The first two films are legitimately great, the rest is various shades of meh.
This episode, I'm gonna explain why the ALIENS movieverse just freakin' suuuuuuuuucks and 20th Century Fruitbat desperately need to give up with it. We're missing out on the next great, new movie concept, like 'Alien' was back in 1979, because studios are so focussed on expired IPs like this.
Just cos I love you, I've included kwik-snax summaries of the films! And a review for each! From the original through to Romulus! Aren't you lucky? x
