Men In Black 3

I can see how people think it's better than a 2 / 10 but you have to admit is miles behind Alien and Aliens

Alien > Alien 3 > Aliens > Alien Resurrection imo. Alien 3 is a solid 7 in my book. A 2 is absurd.

How long ago was it that you saw it and what did you like about it?

For me the only redeeming features were Weaver being a baller and the Doctor, everything else didn't work especially the second half.
It didn't manage to replicate the claustrophobic feel of the first film or the sick action in the second and the Alien design was laughably bad, looked way better in the 70's.

I watch the Alien Quatrilogy probably once every month or two. I'm a pretty big fan. Alien 3 got the short end of the stick because the studio wouldn't give David Fincher complete control. There is a directors cut that makes watching it much much more enjoyable. I hate when they turn the Alien franchise to Sci-Fi action, as opposed to Sci-Fi horror. Alien and Alien 3 bring it back to it's rightful roots. Alien 3 makes you scared as fuck, because they literally have like ZERO real weapons, and everything becomes a cluster-fuck. I remember seeing it as a kid and just absolutely falling in love with the entire vibe he was trying to create. Alien 3 gets the worst rap of the bunch, and I hate seeing people bash it. Sorry, I had to defend my baby. The first one will always be perfect for me, but I have a special spot for Alien 3.

I do agree the Sci-fi Horror concept suits Alien much better than Sci-fi Action I just happen to think execution was better in the second film, to each his own of course
Not to take anything away from the film just speaking in general terms: Things that make a big impression on you at a young age has a tendency to stick with you for the rest of your life, I get that way with Moulin Rogue, The Matrix and Memento among others

La grande bellezza

Oscar winner in the Foreign category 2013, this film i spectacular, easily in my top 3 for the year but I stll feel like this Oscar should have gone to La vie d'adele (not nominated)
