re: Thoughts on Alien:3?

Fincher I believe didn't like what the studio did to the film.

He has disowned the movie completely because it was nowhere near what he wanted.

I still like it though. I really don't understand the hate. Aliens was nothing like alien yet people love it just the same. It was just an action movie with aliens.

Alien 3 brought it back to the roots of just one alien, although it didn't match the suspense of the first, it was a nice homage. You also get the ruthlessness of weyland first hand. All they care about is the alien for their studies.

I could go on and on, this movie was a big favorite of mine as a child and still is.
