    lol I've seen Aliens, Alien Resurrection, and even AvP but never the first one. I don't know what's wrong with me.

    never seen any of the aliens movies. read the book, which was enough for me. i do not like things with a horror bent to them, and aliens certainly qualifies. besides that, anything to do with giger... just no.

    Why would you read the Alien books? I hear they make the SW EU look like Jane Austen's letters to Santa Clause.

    If you don't mind me asking, is their a particular reason for that? There's plenty of excellent offerings out there, wonderful films that you're missing out on.

    Yeah, I'm one of those people. Plus, witha lot of horror movies, you figure most, if not all the cast is probably going to die, and I like to root for/invest in characters, so it's hard to do that in a type of genre film like horror where you know "don't start caring/hating them too much, they're likely a goner."

    The only reason I went with The Hunger Games instead of any of the mass number of horror movies I will likely never see, is that I figured I had a higher chance of more people having seen The Hunger Games.

    just not my cup of tea, basically. don't like the "fear" aspect of it, or the typical gore/disgusting stuff in it.

    as to why i read the book, curiosity, but that was what it was limited to. and it was only the first one, had no desire to read the others after.

    I'm not a fan of gore for the sake of gore. There are definitely some horror movies that I enjoy but not the genre as a whole. That done of these movies are incredibly gory and still get a happy ending seems a but strange to me. I have the same problem with action movies tho - bridges must be the least safe place in the world with the highest likelihood for explosion.

    Yeah, I'll be honest, I've never been one for horror and gore - regardless the setting - which is why I've never been compelled to see Alien. Curiously enough, I saw and loved Aliens because of the whole space marine vs. space monsters angle. I will get around to see its predecessor someday, hopefully.
