6 Tongal Alien 40th Anniversary films,
Alien: The Blueprints,
Alien 40th Anniversary Documentary,
Alien Isolation Novelisation,
Aliens Dust To Dust,
William Gibson's ALIEN 3
& Cold Iron Forge's Alien Videogame.
Far from a dead franchise.
Also Titan Books will be making another Aliens and Predator anthologies.
Indeed. As long as it continues on in the EU, I'll be happy enough if the theatrical stuff goes into hibernation for a bit.

hicks this is the your quote i was talking about......
"In my opinion, and from what it's felt like watching the film and tracking everything these past few years, it's attempts to pander to all the complaining online that seems to have made a mess of this film."
don't know if you were just upset that day bud, but considering you singled me out and this was your reply, it did rather feel like passive aggressiveness and pointing fingers at people who were rightly critical and negative. So caring for your character and standing up for it is now complaining? maybe fox should actually listen to what the predator community want, rather than throwing in absolutely terrible plot devices and generic nonsense, all in the hope of "keeping it fresh"
You said why you felt it was a mess, I merely responded and said what I felt had contributed towards it being a mess. If you want to take that on your own shoulders, that's your own doing, but it was in no way an attack on you.
Quoteshane black essentially made a parody, and while i disagree with cornmeal, actually i think we should maybe of made our voices heard by posting the script, it might very well of forced them back to the drawing board.
Again, I have to say no it wouldn't have. There was plenty of complaining online from the moment some of those details leaked. All posting that script would have done is brought potential legal actions towards whoever did leak it.
Fans don't know what they want. Fandoms aren't unified voices. The louder ones may think they are the sole speakers for fandoms but that's simply not true. What one person may like, another wont. Comedy is a prime example. The humor and the Loonies is something that is mostly being praised in these reviews and you don't want it.
That's fine. But it doesn't make you or people who share that opinion any more right or wrong than those who disagree with you and to pretend otherwise it arrogant.
But can we stop attacking each other for opinions or presuming we're right on subjective opinions? That's not what I come here to deal with.
