripley, played by the indomitable Sigourney Weaver, gave facehuggers the boot and redefined science fiction heroics in the Alien series. Remember, she's not just a survivor; she's your sassy space mom.

Spacecrafts and Spear Tips: Iconic Design and Weaponry

From the sleek biomechanical horror of H.R. Giger's Alien design to the Predators' dreadlocked menace complete with wrist blades that would make Wolverine jealous, these franchises never skimp on style. The predator's arsenal, you've got to admit, is kind of awesome. Camo cloaks, plasma casters, and those nifty flying discs; it's like an intergalactic sportsman's dream. And let's not overlook those snazzy spacecrafts, especially the Prometheus and Alien: Covenant ships – talk about cruising the cosmos in style!

Hunting Grounds: From Jungles to Urban Jungles

The Predators have a knack for choosing thrilling vacation spots. From the leafy confines of the Central American jungle where Dutch first squared off against the extraterrestrial hunter, to the concrete jungle of Los Angeles in Predator 2. The Aliens, though, are more about the long game – they prefer their humans marooned in inescapable space facilities or derelict spacecraft. It's like they know how to set the mood for a perfect horror show. Creepy? Sure. But it gives "house hunting" a whole new meaning.
