Ancient Aliens Debunked is a 3 hour refutation of the theories proposed on the History Channel series Ancient Aliens. It is essentially a point by point critique of the "ancient astronaut theory" which has been proposed by people like Erich von Däniken and Zecharia Sitchin as well as many others. The film covers topics like: Ancient building sites: Puma Punku, The Pyramids, Baalbek, Incan sites, And Easter Island. Ancient artifacts: Pacal's rocket, the Nazca lines, the Tolima "fighter jets", the Egyptian "light bulb", Ufo's in ancient art, and the crystal skulls. Ancient text issues: Ezekiel's wheel, Ancient nuclear warfare, Vimana's, the Anunnaki, and the Nephilim.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

Garbage. You cannot debunk Ancient Aliens, all you can do is disagree with them & only believe the mainstream theories that have been accepted for years, which is bullshit. Of course AA wants you to believe everything is Aliens, but anyone with half a brain can figure out what to take them serious on, and what not to. In many episodes,you can absolutely see there was Alien intervention, it's obvious, unless you are in denial. Not because they said so, but because there was real evidence long before AA existed. It must take someone with no life whatsoever, to waste time making this debunking film. These so called filmmakers are not intelligent. Get a life.

This is an incredibly thorough analysis of the History Channels productions about Ancient Aliens one might find.The 190 minutes cover many of the "Ancient Aliens" claims, literally one after the other, explaining the scientific and technical faults and distortions, so much so that it appears that the "Ancient Aliens" claims are beyond lack of understanding, becoming so laughable than it appears that many claims are outright lies to support their presuppositions! This clearly makes the "Ancient Aliens" productions by the History Channel a laughable menagerie of silliness. A true embarrassment to the credibility of the History Channel!

The delivery of the audio speech is quite boring, honestly, but the data and debunking are on point, which is what matters in this age of countering so much B.S.The diagrams and pictures of ancient manuscripts are very well thought-out and the author's writing in the script reads like a quality research paper. Well done, Sir, I salute you!Keep up the good debunking work, may we ever seek the truth, though it is most often shrouded.~ Everett from Seattle, Washington, USA

Watching Ancient Aliens Debunked, the 2012 response to the popular series about the "ancient astronaut theory", is like visiting a Wikipedia page for a paper. As actual scientific inquiry, it doesn't fully hold up, but the film does a really good job at supplying you with the proper resources and directions you need to do your own research, or entertain you if you just want to see some decent bashing of the popular series.As the latter, it's not that spectacular for the full three hours. It's a long sit, and although some sections hold up fine as pieces of documentary, watching the whole thing in one go does get pretty boring. It seems unfair to judge it for this, however, because unlike Ancient Aliens itself, it is nobly devoted to the truth, boring as it may be.What does seem fair to judge it on, is its bias towards some Christian beliefs, in the sections about ancient texts on great floods and the nephilim, and its making the same argumentative mistakes as Ancient Aliens itself. In these sections, producer and narrator Chris White spills a lot of the credibility he built up in the preceding hours. He compensates this well by encouraging viewers to do their own research and form their own opinions. As is stressed in the film, one should only accept authority if what the authority says is true can in principle be discovered to be true. This is what ultimately makes the project worthwhile, although showing from the continued existence (and popularity) of the Ancient Aliens series, much work remains to be done...
