The wasted opportunity with ACM still hurts the feels today... No ending to the story.

Isolation won't even get a sequel... due to lackluster sales. No ending to Amanda's story either...

And now Covenant and it's sequels are at risc.

A lot of ends that need to be closed. I can forget ACM's ending, but Isolation and Covenants? No way! That screams for continuation!

So far the public isn't invested enough in this Renaissance so it seems.

Which is a fcking shame.

Well with Isolation there is always the hope that Dark Horse do it as a comic series.

What is the ending to ACM Though? never played it so

Hicks, Winters etc fly off and Bishop has everything apparently. They were about to screw over the company or something.

Well I could care less about Aliens Colonial Marines.....

However I am truly bummed about Alien Isolation not getting a sequel. I 100% blame the Games Journalism reviewers for that. Especially IGN.

The same journalists praised Resident Evil 7 - which was made in the same vein - to high heavens.

By the way Gamespot's Kevin vanOrd was also full of shit in his 6.0/10 review, not only because I disagree with him but because he totally missed the point of the whole game. Worse, he gave the same score to Thief, which was objectively a BROKEN game.

Reading the little blurb for Alien, Fox should condense those two films into one final three hour film, and after that let's see what happens.

Though, at least this shows Fox hasn't cut their losses like certain podcasters are reporting.

This is all Alien 3's fault. Fox fumbled the ball with that movie and it has NEVER RECOVERED.

It's tough to even count Prometheus because it doesn't have Alien in the title and is a spin off.

So.....How in the hell was Ridley Scott gonna start  work on Alien: Covenant 2 next year when he has 2 other movies to make????

Also I highly doubt there was ever gonna be 2 more movies for this Prequel Trilogy.

By the way this is one of a few articles that have popped up within the last hour. I think this story is catching wind now.

Bloody disgusting also made an article though they got some of their facts wrong such as the year Prometheus was released. In addition, mention box office number losses without mentioning the budget for both films and comparing them.

Like I've mentioned before, Fox will tell Scott lets condense these two film into one final three hour film and move on.


BishopShouldGo

Lol Fox will NOT be letting Ridley make ANY three hour Alien movie.

None of this surprises me at all. My guess is that the whole gang is negotiating and the end result will be one more movie. And no; it's not gonna be three hours long.
