Alien in the first one got heavily wounded by a small spear gun.
"Heavily wounded"? What are you on? The spear barely dug in past the tip. The thing was fine until it got hit with the jets.
there were pieces of alien chest spreading all over when it got hit by the spear and it screamed in pain. It penetrated his body so deep that it got stuck in his chest
QuoteQuoteAliens in the second movie were even stronger becaue they were older,
Older = stronger? Where's this ever shown?
There isnt a direct onscreen evidence of that. Aliens in Aliens could get through steel doors and barricades, and that a proof of enormous strenght. Then again to be fair, there wasn;t a situation for alien in the first movie to showcase his strenght. Still, he was just a baby that was alive for less than 24 hours as oppose to fully adult aliens in Aliens.
QuoteQuoteand with more grace,
The Alien showed more grace descending behind Brett or advancing on Lambert than any Alien did in the sequel.
Well, that's ones take on it. While it was certainly a graceful movie, all he did was descending down. Aliens in the sequel never moved or stood the way human beings did, and move around on the walls, ceiling and with animalistic grace
Thats NOT to take away anything from alien of the first movie. I love Alien just as much as I love Aliens. Im not trying to take anything away from the 79 masterpiece. Im just pointing out that the creature of the first movie wasnt some HULK-like super indestructible creature immune to grenades and heavy weapons like some claim it to be
