Alien Vs. Predator 

The movie that all but destroyed the Alien and Predator movie franchises. Released in 2004 by 20th Century Fox and was directed by Paul W.S. Anderson, resident video-game adaptation hack. Follows a group of humans as they run around a pyramid for an hour, getting killed off one by one, until the only woman left alive, Alexa Woods, teams up with the Predator, and the movie suddenly changes from a sci-fi movie to a buddy flick.
Alexa 'Lex' Woods: "They're not hunting us. We're in the middle of a war."

Battlefield Earth 

Possibly one of the worst movies ever made. In the movie, Earth's military forces get run over by Psychlos (guys who look like the Klingon variant of Jamaican people) and the Earth gets taken over. 200 years later, some guy named Jonnie 'Goodboy' Tyler gets captured by the Psychlos, who are SO stupid that they teach him how to read, write, and fly transport vehicles, so using his brilliant intellect, Jonnie goes to Fort Knox to get gold for the Psychlos, then goes to Fort Knox, where he gets fighter jets (that are still working after 200 years) and gets a guy to transport himself to the Psychlo home planet, where said guy nukes everything with ONE bomb. Killed John Travolta's acting career.
Terl (played by John Travolta): "It's all about leverage!"

Frank Grimes 

The name of a character on the very popular FOX serie "The Simpsons". Worked alongside Homer Simpson as an employee of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant in one episode. Despite having an amazing post-secondary education, he can't seem to get anywhere in life. He has an apartment sandwiched between two bowling alleys (one above him, and one below him) and seems to only able to find dead-end menial jobs. Envied Homer because of the rich lifestyle of the Simpson family. Ended up going insane after Homer won a nuclear plant model-building contest that was intended for kids, and was supposed to make Homer look stupid. Stuck his hand into an highly electric power grid and was electrocuted. Also has a son name Frank Grimes Jr. who tried to kill Homer and failed.
Ahhh! AHHHH!! Insane! Insane, I tell you! I don't need to listen to you, Mr. Burns, because I'm Homer Simpson! I don't need to work, because I'm Homer Simpson! I think I'm going to go home to my mansion and eat my lobsters, because I'm Homer Simpson! What's this? "Highly electrical outlet"? Well, I don't need to wear safety gloves, because I'm Homer-

BZZZZZZTTT (Frank Grimes gets electrocuted)
The name of a popular television program on the ABC channel in early 2005. Follows a group of people who survived a plane crash while flying on an Oceanic Airlines flight from Sydney, Australia to Los Angeles. They try to survive on the island and encounter lots of odd things, including an invisible monster that may be able to communicate with the survivors, polar bears, a crazy woman who was part of a resarch team that was slaughtered on the island, a mysterious "black rock", strange voices, and more. The survivors also have to deal with problems faced within their camp, including the well-being of a woman who is pregnant, the hidden motives of a man named John Locke, and the communication barrer that exists between the survivors and a Korean couple who can't speak English. The show currently airs Wednesday at 9:00 EST on the ABC network.
John Locke: "You see this little hole? This moth's just about to emerge. It's in there right now, sturggling. It's digging it's way through the thick hide of the cocoon. Now, I could help it - take my knife, gently widen the opening, and the moth would be free - but it would be too weak to survive. Struggle is nature's way of strengthening it."

War of the Worlds 

1) The name of a science-fiction radio series created by Orson Welles, that was infamous because it made people believe there was an alien invasion happening.
2) The name of a movie about aliens trying to invade Earth.
3) The name of a movie that will be released in 2005 starring Tom Cruise about aliens who try to take over Earth.
4) The name of a series that ran for two seasons in the late 1980's to early 1990's, about a government scientist who finds out aliens have come back to recapture the Earth, and along with a Navajo military colonel named Ironhorse, his computer hacker buddy Norton, and his partner Suzanne, they try to stop the aliens. Went all to hell in the second season when the producers killed off half the cast, (including all the visible minorities!) and added more T&A in order to get more ratings.
From the 1988 TV series:

Harrison: brainwashed "We've got to stop hurting the aliens!"
Ironhorse: "Hurting the aliens? I don't remember invading their planet!"
