If you honestly think Alien is indisputably better than Aliens, you either misunderstood the topic or are one of those assholes who thinks your opinions should be considered objective fact.

I say this as someone who absolutely prefers Alien over Aliens.

Although looking through the topic, it seems like a lot of people misunderstood the topic. TC is looking for franchises where there is a clear consensus that the first one is the best, and people who disagree are outliers.

A lot of people seem to be just expressing that they have a strong opinion about the first one being better, regardless of whether there is much of a consensus about it.

Maybe next theyll try to tell us the Alien was supposed to be intelligent in the first film, unkillable, and blame Cameron for turning them into mindless bugs

Ive seen these tired old arguments trotted out and thoroughly eviscerated like pigs to the slaughter so many times over the years. Ranking AvP over Prometheus, because Prometheus turned out to be a total ripoff of AvP, is much more fun though. Prometheus has one of the most laughably incomplete and inept plots ever, its almost a miracle by design how bad it turned out.
