You're an absolute fricking moron if you think this is even remotely comparable to Alien. It's literally teetering on normie garbabe.
You're an absolute fricking retard if you think this is even remotely comparable to Alien.

You are THIS if you THAT and think blah blah blah
Shit, I came here to post the same thing. Op universally sounds like a moronic troon
ok
It was enjoyable. Great background movie at this point too.
Alien wwbo: $184,637,785
Aliens wwbo: $183,291,893
clearly they are both 'normie' movies and OP is giant homosexual
Aliens is the better movie. Alien becomes a generic monster movie as soon as it bursts out of John Hurts' chest.
Please never post on Cinemaphile again
Please be bait
Scott is unironically a far superior filmmaker to Cameron
alien is a generic monster movie with above average production design. it is normie garbage moron
Suck my dick OP you absolute homosexual
Theyre both excellent movies in theyre own way and you shouldnt compare them. Like T1 and T2.
Alien 3 is the GOAT though.
T1 is better than T2
>T1 >> T2
>Aliens >> Alien
>Alien 3 is the GOAT though.
Alien 3: Assembly Cut is the GOAT though.
FTFY
>*tips fedora*
that's what happens when you go from Ridley Scott to James Cameron.
>Alien
>aka a whole movie of just waiting for the next jumpscare
>muh anti-normie high-brow scifi-thriller
lol
lmao even
Alien was not scary at all. Can't understand all the nincompoops praising it as one of the greatest Sci-fi horror ever
it's bad sci fi and bad horror. not one good film in the series. might be the worst franchise, not counting really bottom of the barrel stuff like fast and furious or transformers
It’s hilarious this board has gotten so moronic that the majority of posters in this thread are pretending alien is a bad movie.
Yeah I don't like this film
Alien is a great film yet Aliens put me to sleep
What makes Alien so much better? They're both 8/10 movies
it had some really great moments. I just caught a rewatch of it on a sneaky stream and its pretty sweet. Bishop was a homie

Did I describe Alien or Aliens?
Of course they're comparable, you thick frick.
>reductionism
Arachnophobia and spiderman are both about being bitten by spiders
>outlines plot beats that are the same from movie to movie
>r-reductionism!
Put some effort in, for frick's sake.
Any similarity they have comes from one being a sequel to the other.
The rest is your bias and yes, reductionism
It's Cameron sequel syndrome, and it's trackable.
Alien and Aliens have the same plot directed by different people. What is so difficult to understand here?
>What is so difficult to understand here?
Maybe it's not difficult, maybe it's just you
We're talking about movies here, don't run away.
You aren't giung to convince me with your flat earth theory.
Bring somethign valid to the table and maybe people will be inclined to talk
>Bring somethign valid to the table
the irony
You made the initial claim, moron. Nobody's here's to indulge you
I don't expect indulgence, you fricking fool.
A little discussion about movies on the film board would be great, instead of your ebin aloof homosexualry
Yeah alien is better no question
I've watched Aliens. Should I watch Alien? I hate spoopy movies.
>I hate spoopy movies.
It doesn't make you shit your pants. It's not that kind of horror. It's all about building tension and keeping you on the edge of seat.
Both are excellent in their own way, just like T1 and 2. Any other consideration is a matter of preference.
You have to be a moron to create these fake competitions.
no idea why people think they are clever for hating aliens
This is like hating T2
Unclever people need to find ways to feel clever.
It's an ego thing.
And yes, an unclever thing
>It's literally teetering on normie garbabe.
yeah, no shit OP, Cameron is the master of crowd-pleasing. or you think his movies made billions by being arthouse?
that said it's still a good action movie, although I personally found the marine super fricking annoying with their tryhard attitude. I get that the point is that they underestimate the alien menace but jesus christ
Aliens is not an action movie, but you npcs always parrot this
Yeah it's jumping the shark: the movie. But for what it is, you can't deny it's well made.
don't need to compare
>Alien
>not normie garbage
What? Are you saying it's some transcendental masterpiece akin to Bresson, Ozu, Tarkovsky or Dreyer?
