The reverse of that post I’ve made a week ago…

Rules: pick one movie or series and explain why you actually enjoyed it despite the criticism.

For me: The JJ Abrams Star Trek movies, by far the best ST stuff ever made, I couldn’t take seriously the original universe with the dated effects and stiff acting, same goes for NG… These movies did ST actually great looking and much more believable, not just the effects.

    I really like Alien: Covenant. Micheal Fassbender is fantastic in that movie.
    Awesome cinematography, awesome vibe, awesome creatures and Aliens, and a fantastic ending.\

    It’s my second favorite Alien movie.
    Okay, thanks to that statement the flamethrowers are gonna come out; let me explain:

    1. Alien is a nigh untouchable masterpiece.
    2. Alien: Covenant
    3. Aliens is a good movie. I don’t quiet like it as much as an Alien-Movie and also am generally not that big of a fan as quite a lot of people seem to be.
    4. Alien Romulus. Okay, nice movie I guess. The are some plot holes like: How do they know Ridley threw the Xenomorph out of the airlock? She is still in Cryosleep. But generally quite enjoyable. Jumping Facehuggers are a nice touch.
    5. Prometheus. I also don’t dislike this one. Even though they got lost in the weeds on this one a bit.
    6. ……
    7. ……
    8. ……
    9. Alien 3: Bad.
    10. Alien Resurrection: Utter Garbag.

        I really enjoyed Alien VS Predator also. Watch it whenever it’s on.

        I personally haven’t watched those movies. Maybe someone in this thread has watched them and befitting this thread likes them?

      I won’t go as far as to say Alien 3 was good. But I will say this:

      Alien 3 was exactly the movie that it had to be in order to end the original trilogy properly from a story/thematic perspective.
