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.

Fishtoes- give it a shot and judge for yourself. Grab some snacks and beverage and have fun- and brace for a couple very disturbing scenes.

I love Alien Resurrection.I'll admit i have a bit of a soft spot for it because i was 7 years old when it came out and was lucky enough to see it.My good friend dk has a thread on why Alien Resurrection is underrated.Check it out.I don't think there are too many spoilers in there.

"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"

@dk LOL  same here hy, it made me afraid of the Xeno again

1, without a doubt Alien.. still, in my humble opinion, the scariest horror/sci film out there, Dalls in the tunnel and the tracker showing the Alien closing in still has me on the edge of my seat even after 100 plus views.

2, maybe its an age thing but as Ive gotten older I really appreciate Prometheus and the different angle that it offers to the saga. I agree with many others that it is a misunderstand film however I really do think it holds its own.

3, Aliens  Until very recently this was number 2. Still a classic and one that I can happily watch every other week.

4, Alien 3 Didn't really like the Xeno in this one however loved the setting and in retrospect, apart from Alien, I think this has the best acting

5 AVP   Im in the lesser community here but I really enjoyed this film and still do to this day, as discussed in previous forums there are quite a few similarities to Prometheus. Id say my main gripe is that it isn't scary enough.

6 AR  Really enjoyed the characterisations in this, CGI was a bit ropey in some places, especially the underwater scenes and as with AVP, not really scary but there are much worse films out there.

7 AVP Requiem.. still cant make any sense of this entry.. its a rather good comedy however it did hurt my eyes watching as I had to squint to make most of the film out.

 

Keep up the good work guys, this is a great site!

The lighting in Reqieum is pretty poor.It also makes a group unintentional comedy lol.

Starlogger called The Alien baby in AR a piece of shite (page 2 in this discussion for those that care about references). Speaking of shit, this is from an Austin Powers movie (LOL): (0:20-0:26) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZeOxbmX_VEQ

 

Call me immature but I think that scene is fun as hell. :D

PROMETHEUS

Alien 3

Predators

Alien Ressurection

Alien vs Predator Requiem

easy:

1) Alien (by far and away the best of the best)

2) Prometheus (and I fully expect A:C to wind up somewhere around 2-3)

3) Alien 3

4) Alien Res

5) Aliens (the worst of the worst. Too much Hollywood. The Aliens were ruined. Overblown and just plain not dark enough.)

I do not consider AvP and AvP Requiem part of the Alien franchise.
