Nearly every studio has taken its turn at developing a sci-fi franchise, and while there have been plenty of misses over the years, one of the undeniable hits is Alien. Ridley Scott first launched the sci-fi franchise in 1979 with the release of the first Alien movie starring Sigourney Weaver, who returned seven years later for the equally beloved sequel, Aliens. It makes sense the sequel holds up as well as it does, though, considering it was directed by James Cameron. It wasn’t until 1992 that the release of Alien 3 brought on the first real criticism of the Alien franchise, despite it being directed by David Fincher. Fincher has gone on to produce some of the all-time great movies, like Se7en (starring Brad Pitt) and The Social Network (starring Jesse Eisenberg).
