What did you think of Alien 3?

Ripley giving birth to another Xenomorph via chestbursting would've been a way betting ending and death than her throwing herself into the vat of molten steel.

>even its director doesn't like it
Stop saying stupid shit like this

The assembly cut shows it was basically some magic superfacehugger that could implant 2 embryos. Apparently it could magically conjure up eggs in parts of spaceship no alien queen ever visited too.

Is the Assembly Cut really that much better? Or is it basically a meme at this point?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand it's a food analogyyyy yayyy

After watching it many times, I begin to love it more. The atmosphere and music is unmatched. And once you learn who all the side characters are it builds more interest since you can tell them apart.

It was stupid, only one attempted gang rape scene? The movie should of been 90% rape to be believable

It's grown on me a lot over the years. Definitely flawed, but at the risk of sounding contrarian I might even like it more than Aliens.

Very good, mainly because of the fantastic British cast and Sigourney Weaver.

Absolutely correct opinion. It has always been 1 > 3 > 2

love it

Alright guys, let's settle this. What was better, the alien coming out of the dog or out of the ox?
Obviously for its size it made more sense to come out of the ox for me, but the dog version just felt so much more gruesome.

Alien - 9/10
Aliens - 9/10
Alien 3 - 7.5/10
Resurrection - 6/10
Alien Isolation - 8/10

Dog definitely had a bigger impact on me so I vote that

The dog, as you say more gruesome. Dog was alive and suffered, the ox was dead. Also the ox had the stupid CGI alien.

>Also the ox had the stupid CGI alien.

Did it? I remember the alien was mostly a rod-puppet.

It's kinda bad, not the worst alien movie though. There's a great movie hidden in there somewhere

They never finished the effects for the ox scene when it was cut. When they made the assembly cut and swapped the scenes they added some shitty CGI alien running away accompanied by a very lazily added newborn baby's cry.

it's the movie that makes me realize i care more about "film texture" than about plot or characters, i just love the way it looks and feels far more than 1 and 2

I just find it not very interesting. Alien and Alien Resurrection are my preferred ones, though resurrection is a bit all over the place it still looks awesome.

It's the product of having too many cooks in the kitchen.

Worst was resurrection. The AVP films, Prometheshit and covenshat don't count. Resurrection killed the franchise.

Alien 9/10
Aliens 10/10
Alien 3 4/10
Alien 3 Assembly Cut 7/10
Resurrection 2/10
Prometheus 7/10
Covenant 6/10

The worst part of the movie was the special effect of the alien running. Looked fucking horrible. Otherwise it was kino.

YOU JUST KNOW

Worse than first two, but still good. I like how it ends but I don't like how it kills off Newt and Hicks in the opening credits

>David Fincher eventually disowned the film later on stating in an interview with The Guardian in 2009 that "No one hated it more than me; to this day, no one hates it more than me."

The movie should have been Ripley and the Xenomorph joining forces and fighting an even bigger alien

The setting was good, but the editing and special effects during the climax are god awful and ruin the movie for me. One time I watched it with a large group of friends and when the CGI xeno ran on the ceiling we lost out shit.

>Resurrection 1/10
It's like you hate fun. 4 is a bit stupid but it's also fucking great at the same time

Didn't like Hicks, Newt, and Bishop effectively dying offscreen, but it was solid otherwise. Dutton and Dance were spectacular, and Postlethwaite is always great. Also had a good story arc that linked with Ripley and gave it all good closure. Good suspense and atmosphere, great acting, generally underrated film all in all.

I didn't say it was untrue, I said it was stupid
>dude the person who went through hell to make it doesn't like it that means it's BAD
Of course he doesn't fucking like it, it was an awful production and he was stressed to hell the entire time and was always going to despise the finished product
Fincher's opinion on Alien 3 is as worthless as Lynch's opinion of Dune 1984, he was far too close to it to be able to judge the thing fairly

>After Miramax boss Bob Weinstein saw early footage (of Mimic), there were fights between him and del Toro regarding the tone, with Weinstein claiming the film was not scary enough.[10] It has been reported that one day Weinstein was so infuriated with del Toro that he stormed onto the Toronto set and attempted to instruct del Toro on "how to direct a movie."[10] Weinstein would eventually try to get del Toro fired.[10] Following an intervention from lead actress Mira Sorvino, Weinstein backed down, and principal photography would be completed with del Toro as director in early 1997.[10] However, Weinstein still insisted on having control over the final cut.[10] Producer B.J. Rack later compared making the film to "being a prisoner of [a] war camp",[10] while del Toro stated in 2018 "The only time I have experienced bad behaviour, and It remains one of the worst experiences of my life, was in 1997, when I did Mimic for Miramax. It was a horrible, horrible, horrible experience."[11]
many such cases!
