It's like Alien except sucky.
I meant more of a thought out opinion of the film itself. Not where it stands compared to the other ones.
The story was kinda dumb, there's no real suspense because we all know what's going to happen to Ripley, the characters are weak, the alien isn't as good as before, and bald people.

Lots of action, suspenseful, and good special effects for the day. What more could you want from a monster movie?
3 is very weak compared to the others IMHO. Now it is still better than many other movies, but the production and writing mess was a [urlhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alien_3]nightmare[/url].

Alien Resurrection made me look at Alien 3 in a more positive light.

Alien 3 is a mess, but at least it isn't THAT.

yeah, my wife just finished the book and loved it so we'll be there opening weekend I'm sure.

We watched Dawn of the Dead last night. For some reason I didn't realize that she had never seen that. WTF?

So ... is it a big deal that it isn't Norman Osbourne? I don't read comic books.

Nah.

Forgot to mention I watched ALIEN last night. For some reason, even with the director's cut, it seemed shorter than usual. Still, it remains fantastic and I look forward to revisiting the sets with Prometheus.
