Red's aside, I love Towhy, Gibson, and Ward's versions. I hope they each get a novelization at some point. Ward's will always hold a special place in my heart. If nothing else, for scaring me into checking the damn toilet.

It sounds to (without having read it) me that Ward's script is so off the wall that it may work well illustrated by...   Sam Kieth.   ;D

Jokes aside, I would love to see any alternate take on my favorite moments in the series.

You've never read Ward's script?

Man, you're in for something nuts. Most insane death by Alien ever.

Twohy's script could use a reworked third act if they adapt it.

Nah, save his ass for Red's script.

The most batshit Alien thing I've ever read, by a country mile.

Twohy's is my favourite of the unmade screenplays, but there's no denying the final act is a total anticlimax.

Human pasta :laugh:

That bit was over-the-top, but admittedly pretty cool. Sadly after that I thought the script ran out of steam a bit. The final showdown with the Newbreed in particular was over before it even began.

I was laughing so hard at the vacuum bit that I had to stop reading for a minute.

Been a while since I've read it, are you talking about
Spoiler
the toilet death...?

"As the Abbot and a 'Bald Tribunal Member' occupy the stalls, an Alien reaches up and yanks the latter down through the hole in the ground, and drags him under the floorboards. The toilet's faucets and lavatories "reject a torrent of gore! Blood and viscera spraying the wall – converting the Abbey into an abattoir.""

You know what, I'd love to see that in live action.  ;D
