As a movie, Alien is better.
Aliens is more influential because it’s not a horror but action/thriller with James Cameron’s sentimentality to make it a popcorn flick.
You see a lot of Aliens in things like StarCraft, Starship Troopers etc. Bigger impact on pop culture.

Aliens birthed the Military Sci-Fi genre, before that it was corny phasers and ray guns

Agreed.
Both are masterpieces but somehow Aliens had the edge.

nigga your breath smells like shit, shut your cock holster if you have nothing productive to say.

Introducing tactical thinking to the genre enabled a form of realism to spread throughout all of sci-fi keeping the plot grounded. Before it was: shoot raygun ship blow up. now it's: we don't have x energy output to penetrate x shields

Greatest 1-2 punches of all time in cinema history.

Alien > Aliens
BTTF > BTTF 2
New Hope > Empire
Godfather > Godfather 2
Terminator > T2
Blade Runner > 2049
Batman > Batman Returns

I could go on….

Star Wars did military sci-fi a decade earlier with the Death Star trench run.
