Has anyone got the Alien set, is it worth buying because I am thinking of getting it soon.

Deano
if u like the films then yes

Scarecrow756
I have not seen any of them, but I have got a feeling that I will like them.

Well, you listed Alien vs. Predator in your "favorite movies" spot of your profile, and if you like that piece of shit (no offense but I HATED it), then you'll LOVE the actual Alien films. Hard to believe you never warched them.

Deano
if you are a typical modern teenager. you might not like alien, but will probably love 'aliens' which is more action packed

MildPossession
It's worth getting, and you can probably find it cheap now, in the sales as well.

Try and get the one with the lovely yellow neon disc holders, a lot of them are clear. Neon yellows are gorgeous.

I am a sci- fi fan.

I thought it was ok.

Nevermind
I've seen all four and I really don't think it's worth. Unless you come across it real cheap.

It's the most comprehensive "Alien" collection around. With the multiple cuts of the movies (8 movies total), the extensive extras, and everything else they crammed in there, how couldn't it be worth it?

The director`s cut of Alien 3 is really good, but it is better getting the Alien Quadrilogy rather then the 4 films separately.

coolmovies

I can`t understand it either, Alien 3 is a bloody masterpiece. IMO all the Alien films are good in their own ways. Even Alien Resurrection had its moments.

coolmovies
No alien 3 is not a masterpiece becouse the girl and reaply die. Alien Resurrection sucks only the first two are a masterpiece.

So what do you think of the movies scarecrow ? Have you tryed the extres in the box set ?

Here is my opiouns on all of the Alien films.

Alien: It started off the series and set the tone for what was going to come, personally it is my second favorite. I liked how the Alien was portrayed horrifically and how one could kill seven, this made it more terrifying.

Aliens: The best in the series IMO, it had more action and James Cameron really made Ripley evolve in this film. My favorite out of all the four films.

Alien 3: In my opinion this was the darkest film in the series. My third favourite. Again like Alien it showed how one Alien could kill loads of people which made it or the more terrifying like Alien.

Alien Resurrection: This for me was okay, IMO there were some good bits and bad bits, I personally think that the series should have ended with Alien 3. My fourth favourite.

cool well there was alot of problems with alien 3 becouse the script was not ready . At the end David Fincher had to make it with alot of retakes.

Have you checked the extres out ? why make Alien Resurrection

mad

I have checked most of the extras out, I am aware that Alien 3 did have its problems due to the script and change of director half way through. I agree Alien Resurrection should not have been made, but it have its good moments but overall it was a very bad film.

coolmovies
I just saw Alien last night again still terrifying !!! I didnt watch all the extres becouse there are too many . Thats why this box set is a must have .

Its the best box set everyone wants to make box sets like this thats why there is a 10 !! disk matrix box set

Scarecrow756
I watched Alien the other day, out of all the Alien films I rewatch this film the most out of all the four.
