I absolutely loved Alien the first time I saw it, which was about 5 years ago (I was born in the late 80's, so obviously I missed the big premier of it). and I did not see Aliens till about a year later. I have to say that it is one of my all time favorite sequels, it's every bit as good as the first one, the characters and storyline are engaging, and leave you at the edge of your seat. I put it up there with Terminator 2, and the Borne movies as an excellent sequel, they just don't make them like this anymore! Would love to see a sequel to a movie today that has the same thought and creativity put into it as the older sequels did. I think around 1991 they just stopped trying.
