Which alien movie is most popular in YOUR state?
Alien: Covenant is number one at the US box office right now, proving that extra-terrestrials are as popular as ever with Americans. Inspired by the film’s success, the website Decluttr set out to answer a question that I’m not sure anyone has ever thought to ask before: Which alien-centric movie does each state love the most?
How do you answer such a question? I’ll let them explain…
We decided to take 50 of the most popular alien movies of all time and run them against Google Search Data to determine which has received the most searches in each state.
And the results, you ask?
The most popular alien movie in America, according to Google, is last year’s Arrival. It came out on top in Alaska, Colorado, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Washington and Wyoming. In second place is another recent movie: Star Trek Beyond. The third movie in the new series was searched for most in Alabama, Maine, North Carolina, Virginia and Wisconsin. The original Alien is joint third with four states: Georgia, Illinois, Michigan and New York. Joining it in third is 2015’s surprise hit 10 Cloverfield Lane, which topped searches in Idaho, Kansas, New Hampshire and West Virginia.
