I will say though, I did see Aliens on opening night in a huge, packed theater in Manhattan. That was a movie-going experience that I'll never forget. Everyone all cheering and shouting at the screen. Especially when Paul Reiser's character got waxed by the aliens.
I realize I'm in the minority in saying this, but I even loved Alien3 because I realized that each of these 3 movies is thematically very different. Just as the first film was a horror film and the second was an action film, the third was a drama about Ripley's relationship to the aliens and how this has come to define who she is. I enjoyed how the alien growing inside her was metaphorically presented as being analogous to cancer and how she is pulled between just wanting to end her life and her instinct to try and survive if even just for another day.

Makes you wonder what could have been if they had let Fincher make the movie he wanted to make.
But it's a horrible action flick and probably the worst sci-fi/horror film ever made ever.
That's a size-ably retarded statement considering the likes of "Battlefield Earth", anything ever created by Uwe Bol and the entire Critters franchise.
Starship Troopers is a piece of B-movie exploitation art. And Michael Ironside scowls a lot.

Aliens is dumb action fare. Ok, good dumb action fare, but nowhere near the quality as a film of the original.
I see what you did there.

And murdered it.
There is no Alien 4.

Well good thing that it's a comedy and not either of those other things then huh?
