I think an good argument can be made that the first one is the best, but I agree, the second one is my favourite.

Some people will say the first film because it was essentially the first of it's kind, and I can agree to an extend, but I feel like Aliens capitalized on everything.

Aliens is perfect... yes, PERFECT. 
 
I know every line, every shot of that movie like the back of my hand. I used to play it out in my mind on a regular basis to pass the time at highschool. 
 The tension building of the first hour, James Horners score... the "get away from her you bitch " faceoff 
 
PERFECT!

Alien = 9.5
Aliens = 9.0
Alien 3 = 7.0
Alien Resurrection = 4.0
Alien vs Predator = 3.0
Alien vs Predator Requiem = 2.5
 
That is how I would rate them.

Aliens, for me, followed by Alien. Everything else is just a lot of disappointment and I haven't seen all of the rest of the series.

Definitely the best in the series!!

Alien is the better movie. There's no arguing that.
 
But Aliens is still great, and far more quotable.
 
Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man?
