Alien! Extraterrestrial!
Aliens! 👽👽👽
“Tellurian” means “of the Earth—inhabiting the Earth”.
“Extratellurian” therefore means “of another world—inhabiting another world”.
In Star Wars, Yoda is an extratellurian Jedi Grandmaster who leads the Jedi Order and who teaches the Jedi younglings, only for them to get…sliced and diced…Uh-oh.
In Avengers: Infinity War (and Endgame), Thanos is an extratellurian Titan who sought to wipe out half of all sentient life in order to “balance” the universe. And the Chitauri are a bunch of extratellurian howling crocodile dudes that try to…run n’ gun across New York…another uh-oh.
In Destroy All Humans!, Cryptosporidium is an extratellurian adventurer and infiltrator tasked with saving the Furon race from cloning itself to extinction. And he steals brains…
Uh-oh City!

Movies with aliens that present them as brutal extratellurian threats in the eyes of the human race are usually called “alien invasion films”.
