Did quite poor with this one, shows that there are a lot of films I've yet to see. Also 29 is stupidly familiar, but I can't put my finger on it.

Some of them are a little harsh (Movie A rather than Movie A 2, or Subtitle B rather than Franchise B: The Subtitle) but I suppose once you've got it you just have to throw titles at it until it sticks.

Got 11 so far, which is pretty good for my level of film knowledge.

#29 is based on a book and is generally considered a terrible adaptation.

See #8. That's obviously an Alien alien (mostly) but I couldn't get it.

I'd be interested to see if anyone can get #6. It's an unusual and surprisingly good film.

It doesn't ring any bells for me. 12 does, but I've no idea what it is.
Edit: and 28.

#6 - The actor in the image is a very famous musician with a long career. Although even if you can work out who he is I doubt anyone will know the film
#12 - A bad 80s film and a I think the first major role for Jim Carrey.
#28 - I'm sure I've seen this film and that alien is a fake (in the plot of the film, it's obviously not a real alien), but I can't remember which film.

I got 8 with a bit of trial and error with the spellings. It's

19 should be easy as well if you haven't got it already. It's a spoof film. The scene in that picture is from a movie on the list (it's direct sequel is also on the list).

I got 6 straight away, it's a favourite of mine. Great film about how us bungling humans ruin everything.

Me too, it's one of those hidden gems of sci-fi I'm finding very hard to find these days. I love that the alien parts are still very alien, not cliched, even several decades after it was released.

Woo! I'm loving these. 29 isn't an alien though, it's a very mutated human if memory serves.

God damn, 1 and 20 are so familiar it's driving me nuts, and 14 is pretty familiar too.

EDIT: After looking at everyone else's answers I've seen 1 but not 20, so it must not have been so familiar after all.

These were my original answers, plus #9 as I know the alien in the image but it won't accept my answer. It's definitely

Spoiler:

, I looked it up on Google image search.

The aliens in #14 are sampling a hotdog. One eats, they all taste it. They are confused it contains no dog. I know that film a little too well.

Just for reference like, but the answers (and spelling variations) are actually available in the page's source code. It'll spoil it though.

Opps, spoiler tag doesn't work for the moment.
