Aliens was as good or better than Alien.

I liked Alien better. But they both are awesome.


I haven't seen Aliens, but I did see Alien: Resurrection, which sucked. They did effectively show how fucking annoying it would be to be trapped on a spaceship with Winona Rider. Almost too well, really. Everything I've read indicates that Aliens is pretty solid. I read somewhere that Fox or whoever has the rights to the first flick is re-releasing it into theatres, so I have been sort of avoiding catching them again in the hopes of seeing them on the big screen. I would imagine that they really take advantage of a theatre that way.

Highlander had several really good bits. Those were the parts where people were fighting with swords and getting their heads chopped off. And Sean Connery ripping on people was pretty good. And there was a really hillarious car scene where the main badguy kidnaps the girlfriend and runs people over like he's playing GTA or something. (Stream of conciousness remembering here.) Then it had long stretches of suck. And the ending was as gay as any scene in Predator, but without rippling biceps.


Highlander is one of my favorite movies. My understanding is that each subsequent film does everything possible to skullfuck and completely ruin the first one, so I have sort of avoided them. It was also one of the first DVDs that got down to the $4.95 -- $7.95 price point, sort of making it like the Steve Miller Band's Greatest Hits of DVDs.


the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey!
