It’s truly crazy watching those franchises expand and develop over the decades and years, it’s like they mutated with the later films and became so unrecognisable, until course corrected by the latest legacy sequels that brought them back to the basics (Prey and Romulus, respectively). That being said, Predators is underrated as hell, I rate it after Predator as the second best in the franchise.
Oh, man. Predator 2 is my speed. It's either Predator 2, Predators or Prey as your preferred sequel given that the Yautja have had a better track record than Xenomorph XX121 when it comes to followups. If you don't like Detective Hartigan's battle with the City Hunter, you'll probably prefer Royce's adventures on the game planet. If you find Adrien Brody unbelievable as an action star, than the plight of Naru, who was the first person to make contact with these beasts, will be more your speed. You really can't go wrong with any of them IMO.
Watching AvP as big budget fan-fiction really does help. I think it’s a really fun movie. The sets look great, the Alien and Predator designs rocked. I really enjoy it for what it is. Requiem was trash though 😂
I think I’d rank them: 1. Alien 2. Aliens 3. Predator 4. Alien Romulus 5. Prey 6. Predators 7. Alien Covenant 8. Prometheus 9. Alien vs Predator 10. Alien Resurrection 11. Alien 3 12. Predator 2 13. The Predator 14. Aliens vs Predator: Requiem If you add the rankings and divide by the movies Alien - 66/9 = 7.33 Predator- 62/7 = 8.86 So winning by 1.53 points, Alien is the better franchise (at least in my opinion). Great video Sean!
Prey and Alien Romulus really set both franchises back to the right direction. Maybe in the future they'll be able to make a movie on the same heights as the first Predator film or the first two Alien films
I think what franchise is better depends on what you like more. If you want more scary and thoughtful horror than alien, if you want a more fun, high paced kinda scary but not really, then Predator
I think I’d have to go: S Tier: Alien, Aliens, Predator A Tier: Prey and Romulus C Tier: Predators, Prometheus, Covenant D Tier: AVP, Predator 2, Alien 3 F Tier: Resurrection, The Predator, AVP Requiem As for which is better or which I prefer, I like Predator 1 a lot, but Alien gave me Alien and Aliens. I’ll take those two first.
S- Alien, Aliens, Predator, Prey A- Predators, Predator 2, Prometheus B- Alien ³, The Predator C- AVP, AVPR, Alien Covenant D- Alien Resurrection Haven't been able to see Romulus yet, but I'm super hyped to
My boy, Sean, putting in the work this week! Love this tier rankings. Never seen an Alien movie in my life which seems blasphemous when I’m an 80s baby. Then again, I’ve never seen one Police Academy movie in my entire life. I may finally watch an Alien movie this week. I have seen three Predators movies: OG, Predators, and Prey. That’s probably the only three worth watching to begin with. I think Predators is fantastic and underrated from it’s initial reviews. I think the only Alien movies I will end up seeing are the first two and Romulus. I don’t have time to watch all 9 movies of it with some overlap with Predator. As for the better franchise, Predator has a higher batting average but Alien and Aliens are arguably better than Predator. But I love ‘87 Predator. Used to come on TV a lot and it’s a fun movie. Only Alien and Predators worth watching by general consensus…. Alien Aliens Predator ☑️ Predators ☑️ Prey ☑️ Alien: Romulus 3 down, 3 to go. A fairly mediocre year for sequels/prequels this year, huh? Fairly meh or forgettable except for a handful of them…. Mean Girls Dune: Part Two Kung Fu Panda 4 Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga Bad Boys: Ride or Die A Quiet Place: Day One Inside Out 2 Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F Despicable Me 4 MaXXXine Twisters Deadpool & Wolverine Alien: Romulus Still have sequels to Beetlejuice, Venom, Joker, and Gladiator coming up. I will give this year for blockbusters about a C+ so far. And for TV only a C as House of the Dragon S2 and The Boys S4 disappointed. Then I hear The Umbrella Academy final season was bad. The Acolyte is trash. Cobra Kai is still only one-third out but feels like they’re stretching it too much. My favorite movie of the year only has a 6.7 on IMDb and I watched it again last night. That’s Fly Me to the Moon. Love the 1969 vibes it brings. Then it’s probably D&W and Furiosa right after. But most of the movies with the exception of those two, Dune 2, Romulus, and Inside Out 2 had mostly very mediocre sequels. So far, no movie this decade has given me the joyous feeling that Top Gun: Maverick did back in 2022. That movie felt like a movie made in the 90s for a 90s audience. I rock a Top Gun: Maverick hat from AliExpress and it’s the best hat I got from that site. I didn’t have that much joy in the theater since seeing Jurassic Park, The Shawshank Redemption, and Face/Off in the theaters. Even Titanic, Revenge of the Sith, The Dark Knight, Infinity War, and Endgame didn’t make me as happy as Top Gun 2 did. That movie reminded us why we go to the theaters in the first place. Was it perfect? No. But it made so many people smile once they left the theater. It was better than it was supposed to be.
I really like the way you described the differentiation between Predator and Predator 2. The first is THE trademark Predator film, whereas in 2 the Predator felt shoehorned in.
😂 I don't think it's that bad but yeah it's not great as a movie. But it does have the most badass predator in it, the Wolf predator 💪🏼 veteran hunter just goin to work 🔥
Predator 2 is classic 90s cheese. Danny Glover Danny BOOOY. So good. It doesn't get enough love.. Obviously other than that, the best are: Aliens Predator Alien
Thank you. One of the best parts of the early Alien franchise movies is the unknown. Prometheus and Covenant would be ok if they weren't part of the Alien franchise. Prey was an amazing movie. It's close to the original Predator movie.
As a kid I grew up with the AVP movies so they're pretty nostalgic for me despite how pretty low in quality they are compared to the other films from each respective franchise. Coming out of fantastic films (IMO) like PREY and ALIEN: ROMULUS, I feel that we're in a better enough place to give a new AVP film a chance! Bring on the same writers, directors and producers from each film in order to perfect characters, scripts, look and feel of both creatures and we can finally make a solid AVP film of the modern era. I feel it's been said enough how boring and uninteresting human characters tend to take up most of the screen time from these films, but if they're written and portrayed in any was as they were in PREY and ROMULUS, I think we'd be in good hands!
If I ever get a chance to write & direct a Alien or Predator film, I'll make sure to take lots of inspirations from Cowboy Bebop, Trigun & Outlaw Star. I'll make each character as interesting or likable as possible to the point it becomes hard to tell who survives.
I never do these, so let’s change it up. Best to worst: Aliens Predator Alien Prey Prometheus Predators Alien Vs Predator Alien 3 Predator 2 (didn’t finish it) Alien Covenant Alien Resurrection (didn’t finish it) Haven’t watched it yet: Aliens Vs Predator: Requiem The Predator Alien Romulus
Of the movies I've seen S: Alien Covenant A: Alien Romulus B:Alien, Aliens (I know I'm gonna get hate for these, but I still like these movies, just not as fantastic as everybody else says) C: Prey, Alien Prometheus D: F: Predator (another unpopular opinion, I just thought this was boring)
I think it's funny how Shane Black starred in and helped do script touch ups on the first Predator, and then directed The Predator. And then Predator 2 is basically Lethal Weapon with an alien, and that's the one that Black, the writer of Lethal Weapon, had no part in
Excellent ranking Sean. Could you add The Terminator franchise to these? I'd put these three in the one set of films to watch, and they have a similar history and subsequent bastardisation, maybe even the Robocop franchise?
Great vid concept Sean. Here is my Alien VS Predator ranking: starting with the movies I didn’t liked: 14. Alien 3. I just can’t get over on those first 5 minutes but as a film I’ll admit that it’s better than some of the movies I have higher on my list. 13. The Predator(2018). One of the most disappointing movies I’ve ever seen. Hated the silly tone. 12. AVP: Requiem. The movie is really dark and I couldn’t see anything in a large portion of it. 11. Alien: Resurrection. Never liked it and I think it’s silly. Now for the movies that are just ok for me: 10. Prometheus. It looks amazing but I didn’t liked the story so much. Also, hated some of the characters and their choices. 9. Alien VS Predator. I like most of it, but hated the fact that it wasn’t R rated. 8. Alien: Covenant. This movie is the definition of Mid for me. The movie looks great but the story is lacking for me. Now for the movies I like: 7. Prey. I like this movie, but not as much as other people. Just solid. 6. Alien: Romulus. I really liked most of it but the callback lines were just awful. 5. Predators. A great movie with some great aspects in my eyes, but I just didn’t care for the last act as I did with the first two. Now for the movies I love: 4. Predator 2. I love this movie and its Lethal Weapon meets Predator tone. I loved Harrigan as the protagonist and I actually prefer the final battle in this one over the OG. 3. Predator. A great movie. I loved everything about it, specially the cast and The Predator. 2. Alien. A classic movie and my favourite 70’s movie ever. A master piece. Loved Ripley and the creature design. 1. Aliens. My favourite sequel of all times. Loved the motherly theme of the movie. The cast is amazing, specially Newt, Hicks, Bidhop and Hudson. Ripley is such a badass in this one and the action is top notch!
I'd rank them 1. Predator 2. Aliens 3. Alien 4. Prey 5. Romulus 6. Predator 2 7. Predators 8. AVP And i haven't seen any others except AVP Requiem, which i would put lower than some of the others i haven't seen
Only big difference, I have Requiem in the middle but that’s cause time/place where I was. The rest is almost the same order. Also, I have a tough time with Prometheus and Covenant. They both seemed off to me. Both okay but change it so they’re not Alien related.
I haven't watched some of the greatest movies in this list but I think Romulus and predators were great movies. Also AVP was almost good as them. Among rest 3, I haven't watched aliens and watched Alien when I was a very small kid.
I’ve always personally preferred the Alien movies. I like the Xenomorph more, I like the spaceship sets more interesting than just the jungle. But if you look at each franchise (removing AvP because it counts for both), Predator only has one bad movie (The Predator). Even that one I still can have fun watching. Alien has more movies that you could consider an outright failure.
This is how I would personally rank the Alien and Predator films together: 1. Prey 2. Predator 3. Alien 4. Aliens 5. Alien: Romulus 6. Predators 7. Prometheus 8. Alien: Covenant 9. Predator 2 10. Alien VS. Predator 11. Alien 3 12. Alien Resurrection 13. The Predator 14. Alien VS. Predator: Requiem
Joss Whedon to me will always evoke "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" - great show, but totally the wrong person to do an Alien film. That said, I rewatched it recently and enjoyed it WAAAAAY more than I ever did before. It was like big-budgeted Alien fanfiction, and I'm into that sorta thing.
S tier alien, aliens, predator, A tier prey, alien Romulus B tier predators AvP C tier Prometheus covenant D tier alien resurrection F tier alien resurrection AvP requiem alien 3
I would say that the only thing I feel The Crow 2024 is missing are interesting villain characters; with the exception of Vincent Rogue, the rest lacked any personality or memorable idiosyncrasies.
S Aliens, Alien, Predator A Prometheus, B Alien vs Predator, Predators, Predator 2 C Alien 3, Alien vs Predator: Requiem, Prey, Alien: Covenant F Alien: Resurrection, The Predator
A controversial take: I think that The Predator (2018) is soooo underrated, it doesn't deserve the hate that it's got over the years. I'm not saying it's a top Predator movie, but I like the approach and have fun every time I watch it.
My hottest take of all time is probably the fact that I like AVP Requiem the most. It’s my guilty pleasure movie. Something about the sheer absurdity of the movie just makes me like it way more than I should. I recognize that the movie is trash, but you know what they say, “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.” Very controversial take, but it’s my opinion! Anyways, great list!
A perfect organism: Alien, Aliens, Predator, Prey Stick Around: Romulus, Predators Can i dream: The Predator, Predator 2, Prometheus Game over man: Resurrection, Covenant ONE UGLY M-FER!: Alien 3
Theres 3 top tier Predator movies (Predator, Predators, Prey)and 3 top tier Alien movies (Alien, Aliens, Romulus) I would say the worse Alien movies (Alien 3, Resurrection, Promethius, Covenant) are way more watchable than the worse Predator movies (Predator 2, The Predator)
1.Alien 2.Alien romulus 3.Aliens 4.Predator 5.prey 6.Promethus 7.covenant And then the others. (Ik ppl are gonna be mad at me for putting romulus over aliens but I like it slight more because it resembles the original a lot better and looks way better)
I know you and fellow Alien 3 haters are gonna kill me when I write this, but here's my ranking: F-Tier: Alien: Covenant and The Predator D-Tier: Alien: Resurrection (the one that's outclassed by its PS1 tie-in game) C-Tier: Prometheus (The lesser of the bad Alien films IMO) B-Tier: Predator A-Tier: Predator 2, Alien 3, and Alien: Romulus S-Tier: OF COURSE it's Alien and Aliens. Haven't seen those awful Aliens versus Predator films, Predators, or Prey yet. But Predators and Prey are meant to be really good. And as for Alien 3, it's one of those movies you either gel with or don't. I gelled with it, but I respect that the director and cast disowned it given all the shit they went through during production. Of the two franchises, I think Predator has the better track record with sequels, but I prefer the spacebound claustrophobia of the Alien mythos.
@@Saltyaf38 Yeah, But I have seen footage of them through reviews from people like Deusdaecon and LittleJimmy385, Alien Theory's 20th anniversary lookback of the first film, and BTS footage courtesy of Amalgamated Dynamics. I will freely admit that of the two Aliens vs. Predator films, Paul W.S. Anderson's first entry is the lesser of two evils, but the Brothers Strause's Requiem is still the unchallenged champion of suck. Curiosity is killing the cat, I will watch them, but I'm dreading the shit out of them. Especially Requiem. Though to be honest, I am hoping that to promote the upcoming Alien Earth TV show that they put out a new collection of all the Alien movies, the AVP films included. What? It's your duty as someone who got into the Alien and Predator universe to watch all of the movies and draw your own conclusions.
@@NebLleb I completely disagree with everything you just said. The first AVP isn't a "lesser of 2 evils" it's just a dumb movie where Aliens and Predators beat the shit out of eachother, which is exactly what it needed to be.
S Aliens Alien Predator Alien Romulus A Prometheus Prey B Alien Covenant Predator 2 C Alien 3 Predators Alien Resurrection Alien vs Predator D The Predator AVP Requiem
I'll always stand by Alien 3 as a good movie. It's the perfect somber and fitting ending to the perfect trilogy. It was supposed to happen this way. Now Resurrection.....that movie belongs in the trash bin with AvP Requiem and The Predator. Such an abomination. Only the underwater scene is worth watching.
I understand your gripes about Alien 3, but putting it in the same tier as AVP Requiem and The Predator - seriously? It's also a much better 'Alien' film than Resurrection, in my opinion. The only other change I would make is I'd bump Prometheus up, but other than that I largely agree with this list.
Man. I get why some people don't like it but putting it with those 3 turd bucket movies is going too far lol. It was my 3rd favorite Alien movie but Romulus has pushed it down to 4th
The fact that both Prey and Romulus were originally straight to streaming is so odd to me when both movies are one of the best movies in each franchise...
Fede Alvarez apparently pitched an idea of co-directing an AVP reboot with Prey director Dan Tractenberg, something I’ve literally been praying for these last few weeks.
I love Alien 3 (in Assembly cut ofc) precisely because you hate it. Sometimes it's #1 for me, depending on the mood. That impending doom atmosphere is unparalleled. Yes, it's supposed to be depressing, aggravating and uncomfortable.

Predator 2 over Covenant Prometheus. Joker wins! 😂
It’s truly crazy watching those franchises expand and develop over the decades and years, it’s like they mutated with the later films and became so unrecognisable, until course corrected by the latest legacy sequels that brought them back to the basics (Prey and Romulus, respectively). That being said, Predators is underrated as hell, I rate it after Predator as the second best in the franchise.
Yeah
1) predator & predators & prey
2) predator 2
99) the predator
Oh, man. Predator 2 is my speed. It's either Predator 2, Predators or Prey as your preferred sequel given that the Yautja have had a better track record than Xenomorph XX121 when it comes to followups. If you don't like Detective Hartigan's battle with the City Hunter, you'll probably prefer Royce's adventures on the game planet. If you find Adrien Brody unbelievable as an action star, than the plight of Naru, who was the first person to make contact with these beasts, will be more your speed.
You really can't go wrong with any of them IMO.
I love how you rank the movies inside the tiers Sean. That way it’s like we’re getting a full ranking and a tier list
For a minute the thumbnail had me in shock 😂
Same
Watching AvP as big budget fan-fiction really does help. I think it’s a really fun movie. The sets look great, the Alien and Predator designs rocked. I really enjoy it for what it is. Requiem was trash though 😂
I think I’d rank them:
1. Alien
2. Aliens
3. Predator
4. Alien Romulus
5. Prey
6. Predators
7. Alien Covenant
8. Prometheus
9. Alien vs Predator
10. Alien Resurrection
11. Alien 3
12. Predator 2
13. The Predator
14. Aliens vs Predator: Requiem
If you add the rankings and divide by the movies
Alien - 66/9 = 7.33
Predator- 62/7 = 8.86
So winning by 1.53 points, Alien is the better franchise (at least in my opinion). Great video Sean!
Why is this literally identical to my ranking?

@@frankthepug9242 It just makes the most sense in my opinion.

@@Whodatandamericasteam hahaha!!! 😂😂😂
Prey and Alien Romulus really set both franchises back to the right direction. Maybe in the future they'll be able to make a movie on the same heights as the first Predator film or the first two Alien films
I think what franchise is better depends on what you like more. If you want more scary and thoughtful horror than alien, if you want a more fun, high paced kinda scary but not really, then Predator
I think I’d have to go:
S Tier: Alien, Aliens, Predator
A Tier: Prey and Romulus
C Tier: Predators, Prometheus, Covenant
D Tier: AVP, Predator 2, Alien 3
F Tier: Resurrection, The Predator, AVP Requiem
As for which is better or which I prefer, I like Predator 1 a lot, but Alien gave me Alien and Aliens. I’ll take those two first.

My boy, Sean, putting in the work this week! Love this tier rankings. Never seen an Alien movie in my life which seems blasphemous when I’m an 80s baby. Then again, I’ve never seen one Police Academy movie in my entire life. I may finally watch an Alien movie this week.
I have seen three Predators movies: OG, Predators, and Prey. That’s probably the only three worth watching to begin with. I think Predators is fantastic and underrated from it’s initial reviews.
I think the only Alien movies I will end up seeing are the first two and Romulus. I don’t have time to watch all 9 movies of it with some overlap with Predator.

Still have sequels to Beetlejuice, Venom, Joker, and Gladiator coming up.
I will give this year for blockbusters about a C+ so far. And for TV only a C as House of the Dragon S2 and The Boys S4 disappointed. Then I hear The Umbrella Academy final season was bad. The Acolyte is trash. Cobra Kai is still only one-third out but feels like they’re stretching it too much.
My favorite movie of the year only has a 6.7 on IMDb and I watched it again last night. That’s Fly Me to the Moon. Love the 1969 vibes it brings. Then it’s probably D&W and Furiosa right after. But most of the movies with the exception of those two, Dune 2, Romulus, and Inside Out 2 had mostly very mediocre sequels.
So far, no movie this decade has given me the joyous feeling that Top Gun: Maverick did back in 2022. That movie felt like a movie made in the 90s for a 90s audience. I rock a Top Gun: Maverick hat from AliExpress and it’s the best hat I got from that site.
I didn’t have that much joy in the theater since seeing Jurassic Park, The Shawshank Redemption, and Face/Off in the theaters. Even Titanic, Revenge of the Sith, The Dark Knight, Infinity War, and Endgame didn’t make me as happy as Top Gun 2 did. That movie reminded us why we go to the theaters in the first place. Was it perfect? No. But it made so many people smile once they left the theater. It was better than it was supposed to be.
I've only seen the first two Alien movies so far, but I'm excited for Romulus! Your review & the overall reception have been reassuring.
It’s really good. It even manages to bring in some of the ideas from the prequel films
I really like the way you described the differentiation between Predator and Predator 2. The first is THE trademark Predator film, whereas in 2 the Predator felt shoehorned in.
Aliens vs Predator: Rectum is the worst piece of shit I have ever seen in my life
😂 I don't think it's that bad but yeah it's not great as a movie. But it does have the most badass predator in it, the Wolf predator 💪🏼 veteran hunter just goin to work 🔥
An alien vs predator movie about rectums would have been a hell of a lot more entertaining than Alien vs predator requiem
You havent seen many bad movies then
I didn't mind it. It kinda felt like AVP shoehorned into a 80's slasher like Halloween, Nightmare on Elms Street or Friday the 13th.
Lmao, that just reminded me of S. Darko @@VarsityAthlete04
The director of Romulus has teased that he may team up with the director of prey for a new AVP movie.
I hope that happens.
I'm putting the Alien prequels in that top tier. Those are the ones I think about the most
Covenant is a straight up horrible movie with an absolute braindead cast😑
I’m not crazy about covenant but Prometheus is My favorite movie in the Alien franchise
Predator 2 is classic 90s cheese. Danny Glover Danny BOOOY. So good. It doesn't get enough love.. Obviously other than that, the best are:
Aliens

Your order of movies is perfect . I cant separate Romulus and Prey at all.

If I ever get a chance to write & direct a Alien or Predator film, I'll make sure to take lots of inspirations from Cowboy Bebop, Trigun & Outlaw Star. I'll make each character as interesting or likable as possible to the point it becomes hard to tell who survives.

Thanks for watching
I think it's funny how Shane Black starred in and helped do script touch ups on the first Predator, and then directed The Predator. And then Predator 2 is basically Lethal Weapon with an alien, and that's the one that Black, the writer of Lethal Weapon, had no part in
Excellent ranking Sean.

One Ugly Mother: The Predator, Alien: Resurrection, AvP: Requim
In alien Antarctica is where the spaceship message control center is. The crew of the nostromo contacts Antarctica early in the film
Predator and Aliens are so freaking Iconic its crazy.
Sean you’re the goat keep it up
Great vid concept Sean.
Here is my Alien VS Predator ranking:
starting with the movies I didn’t liked:
14. Alien 3. I just can’t get over on those first 5 minutes but as a film I’ll admit that it’s better than some of the movies I have higher on my list.
13. The Predator(2018). One of the most disappointing movies I’ve ever seen. Hated the silly tone.
12. AVP: Requiem. The movie is really dark and I couldn’t see anything in a large portion of it.
11. Alien: Resurrection. Never liked it and I think it’s silly.
Now for the movies that are just ok for me:
10. Prometheus. It looks amazing but I didn’t liked the story so much. Also, hated some of the characters and their choices.
9. Alien VS Predator. I like most of it, but hated the fact that it wasn’t R rated.
8. Alien: Covenant. This movie is the definition of Mid for me. The movie looks great but the story is lacking for me.
Now for the movies I like:
7. Prey. I like this movie, but not as much as other people. Just solid.
6. Alien: Romulus. I really liked most of it but the callback lines were just awful.
5. Predators. A great movie with some great aspects in my eyes, but I just didn’t care for the last act as I did with the first two.
Now for the movies I love:
4. Predator 2. I love this movie and its Lethal Weapon meets Predator tone. I loved Harrigan as the protagonist and I actually prefer the final battle in this one over the OG.
3. Predator. A great movie. I loved everything about it, specially the cast and The Predator.
2. Alien. A classic movie and my favourite 70’s movie ever. A master piece. Loved Ripley and the creature design.
1. Aliens. My favourite sequel of all times. Loved the motherly theme of the movie. The cast is amazing, specially Newt, Hicks, Bidhop and Hudson. Ripley is such a badass in this one and the action is top notch!
Here’s my tier list…
Best Of All Time - 1. Aliens
2. Alien
Awesome - 3. Predator
4. Alien 3: Assembly Cut
Great - 5. Prey
6. Alien: Romulus
Good - 7. Prometheus
Okay - 8. Predators
9. Alien: Covenant
Meh - 10. Alien 3: Theatrical Cut
Bad - 11. Predator 2
12. Alien Resurrection
13. The Predator
Awful - 14. Alien vs. Predator
15. Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem
I mostly agree with your list... except Prometheus. I love that movie.
I'd rank them
1. Predator
2. Aliens
3. Alien
4. Prey
5. Romulus
6. Predator 2
7. Predators
8. AVP
And i haven't seen any others except AVP Requiem, which i would put lower than some of the others i haven't seen
Only big difference, I have Requiem in the middle but that’s cause time/place where I was. The rest is almost the same order.
Also, I have a tough time with Prometheus and Covenant. They both seemed off to me. Both okay but change it so they’re not Alien related.
My Ranking of the Alien & Predator Films:
1. Aliens
2. Prey
3. Alien
4. Predator
5. Alien: Romulus
6. Prometheus
7. Alien: Covenant
8. Predators
9. Alien: Resurrection
10. Alien 3
11. Predator 2
12. Alien vs. Predator
13. The Predator
14. Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem
Prey over Predator. That's interesting!
I haven't watched some of the greatest movies in this list but I think Romulus and predators were great movies. Also AVP was almost good as them. Among rest 3, I haven't watched aliens and watched Alien when I was a very small kid.
I’ve always personally preferred the Alien movies. I like the Xenomorph more, I like the spaceship sets more interesting than just the jungle.
But if you look at each franchise (removing AvP because it counts for both), Predator only has one bad movie (The Predator). Even that one I still can have fun watching. Alien has more movies that you could consider an outright failure.
I want another alien versus predator movie that is actually lit properly
And also a very strong R-rating attached to it, as well.
This is how I would personally rank the Alien and Predator films together:
1. Prey
2. Predator
3. Alien
4. Aliens
5. Alien: Romulus
6. Predators
7. Prometheus
8. Alien: Covenant
9. Predator 2
10. Alien VS. Predator
11. Alien 3
12. Alien Resurrection
13. The Predator
14. Alien VS. Predator: Requiem
Sean & Cody say they hate Alien 3 , but they love Terminator Dark Fate: Doesn’t compute!
Joss Whedon to me will always evoke "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" - great show, but totally the wrong person to do an Alien film. That said, I rewatched it recently and enjoyed it WAAAAAY more than I ever did before. It was like big-budgeted Alien fanfiction, and I'm into that sorta thing.
S tier alien, aliens, predator,
A tier prey, alien Romulus
B tier predators AvP
C tier Prometheus covenant
D tier alien resurrection
F tier alien resurrection AvP requiem alien 3
I would say that the only thing I feel The Crow 2024 is missing are interesting villain characters; with the exception of Vincent Rogue, the rest lacked any personality or memorable idiosyncrasies.
S Aliens, Alien, Predator
A Prometheus,
B Alien vs Predator, Predators, Predator 2
C Alien 3, Alien vs Predator: Requiem, Prey, Alien: Covenant
F Alien: Resurrection, The Predator
A controversial take: I think that The Predator (2018) is soooo underrated, it doesn't deserve the hate that it's got over the years. I'm not saying it's a top Predator movie, but I like the approach and have fun every time I watch it.
I think I liked the alien prequels more than Romulus. I'm curious to see more rankings once recency bias is gone in a couple of years.
My hottest take of all time is probably the fact that I like AVP Requiem the most. It’s my guilty pleasure movie. Something about the sheer absurdity of the movie just makes me like it way more than I should. I recognize that the movie is trash, but you know what they say, “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.” Very controversial take, but it’s my opinion! Anyways, great list!
It's like a car crash you can't take your eyes off
Can you do a ranking of all 6 Brad Birds movies

I've always wanted a movie that dives into where the Predators come from and their world. I don't know how we got one for Alien first
*A PERFECT ORGANISM:* "Aliens," "Predator 2," "Predator," "Alien," & "Alien 3."
*STICK AROUND:* "Predators."
*CAN I DREAM?:* "Alien: Resurrection."
*GAME OVER, MAN:* "Alien: Covenant," "Alien vs. Predator," "Prometheus," and "Alien: Romulus."
*ONE UGLY M-FER!:* "The Predator" & "Alien vs. Predator: Requiem."
I've never seen "Prey."
Hey Sean, you should do a video of 5 movies that are worse than Alien 3.
I prefer predator franchise due to the first film. I don't have any attachments to alien franchise compared to predator franchise
I think overall there are more Predator movies that are good/amazing vs the Alien movies.
Theres 3 top tier Predator movies (Predator, Predators, Prey)and 3 top tier Alien movies (Alien, Aliens, Romulus)
I would say the worse Alien movies (Alien 3, Resurrection, Promethius, Covenant) are way more watchable than the worse Predator movies (Predator 2, The Predator)
recently watched the predator films for the first time

I know you and fellow Alien 3 haters are gonna kill me when I write this, but here's my ranking:
F-Tier: Alien: Covenant and The Predator
D-Tier: Alien: Resurrection (the one that's outclassed by its PS1 tie-in game)
C-Tier: Prometheus (The lesser of the bad Alien films IMO)
B-Tier: Predator
A-Tier: Predator 2, Alien 3, and Alien: Romulus
S-Tier: OF COURSE it's Alien and Aliens.
Haven't seen those awful Aliens versus Predator films, Predators, or Prey yet. But Predators and Prey are meant to be really good. And as for Alien 3, it's one of those movies you either gel with or don't. I gelled with it, but I respect that the director and cast disowned it given all the shit they went through during production. Of the two franchises, I think Predator has the better track record with sequels, but I prefer the spacebound claustrophobia of the Alien mythos.
Saying the AVP movies are awful without seeing them is pretty biased.
@@Saltyaf38 Yeah, But I have seen footage of them through reviews from people like Deusdaecon and LittleJimmy385, Alien Theory's 20th anniversary lookback of the first film, and BTS footage courtesy of Amalgamated Dynamics.
I will freely admit that of the two Aliens vs. Predator films, Paul W.S. Anderson's first entry is the lesser of two evils, but the Brothers Strause's Requiem is still the unchallenged champion of suck. Curiosity is killing the cat, I will watch them, but I'm dreading the shit out of them. Especially Requiem. Though to be honest, I am hoping that to promote the upcoming Alien Earth TV show that they put out a new collection of all the Alien movies, the AVP films included.
What? It's your duty as someone who got into the Alien and Predator universe to watch all of the movies and draw your own conclusions.
@@NebLleb I completely disagree with everything you just said. The first AVP isn't a "lesser of 2 evils" it's just a dumb movie where Aliens and Predators beat the shit out of eachother, which is exactly what it needed to be.
For one second I thought Sean was going to say it. 7:51
Everyone's hating on Alien 3, meanwhile it's my favourite in the series.
Yeah you are definitely on an island with that one. I don't hate it but I do think it has a lot of issues.

I'll always stand by Alien 3 as a good movie. It's the perfect somber and fitting ending to the perfect trilogy. It was supposed to happen this way. Now Resurrection.....that movie belongs in the trash bin with AvP Requiem and The Predator. Such an abomination. Only the underwater scene is worth watching.
I understand your gripes about Alien 3, but putting it in the same tier as AVP Requiem and The Predator - seriously? It's also a much better 'Alien' film than Resurrection, in my opinion. The only other change I would make is I'd bump Prometheus up, but other than that I largely agree with this list.
Man. I get why some people don't like it but putting it with those 3 turd bucket movies is going too far lol. It was my 3rd favorite Alien movie but Romulus has pushed it down to 4th
Yeah, I'm a big fan of _Alien 3,_ as well. And it's way better than "Alien vs. Predator: Requiem," "Prometheus," & "The Predator."
The fact that both Prey and Romulus were originally straight to streaming is so odd to me when both movies are one of the best movies in each franchise...
Fede Alvarez apparently pitched an idea of co-directing an AVP reboot with Prey director Dan Tractenberg, something I’ve literally been praying for these last few weeks.

“A perfect organism” love that tier name! 😂
I love Alien 3 (in Assembly cut ofc) precisely because you hate it. Sometimes it's #1 for me, depending on the mood. That impending doom atmosphere is unparalleled. Yes, it's supposed to be depressing, aggravating and uncomfortable.
I really liked Prometheus!
