I recently bought the Alien Anthology Blu-ray and Prometheus. I plan on watching them all before Alien: Covenant comes out. But each movie has some sort of directors cut and i was wondering which version of each movie i should watch? I know already that i should watch the theatrical for Alien and the DC for Aliens but i'm not sure about the other two and as far as i'm aware Prometheus has no special edition.

Don't fuck around, go full theatrical

Catch up with extended cuts later, all these films got it spot-on first time, that's why they're so popular

Except Resurrection which is just shit

I don't remember Alien director's cut changing a lot, except for one scene that may end up feeling a little odd after seeing the other movies.

Aliens Special Edition adds some important dialogue that flesh out the characters and their motivations. But IMO some of the scene additions end up hurting the suspense/pacing of the story.

Alien 3 is a weird one. The theatrical cut and assembly cut are almost two different movies. Most of the time I hear people preferring assembly cut, but I personally have a soft spot for theatrical cut (I disliked the movie when I first saw it though, and I grew to like it much later).

Alien 4: again, I don't remember the extended version changing much. But this movie sucks and I haven't watched it in a long time; it's possible I may have forgotten stuff.

So basically if I were you, I think I'd just watch the theatrical cuts, and then go for the special editions/director's cuts after that. In my opinion both are worth seeing, at least in the case of movies 2 and 3 (it's not as important with the other two).

If the 40 new minutes are anything like the rest of the movie it might not be a good thing.

Aliens directors cut shows the story of what happened to the colony and shows the auto gun scene which I loved.
