Which is better: Alien or Aliens?

[Lukcydog]

It's killed the myth of the story really.

LOL, EXACTLY!

RIP big man.

Still think Aliens is superior due to its sheer cinematic escapism, action and memorable one liners.
I simply want to see it more.

Man such a tough one, I would have to go with Aliens as it has a bit more action and that final scene when Ripley fights the xeno just tops off a brilliant movie.

It must have been the sequel but when one of the Alien movies was showing in the cinema many went in with little kids thinking it was something similar to ET Man were they shocked.

So who actually has seen the original art which inspired alien(s) as it is today?

The fight in the robot thing, classic. I enjoyed Alien but it's real slow.

Love both but Alien (directors cut) is a better story.

Also side note,

They did not tell the most of cast how that scene was going to go down...

I realised now that people are afraid of aliens because they think that aliens will treat humans the same way that humans treat animals.

Prometheus was not bad. I've watched it a few times, but Covenant was complete garbage...

Prometheus was horrific in terms of characters making stupid and unrealistic decisions.

Yup, HR Giger was a twisted genius.

James Cameron Aliens hands down def the better one.

That final scene with the queen fighting Ripley in the robo-suit has got to tip it to Aliens.

 

[Spizz]

Nice necro. Time for a rewatch of both (and possibly3) I reckon.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Alien = Aliens. Both ahead of their time and great in different ways.
Alien 3
Prometheus
Alien Resurrection

The less said about Covenant and Romulus the better...

 

[spiff]

I still watch the Alien movies. The props / stunts were damn good!

 

[Werner1975]

Aliens by a ball hair. I love both.
