It's the classic argument. Which makes for a better film: the presence of the good or the absence of the bad?
Alien has the iconic chest-bursting scene and virtually no flaws whatsoever. Aliens has a better story, with an Oscar nominated foster relationship between Ripley and Newt, and the most badass thing to come out of the franchise: the Alien Queen. On the other hand, it also has Burke -- a poorly written cowardly scheming money-grubbing executive. Literally the first thing he says is "don't hold that against me" in regards to his position as a company man and then he goes on to be a complete caricature in every scene. I'm still kinda leaning in favor of Aliens, but it's hard to vote against Alien when they did everything right and Aliens has that one tiny blemish. --- 2020 going to be a CE kind of year ~ Panthera ...

They turned a masterpiece of horror into a hybrid horror/ action movie that crossed genres. Both are equally great.

Both are some of the best sci-fi movies. But nothing beats "Get away from her you bitch." and Bill Paxton.

I lean more toward Aliens, I have never been that much of a horror fan. Alien is a fantastic movie too though.
