Monday's Riddle set our charts for the stars this week, and Fairday reviewed the stellar new middle grade book The Fellowship for Alien Detection by Kevin Emerson- stop by the post and enter for a chance to win a copy of this far-out story! Saint Patrick's Day is almost here, and it's time to get your Irish on. The Lucky Leprechaun Book Giveaway Hop will be launching on Friday, plus Kevin Emerson will be stopping by to tell us a little more about his story. Saturday, we always look forward to hearing from you on The DMS Wants to Know. Today, we want to take a moment to shout out to two aliens who are really out of this world!
This week's top of the heap: Awesome Aliens ✌
Lizzy: What can I say? I have to pick E.T.! I mean, he is the pinnacle of adorable aliens. I love the scene when they are being chased, and E.T. lifts all the bicycles into the air- the looks on the kids' faces is priceless. It would be amazing to befriend an extra-terrestrial like E.T., as long as I had some Reeses Pieces with me! ~ L
Who could ever stop loving The Flintstones! Yabba Dabba Do still rings in my ears and I want to do a happy dance.
ReplyDeleteI'm getting ET again on Netflix. I need a blast from the past.
Lee- So awesome to hear your comments. :) I love Yabba Dabba Doooooo! ~L
DeleteMarvin The Martian! So cutely evil. :-)
ReplyDeleteEJ- Great choice and perfect description. :) ~L
DeleteAw, amazing post :) Thank you for sharing. <3 I loved ET. Although it's been forever since I saw it (A) need to re-watch it :D And The Flintsones is awesome! Been years since I watched it, but I used to love it ;p
ReplyDeleteCarina- Glad to bring the past back. :) ET and the Flinstones are just so fun! ~L
DeleteI am not sure how I feel about aliens...wasn't Mork from Mork and Mindy an alien?
ReplyDeletePatty- Mork from Ork was an alien! :) He was a funny one! ~L
DeleteGreat post, thanks for sharing! Love some of the aliens but not all, lol!
ReplyDelete~Nas~
Romance Reader- Glad you enjoyed the post. I agree- some aliens are better than others. :) ~L
DeleteHow fun, Gazoo ~ I love him! ET is great too. I actually met someone the other day that didn't like ET! I know, I can't believe it either :)
ReplyDeletePaul R. Hewlett
Paul- I am stunned that you met someone who didn't like ET! He is so cute. :) And the movie is great! ~L
DeleteI love the Flintstones and Gazoo! Gazoo is so funny. Especially when paired with Fred and Barney! We still watch. Howz about the Jetsons? I love them! Although they really aren't aliens, but I could live like they do. *waving*
ReplyDeleteRobyn- I love the Jetsons, too! They have lots of aliens around them. :) Thanks for stopping by. Great to hear from you! ~L
DeleteI'd forgotten about Gazoo!!! He's awesome! And ET is total awesomeness too! :)
ReplyDeleteMy copy of Breadcrumbs arrived today and I'm 3/4 of the way done!! What a beautifully written book - the voice and style are are wonderful!
Jemi- So happy we reminded you of Gazoo! :)
DeleteGlad to hear that Breadcrumbs arrived and you are already 3/4 done! Wow! I love the writing style! ~L
I grew up on the Flintstones, but can you believe I've never seen E.T.? Someday, I'd better catch up!
ReplyDeleteJoanne- I can't believe that you have never seen ET! Wow! I think you should watch it asap. :) ~L
DeleteI love ET--he's definitely my favorite alien :) I haven't watched much of the Flintstones, though Gazoo looks really familiar. One of these days I'll have to check that out!
ReplyDeleteMeradeth- ET is awesome! You definitely need to watch the Flinstones soon! :) ~L
DeleteWe had to banish ET from out house! i know...can you believe it? my son was afraid of everything...he laughs about it now.
ReplyDeleteAnnmarie- I can understand finding ET to be a bit scary. I know a lot of people think the opening is spooky. :) ~L
DeleteI loved ET, I cannot believe I never showed the movie to my daughter.... should rectify this weekend ;)
ReplyDeleteWolfswanl- I hope you get to watch ET with your daughter soon. That will be fun! ~L
DeleteWe have two long weekends coming up, I am planning a popcorn evening with her :)
DeleteWhat is that alien with the ray gun that's with the same crowd as Bugs Bunny? Marvin the Martian! He was the only alien I could think of. I never really watched Flintstones and I never did watch E.T. even if my brother was supposedly a big fan. I think my mother assumed I have because if one of us saw it means all of us must have seen it too :P
ReplyDeleteGazoo sounds like a good guy and looks it too. I'm assuming a little excitement doesn't mean too much trouble for them.
Adriana- I had forgotten about Marvin until I read these comments. How interesting that you haven't watched the Flinstones or ET. Hope you get to check them out soon. :) ~L
DeleteI had forgotten all about Gazoo - he was a great little alien.
ReplyDeleteBarbara- Yes, he was! :) ~L
DeleteGrowing up, I loved E.T. As a grown-up, I'd choose the handsome Daemon Black from The Lux Series by JLA. Yummy! :)
ReplyDeleteA Belle's Tale- Love all your choices. :) Thanks for sharing! ~L
DeleteHeidi- Great choice! I forgot about ALF! lol. :) ~L
