Agree. I kind of liked the "everything has gone to shit" feeling. I felt kind of novel at the time, cant really point to another "summer blockbuster" with that kind of bleak feeling. It was sold as: "This is the last alien movie. Ever. And this time there will be no happy ending" And as a stupid kid I really believed that. It made sense that in the Alien universe, happy endings is just a dream. Of course, that was in the days long before prequels, reboots etc.
