Alien
It’s important to start big, and it’s hard to think of any sci-fi that’s not been influenced by Alien since its release in 1979. The crew of the Nostromo are almost the definition of a perfect crew. It’s a proper working ship, and everyone onboard is there because of the job they do. They have to work together and get on as well as possible for the good of the ship or mission at hand. There are alliances and irritations, even before the titular alien shows ups and really starts testing those relationships, as well as the ship’s actual integrity. Would like to think I’m Ripley, but I’m probably John Hurt’s unfortunate Kane.
