  • Not only is the Alien Quadrilogy the One Box Set to Rule Them All, Alien 3 is truly the greatest director's cut ever released. It makes the film MUCH better, and I liked the original. If you didn't , you'll probably like this one. SOO much more in it

  • Your favorite band sucks, and you have terrible taste in movies.

Frankly, I can't stand the recycled plot and characters over and over and over and over and over again. Ian Fleming died! Fucking get over it and move on!</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>This is the one BOX SET to rule them all, not the ONE DVD to rule them all. What Fox did with this set has never been done. They changed EVER FILM and added so many amazing extras (docus are amazing) it's nuts. Maybe the uber-LotR will be better, but right now, it's not close</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Don't get me wrong, Two Towers is a much better film. But no film has ever seen such a dramatic improvement in quality from a director's cut than Alien 3 IMO</div>
