Just held me own little Alien Marathon to get back up to date of these movies. The biggest thought after watching them was...
ALIEN 3:
What a total piece of fucking shit. I hate this fucking movie.,
I mean if the movie was a standalone film about a bunch of prison inmates trying to kill an alien the it would have been fine. The movie itself was well made with strong charcters and all. But it was not a standalone film. It was an addition to an amazing film franchise.
In the first fil we are intoduced to this creature.
In the second the ecology of the creature is explained and see many many of the incluidng the queen. The character of Ripley transcends an interesting an pertinent story arc.
Then in the 3rd we are back to one alien again. What the fuck. Almost no new information is discovered (aside from the fact that the alien adapts certain featrues from its host like the dog alien).
More then anything, the worst part of alien 3 is the first 5 minutes where they offhandedly mention that Hics, Newt, and Bishop are dead. All the charcters that went through hell to survive the last movie a just dead. The entire last half of Aliens is Ripley going inot the Queens lair and resuing Newt. All that menas shit though as Newt is killed in crash landing. What a fucking disgrace. And then to top it all offf, they kill ripley at the end. GARBAGE.
But the other thought I have from these movies is that ALIENS is the shit
