    We're in the pipe, five by five.

    So I've just been watchinerating Aliens Special Edition - still a great movie after all these years.

    Probably *the* best sci-fi movie ev0r.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aliens_(film)

    Perfect popcorn film.

    So peeps - stop your grinnin and drop your linen, and tell meh your best action \ scifi movies. (No Schindler's List type stuff)

    Aliens > Event Horizon

    "I like to keep this handy for close encounters"

    Predator deserves a mention, Sunshine's pretty good in my opinion although very similar to event horizon, Serenity and Firefly as well.

    Exactly Knoxeh.

    Aliens would kick Event Horizons face in, in a quote off.

    Sooo many classics.

    Re: We're in the pipe, five by five.

    Terminator series, yeah. All good.

    Got the same problem as the Alien series - only the first 2 films were classics, then it all went a bit down hill.

    Re: We're in the pipe, five by five.

    Aliens - Directors Cut : Bill Paxton is awesome as Hudson and I love his " check it out ripley... I'm the ultimate badass " rant while going on the drop down to LV-426

    I've got this on DVD and had to get a replacement disc as I wore/damaged the first one due to over use.

    Is it wrong that I dream about having the loader suit on a frequent basis and walk to the shops in it?

    Is the Special Edition the same as the Directors Cut? They both seem to run about the same time.

    Anyway -

    Hudson: Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?
    Vasquez: No. Have you?

    Even though Schindler's List is a brilliant film

    Aliens is a brilliant film for just pure action, well for just pure everything. but event horizon did scare the poop out of me

    It is a brilliant film, but it's not a popcorn movie.
