    Alien/Aliens (both blew me away)
    Predator 2
    Predator (I initially didn’t like this flick. It grew on me overtime.)

    I know it gets a lot of hate but I’ve always enjoyed Predator 2. I enjoyed the humor and action. The anger aspect of the story is now sort of timely.

    And I think the Terminator should exist in these worlds too.

    For the Alien series, I consider Alien, Alien: Isolation, and Aliens to be canon and all other Alien films to be utter write-offs.

    Predator 1 and 2 are canon and others I don't care for that much.

    Didn’t the story derive from Predator comic ?

    The one on the prison colony (was that 3?) was kind of fun.

    That would certainly change the dynamic of the Predator clan coming to Earth to hunt.

    About time kudos was given to Kevin Peter Hall who played The Predator in Predator 1&2. Tall, athletic mover.. never bettered.

    Surprising that some don't like the original Predator, or think it is weak. Granted, the plot storyline is simplified and not much going on in any character development at all. With all of that, it's classic Arnold. If anyone was a fan of his 80s action films, it is hard not to like this film and easy overlook the other stuff. I can completely get why some wouldn't like it if you're not a fan of Arnie.

    I don't think the Predator films are anywhere in the same league with the Alien films. They're kitsch.

    Predators 2 starting to get more appreciation.

    While I enjoy some of the predator stuff, I only voted for Alien and Prometheus. The others are light fare. I'm a Ridley Scott fan, and while Prometheus had some problems I appreciated what he was trying to do with it. And I liked how it was produced. The first Alien was an incredible achievement, a great film that defined the genre.

    Predators doesn’t get enough love in my opinion.

    And AvP: Requiem is my favorite bad movie in the last 15 years.

    well yeah, the thing is dark. Like, stupid dark. Literal and figuratively! But the plot, logic and character building leaves something of a bad taste as well. The sheriff and ex-con working together? Sigh... but I still loved it

    The Predator wasn't a reboot, but the third sequel. Granted, it wasn't spelled out clearly, but Jake Busey played the son of the character his father, Gary Busey, played in Predator 2. Arnold spoke with Shane Black about returning as Dutch, but eventually decided to pass.

    I didn't like The Predator much, but the film was subject to major changes demanded by the studio (including a whole new ending), against Shane Black's intentions, and the result is a mess. Watching the movie, you can tell that important scenes are missing, and that the (re-shot) ending was patched to the rest of the film. I don't think the first three were subject to any creative tampering like this. Would the movie have been better without the studio interference? I can't say.

    Jake Busey said his part was larger. Hated the mutant predator. Best thing/ worst thing was Olivia Munn eye candy ... but she bad rapped the film promotion with statement about fellow actor. That aside I don’t think either way the movie would have been a better success.
