A big reason I ended up starting out with this Alien series was to finally watch Alien 3. I read a couple things online about how the extended cut made more sense and was probably better so I plunged into that one.
David Fincher walked away from making this movie at somepoint, I assume he tried to Alan Smithee it, but was unable to scour his name from the movie. If this longer version is better, I maybe still wish I would have watched the shorter version. Not a lot in this really worked for me. Once again they kind of start Ripley off in a more passive role, and then she ends up taking some charge. I don't know who's to blame, I mean the script couldn't have been that good, but the movie isn't really any good.
