@StateMachine92 Same here. It's a perfect trilogy! Resurrection is more like a spin-off. For me it will always end with A3. It's the dark ending the series deserves.
Alien 3 hugely underrated movie,due to production difficulties it didnt go as high as the previous ones but the actors were so good that they stole the show of the alien.
"Why? Why the innocent, punished? Why the sacrifice? Why the pain? There aren't any promises. Nothing certain. Only that some get called, others saved. She won't ever know of the hardship and grief of those of us left behind. We commit these bodies to the void with a glad heart. For within each seed, there is a promise of a flower, and within each death, no matter how small, there is always a new life. A new beginning."
I for one loved this movie. Saw it in the theaters, own it on DVD. If you watch the Assembly cut, you'll see how much this movie was bastardized. It COULD have been a much better film, had it not been edited like crazy in the final cut.
@falariem I Agree, the assembly cut should have been what we saw the first time around. Its one of the reason I love the dvd's containig two cuts and we see what could have been. I love the use of this piece by the way in the assembly cut in the aftermath of the fire corridor scene, made it much mroe somber.
Also love how it was used when describing Vincent Ward's original vision of a wooden planet which would have been just as intersting.
I love the Alien Movies so...i grew up with this Movies, even though i watched them thousands of times they still fascinate me...love the Music, especially when ripley jumps into the Fire.epic epic EPIC!!!!
@apollonas101 I think his death made the movie more believable. Let's face it, even good men like Hicks cannot live forever. I know it's not action pact with marines, but I just love everything about Alien 3, the religious/cult setting, the desperation, Ripleys sadness after losing Newt and discovering she has an alien Queen inside her, and let's not forget Dillon's great speech at the funeral. I eventually got rid of Alien 1 2 and 4, but i kept this movie cause it's a masterpiece.
With a friend, I crossed Nevada in 2007. We drove the entire night through the "extraterrestrial highway" (Hwy 375). The sky was absolutely dark and full of stars. We were playing this soundtrack. It was memorable.
@moondog202001 Apparently it is a prequel, and Ridley Scott is going to direct it, also I've heard there will be 2 prequels, one being about the origin of the Xenomorphs. Also I've heard that the alien race that was found (not xenomorphs) on the ship in the original film, shall be in it a little more, and it will be shot in 3D :)
Some movies you just have to see once a year , saw this yesterday.. so dramatic. the music is amazing and so powerful, so sad that hicks and newt had to die its like all the fighting in "aliens" was for nothing..but... in the bigger picture they wiped out the aliens, which was the plan all along =) a thought...in "alien resurrection" Ripley finally got back to earth, she was heading there in the first movie.....just took here about 286 years,crazy shit =)
ya it is an ox, which i feel is better then having a dog. U really should see the assembly cut. Although the original was good, I thought the Special edition was much better with almost 30 minutes restored footage
The assembly cut is almost a completely different film. I thought the theatrical cut was pretty weak, but the assembly cut is probably my favourite film in the series (part of which is down to the fantastic music).
I did like the Assembly Cut, it's just too bad more work wasn't done on some of the audio. Also, the ending wasn't as powerful as the Theatrical ending in my opinion.
the soundtrack of alien 3 is the best. perfect in every way.

The first movie was about rape.
The second was about motherhood.
The third was about a chronic illness.
And the fourth was about nothing at all and that's why it sucked.
