Good picks. I'm a fairly big fan of the Alien franchise as well... although I still hold a grudge against Alien 3 for undermining Aliens. One of the very very rare sequel grudges I actually have. But while the fourth film wasn't a cinematic masterpiece, I found it to be loads of fun. The cast was spectacular, and it had a lot of little nods to the first two films, including camera work and shots. While Prometheus has some ridiculous stuff in it, I found the film overall to be quite enjoyable as well. |
I like Alien Resurrection, and can't get why people don't like it. AR is the funnest Alien movie out there, and had plenty of action. I liked the prequels as well with Covenant and Prometheus. But they were different, seemed like these sci-fi movies that had that vast backdrop that wanted you to open your mind up to a bunch of weird stuff that the universe had that we don't know about. And this newest one looks cool, more like the original Alien with the horror emphasis. Yes, i think it will be delightfully bloody. Mabey i'll see a facehugger pulling a severed head or something tacky like that.
