I’m actually of the minority who prefers Alien to Aliens. I actually never bothered to fully watch Alien 3 because I heard it was bad and I didn’t want to ruin my enjoyment of the first two. Is it worth giving another try?
Alien 3 was kind of terrible, but it seems less so in light of the dross that followed it. Fincher is a good director, but he got screwed over by studio execs when making it.
