alien 3 assembly/directors
alien resurrection doesn't really make a difference

Alien is one of the movie with a superior Theatrical Cut. Can't comment on the others because those movies are shit.
>>
>>67006940
Director's Cut
Special Edition (it's excellent and has robot turrets)
Don't watch it unless you are really bored, even Fincher himself has disowned it. It's a deeply flawed mess. It wasn't his fault he wasn't a big name yet and he had massive studio interference.
Don't watch it ever, for any reason.
>>
>>67006940
If you don't watch a theatrical cut first you wont appreciate the Directors/Special Edition/or Extended cuts.

Always go with theatrical first then watch the better version.
>>
>>67006958
The Directors Cut of Aliens is overly long garbage.
>>
Theatrical. If you watch aliens and alien 3 watch the directors cuts though

Alien: The "Director's Cut" is more like an alternative version than a definitive cut. They're both pretty interesting and certain parts in the newer cut actually make the sequels pretty much non-canon. It's also a bit shorter than the theatrical version, because it cuts down a lot of the atmospheric tracking shots and such.

Aliens: Theatrical cut all the way. The special edition makes the movie extremely flabby and the added scenes are downright insulting at times. It's basically a bunch of shit that nobody needed and even destroy the original cut's tension, like several scenes showing the colony shortly before it gets run over by the aliens.

Alien 3: I prefer the theatrical version, because the pacing is much better, but the assembly cut is a more rounded movie that makes quite a bit more sense overall. The former is basically a moody thriller and the latter is more like a dark drama with thriller elements.

Alien Resurrection: Theatrical. The special edition adds absolutely nothing of value to the movie, except maybe the different ending.

What the hell? Why did the they put eyes on the alien?
>>
>>67007626
They didn't.
>>
>>67007686
they did, fuck face. god damn, you suck,
>>
>>67007626
I think it's face spikes, you're just looking at them head-on so they look like eyes.
>>
>>67007626
>>67007707
Those are teeth because it's host was Baraka and not a human. It also has arm blades.

Alien: Theatrical
Aliens: Theatrical
Alien 3: Neither is perfect. This needs a fan edit taking the best from both.
Alien Resurrection: Who cares?
>>
>>67007777
So if it doesn't have eyes what popped in his head then?

Theatrical, even Ridley Scott considers the Director's Cut inferior

>Aliens
Special Edition

>Alien 3
The assembly cut. There is no director's cut of Alien 3.

>Alien Resurrection
Either. Or better yet, neither.
>>
>>67006940
>alien
theatrical. DC adds nothing of value
>aliens
director's cut. But skip the colonist family scene if you can. It's cheese and gay
>alien3
theatrical. Fuck the assembly cut; it's a castrated piece of shit that meanders too much in the middle and solves a plothole that you don't give a fuck about anyway
>alien:r
haven't a clue

Christ I stopped playing after the 4th one, what did I miss?
>>
>>67008921
Leatherface, Jason Voorhees, Xenomorph and Predator in the latest game.

The last game had Freddy Kruger
>>
Aliens special edition, it noticeably improves the film and makes it a better overall experience.
>>
>>67008921
It went to shit with Warner Bros taking over and forcing all their shitty movie characters into the game as guests.
>>
The Alien Resurrection game was better than either version of the movie
>>
>>67008011

This guy gets it.
>>
>>67009081
Predator and Alien are Fox.
>>
>>67009496
Yeah I don't really understand it but WB owns MK now so they're ultimately behind it. Fox probably paid them to include them.
>>
>>67009496
And Jason went back to Paramount in 2013. Leatherface is currently with Lionsgate.

Freddy and the Injustice games are the only WB crossovers
>>
>>67007017


Hello me.

>Not including Prometheus

Good. It was shit.
