Terminator 2 is so much better than the original, greatest sequel of all time.

Second place goes to Aliens, wwaaaayyy better than the original.

Cameron just makes fucking great sequels.

Aliens is the great movie of all time? You need to expand your horizons. Go rent some real good movies.

Fuck off. I love it, you can say you didn't think that much of it, but you have no idea what I've watched and you don't need to attack me over it.

Aliens is in my top 5. And nine out of ten dentists think I'm a genius.

So there.

The phrase "greatest film of all time" is thrown around a lot.

That said... the best I can think of are:

Army of Darkness
The Godfather: Part II
Terminator 2

I recently watched Alien3 and I was thinking about it, I think it may be the best Aliens movie.. I like the others a lot too, and 2 kicks ass, "Game over, man! Game over!" (gotta love Hudson).. but 3 is where the whole essence of the movies, and Ripleys character comes to a head. It shows how cruel the company really is, shows them as kind of a syndicate with storm troopers and everything, and it shows how Ripleys destiny is completely entwined with the Aliens, eventually she beats the Aliens, costing her her life.. It also had a deeper message about redemption and salvation, and what it means to live life, and die, with honour. It's the climax of an amazing trilogy.. 4 and AVP are subpar in my books.. Too formulaic.

Fuck off. I love it, you can say you didn't think that much of it, but you have no idea what I've watched and you don't need to attack me over it.

You didn't say it was the greatest movie that you've watched, you said it was the greatest movie of all time. He doesn't need to have any idea of what you've watched to tell you that Aliens is, in fact, not the greatest movie of all time. It's not even in the team photo. It's not even the fucking equipment manager.
So can the crybaby bullshit and fuck off yourself. Then you can either go watch some decent movies and we'll discuss them like intelligent human beings, or you can continue to espouse uninformed crap and people will keep telling you you're wrong and your taste sucks.
Your choice.
