I'll be honest. Maybe it's because I'm only 31 or maybe I'm just not a fan... but the new alien movie is the only one in thoroughly enjoy lol. Don't care for predator either but liked Predators and Prey.

first Predator & Prey are my favorites as far as the horror aspect but Predators is a highlight cuz it’s like an action/adventure/sci fi mash up kinda like The Mummy w/ Brendan Fraser. plus you can’t go wrong with Laurence Fishburne. Predator 2 is iconic cuz that “Want some candy?” scene has been living rent free in my head ever since childhood lol. something about a hyper intelligent super lethal non terrestrial creature w/ cloaking abilities ominously mimicking an innocent human gesture before completely eviscerating someone is still a top tier genre moment for all time lol.

Yeah, no lol. Just feels outdated to me.

For example, the scene where they’re looking for the alien and it’s ramping up the tension as they go to open the cupboard, but then get jumpscared by a cat leaping out. Seeing that for the first time now I’d roll my eyes, but at the time that technique was way more fresh and effective.
I think a lot of classics tend to be victims of their own success in that way.
i can’t believe he said Ripley being badass doesn’t make his dong dance. i don’t know what to believe anymore.
what’s he going to say next, that he wouldn’t let Sarah Connor pump his 12 gauge until he terminates his load all over the skynet?
i shudder at the answer.
