With “The Dog Stars” now in theaters, Ridley Scott is back in the sci-fi world that has defined so much of his legendary career. The post-apocalyptic thriller marks the director’s latest movie, but it’s his next potential return to the “Alien” universe that has really caught my attention. Scott recently confirmed that an “Alien: Covenant” sequel is in development, with Michael Fassbender’s David set to return and continue the story left hanging in 2017.For me, there couldn’t be a better time to look back at Scott’s incredible filmography. He’s directed everything from sweeping historical epics and gritty crime dramas to some of the most influential science-fiction movies ever made. But there’s one film that will always stand above the rest for me. Scott directed my favorite film ever made, and it’s also the movie that sparked my love for one of the greatest sci-fi franchises of all time (probably an easy guess).So, I’ve had the difficult task of ranking just seven of Ridley Scott’s best movies (he's directed 28 feature films). And while there are plenty of classics to choose from, No. 1 was never really in doubt.7. ‘Thelma & Louise’ (1991)
