So, for some one that never saw from the begin to the end of Alien 3 (manage to get see the film in bits, a small part there, another do not know when, etc). What version should I get? The normal one or the "assembly" one (extended that Steed was talking?)
Saw also that's there is a extended version of Aliens, is it better?

ALIENS Directors cut is better as you get to see the colony before they get their backsides kicked and few other scenes are added as well.

ALIEN 3 Extended Cut is longer and better, the birth scene of the Alien is better and Ripley's death scene is cleaned up.

Yes Alien 3 extended cut/assembly cut has a better flowing plot as well less gaps.

I have not seen it years but I have a book Gigers Alien very cool its all artwork from Alien and bits from his journal. An interesting bit the eggs "mouth" the original design looked to much like a (body part that also doubles as a name for a cat) they told Giger to change so he made what you now see. Its a cross he said that Christians won't complain about seeing a cross but they will get upset seeing pu... wrist watch.

Of course he used the shape of the wrist watch and also the rolling pin in much of his work.
