One more Scott prequel, AVP 3, Blomkamp film, sequel to Resurrection or Reboot?

Another from Ridley so we can have some closure to his story. After that I'll watch whatever comes.

Are people forgetting that Chappie only made 102 mil worldwide?  That's less than Alien Covenant. (Chappie had a budget of 49 mil, so it still made less profit)

There is no chance of Blomkamp's Alien being made.

[SM]

Chappie's box office is neither here nor there.  Directors have film tank and still manage to get work.  Look at Riddles last ten  years.  Only The Martian and Prometheus are what you would called 'hits'.

[Local Trouble]

Hell, look at M. Night Shyamalan.

[SM]

Most of his movies do pretty well financially.

[SiL]

And when they didn't the budgets he had dropped like a stone, but he's built himself back up.

You're only as good in hollywood as your last outing.  Unless you're a bigwig like Ridley Scott who created two successful franchises and many successful films over 40 years.

That's why Blomkamp is confined to doing short films now, he can't get work in hollywood anymore.

I'd like one more Ridley Scott prequel that delivers on the promise of Prometheus. I love Prometheus. It was everything that the series needed to be refreshed and reinvigorated, and promised an even more mind-bending and spectacular sequel. But Covenant was the most disappointing movie of my entire life, bar none. I was crushed and feel betrayed. And I would argue that it was also a colossal miscalculation in terms of story, in addition to betraying the sequel promise of Prometheus. One more Ridley Scott prequel would be welcome, but provided that it drops the Alien prequel angle and does something original like Prometheus did.

By your logic, Why Ridley Scott works so much if his movies are bombs?.

[SM]

My logic is 'Directors have film tank and still manage to get work.'

Do try and keep up.

I didn't say Ridley's films 'bomb'.  You did.

Agreed.

[Gash]

Another from Ridley. After that I'm probably done, unless the director is interesting. I could watch a HBO series about the duplicitous shenanigans of Weyland Yutani though.

[whiterabbit]

Put me down for one more Ridley Scott prequel-sequel.

Doesn't work that way.

Lolnope, Fox offered him The Gone World to direct. It's his next big sci-fi feature film. It's based on a as yet unpublished novel by Tomas Sweterlitsch and from several reports so far is absolutely amazing. Blomkamp will write the screenplay and direct it.

Always good to check one's facts first before spouting drivel.

Really want to see Scott finish the prequels as a trilogy.
