Lucky you.

I have a feeling they're going to release this for the 30th anniversary of Aliens.  I mean it could come out before 2016 but still as a 30th anniversary tie-in.  I really hope we give James Cameron's masterpiece the celebration it deserves.

I expect a new limited edition Bluray release with some new features like additional commentaries plus the full reunion footage.  Some promotional material for the new true sequel would be great too...

Hell, i'm employed and couldn't dare spend that much all at once.

I just spent $200 on an AVPR Inkworks Master Trading Card Set, so I can't spend $$ for awhile now.

[Corporal Hicks]

What was in that?

[HuDaFuK]

locusta, I notice from those new images there are a few pullout tidbits inside (Space Beast, whatever that burnt sheet of paper is). Are you able to say if they will be in the standard version, or are the y exclusive to the Collector's Edition?

I really hope we give James Cameron's masterpiece the celebration it deserves.

Lolwut?

This book isn't about Aliens. It's about the franchise as a whole. You know, those four films we have currently? It covers all of them, Alien 3 and Resurrection included, plus a bit more besides.

Not to mention Aliens gets plenty of credit as it is.

I'd be 100% willing to buy the book- but I'm afraid it'll say some B.S like "The crossbreed Aliens are more intelligent" or Bishop in Alien3 is an android- or even worse, they tie in AVP and ACM as Canon, or that recent awful novel trilogy.

If someone could guarantee me it has none of these qualities then I'd buy it otherwise the whole thing's a waste.

[Xenomrph]

I wanna know who would spend $325 for ONE book.  Unless they have a steep discount available, I can't even touch that price.

I bought some of Giger's books for about that. Each.

Were they signed by him?

If not, why were they so expensive?

Or you could just download it illegally like you do with movies, right?

I only download shit movies to laugh at them.

This hasn't even been seen by most of the general public and isn't a film.

Comeon kids - I can see the dig here and it's not appreciated.

I'm curious too. Why the high price?

[Corporal Hicks]

Enough. Now.

Son of Kane has been spoken to, warned and the offending posts removed. It is done.

[Ultramorph]

Yeah, I honestly don't understand why the book is so expensive. Even when the regular edition comes out, it'll still probably be $50. I'll wait a few months until I can find a used copy for a few bucks on Amazon Marketplace.  Fox/Dark Horse got over $100 out of me for all those Fire and Stone issues, I've shown my support.
