I've seen on-screen comparisons of Aliens bluray to 4k, and whilst it does appear to have been a bit more digitally "scrubbed" it seems to be mainly noticeable on the occasional facial shot, not as bad as True Lies and nowhere near the execrable Terminator 2 4k. I'll find out end of the month when it arrives.
I'll be interested to know what you make of it. For me, True Lies on 4k was an easy choice given that it never got a blu ray release, but my Aliens blu ray is perfectly fine so the talk of the 4k release being a less than ideal transfer gives me pause.

This video lowered my concerns. A bit.

Indeed, spoiled it for me too. The same channel did one of these for the abyss too.
