Alien3 is wonderful and Neill Blomkamp is a hack

Should I watch the Predator reboot?
It's not bad. Not as good as it should be, though.

My enjoyment of Alien3 has way more to do with the enjoyment of seeing the early hallmarks of Fincher's style than it does the movie's place within the Alien universe.
I fully understand why people put Alien and Aliens above it. Alien, especially, is probably the better movie. But Alien3 is my personal favorite. I get why Fincher disowns it. I get all the issues it had in development. But all of that stuff aside, I think it's just a really great movie. Easily ranks among the best "part 3's" of any series I can think of. Maybe Jedi is better?

I'd rather watch 4 again than 3. At least 4 has Ron Pearlman, Brad Dourif and Michael wincott.
3 is a snooze.
