Q.E.D.
I’m so bored I might as well be listening to Pink Floyd
Anything by Tolkien -> Anything by David Eddings
Ironically, Eddings' stuff is far better for kids than anything by Tolkien, who originally wrote The Hobbit for kids. That's about as far as it goes, though.

I shall wait for a Kermode review
Running Man vs Manhunt I'd allow (both good, but the latter is a better film).
Heat is pretty much a remake of LA Takedown.
I'd like to add the American version of Ring. I thought it was much better than the original. Which was much better than the book.
But I'm never sure if it was environmental or the film... Was House sitting for a friend... Who has 4 black cats... One of whom jumped on be during one of the quiter tenser scenes. Damn near shat myself. So the film sticks in my mind as scary.
Resurrection was not bad and I think if it had been a generic space monster film rather than having the Alien franchise baggage it would have been better received. Apart from the awful human birth alien bit at the end.
Still, no matter how bad the faults, it was still far better than Prometheus. That was awful. That is actually lower on my list than AvP: REQUIEM or the sequel to Starship Troopers.

I quite liked Alien 3. Resurrection reminded me too much of the French & Saunders sketch.

I dislike this because alien 3 gets a bum rap. It's a much better sequel to Alien than Aliens was (Alien is a horror that happened to be in space. Aliens was a sci-fi action film that happened to have the same type of monster. They're utterly different films. Alien 3 was still a tense horror that happened to be on another world - in two films it's about the horror, and the setting / monster is hardly relevant, and the other film is about the sci-fi action and the monster is irrelevant).
I like Blomkampf and his work, but I think it a shame to ignore a good story and delete it from the Canon because you liked a half dead soldier and a little girl.
The Wicker Man, Rollerball, Get Carter, Planet of the Apes, Italian Job, The Omen. Not seen the remake of I Spit on your Grave, but I remember the original being bad enough (watched as a teenager)! I predict a wave of banned horror movie remakes next, Cannibal Holocaust anyone?
It's the one in the series that teenagers like. Nowt wrong with that of course but it ranks 3rd in the list behind Alien and Alien3.

I also much prefer the Director's Cut of Aliens. It's paced much better imo.
