What movies are you watching?

[epilogue]

I watched ALIEN for the first time last night.

Loved it. Excellent. 4.5 stars

Tonight it's Aliens. I probably won't bother with any of the others in the series after that. I get the impression they're not very good.

Alien 3 is fucking GREAT (I actually like it more than Aliens; super unpopular opinion, I know).

I also like Prometheus, too.

The recent sequels are flawed but good. I really like Prometheus, and the other one isn't too bad.

Which one had Wynona Ryder in it? That was awful.

That was the fourth one, Alien: Resurrection. I haven't seen it since it's original theatrical run but I remember really not liking it.

Aliens is one of my favorite movies.

[LoathedVermin72]

Alien3 is great. Just make sure to watch the Assembly Cut.

Resurrection sucks. Prometheus and Covenant rule once you get past how stupidly the characters behave.

Is the Assembly Cut easy to find? The version that's available on one of the steaming services I subscribe to looks like it's the theatrical cut. (It's runtime is 1hr 54m).

It’s available on DVD and Blu-ray. Not sure about streaming services. It’s a very different experience than the theatrical cut.

I believe it is marketed as the 'Special Edition' on streaming sites.

I'm glad we feel similar about these movies. I know a lot of people that hate Prometheus and Covenant, but I think they are beatiful movies. The flaws are definitely in the characters, but it doesn't bug me too much. I just wish Noomi was back for another one, but they kind of wrote her out of it with Covenant, I guess.

I loooove the Alien series. Love all of them, and both Prometheus and Covenant are so fucking good, so twisted, to beautiful. I hope Ridley gets to make the final one.

Mission Impossible.

Damn its been so long since i saw it...last time it was a rented vhs? i adore this one....De Palma is having so much fun here. And the cast? glorious..i was so fucking shocked at the start of the movie with their job gone wrong.

What an amazing movie.

I remember seeing the original in the theater opening weekend. I have seen all the M:I sequels but the first is the only one that I really care for.

I love all of them, with the second one being plain bad. I might saw it again anyway. But the series got super strong in the last couple of entries.

[tragabigzanda]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I had the cassette single for the theme, it might have been the first analog thing I ever transferred to a PC.
The first sequel had Limp Bizkit so...

That cast man...Tom, Jon Voight, Emilio Estevez, Vanessa Redgrave, Henry Czerny, Jean Reno, Kristin Scott Thomas....
And how cool and subversive is to have the main guy from series as the baddie?

[LoathedVermin72]

4 and 3 are my favorite entries. De Palma is one of my favorite directors and I watched M:I a million times as a kid but it hasn’t held up super well for me. It’s solid but not much more.

JJ career is crap? For christ sake Trag, even if you dont like his movies that giy sure knows how to shoot on a bigger scale. He is capable of amazing things.

[Jorge]

I've never seen the first one

[wease]

I haven’t seen a M:I movie since the second one.

[VinylGuy]
