WHAT? NOT GONNA MENTION ALIEN VERSUS PREDATOR? I AM DISSAPOINT.

Watching Aliens again makes me think you don't really argue with James Cameron about the movie he wants to make either. Game over, man. Game over.

Sara Mirk got face raped? Ewww.

Jean-Pierre Jeunet should've directed "Prometheus" so Audrey Tautou could have been in it and so we could blame the French.

Who the Hell wouldn't have seen both Alien AND Aliens by now?!

DamosA - Exactly. And who would read anything written by such a person.

Reasons why I hadn't seen Alien: I don't like scary movies. I don't like most science fiction movies. I assumed it would probably be dumb, like most scary science fiction movies.

Anyway, I was wrong.

Glad you like it Sarah, but you really should see the new film. I disagree with your assertion that "scary science fiction movies are dumb", but you are entitiled to your opinion. I would recommend you see the 2nd and 3rd films in the series as it is worth while. I also recommend Phase IV (not related at all) as it is excellent science fiction and only "scary" in terms of possibility. I personally liked Alien Vs Predator, even though my gf at the time wouldn't let me rent it,lol

Showstopper, I can't believe you honestly recommended Phase IV to someone! For one, it means you have discerning taste. Two, the movie does many interesting things but is unfortunately not that great.

But! It is the only movie directed by noted film graphic designer Saul Bass -- that is important! The synthesizer score is very cool and ominous in a way that you don't hear in contemporary movies (except maybe say, Cliff Martinez with Solaris and Drive). It is hallucinatory and boring but remains a film of interest to me. I have FEELINGS about this Phase IV.

Please wait...
