Another Alien thread

EDIT: Ahah! Found it! http://www.cracked.com/article_19697_6- ... sters.html

It's number four.

Instead of talking about the Newborn's mangina they could have mentioned it was supposed to be a giant flying Alien that sucked blood out of people.

Which is silly, because vampirism is a downgrade from face-hugging-chest-bursting-rape.

My rankings:

1. Alien 10/10
2. Aliens 9.5/10
3. Prometheus 9/10
4. Alien 3 Assembly Cut: 7/10 Theatrical: 5.5/10
5. Alien Resurrection 4/10

Really, really liked Prometheus. Can't wait for the Blu-ray.

Alien 3 is shit.

[Proofpoochie]

Alien 3 is shit.

Really? None of us knew that. *sarcasm*

[Hellspawn28]

Alien 3 is shit.

And yeah we get that you hate Alien 3. I still don't understand how someone could like Alien 3 over AVRP? At least Alien 3 had better lighting and had character development. AVPR just give us characters that where rip off from some Disney channel show (They where all from High School) and the other characters where just rip offs from the past movies (Like Kelly and Molly for example).

The AVP movies suck even worse than Resurrection.

Jesus. F'n. Christ.

Spritghiodrah, for the love of god, please, just Shut. The %^(&. Up.

I should have known this was coming..but *all* you ever say is "it sucks". How about elaborating for once? Is it really that hard to do? I swear, this has to be one of the most annoying things to me personally, in the history of my time here at TK.

Here's a question: If ALIEN 3 had sparkling vampires and ponies, would it be higher up on your list simply on the basis of that?

This is just so full of win.

Also, how someone can hate Alien 3 more than Resurrection or the AVP films is beyond me.

[Sydney Aradi]

I've never quite got the extreme amount hate for Alien Resurrection. While yes it's not as good as Alien & Aliens & to an extent Alien 3 and yeah it does plod on but I see it as a qulity pleasure.

[Hellspawn28]

I would have to agree since Resurrection does have some fun moments it and I do have a Nostalgia spot for it. The first AVP movie was boring and had nothing good to ofter other then the CG Queen and the temple setting. AVPR was a total mess and I just hate that film on every level (I rant enough about it already).

[Goji]

I don't "hate" RESURRECTION..I've actually warmed up to it a bit over the years. It's just such a jarring combination of black comedy/sc-fi, you can't help but at least try to have fun with it. It's also really pretty to look at. It's definitely a lot better than the wretched AvP films.

[wataru]

Resurrection has Ron Perlman in it.

It's automatically 9000x cooler then any other Alien entry.

/end truth

[Goji]

Ron's performance may just be the best thing about the film. So yeah, I'm with you on that one.

Though I have to ask, does "cooler"="better" in your eyes? Because there is no way in hell you're suggesting A:R is better than either ALIEN or ALIENS. You're not quite that insane.

I was being sarcastic. As I stated before, I prefer Aliens of the franchise.

I also have personal opinions and critical opinions. Im one of the few TK members who does so. But most people refuse to acknowledge a critical opinion because it clashes with their personal opinion. I personally love The Return of Swamp Thing so it gets a 5/5. But critically it's a 1/5.

[Goji]

I have a really hard time catching on to your brand of sarcasm, so you'll have to forgive me. Sometimes you do say some outlandish shit, and actually mean it, so I wouldn't have put it past you.

I understand the difference between, personal opinion/critical opinion, and used to approach some of the films I talked about that way, but..it seemed to confuse all the 13 year olds, so I just kind of stopped doing that.

"OMG DUDE, how could you give MEGALON 4 out 5 of stars?"

"Because I find it entertaining on that level. I don't think it's critically that good, however. Maybe a 1.5 out of 5"

"BUT IT'S SO BAD!"

[Malchik]

This franchise is actually pretty terrible with the exception of, like, two films. It's popularity lies in the fan-wank.

I haven't seen Prometheus yet.

Yeah sometimes Im a confusing yet deep individual.

To continue with the critical/person opinion review talk (thanks Wataru), Personally I'd give Gigli an 8/10 on terms of personal enjoyment but critically I'd give it a 6/10
