The Alamo in Yonkers, NY is absolute trash though and doesn't even enforce the policy. I have raised my card many times and nothing ever, EVER happens.
Alien³ is actually my personal favorite film in the franchise. I'm not foolish enough to say it's better than 1 or 2, but I think 3 is a better representation of the horrors space travel brings to humanity. Space doesn't care how much you like Newt and Hicks, it will kill them off screen just to let you know where you stand. Also, PLEASEx100, read the novelization! It explains so much, gives names and crimes/pasts to every prisoner, etc. Finally, the cast is incredible! Charles Dance, Pete Postlethwaite, Charles S Dutton, Danny Webb, Paul McGann, Brian Glover, Holt McCallany, it's incredible! I feel 2 made the whole thing about guns, which was never 1's goal. So I feel 3 is the perfectly bookends (sans some sus special effects and production sabotage) the first two. One is my favorite, two is fantastic and adds so much greatness and 3 returns us to the OG, Heavy Metal-esque, Gothic horror.
I think Alien is a franchise that almost everybody agrees which 2 are the best but nobody agrees on the rest. For me personally it's Alien 10/10 Aliens 10/10 Prometheus 7/10 Alien 3 7/10 Alien Covenant 6/10 Alien Resurrection 5/10
It’s crazy. I have to tell people to turn their phones off at PRESS screenings.
Lorelei and the Laser Eyes was influenced by the film Last Year at Marienbad, if you are looking for a film companion piece.

Prometheus 7/10
Alien 3 7/10
Alien Covenant 6/10
Alien Resurrection 5/10
