Had one on my sisters wedding day. Made my face hurt. Probably not as nice as the one pictured.

Alien 3 hate is curious to me. I had it on VHS, back when you could only watch what you had on tape, so like all kids with limited movies they would get re- watched a lot, regardless of quality.

As a result, I can quote nearly as much of that movie as I can the first two (which, of course, are infinitely better).

So what I’m saying is I’ve got a soft spot for it. I’ll also defend the characters, who were well acted and portrayed. The overall atmosphere of a hostile planet was also pretty well executed.

Killing off Hicks, Newt & Bishop was a terrible start, but if you overlook that massive narrative fuck up, what else do people really hate about it?

Well said. There’s also something about a certain type of atheist who confidently voices their refusal to believe in anything unless proven with empirical evidence, that I personally find mildly irritating.

I appreciate critical thinking and I’m quite skeptical myself, but it’s that confident certainty, that nothing that hasn’t been proven scientifically is real, that slightly irks me.

It’s a mindset that seems to conveniently omit the possibility of future scientific discoveries and ‘unknown science’, and comes off in some as a somewhat smug, arrogant attitude that, somewhat ironically, can often be found in the blindly religious.
