Title: Aliens (1986)

The pace has quickened over the original, includes a lot more action while maintaining plenty of engaging and suspenseful scenes.

How does Aliens compare to the original? Better, worse, same?

So good. I can't even pick a favorite between this and the first, they're apples and oranges.

While Crash might not be able to choose (and I know that choosing between two great movies can be an unenviable position), I find Aliens all-around a more solid film.

Alien does a lot of things right, and I rate it pretty highly, but Aliens changes directions beautifully and it works out to it's benefits. It may not have the entirely same feel of suspense that the first has, but it more than makes up for it.
