Why do people hate Alien3?

<< < (3/226) > >>

chupacabras acheronsis:
because it's not very interesting. it's a nice movie with beautiful visuals and the best score of all movies, but its more of the same. they had the balls to kill off two main characters but not to do much else of what the original draft ambitioned.

...and i might be the only one that kinda likes the murder/rapist bald guys. they're funny.

bet you don't remember Lydecker and his personality, do you? ( don't bullshit me with some "oh i remember him!")

Thus, I presume, you have answered your title question on your own: Alien/Aliens are so "people's" movies, opposed to Alien^3, which is obviously not and looks like a slasher story shoved into the Alien universe's frames.

I really do not want to aggravate you, but I do remember who's Lydecker, I memorized him by name, when the second, fat guy called him and pointed out at the kids, rollicking down in the corridor. Though, I can't say anything about his personality, as he was on-screen merely a couple of minutes or somewhat (director's cut).

And in my opinion, Ripley's death doesn't impart a lot of depth there. It's weirdly, but she feels like already being dead (figuratively) from the very beginning. On Morse's cry-out to thrust her head through the wall, she just whispers: "It sounds good to me". Touche!

Nice pictures! Love this scene from Alien, so real one!

I personally root for Morse here :-)

Alien³:
I love the Assembly Cut but hate the Theatrical cut. So BOOM!

Captain Idiot:
Alien 3 kicks ass! I dont understand why people hate it. Yes, Hicks and Newt died but at least they had an
awesome funeral. I want to be buried like that

predxeno:
Many of the producers have said in interviews that Alien 3 initially got such bad reviews because after Aliens, audiences were expecting a much different kind of movie; probably more like Aliens and less of a regression to the original Alien style.  A lot of the characters were also very hard to identify being as they were practically all bald.  The reason I'm not fond of this film is because it killed off all the characters from the 2nd film.
