The ALIEN franchise could use a new story line, but it was butchered with the 4th installation. I mean, why the hell would you bring Ripley back after her death in the 3rd film? I understand she was a "clone", but that is used so much in sequels that it really didnt do any good to have it part of the story. The "newborn" was a really terrible looking creature, also. They should have gone with the whole AvP story back then, before P.W.S.A. got ahold of it, or even done what EVERY PREDATOR FAN wants... PREDATOR 3.
When is fox going to realize there are great stories for this film, and it needs to be made ASAP. Not that they have to make it within the next year, but they have do it right, and get the story where it needs to be... on a different planet.
I just got to thinking. If AvP-R does awesome, and the Bro's pull it off... maybe they should think about making PREDATOR '3', and make it to the scale of '1', or turn it up a notch, and destroy everyones mind by making it totally f'n brutal.
