Both are great films, without a doubt. I'm giving Aliens the edge for the Bill Paxton one-liners.
Well, 'Aliens' had Bill Paxton & Michael Biehn. 'Alien' didn't...

Before i would have said Aliens by a mile, but since seeing the Original in the theaters im not so sure. Alien is definatly scarier and more of a horror movie, aliens is definitily more of an action flick, you gotta love that queen tho, she owns bishop lol.

My point of view on this issue I'm afraid was slightly spoiled through no fault of my own, you see, unfortunately, I saw Aliens about three years before I even knew of the existence of Alien...When I saw Alien eventually, I'm like, "shit...there's only one!?!"....see my problem there? Either way, I was pretty young when I first saw both, and THEN Aliens seemed better, you know, for the young guy I was, lots of guns, lots of aliens ripping the shit outta ppl....However, I have to say that NOW, I think Alien was the scarier of the two, heaps more suspense, I'd call IT a horror, Aliens, I would call an action film.
Love them both, but I don't think they are even in the same league really...

Personaly I think that the original Alien had the horror element down, but Aliens was very entertaining, fast moving, and had more action. I can't really decide, their both two of my favorite movies of all time.

Alien is better, but Aliens is more of a 'fun' movie.

Both had very different elements to them like Alien being very mysterious and wouldnt show much of the creature until the end but Aliens, much like many other sequels of movies with creatures like Alien and Jeepers Creepers, was in your face just pure action. Plus action is just Camerons style.
To actually answer the question, lol, ALiens is my fave but i wish Jonesy had more of a part of in it.
