I was scrolling through the internet the other day and came across several lists that ranked the Alien franchise from best to worst.It had occurred to that these lists always come from casual fans,and that true fans seldomly get to share there opinion.So guys this is your chance rank the films according to how much you like them.The AVP's and Prometheus included.The Predator franchise is OPTIONAL,NOT REQUIRED.This is neutral territory,all opinions are welcome.

About Requiem,your definitely not missing anything lol.It can be good for a laugh but that's about it.There's a certain irony to watching it,i watched it about a month ago and had a good time ripping on it.It's pretty stupid lol.If you scroll through this list you'll see it has pretty much no fans.

@ninXeno426  Yeah I noticed that, haha. Yeah my brother had told me when it had come out how horrible it was. I've never been able to get myself to watch it, maybe one day like you said I will watch it just to have a good laugh.

I skipped it in theaters because i didn't like the first one that much.When you know it's bad then you can certainly have fun with it because there are zero expectations of quality.If you've seen Resident Evil Apocalypse,then you'll know what to expect.The plot is almost the same,they just replaced zombies and the Nemesis with Aliens and predator.

@ninXeno426  Never watched any of the Resident Evil movies but the first one, those never appealed to me. But yeah you can just tell a movie is gonna be bad sometimes, haha. I hear ya there.

They unfortunately share some of the same "talent."The guy who did the first AVP wrote and directed most of those movies.

Alien,Prometheus,Aliens, Aliens 3, AvP,Requiem

 

Honestly feel like Prometheus was misunderstood similar to Alien:isolation... We did not see any xeno action on prometheus and yes it has many flawa but i feel we are a bit harsh on it, only really got it after a few screenings, with isolation i feel ppl were expecting something like colonial marines which was garbage, just violence, no thought or strategy to it so when pople got isolation and the xeno was in yo face and showcasing why its called "the perfect organisim" people did't like this, oh yes and Requiem was just Balls hy, Trash

Always a joy to go over how I rank them and read others! :D

1) Alien

2) Prometheus

3) Aliens

4) Alien 3

5) Predator

6) Predators

7) A:R

8) Predator 2

9) AVP 

10) AVPR

 

It feels weird putting the Predator movies in the list, since I don't usually do haha. It was funny, I used to like Predator 2 as much as, if not more than, Predator. That was until this past Sunday when I rewatched it for the first time in a while and I just found it to be really sloppy and cheesy. There is some cheese in Predator, but it works better. 

 

Other note: A:R becomes more likeable the longer I exist, oddly enough

Cool ranking.Predator isn't necessary but is certainly encouraged.

nin- you did a makeover!

Isolation is a tough one since it was more of an active experience true to Alien than a passive movie watching one. Since it is out there on the thread, I would rank it above Alien for the more active engagenent. Here comes the hate.

To me deviant is over the top Giger (lots of stuff out there) or at least like QES. I still think your pic is cool though- just used to seeing the AC poster pic.

I decided to change it because i think some one else is using the same pic as me.This should avoid some confusion.Next will be some classic Giger or a facehugger.Although my brother said stick with the Covenant poster because i had it first lol.I should also say i can't even remember who had the Covenant poster any way lol.
