QuoteSmart guy he is ;D couldn't deliver the alien movie he was saying he would create ''as good as Cameron's alien2'' and so he trowed his gun down and left.

That makes him a smart man...and an incredible coward.

Especially after comments like "Cameron set the stone with Aliens, i'm not going to let that sit on me!"

it was meant as irony....that's what i mean...you tell to all you gonna make a movie same or even better than alien 2 and suddenly you quit?

that means that he was bullshiting us back then...he had nothing good in his hands and just talked empty words.

That letter in the Anthology went from a totem of hope and anticipation to a relic of broken promises and disappointment in no time flat.

I think I'll frame it.

He must've had an inkling of whether or not he was making Prometheus or the Alien prequel by that point ... long hyped films don't turn in other films over night. Grr, I feel like I was cast in a legendary sci-fi film only to be cut out at the last minute due to time and money issues.

Ironically if Carl Rinsch had remained onboard as director we would like of had an Alien Prequel by now.

Johnny Handsome

So in the end of the day, FOX actually is the one to blame  :D

Vulhala

Nothing new there then  :laugh:

Actually, if Lindelof of LOST hadn't come onboard, we'd likely have an Alien movie [I don't buy Harvest, by the way. Smells like a crock].

So close. So damn close.

What I don't get is why all these production designers, artists etc have written on Twitter very recently that they are joining the "Alien Prequel", and then Giger coming onboard only last month... there was nothing to suggest it was going to be anything other than that. Even the Vulture website was right about the lead character name in their news posts.

I feel pretty cheated.

Johnny Handsome

I really do think it was a last minute decision.

I love Ridley and many of his movies...and tbh i think alien 1 is 0.0001% better than alien 2  BUT
As i said before he realized he couldn't deliver....so left as a coward.
Think of it...its the only man that could say: ''people this is canceled''.
Fox would never tell him to cancel the project if he still wanted to do it.
They told him to cut the budget and the man reacted...we would know if it was Fox's decision or someone else's than Ridley's.


I bet he told Fox he has a ''better idea '' for a movie based on the alien prequel that will bring more money too...a scifi that wouldn't be just for alien fans....and Fox who cares for $$$ only agreed.

That's why,while all were ready 4 this movie production designers, artists etc now look like--->  :O

I REALLY CANT THINK OF ANOTHER EXPLANATION   ???

I'll say it again....were being deliberately led off course....I think this film is still a prequel in a hidden forn.
