How can you return to having a terrifying lone wolf predator when Aliens made them space ants that even in swarms can be gunned down?

>Aliens not being the best movie in the franchise meme
It's getting harder and harder to tell the difference between impressionable faggots that actually got tricked into believing this meme and autists who kept trying to spread it.
>>68753903
Aliens is the alternative universe.
Prometheus was a return to form, and all the 80s fags with their avp t-shirts and Bill Paxton beanies got butthurt it wasn't a dumb space shooter with bastardizations of Giger's designs.
>>68753919
Aliens is the resident evil 4 of movies.
Good movie by itself but destroyed the franchise and turned it into something so shitty that it will never recover.
Actors are not Producers.
This is just another "Gib Work Pls" plea like Karl Urban and his Dredd sequel.
>>68753961
Fuck off you stupid prick. Tell me, what was your favourite set in Aliens? The cheaply-made steel corridor where the soldier guy quipped? Or the other cheaply-made steel corridor where the soldier man quipped?
>>68753919
Alien killed the "lone wolf" aspect, not Aliens.
About the only thing you can reasonably do now is run with the "hive" aspect created in Aliens, and have those fuckers invade Earth and absolutely wreck shit.
>Sigourney Weaver will never milk you dry
>>68753961
Bet you think the Alien queen is a great design too, eh? You tasteless cunt.
>>68754087
>milk you dry
that would be extremely painful
>>68753961
"Aliens is good" is the meme. Aliens is trash. Alien didn't need a sequel, especially not a dumb action-oriented sequel full of genre tropes and dumb humour.
>>68754046
That sounds like a bigger indulgence in bloated cgi fight scenes than a fucking 40K movie.
>>68753961
>>68754135
jeez both Alien and Aliens are too complete different genre based sci fi films. You cannot argue over what one is better.
For me: Alien is a 10/10 horror whilst Aliens is a 10/10 action/adventure
End of argument

That's what they'd turn it into, of course, but it needn't be made that way.

You are the cancer that destroyed this place and is now proceeding to destroy humanity. Everything you touch, is shit. YOU are shit. Everything you will ever amount to, everybody you will ever know and everything you will ever do, will be shit.
You rob everything of its integrity and you spew your "buzzwords" as though they're gospel. You brag about accomplishments that aren't yours to what passes for your "friends" and they reward you with empty applause. Empty. Like everything else in your life. You have never possessed one ounce of dignity, honor or self-respect. Others do not respect you. In all likelihood they will NEVER respect you.
I do not wish death upon the likes of you. I do not wish for you to end your vapid, hollow existence. Instead, I revel in the knowledge that, with each year that passes, you will descend more and more into the despair and depression that will inevitably follow your teenagehood. I wish I could be there to see the look on your face as the revelation hit you. The revelation that you are nothing and always have BEEN nothing. I wish I could be there to tell you, "I told you so" with a wry smile on my face.
That this will never happen, is my only regret. Enjoy what passes for your life, child, because in a few years when adulthood hits you with full-force, you will not even be REMOTELY prepared for it.
>>68754195
Expect one has an objective superiority in terms of props, sets, cinematography, monster design, and writing. But yes, must be judged differently because genre.

If Aliens is a 5/10 then there are no 10/10 action films.
Alien is a great thriller/slasher, Aliens is a stellar action movie.
:/ this is the alien3 troll i've seen going around
>>68754827
>Prometheus 8/10
Should have put this first so people can disregard your worthless opinion instantly.
>>68754912
Fuck off kid its a shit action film the bugs get cut down too early and even cameron reused bullet shots.
>>68754827
Aliens is a good movie, it's just not as good as Alien.
Alien: 10/10
Aliens: 8/10
Alien 3: 6/10
Alien Resurrection: 4/10
AVP: 2/10
AVP Requiem: 1/10
Prometheus: 4/10
>>68754912
Aliens is shit scifi and alien is primo kino
I had faith that Sig-Sig Sputnik wouldn't stand for any stupid shit when it comes to Alien, but she was in Resurrection so I'm not sure if even she is the best judge of the series' future.
It might be interesting, but how many times is the story going to change? Hicks died, Newt died, Ripley died and for some reason a fucked up xeno-nympho clone ran around for a while in a shitty movie.
I just don't want it to fucking suck, and there's no way to make it fit neatly into the story of the previous movies.
>>68754906
Good.
>>68754942
>kid
Disregarding action because it's beneath you is the epitome of fedora tipping.
It's not a 5/10 because Cameron may or may not have reused a shot, which you only noticed after somebody on the internet pointed it out to you.
>>68754979
alien is shitty slasher and aliens is supreme cinematism.
>>68754972
Prometheus is better than alien 3.
AVP was better than resurrection.
I'd say alien was 9/10, but whatever
>>68754932
Prometheus: Theatrical version is a 5/10
Prometheus: Extended version is a 7/10
>>68755000
There is nothing memorable about Aliens besides quips. Everything else is subpar even for an action film. Predator preformed the "squad of badasses get in over their heads" one million times more competently than Jimmy Camera ever could.
>>68755036
>Prometheus is better than alien 3.
Not even close. I always loved re watching parts of Alien 3 back in the day whereas not once have I bothered with re watching anything from Prometheus.
I haven't even bought the freakin Blu Ray.
>>68755000
The action is shitty and it wasn't scary. The aliens got mowed down. Best shot is in the sewer with newt and the alien coming out if the water. But the bitch shouls have been dead right there. Imersion ruined shitty 5/10 flick for the sake of being a sequel.
>>68754827

>Aliens director cut better than the theatrical version
>>68754500
Fucking plebs
>>68755000
I'm not disregarding action I gave it a 5/10 there's nothing special or technically well done in terms of action. Fast and the furious movies are 1/10 action films. Aliens is better than that but still not good.
>>68754972
Entire post smell of pretentiousness. If you dislike good sci-fi action movies so much you should stay away from them entirely.
Alien 8/10

Alien Resurrection 3/10
AVP 7/10
AVP Requiem 3/10

fuck you that's a 6.5/10 in my opinion.

>>68755223

>nothing technically well done
It's a marvel of special effects and design. Very few movies come close.
>>68755229
Really can you explain how a 10/10 film letalone s 10/10 alien film has a little girl shown to be utterly fucked by an alien in close quarters in water yet she's a ok. What the fuck. Aliens is fucking stupid
>there are people on this board that are contrarian enough to say Alien 3 is a good film and better than Aliens
>>68755230
Aliens having to spend more time watching that travesty is a negative off the fucking bat. It was bad when I saw it in theaters, and no bullshit special edition will change that.
>>68755090
>There is nothing memorable about Aliens besides quips.

I'm not saying it was all good, but certainly memorable
>>68755316
It doesn't add more action. It adds more downtime and character moments.
>>68753778
Why can't they make a new movie without Ripley?
>>68755301
That's laughable and why did newt survive this bullshit >>68755310
>>68755333
Explain newt not getting raped in the water
>>68755230
Most of the added scenes in the director's cut add nothing but filler to the movie and slow it down even more. Cameron tried to make the first half of Aliens to be like Alien then the second half is all action; it just doesn't flow well.
>>68754994
>and there's no way to make it fit neatly into the story of the previous movies.
Thats because, in reality, the series should have ended with Alien 3.
Alien : Res is pure and utter shite that should never have been made.
>>68755315
>People on this board think james cameron has made good films besides the terminator and the abyss
>>68755315
Assembly Cut is good, theatrical is mediocre. I agree that thinking it's better than Aliens is contrarian horseshit.
>>68755392
because weaver believes the aliens films are more about ripley than anything, so therefore she has to be in them...
>>68755090
>There is nothing memorable about Aliens
Holy shit, you can't be serious.
>>68755315
But duuude Fincher and Mann are the greatest auteurs of our tiiiime.
>>68755401
>Character development and atmosphere is filler
I bet you check your phone every 15 minutes during a movie.
Notice how whenever people describe Alien and Aliens for the former they agree it's a great movie and then the latter they say it's a 10/10 action movie.
Doesn't the fact that you have to rate it within a genre show which is obviously superior.
>>68755537
>Mann
>mfw autists on here actually try to claim that Blackhat is good
>>68755563
I'm just saying Aliens is poorly paced and the added scenes in the director's cut aren't worth it. You get everything you need from the theatrical version. Either way, I rated Aliens as 8/10 in >>68754972
>>68755537

Ah right, you only remember the quips...I'm gonna guess you're fave movies are the Avengers movies then, that would explain a lot.
Can't get enough of them quips.
But no, you have to be a complete gormless mong to not recognise that Aliens does have a lot of memorable stuff.
Is there nobody left that enjoys Alien, Aliens and Alien 3 all together ?

Not even remotely correct, everyone went expecting the story of how the Space-Jockey got there and were massively blue-balled,and also let down because the Space-Jockey turns out to be some high-poly render of something from an Eiffel 65 music video.
Video related, the inspiration for the Space Jockey reveal:

objectively true
>>68756002
>Was District 9 really just some big fluke?
Elysium and Chappie proved that to be the case.
I've seen
Alien about 20-30 times
Aliens 60 times
terminator 120+ or something, for some reason I've been rewatching it every now and then for the past 20 years. There's something mezmerizing.
Terminator 2 70

I mean a decade ago maybe
Sigourney is way too old now
>>68755310
She is relatively small girl, and used to play hide-and-seek (and she was really good at it) in tight vents.
So she hid until xenomorphs went dormant in their warm and comfy lair.
Also, if we keep in mind theory that aliens are living weapons designed to kill sentient beings, leaving one offspring alive to lure more prey is sensible strategy.
>>68755393
If i remember correctly, she was kidnapped by drone who rose from the water.

Both Alien and T1 are good (but obviously not great) sci-fi horror movies.
Both Aliens and T2 are best sci-fi action movies.
>>68754827
You forgot AvP 2
Reminder that Aliens is a worse version of Predator.
