UMMMM TERMINATOR 1 WAS THE BEST MOVIE EVER, naw jk senpai

>tfw 3 and resurrection were both better than aliens

>3
yes
>resurrection
absolutely not, except for the parts with Brad Dourif

Objectively wrong.

>tfw NB will make A3 non canon in your lifetime

let me guess, you watch superhero movies, right?

There will be a panel about Aliens on comic con. Jim Cameron will be there as well as most of the main cast. They will be talking about Blomkamp's movie as well. It's gonna be on saturday.

I don't think small soldiers came out 30 years ago

>July 13th, 1986

good times. i am probably biased, but yeah, 10/10, one of the best movies ever.

Alien: 10/10
Aliens: 10/10
Alien 3: 7/10
Alien Resurrection: 3/10
Haven't seen Prometheus yet

>maxresdefault
Never heard of it and this is suppose to be the best movie of all times?

is there a fan cut that includes the subplot about ripley's daughter and the sentry guns scenes from the special edition but cuts out special edition scenes on Hadley's Hope prior to the marines landing? that would be the ideal cut of the movie

Alien: 8/10
Aliens: 10/10
Alien 3: 2/10
Resurrection : 6/10
Prometheus: 7/10, GOAT movie to fall asleep to.

No, man, 2001: A Space Odyssey is older than that.

Hey user

you ever been mistaken for a man?

>Aliens ever being rated higher than Alien

>Aliens better than Alien
>Resurrection and Prometheus better than 3

you belong in a garbage can

But Conan the Barbarian is 34 years old!

T2 isnt 30 yet

>unironically liking 3
Come on user, explain yourself. Do you like that they had an awesome script and purged it for some pretentious bullshit? Or what about the part where they murder all the characters you love from aliens immediately? You must be young.

>Alien 3: 2/10
Have you seen the Assembly Cut?

No actually. I didn't even know that was a thing. I've only seen theatrical and heavily edited TV garbage. What makes it better?

Anniversary trivia for you.

Almost all marines have customized personal armor done by the actors. Except for Hicks because the actor Michael Biehn replaced James Remar after they already started shooting.
Anyway I' gonna list some of the most obscure ones:
>Hicks has a bullet hole on his right shoulder (visible in the pic) with the inscription "born again" (ironic considering Hicks is about to be "resurrected" in canon); he also has some Japanese kanji on the back and an inscription which says "lifer" suggesting military is all he has; he also has a tattoo of his marine serial number
>Dietrich has a "kamikaze" band around her right wrist
>Frost
>Vasquez has a barely visible teardrop tattoo under her right eye (and "VIVA" on her knuckles) the actress also tried (and failed) to draw a human skull on her t-shirt
>Hudson drew a calendar on his helmet (he was getting short)
>Wierzbowski has the unlucky "snake eyes" under his nameplate and a "spare weapon" inscription above his crotch

Too much shit to list

Some other stuff
>Apone, Gorman and Wierzbowski were all married characters
>almost all marines have the same first names as their actors with the exception of Hicks (Dwayne), Gorman (Scott) and Bishop although he's still listed as "L.Bishop" Lance is probably just his sqadron nickname or something
>the first dropship is named "Bug Stumper" while the second is "Smartass"
>5 marines die because of their own action (suicide or friendly fire), 2 get abducted, 4 die ripped apart by aliens and 2 survive

Actually, the best movie of all time is 29 years old.

Forgot Frost. He's got a sticker with a very telling "when in doubt nuke em" written on it.

But there's just too much to list.

1) which script are you referring to, the eric red one, the david twohy one, the william gibson one, or the vincent ward one?

2) how is the final movie more "pretentious" than whichever one you're talking about?

>Or what about the part where they murder all the characters you love from aliens immediately?

cruelly taking newt and hicks away from ripley at the start of the story was the right move, both thematically in a story about ripley alone, depressed, and at the end of her life, and in keeping with the unsentimental horror movie tone of the first movie rather than the rah-rah action blockbuster feel of Aliens.

YOU JUST KNOW

It wasn't the right move because they had no choice. At the end all aliens were killed and the colony was destroyed. In the first 2 minutes of aliens we discover that

1) there's still another egg appearing magically
2) some actors were unable to return

So it tells me that a sequel had to be made no matter what and that there were some problems with the production. Nothing about it seems like a conscious artistic choice. Just that they wanted another one so they had to make shit up even if it looks clumsy and doesn't make any sense. To finish the story they had to first "unfinish" it.

Alien: 9.5/10
Aliens: 9.5/10
Alien 3: 6/10
Alien Resurrection: 8/10
Prometheus: 1/10

>1) there's still another egg appearing magically

the queen was onboard the ship

>2) some actors were unable to return

over the years hicks was included in some scripts but not others (interestingly it was as the lead because they weren't sure if they could get weaver back), and if i'm remembering correctly, he wasn't in the vincent ward script that they started production with. biehn would have done it; they just didn't want hicks in the story. once weaver committed, they wanted ripley to be alone again.

Resurrection is WAY more the backtracking, cynical cash-grab you're making Alien 3 out to be considering they had to start out with the main character of the series fucking dead.

have you?

>implying a popcorn action flick is GOAT

That's not predator
Its nearly 30 years but not quite.

Tbh pick one:
>aliens
>predator

Oo...ahh...hmm...
Predator... Just

Good\ok films:

Horror: Alien>Alien3
Action: Aliens>Resurrection

Bad films:

Cashgrab: Prometheus

Not really worth a mention: AVP shit

Alien 3 is a great film, especially the assembly cut.

What the fuck kind of formatting is this?
Also how is Resurrection good in any way?

>Where's Bowski?
What did he mean by this?
