Yep, and I'd say they are both sci-fi, so it's fine to compare them on the list of best sci-fi. But I give the nod to Alien because I enjoy that more as a horror movie than I enjoy Aliens as an action movie. Like if we were ranking horror movies, Alien would be in the top 10, maybe top five. For action movies, I'd put Aliens in the top 20, maybe top 10.

    Yeah. Alien is is my top four on Letterboxd.

    I love Aliens, but I do think it’s inferior.

    I love the characters, set pieces, and all but it’s just not there.

    Hell, I rewatched Predator recently. I think it may be superior.
