    my fave : Alien 2



    and c'mon folks, AvP wasn't that bad...
    OK the story left to be desired, but the acting & FX were more than honorable
    and the games (which predate the movie) are quite good
    (though I was a little disappointed by AvP2. AvP1 is the better of the two, even if the graphics are a tad dated by now -)

      Aliens is by far the best, then Alien.

      The others don't exist as far as i'm concerned.

        Check out this Batman short that's eight minutes long: Batman: Dead End

        Watch out for the twist three minutes into the movie as it relates to this discussion.

          My favourite is AVP
          Science Fiction is an existential metaphor; it allows us to tell stories about the human condition.

          Isaac Asimov once said individual science fiction stories may seem as trivial as ever to the blinder critics and philosophers of today, but the core of science fiction, its essence has become crucial to our salvation if we are to be saved at all.

            BAD:
            Alien 3
            Alien Resurrection
            WHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAT?????!!?

            AVP is no where as good as Alien 3!!!! AVP is more like a spin-off movie with Alien Resurrection, damn it! And can only be seen as good if your brain is completely switched off....like mine was at the time.

                  The movie effectively said, "Sorry folks, Aliens never happened," because the movie might as well began with the shuttle from the first movie.

                  AVP is more like a spin-off movie...
                  It isn't like, it is! However, the discussion is including all Alien films, not just the main series.

                  And can only be seen as good if your brain is completely switched off....like mine was at the time.
                  I don't switch my brain off. I acknowledge the flaws and look past them to enjoy the movie.

                  I'm sorry, but I take offense to this. Christians don't act like that. I'm not angry with you, but could you avoid this kind of joke in the future? Thanks.

                    Aliens Vs. Predator was a neat movie. The pyramid was cool, and it's definitely a change from the rest of the alien movies.

                    Alien resurrection is alo a favorite of mine, too.

                    Alien 3 is not a favorite, but it's tolerable.

                      Never seen The Exorcist, have you?

                      edit; Or, come to think of it, the Family Guy scene that parodied The Exorcist.

                        Nope. I don't watch movies that deal with demonic posession. I don't watch Family Guy either, the humor is too obscene.

                        Did anyone watch the Batman: Dead End movie I liked to?

                          Family guy is brilliant because it can take the most serious and emotional piece of drama and turn it into something completely hilarious and different.
                          I'm not a big fan of things to do with demonic possession (I couldnt take the Exorcist seriously........at all, lol ah well) but I do love films to do with hell like Hellraiser, The Devil's Advocate and others - EVIL DEAD 3 ROCKS!!!!

                            Family Guy? Serious? Emotional? Did I just read those three things together?

                                No it isn't.
