Well, we agree! I liked looking at the sets. But, well, it just didn't measure up.

Re: Aliens Set The Standard
I haven't seen Aliens in the 4 DVD set. Does it have the scene with the Sentry Guns bLasting away at the Aliens? I saw the movie origially in theaters and it wasn't there. Watched it on Video, wasn't there. Happened to catch it on TV once And There It Was! Love that scene...

I didn't watch all the "extras" but the Alien DVD set has 8 discs in it. One for each movie and one extra for each movie (if you like the extras).

Re: Aliens Set The Standard
I wanna see Alien Vs Predator that's all I've got to say about the sequals beyond Aliens.
As for aliens I thought it was a little strange that maybe 20-30? marines needed such a HUGE ship as the Sulaco, well that and who was piloting that mother?
Anyway that's the only beef I've got with the Alien-Aliens movies, the ships are tooo dang big for such small crews and I think most people would consider it a waste of resources to give every single platoon of marines a Kilometer long ship don't you?

Starhawk: If you and 30 friends were offered a kilometer long starship would you complain?
And you think Alien Ressurection was bad (i think thats number 4, or was it 3?) wait till you've seen it dubbed over in french!!! I was in paris in october and there it was lol. Ripley just doesn't sound the same in the "language of love"

Re: Aliens Set The Standard
Well in the Alien book (not sure which has based on which) they were hauling an oil referinry and crude of all things with them. That was part of the reason the ship was that big.
