Quote from: Nightmare Asylum on Jun 27, 2020, 08:32:06 PMMore Aliens post-Alien 3 are fine by me, so long as, by the end of the story, WY has no way left to obtain them. I would personally like to see WY's continued efforts to get their hands on a specimen after the third film ultimately factor in to them shutting down operations entirely, thus opening the door for the USM to swoop in and have no choice but to resort to using Ripley's DNA now that that technology is there.
Quote from: Nightmare Asylum on Jun 27, 2020, 03:18:35 PMAliens: Colonial Marines is hardly indicative of the best way to reboot the franchise. I much prefer the idea that the Derelict was lost when the atmosphere processor exploded. Ripley and company wouldn't have just left LV-426 if it was out of range of the explosion. And, assuming Alien 3 and Alien: Resurrection still count in this hypothetical reboot, Weyland-Yutani (and, eventually, the USM) putting all their stock in Ripley's embryo would be pretty silly if they know that there's just a whole stash of eggs on LV-426.

As long as Ripley's sacrifice is still meaningful. So I hope they don't ignore Alien 3 by still having WY obtain lots of Xenos and all that.

Quote from: Nightmare Asylum on Sep 13, 2020, 02:07:43 PMBut now there's a small part of me almost wondering if Ridley has some alternate Aliens sequel written by Walter Hill that also uses continues David's up his sleeve.
Quote from: Theo PriestleyNo, this is Scott's movie. Neill's was canned a long time ago.
Quote from: T Dog on Sep 13, 2020, 05:20:55 PMMy pitch: Make a sequel to Covenant and a sequel to Resurrection, in the same movie. Ripley 8 travels to a planet where David 8 has been doing his experiments for centuries (or whatever amount of time is necessary for the timelines to converge).

It will also save us from the forced path of the "Alien prequel".
