This is really tough for me. Both are giants in their genres. Both are eminently watchable. Godfather has to win, though, even though I might personally like Alien more, because as a piece of art, Godfather is a complete vision that has weathered better than Alien, just by a smidge.

"Alien vs. The Godfather"? dLon't give the studios any ideas! man, the Corleone family would really have to go to the mattresses if Alien declared war on them. i think New York City would give him conniption fits, though. i mean no cabbie would pick him up, no driver would surrender a lane, and jaded Manhattanites would show no fear or respect for the poor creature. they do, however, respect a good-looking mafia boss. no., i think Alien would give up the fight, and like any self-respecting retiree, head to Florida, in this case to Cape Canaveral to find a nice abandoned spaceship.
No contest for me. Alien, while a stylish and well directed flick, is basically a lavish haunted house movie in space. A solid "boo" movie and entertaining but has its moments of tedium. It's no match thematically for The Godfather and the power of its story telling, characters and acting.

Alien wins for sure, Godfather sucks because its too booring and slow. Alien does still have its popularity while Godfather has gone pretty amode. Alien have also far better acting and action. AND I HATE Godfather, Godfather is nothing but some old booring trash piece of shit. Alien wins here big time.
I never really understood people calling The Godfather boring, it isn't at all. I found Alien to be more boring than The Godfather to be honest. I do actually like Alien though, just nowhere near as much as I like The Godfather.
Looking back on this, I'm definitely going with Alien. If it were Alien versus Godfather Part 2, that would be a bit different.
Alien
Both are classics, but The Godfather is the winner.

The Godfather for sure.
Yesterday
As Ridley Scott himself said, Alien is nothing more than a dressed up B movie. Personally, I think its a bit boring.
