Given that Dungeons & Dragons is the source of most of the monster references in Stranger Things lore, the "bats" in season 4 were much more likely to have been inspired by stirges, a blood-sucking bat-like swarming creature that has appeared in several iterations of the game. Unless someone can provide a reference showing the creators or writers were intentionally invoking a reference to "alien space bats", I'd recommend that reference be deleted. 97.102.30.205 ( talk) 21:32, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
Should the last Indiana Jones movie be added to "in popular culture"? This sentence from the article made me think so: "Examples include changes to the physical laws of nature, introducing magic into the world, time travel, and advanced aliens interfering in human affairs."

I found what might be the actual post where Brooks invented the term [1]. It fits the description of the current cite on the article, but appear relatively early. Can anyone confirm? Zombie Hunter Smurf ( talk) 20:40, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
I think there are only two things that need to be done in order to reach B class:
This article seems to meet all the other B class criteria. -- Imperator3733 ( talk) 14:38, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
Is there any relation between these two terms? It seems like the term moonbat is generally used as an insult to imply that the accused is making things up or living in a fantasy world. 24.58.37.208 ( talk) 18:17, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
Check these articles out: [2] and [3]. Not sure if its notable to this article, but... Zombie Hunter Smurf ( talk) 02:57, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
Perhaps the Ilium / Olympos series of Dan Simmons could be considerd a prime example of the Alien space bats? As these books of Dan Simmons contains time travels of historical groups to alternative realities. This results in superhumans ("Gods") from millennia in the future, interfering with the Trojan Wars of ancient Greek folklore. And if this was not enough, there was also the introduction of artificial intelligent robots, operating autonomous without any connection to their superhuman creators, and independantly entering the time divergence, thus appearing in the Trojan Wars as well. Now, I won't spoil too much of the story, but other similar events will unfold during the series.
Now, Perhaps I didn't quite grasp the true essence of Alien space bats, but I think the above storyline could fit within the frame of Alien space bats. If this opinion is shared with fellow wikipedians, than it may be a good idea to mention the Ilium/Olympos series in the main article of these "strange chiropterans from the eternal aether" (those freakin' Space Bats to be precise).

This MIGHT not be the right place to do this... BUT... If I were to make a wiki page about alien space bats i would include information about the movie 'Lifeforce'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.38.143.91 ( talk) 04:16, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
... in science fiction, rather than the usual 'humanoids, energy fields, blob creatures and robots/cyborgs'? Jackiespeel ( talk) 17:28, 21 July 2014 (UTC)
