Rust will take care of the problem of too many bikes <| sep |> I prefer Aliens , in part because I ' m a huge fan of Michael Biehn such a shame how he disappeared . But , other than it being a near perfect actionthriller , I just find it better paced . I run into a pacing problem a lot with Ridley Scott ' s movies , and I ' m not sure why it ' s not anything objectively wrong about the movie , where by around the turn of the third act I just find myself starting to shift in my seat . The first four Alien movies though all have greatdifferent qualities , and it ' s such a great franchise for that even ResurrectionAlien is a superb scifi horror film and was groundbreakingAliens is a fantastic sequel that both respects Ripley ' s character while branching off into action , filled with imagery that is as iconic as Scott ' s Alien . Alien 3 is tonally amazing , oozing with atmosphere and some great performances . It ' s unabashedly depressing my favourite side character , played by Charles Dance , one of the few designed to be immediately likeable gets unceremoniously killed off . My only issue with the unceremonious openingcredits killing of HicksNewt it wasted what could ' ve been some incredibly depressing death scenes throughout the film they deserved to have their deaths a real part of the film . And Alien Resurrection has some interesting ideas , absolutely bizarre camera work for a blockbuster no doubt due to the choice of director , and a great cast of character actors . I ' m one of the people still hoping Blomkamp gets a chance to do his Alien 5 Aliens continuation , as it ' d be interesting to see a film that veers closer to Aliens while having his stylistic flourish cue presumably set in South Africa . And also because I selfishly want to see Hicks get a better sendoff even if it involves killing him again
